On the option value of old-growth forest

Ecological Economics, 1997
Abstract The option value of an old-growth forest is determined when the net value of timber is known and non-timber amenity value evolves according to geometric Brownian motion. The model permits the derivation of a critical barrier or boundary on amenity value, denoted A*. Specifically, A* is the minimum amenity value necessary to justify continued

Rhoifolin Alleviates Ulcerative Colitis by Targeting NMNAT1 and Activating SIRT1‐FOXO1 Signaling to Enhance ILC3s Effector Function

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rhoifolin directly targets NMNAT1, thereby activating nicotinamide salvage pathway and promoting intracellular NAD+ biosynthesis. Elevated NAD+ levels enhance SIRT1 activity, leading to FOXO1 deacetylation and nuclear translocation. Nuclear FOXO1 subsequently binds to the IL‐22 promoter, upregulating IL‐22 transcription and potentiating ILC3 effector ...

Structural dynamics of deciduous mixed stands in the Hyrcanian forests, northern Iran

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
Forest structure as an effect of forest dynamics can be used to characterize biophysical processes, biodiversity and ecosystem functions. This study examines the structural components of old-growth forest stands located in the Caspian forests, north of ...

METTL7A Downregulation Drives SLC1A5‐Mediated Glutamine Competition to Promote Tumor Proliferation and Suppress CD8+ T Cell Immunity in Gastric Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GC cells enhance glutamine accumulation by upregulating SLC1A5 expression. This upregulation not only boosts GC cell proliferation, but also outcompetes CD8+ T cells for glutamine and suppresses their antitumor immunity. Mechanistically, METTL7A deficiency in GC induces SLC1A5 overexpression via an m6A‐dependent pathway and N‐glycosylation ...

Asymmetric Evolution of Antennal Cell Types Underlies a Derived Ammonia‐Sensing Logic for Ecological Adaptation in Bactrocera dorsalis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Comparative antennal single‐nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell‐type‐dependent transcriptomic divergence in Bactrocera dorsalis, with similar structural cells but divergent sensory neurons. This neuronal diversification is associated with a distinct ammonia‐sensing pathway, linking female attraction to bird‐dropping‐associated cues with nutritional ...

Dual‐Organelle Secretome Conjugation and Organ‐Uptake Tracking (DuO‐SCOUT) Enables Deep and Sensitive Mapping of the Secreted Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel dual‐organelle proximity labeling platform, DuO‐SCOUT, decodes the complex landscape of systemic organ‐organ communication by capturing both classical and unconventional secretomes. Application in metabolic models maps the adipose‐to‐brain secretory relay, identifying selective extra‐hypothalamic sites for adipose‐derived factors and expanding ...

Herbivory‐Induced Stomatal Opening Triggers the Dispersal of an Invasive Insect Herbivore

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The invasive leafminer Phthorimaea absoluta uniquely manipulates plant defenses by inducing stomatal opening in tomato. This response, mediated by the stomatal regulator IQM1, enhances the release of the repellent volatile benzaldehyde. This volatile triggers the dispersal of adult moths, facilitates colonization of new hosts, and leads to rapid ...

China's Low‐Carbon Energy Transition Over the Past Two Decades: Experiences and Implications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
China's low‐carbon energy transition features a brief decline and subsequent rebound in coal consumption, alongside the rapid expansion of renewable energy. This study develops a stage‐based analytical framework to explain this evolution from the perspectives of economic development, energy security, and environmental sustainability, revealing how ...

How Video‐Based Information Affects Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Drone Services

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Professional service for digital technology like agricultural drones lowers transaction costs and scope thresholds for smallholders. Meanwhile, perceptual adoption barriers remain underexplored. We conduct a two‐stage choice experiment with a randomized video‐based information treatment among 384 Chinese crop farmers to measure its effect on ...
