Stand Age, Standard Retention Density and Site Conditions as Drivers of Shoot Biomass Accumulation in Mediterranean Oak Coppices

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean oak coppices represent an important fuelwood resource in Central Italy, but management decisions are often constrained by limited quantitative evidence on the relative importance of stand development, standard retention, site conditions, and climate in driving shoot biomass accumulation.

Plant Trait‐ and Soil‐Mediated Responses of Herbaceous Aboveground Biomass Across Community Types Along a Degradation Gradient in the Desert Steppe

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grassland degradation profoundly alters the structure and function of desert steppe ecosystems. However, the responses of herbaceous aboveground biomass (Herb‐AGB) to degradation across different plant community types and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Experimental and Comparative Study of the Corrosion Behavior of Lean Duplex Stainless Steel in Seawater

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The localized corrosion behavior of lean duplex stainless steel EN 1.4062 is systematically compared with austenitic and higher‐alloyed duplex grades in natural seawater. A clear resistance ranking is established, highlighting EN 1.4062 as a cost‐effective alternative for limited marine exposure.

Balancing Chain Transfer Agent Transport and Reaction in Emulsion Polymerization

open access: yesMacromolecular Reaction Engineering, EarlyView.
The interrelationship between chain transfer agent mass transfer and reaction in emulsion polymerization is examined. Three parameters describing these phenomena are proposed. The probability of mass transfer‐ rather than reaction‐limitation for each CTA‐monomer pair is assessed.

Optical Detuning Strategies for Shielded Loop Resonators

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To compare detuning performance and evaluate power requirements of optical detuning methods and to demonstrate feasibility of an optically‐detuned 4‐channel receive array. Methods Four optical detuning methods were compared in simulations, bench tests, and phantom measurements at 3T against conventional galvanic detuning.
