Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rapid global expansion of photovoltaic (PV) solar facilities, now comprising nearly 80% of the recent and projected growth of renewable electricity, represents one of the most significant land‐use changes of the 21st century. While PV facilities are critical for decarbonising energy systems, their large spatial footprint and infrastructure

Prevalence of Retinopathy in Adult Patients with GCK-MODY and HNF1A-MODY
Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2015 We aimed to assess the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in adult patients with GCK-MODY and HNF1A-MODY in Poland and to identify biochemical and clinical risk factors associated with its occurrence.We examined 74 GCK mutation carriers, 51 with diabetes and 23 with prediabetes, respectively, and 63 patients with HNF1A-MODY.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) to tubulin subunits in microtubule filaments are thought to comprise a component of the tubulin code that specifies microtubule functions in cell physiology and animal development. Acetylation of Lysine‐40 (K40) on α‐tubulin (αTub‐K40ac) and glutamylation of both α‐ and β‐tubulin are two tubulin PTMs of ...

ON ROTATIONAL INVARIANCE OF HIGHER-ORDER MOMENTS OF REGULAR POLYHEDRA
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil EngineeringThis paper covers aspects of establishing a relationship between the highest-order rotation-invariant moments of inertia and the order of symmetry of Platonic polyhedra. Moments of inertia about arbitrary, but centroidal axes are considered.

Responses of Water Use Efficiency to Drought in Southwest China
Remote Sensing, 2020 Water use efficiency (WUE) measures the tradeoff between carbon uptake and water consumption in terrestrial ecosystems. It remains unclear how the responses of WUE to drought vary with drought severity.

Global analysis suggests nitrogen deposition as an underestimated driver of vegetation greening
Ecography, EarlyView.The local effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on plants are well established, yet a global empirical analysis of nitrogen deposition effects on vegetation dynamics is missing. Here, we assess how nitrogen deposition, alongside other global change drivers such as fire, and changes in temperature, precipitation and human land use, is related to ...

Complexity in the Wake of Artificial Intelligence
ComplexityThis study aims to evaluate quantitatively (albeit in arbitrary units) the evolution of complexity of the human system since the domestication of fire. This is made possible by studying the timing of the 14 most important milestones—breaks in historical ...
