Multi-Pattern Characteristics and Driving Mechanisms of Mixed Land Use: A Case Study of Changsha’s Built-Up Areas, China

open access: yesLand
Mixed land use (MLU) plays a pivotal role in promoting compact and sustainable urban development. This study examines Changsha’s built-up areas using the Place2vec model and Point of Interest (POI) data to identify MLU patterns.

Reuse of Agriculture Drainage Water in a Mixed Land-Use Watershed

open access: yesAgronomy, 2018
Water demand in Korea has triggered the need for fresh water to be used for agriculture. Agricultural drainage water (ADW) is a way of coping with the growing demand for fresh water for agriculture.

Land-Use Mixing and Suburban Mobility [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
SUBURBAN traffic congestion has emerged as one of the most pressing problems in the transportation field today and, most probably, will hold center stage in the transportation policy arena for years to come. Most accounts link the suburbanization of congestion to the suburbanization of jobs during the 1980s.1 Indeed, recent surges in suburban office ...

Pan2‐Pan3 Complex‐Mediated Deadenylation Enforces mRNA Quality Control for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Discovery that deadenylation, rather than transcription, acts as the rate‐limiting step for developmental timing in a plant pathogen. Evidence that P‐body integrity and mRNA decay are mechanistically coupled to rapid cellular differentiation under environmental stress. Identification of Pan2‐Pan3 as a pathogen‐specific “meta‐virulence factor” absent in

A Framework to Assess Returns on Investments in the Dryland Systems of Northern Kenya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Governments need quantitative assessments of the outcomes of proposed investments so they can weigh the merits of each option. Without these, there is a risk that some proposed changes could in fact reduce rather than increase benefits to the economy and

Mitigating Electrochemical Isolation in Ni‐Rich Layered Cathodes for Durable Solid‐State Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Electrochemical isolation of Ni‐rich layered cathodes in sulfide solid‐state batteries is uncovered as a previously unrecognized but critical performance‐limiting pathway. This study elucidates its origin and impact and introduces a scalable mitigation strategy using oxygen‐functionalized conductive carbon.

Toward a spatial-temporal measure of land-use mix

open access: yesJournal of Transport and Land Use, 2015
Urban planning and public-health research has long been interested in the connection between land-use mix and travel. Interest from urban planners stems from the potential of transportation efficiency gains achieved by an increased land-use mix and subsequent shortening of trip lengths; whereas, public-health research advocates an increased land-use ...
