Seagrass monitoring methods: Aligning expert opinion with practice

iScience
Summary: Seagrass meadows are vital ecosystems, yet methods to monitor their health lack standardization, which makes data comparison challenging. To identify key approaches and evaluate alignment with expert opinion, we compared the most used health ...

Polyradical character and spin frustration in fullerene molecules: An ab initio non-collinear Hartree--Fock study

, 2014
Most {\em ab initio} calculations on fullerene molecules have been carried out based on the paradigm of the H\"uckel model. This is consistent with the restricted nature of the independent-particle model underlying such calculations, even in single ...

Preferences of Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Control Endpoints: A Mixed Methods Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.
