Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

This paper discusses a new model concerning the precipitation mechanismand significance of anhydrite cement in tight sandstone. Anhydrite cement ismainly formed by the dissolution and reprecipitation of early‐diageneticcalcite cements, feldspars and volcanic rock fragments at the mesodiageneticstage.

Human perception of symmetry, raw material and size of Palaeolithic handaxes. [PDF]
It has often been assumed that handaxes were crafted and used primarily by adult males (Hawkes et al. 1997; Kohn & Mithen 1999; Niekus et al. 2012). However, there is no clear scientific or ethnographic evidence to support this.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Chronic wounds, including diabetic foot, venous, and pressure ulcers, remain a major unmet medical challenge due to their prevalence, severity, and the limited efficacy of current treatments. These wounds are inherently multifactorial, requiring simultaneous intervention across all chronicity‐inducing factors.

Abstract Accretionary complexes are key archives of subduction zone processes, preserving records of forearc growth, deformation, and tectonic reorganization. The Chugach–Kodiak accretionary complex of southern Alaska records Jurassic to Cretaceous underplating at shallow to intermediate subduction conditions. The McHugh Complex, an imbricated sequence

The Horton Site (41CP16) on Big Cypress Creek in the East Texas Pineywoods [PDF]
The Horton site (41CP16) is primarily a Late Paleoindian (ca. 10,000 years B.P.) to ancestral Caddo site (ca. post-A.D. 800), although there is a small mid-19th-early 20th century component as well. This site is on an upland slope (320-350 ft. amsl) that

Moderate‐severity disturbances often leave legacy effects on surviving trees. We conceptualized the legacy effect as a shift in ecological memory (quantified by sensitivity, length, and temporal pattern) and quantified the legacy effect of drought and intentional fire on tree growth.
