A novel construction approach for the pore structure model principally focuses on the controllable roundness of rock particles

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Particle rounding effects comparison of different methods: (a), (b), and (c) are the rounding results using the B‐spline curve method with different R; (d), (e), and (f) are the results of vertex rounding substitution method with different rounding radii.

Perspective Projection of an Ellipse and an Ellipsoid for Analytical View Factor Evaluation

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiative view factors are fundamental quantities for evaluating radiative heat transfer between different surfaces. While analytical expressions of view factors have been evaluated for various types of basic geometries, including circular disks and spheres, extending these solutions to more complex geometries, such as ellipses and ellipsoids ...

Assessment of the Threat Status of Bent‐Toed Geckos (Cyrtodactylus) in Indochina: Implementation of the One Plan Approach

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the diversity, conservation status, distribution, and discovery rate of 84 Cyrtodactylus species in Indochina. Despite rising discovery rates, many species are unassessed, with over half unprotected and 90.5% endemic. This study suggests expanding protected areas and implementing an integrated approach to conservation with IUCN ...

Five foundational tools for managing metadata from the USDA Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The United States Department of Agriculture Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network comprises 19 sites and has collectively produced nearly one petabyte of data. Data include time‐series measurements, remotely sensed imagery, and high‐throughput environmental data from field and laboratory instrumentation.

Remote sensing of soil organic carbon in varied tillage‐crop systems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of remote sensing (RS) to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC) in cropland has become increasingly important to producers, researchers, and policy makers to assess soil and plant health across spatially variable landscapes. Yet, RS estimation of cropland SOC is challenging, particularly when mixed crop residues and soils are present. Our

Landscape suitability and range expansion estimates for the North American Interior Population of trumpeter swans

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We incorporated landscape suitability into a trumpeter swan range expansion model. We estimated a 4.4% (95% CI: 2.0–6.9%) annual range expansion rate from 2023 to 2033, with expansion occurring in the Prairie Pothole Region of the Dakotas and the Boreal Shield and James Bay Lowlands of Canada. Abstract The Interior Population of trumpeter swans (Cygnus

Fabrication of Lithium/Strontium‐Releasing Smart Bioactive Glasses with Anti‐Inflammatory and Osteogenic Effects Tailored to Pathological Stages

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Bioactive glasses with controllable dual ion release capability are developed to aid bone regeneration. The bioactive glasses rapidly release lithium ions that exert an anti‐inflammatory effect, suppressing inflammation after bone injury. Simultaneously, the bioactive glasses slowly release strontium ions, which support bone formation by suppressing ...

Trophic niche overlap decreases in related mesocarnivore species

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
In natural environments, competition between species is a crucial factor for the survival or demise of populations. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that promote species coexistence is crucial in community and evolutionary ecology. The phylogenetic limiting to similarity hypothesis (PLSH) posits that closely related species should experience ...

Estimation of longitudinal and transverse stiffness of hemp fibers and their composites using experimental material parameters and invariants

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
The utilization of the trace normalized stiffness parameter facilitates direct comparison between natural and non‐natural composites, as it acts as a material parameter. This facilitates the reverse calculation of fiber properties. Abstract The use of hemp is becoming increasingly favored due to its low carbon footprint and biodegradability advantages ...
