Considering their distribution, thickness, and complexity around the margins of the Quaternary ice-sheets in the Northern Hemisphere, loess sequences can be considered as one of the best records of global environmental changes on the continents.

Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function
Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Abstract Ductular reactions (DRs) are dynamic and complex multicellular responses that occur as a result of various hepatic injuries. Precise identification and quantification of the extent of DRs is a cornerstone of pre‐clinical modelling of liver disease, with links to inflammation, fibrosis, regeneration, and disease severity.

From an agronomic perspective, the most important property of soil aggregates is their stability. The stability of the soil structure can vary greatly, even over a short time.

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited
Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

Abstract In oncology drug development, measuring drug concentrations at the tumor site and at the targeted receptor remains an ongoing challenge. Positron emission tomography (PET)‐imaging is a promising noninvasive method to quantify intratumor exposure of a radiolabeled drug (biodistribution data) and target saturation by treatment doses in vivo ...

ABSTRACT Objectives To identify potential risk factors – among maternal factors, pre‐eclampsia (PE)‐specific biomarkers and estimated risks derived from the first‐trimester Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) triple test – that are associated with the subsequent development of preterm PE, and to evaluate predictors of any‐onset PE using time‐to‐event ...

Loess and Quaternary deposits in the Trebbia area (Piacenza)
Loess deposits at the Apennine fringe lie on the of terraces cut into early-Middle Pleistocene continental deposits. They cover both strongly rubified vetusols and strips of erosional surfaces (piedmont glacis).
