Impact of the Redheaded Pine Sawfly (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae) on Young Red Pine Plantations [PDF]
, 2017 The ecology of the redheaded pine sawfly was studied relative to its impact on red pine plantations. An ecological model, which formed the basis for socioeconomic analysis, was constructed.

Development of climatic damage predictive tool for timber façade moisture-related damage
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023 Abstract Development of the method for automated and adaptive assessment of mould growth in the timber frame facade is presented. A heat, air, and moisture (HAM) transport simulation using the open-source Python library HAMOPY is validated against a well-established software (WUFI Pro 1D).

Management of Moisture-Associated Skin Damage: A Scoping Review [PDF]
Advances in Skin & Wound Care, 2017 ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Protecting the skin against moisture-associated damage is an important component of comprehensive skin and wound care. Based on a review of literature, the authors propose key interventions to protect and prevent damage in the skin folds, perineum, and areas surrounding a wound or stoma.

Probabilistic assessment of the impact of material properties on the risk of frost damage in masonry constructions [PDF]
, 2019 Historically valuable buildings often contain a huge energy saving potential due to their current lacking thermal performance of the building envelope. Next to this, unfortunately insulation measures, which normally occur at the inside, induce a decrease

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...
