Understory plant species recruitment and expansion spur community shifts following forest restoration treatments

Ecosphere
Restoration treatments have been implemented in many of the dry conifer forests of the western United States. By decreasing forest density and increasing forest heterogeneity, these treatments are generally effective at meeting their primary objective of

Spatial characterization of species Copaifera langsdorffii and Xylopia brasiliensis located in an urban forest fragment of the Atlantic Forest domain [PDF]

Ciência Rural
: It is estimated that the Atlantic Rain Forest currently occupies about 12% of its original area, predominantly composed of fragments resulting from high deforestation rates.

From Sensing Mechanisms to System Co‐Design: Graphene‐Based Sensors and Readout Circuits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review establishes a unified PS–EQ–RF framework linking graphene sensing mechanisms, native electrical outputs, and output‐specific readout circuits. Voltage‐, current‐, resistance‐, and capacitance‐type sensing systems are systematically classified to guide architecture selection, low‐noise design, system co‐design, and practical integration ...

Mixed Forest Plantations with Native Species for Ecological Restoration in Cloud Forests of the Venezuelan Andes

, 2021
Tropical cloud forests play a fundamental role in the hydrological cycle of mountain watersheds having the largest biodiversity per unit area. In Venezuela, cloud forests are subject to intense deforestation and fragmentation by farming and cattle-ranching causing soil erosion, water cycle alteration, and biodiversity loss.

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

MethyAnno: An Interpretable Automated Annotation Method Leveraging Multi‐Scale Information and Metric Learning Framework for scDNAm Data

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MethyAnno enables robust and interpretable annotation of single‐cell DNA methylation data by integrating multi‐scale epigenetic information, bidirectional cross‐attention, and prototype‐based metric learning. The framework resolves rare and novel cell types across datasets while revealing cell‐type‐specific epigenetic signatures associated with disease

Leveraging Microphysiological Systems to Facilitate Neutrophil‐Based Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microphysiological systems are emerging as powerful human‐relevant platforms for studying neutrophil biology in cancer. Current applications of spheroids, organoids, and organ‐on‐a‐chip models are reviewed, together with future opportunities in behaviorome profiling, multi‐omics integration, personalized medicine, immune crosstalk, and multi‐organ ...

High light availability offsets low naturalness regarding diversity but cannot compensate for reduced ecological value: A case study of near-natural forests and tree plantations in Serbia

Journal of Forest Science
In Eastern Europe, near-natural forest patches are decreasing and are gradually replaced by non-native plantations. Tree plantations are commonly thought to be simple ecosystems with low conservation value, although this conclusion is mainly based on ...

Wood Carbon Sponge/SiO2 Aerogel Composites with Anisotropic Broadband Microwave Absorption, Elastic Resilience, and Thermal Insulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Anisotropic wood carbon sponge/SiO2 aerogel composites are constructed, revealing a robust direction‐dependent permittivity ordering (tangential > radial > axial). The radial direction delivers an ultra‐broadband effective absorption bandwidth of 11.6 GHz at only 4.95 mm, while the tangential direction offers superior compressibility and thermal ...
