Changes in the structural indices of annual shoots of Quercus rubra under anthropogenic impact
Air pollution is one of the important problems of large cities. In connection with this, comprehensive study of the mechanisms of the corresponding reactions of tree species, introduced in the process of landscaping, to various environmen tal factors is ...

Low Temperature Site‐Specific Pulsed Laser Annealing of MoS2
The application of laser pulses, of extremely short duration, is investigated as a potential new method to modify the atomic structure of ultrathin 2D materials for use in the creation of future electrical devices. The process is efficient, offering a site‐specific functionality, where regions of an electronic device that only requires annealing is ...

High‐pressure studies of the lead‐free hybrid organic–inorganic ferroelectric [N(C2H5)3CH3]FeCl4 demonstrate record low compressibility, establishing it as the least compressible molecular ferroelectric known. In situ diamond anvil cell experiments identify halide selection and inorganic sublattice tuning as key compressibility controls, advancing ...

Homicide, punishment and deterrence in Australia
Abstract Australian data encompassing 1910–2022, by year and state, were analyzed to estimate the effect of capital punishment on homicide rates. Our estimates showed that capital punishment had a negative and significant effect on homicides. In some specifications, the estimates implied that an execution was associated with 12.68 fewer homicides ...

Sweet potato cultivars differ in efficiency of wound healing [PDF]
This paper presents a study on the wound healing in sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) when exposed to tropical conditions typical for marketing (RH 50% to 73%, T 25oC to 30oC). The physiological processes during healing are revisited.

Abstract We explore phylogenetic relationships within the Pachira sensu lato clade (Bombacoideae, Malvaceae), test the monophyly of the genera Eriotheca and Pachira, and investigate their biogeographic history. The Pachira s.l. clade comprises ca. 72 species that traditionally have been placed in Eriotheca and Pachira. We sampled ca. 79% of its species
