Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

Assessing the performance of protective winter covers for outdoor marble statuary: pilot investigation [PDF]
Outdoor statuary in gardens and parks in temperate climates has a tradition of being covered during the winter, to protect against external conditions. There has been little scientific study of the environmental protection that different types of covers ...

Abstract This article examines the Yeditepe Biennial—Turkey's first Islamic and traditional arts biennial—as a creative festival shaped by the socio‐political and spatial dynamics of Turkish‐Islamist nationalism. Counterposed against the Istanbul Biennial and the Western‐oriented secular cultural legacy of the Turkish Republic, the Yeditepe Biennial ...

Textured Piezoelectric Ceramics Printed With Baffled Nozzles
To better align platelet particles in additively manufactured textured ceramics, baffled nozzles were simulated and tested. The simulation included a novel CFD heuristic that considers the entire print path. Printed parts were characterized via microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and electromechanically and results were compared to the simulation, finding ...

ABSTRACT Below the classical fortress of Samikon at the coast of the western Peloponnese, ancient writer Strabo mentioned a sanctuary of Poseidon which served as the centre of the religious association of the Triphylian cities. In this paper, we describe the discovery and investigation of a building structure by means of geophysical and ...

Open Ended Systems, Dynamic Bisimulation, and Tile Logic
The SOS formats ensuring that bisimilarity is a congruence often fail in the presence of structural axioms on the algebra of states. Dynamic bisimulation, introduced to characterize the coarsest congruence for CCS which is also a (weak) bisimulation ...

Two new species of Waiparaconus (Octocorallia) of the enigmatic Family Waiparaconidae
Abstract Waiparaconus, a Late Cretaceous to early Cenozoic fossil, was long interpreted as a pedunculate cirripede, but is now tentatively placed in the Pennatuloidea (Order Scleralcyonacea, Class Octocorallia). New material from the Snow Hill Island Formation (lower Maastrichtian) at Vega Island, Antarctica is described and specimens from the Gingin ...

Abstract In many areas of active faulting, the continuity of normal faults with short or incomplete historical earthquake records and more subdued topographic expressions is not fully understood and consequently the seismic potential of these faults is often underestimated.
