Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Dual‐Channel Interdigitated Aptamer‐Based Sensors for Rapid Small‐Molecule Detection in Biofluids

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
An electrochemical aptamer sensing chip employs dual interdigitated electrodes and selective self‐assembled monolayer removal to convert small‐molecule recognition into robust “signal‐off/on” responses. This dual‐channel signal conversion minimizes background noise and accelerates probe diffusion, enabling rapid (as fast as 5–30 min), low‐volume ...

Eco‐Friendly Aqueous Polymeric Binders for High‐Performance Graphite Anodes: Structure–Property Insights for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) is commonly used as a binder material in the preparation of anode or cathode electrode slurries for commercial Li‐ion batteries (LIBs). High‐cost PVdF binder generally requires the use of toxic and environmentally unfriendly N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent for dissolution.

Evaluation of population densities of the common wolf spider Pardosa agrestis (Araneae: Lycosidae) in Hungarian alfalfa fields using mark-recapture

European Journal of Entomology, 2000
The absolute population density of adult Pardosa agrestis (Westring, 1862), the dominant epigeic spider species in many arable lands in Central Europe, was quantified in two alfalfa fields using a multiple mark-recapture method.

‘Self’ and ‘othering’ as a byproduct of large‐scale assessment: An investigation into the Gaokao retake policy

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract While Gaokao, the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE), has been extensively discussed outside the Chinese academic circle, the retake policy of the test has not received much attention. Moreover, Gaokao research in China has predominantly examined the effectiveness of the retake decision in relation to students' demographic ...
