Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Surface Roughness of the Chang’E-6 Lunar Samples and Landing Site from Submicrometer to Kilometer Scales: Implications for Lunar Surface Processes and Remote Sensing Data Modeling

The Astronomical Journal
Although lunar surface roughness was studied extensively above micrometer scales before, it has not been investigated at smaller scales. In this study, we used an atomic force microscope to measure surface elevations of the Chang’E-6 lunar samples at ...

The Production Population of Impact Craters in the Chang’E-6 Landing Mare

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The Chang’E-6 mission accomplished the first sample return from the lunar farside. Earlier crater population measurements estimated the model age of the landing mare to range from the Eratosthenian to Late Imbrian, both of which are underrepresented by ...

The Strategic Role of Sustainability Certifications: A Multi‐Theoretical Framework and Comparative Analysis in the Global Wine Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability certifications are increasingly embedded in the governance and competitiveness of the wine sector, yet their strategic role remains under‐theorised. This study conceptualises certifications as multidimensional strategic mechanisms and conducts a comparative analysis of 50 schemes used in the global wine industry.

Surface Roughness of the Chang’E-5 and Chang’E-6 Lunar Samples: Implications for the Microscopic Processes Shaping the Lunar Surface

The Planetary Science Journal
 Although lunar surface roughness was studied extensively above micrometers before, it has not been investigated at smaller scales. In this study, we measured the surface topography of the Chang’E-5 and Chang’E-6 lunar samples by using atomic force ...

Evolution of the Lunar Magnetic Field

Space: Science & Technology
The Moon currently lacks a global magnetic field; however, both paleomagnetic analyses of lunar rock samples and orbital magnetic measurements indicate that it once possessed a core dynamo.

Physical Characterization of Moon Impactor WE0913A

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023
On 2022 March 4, the object known as WE0913A crashed into the Moon after several close flybys of the Earth and the Moon in the previous three months. Leading up to impact, the identity of the lunar impactor was up for debate, with two possibilities: the ...

Equilibration in the aftermath of the lunar-forming giant impact [PDF]

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2007
Simulations of the moon-forming impact suggest that most of the lunar material derives from the impactor rather than the Earth. Measurements of lunar samples, however, reveal an oxygen isotope composition that is indistinguishable from terrestrial samples, and clearly distinct from meteorites coming from Mars and Vesta.

Intuition or Rationality? A Revised Knowledge‐Attitude‐Behaviour Framework in Sustainable Consumer Behaviour

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper provides a revised knowledge–attitude–behaviour (KAB) framework to explain sustainable consumption. Drawing on the dual‐process perspective, the study investigates how intuitive and rational cues shape the translation of objective product knowledge into sustainable attitudes and consumption.

Lunar Crustal Magnetization Sourced via the Delivery of Iron-rich Ejecta from Basin-forming Impacts

The Planetary Science Journal
The reason for the prevalence of crustal magnetic anomalies within a lunar crust composed of materials that do not retain strong magnetization remains an unresolved question in lunar science.
