Haptic In‐Sensor Computing Device Based on CNT/PDMS Nanocomposite Physical Reservoir
Using a porous carbon nanotube‐polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposite, a sensor array integrated with a physical reservoir computing paradigm capable of in‐sensor computing is demonstrated. The device is able to classify between nine objects with an accuracy above 80%, opening the possibility for low‐power sensing/computing for future robotics.

Abstract Premise Understanding how plant populations adapt to water limitation through stomatal traits is key to predicting drought responses. The dominant C4 grass Andropogon gerardi, distributed across sharp climate gradients in North America, offers an excellent focal species to study stomatal architecture (size and density).

Water use efficiency of tomatoes - in greenhouses and hydroponics [PDF]
Massive amounts of water are required for the production of our food, varying from several cubic metres per kilogram of beef to as low as 4 litres per kilogram for tomatoes grown in high-tech glasshouses.

Current use of peat, plastic and fertiliser inputs in organic horticultural and arable crops across Europe [PDF]
The use of contentious inputs linked to plant protection, and the use of peat, plastic and fertilisers used in growing have been mapped in selected organically produced crops in 10 countries across Europe.

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event
Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events

On the Heat Loss Coefficient of Plastic Greenhouse
The primary purpose of this study was to establish a heat loss coefficient (k) whereby calculations of heat requirements could be made for greenhouses.The formula calculating heat requirements for greenhouses is described as follows:Q=kAw(Ti-T0), where, Q=heat required, Kcal/hr, k=heat loss coefficient, Kcal/m2hr°C, Aw=exposed surface area, m2, Ti ...

Abstract Premise Declines in pollinator populations can reduce pollination services to plants, resulting in lower seed production. In response to these reductions, plants could increase the probability of pollinator visitation by plastically extending floral longevity.

Emissions by aerial routes from protected crop systems (greenhouses and crops grown under cover) : a position paper [PDF]
This report describes the processes that may lead to emission of Plant Protection Products (PPP) from protected cultivation, through aerial routes. The introduction gives the background for this work and the limitations, outlining in particular why ...

ABSTRACT Background Nasal airway obstruction (NAO) is prevalent with substantial health and quality of life burdens. Nasal valve collapse (NVC) is one structural cause of NAO. Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) nasal valve remodeling offers an alternative to invasive surgery.
