Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours
Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

Phong‐Rodrigues Extrinsic Vector‐Field Processing
Abstract We introduce a new extrinsic discretization of tangent vector fields on triangle meshes that is continuous, with bounded derivatives that are continuous almost everywhere, supporting pointwise evaluation and integration of differential operators.

SharpEdge: Edge Feature Surface Reconstruction From Space Curves
SharpEdge reconstructs surfaces with sharp features from sparse 3D curve networks. By estimating dual normals along curves, our method preserves ridges and corners while producing high‐quality meshes. Abstract Reconstructing high‐quality surfaces from sparse 3D space curves remains challenging, particularly when sharp feature edges are involved ...

Abstract We present a morphology‐based backbone phylogeny of Cerambycidae beetles inferred by parsimony analyses using 77 adult characters scored for 101 species. This phylogeny is largely consistent with recent phylogenomic studies regarding key placements (e.g., Parandrini stat. rev. within Prioninae, Necydalini stat. rev.

Comparison of computed tomographic, radiographic and anatomical dorsal hoof wall measurements
Summary Background No comparison of radiographic and computed tomographic (CT) dorsal hoof wall (DHW) thickness and DHW to the palmar length of the distal phalanx (DHWDP) ratio has been published. Radiographic measurements obtained with and without radiodense markers on the DHW have not been compared.

Continued population recovery and high annual survival rates of White‐rumped Vultures in Nepal
Populations of Gyps vultures in South Asia underwent catastrophic declines caused by unintentional poisoning by the veterinary drug diclofenac. Since the drug was banned in 2006–2010, declines have halted across the region, including in Nepal. The present study updates population trends of G.

Proof of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem for Chords Using Symmetry and Rotational Invariance
This paper presents an original, fully rigorous proof of the classical theorem stating that the line segment from the center of a circle to the midpoint of any chord is perpendicular to that chord. Developed by the author at age 11, this approach utilizes reflective symmetry and rotational invariance to provide a purely visual-geometric alternative to ...

A description of dental microanatomy and implantation geometry in Chamaeleonidae
A reassessment of the dental histology in adult chamaeleons reveals the presence of periodontal ligament. Alongside alveolar bone and cementum, these tissues together constitute a compacted and remodelled tripartite periodontium. Our findings include the novel observation of plicidentine‐like protuberances of dentine within underlying bone.
