Rogue waves in discrete-time quantum walks [PDF]
Rogue waves are rapid and unpredictable events of exceptional amplitude reported in various fields, such as oceanography and optics, with much of the interest being targeted towards their physical origins and likelihood of occurrence. Here, we use the all-round framework of discrete-time quantum walks to study the onset of those events due to a random ...

A mechano‐electrochemical generator is proposed that harvests energy from ultralow‐frequency waves below 0.01 Hz for self‐powered disaster monitoring. The generator minimizes signal distortion, enabling precise measurement of subtle waves with overlapping frequencies.

Abstract Premise Asia's wet tropical forests face a severe biodiversity crisis, but few fossils record their evolutionary history. We recently discovered in situ cuticles on fossil leaves, attributed to the giant rainforest tree Dryobalanops of the iconic Dipterocarpaceae family, from the Plio‐Pleistocene of Brunei Darussalam (northern Borneo ...

The Matilda Effect and Women's Representation in Biology
Abstract The undervaluing of minorities and their researcher contributions reduces when a threshold level of minority representation (between 15 and 30%) is reached in a group or community. Botany is celebrated as a discipline in which women have been able to make important contributions, especially in the past.

Can the earth be flat ? A physical oceanographer's perspective [PDF]
According to a recent survey, 2% of the U.S. population is convinced that the earth is flat. This idea is heralded by members of the Flat Earth Society, and promulgated through Internet forums and other public media channels. Children and young students are easy targets.
