Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Prognostic Value of a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing‐Derived Summed Score in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Connective Tissue Disease‐Associated Interstitial Lung Disease: A Prospective Cohort Study

Respirology, EarlyView.
A cardiopulmonary exercise testing‐derived summed score effectively predicted mortality or lung transplantation risk in newly diagnosed interstitial lung disease. Higher summed scores (2–5) were associated with markedly lower event‐free survival rates.

Linking systemic metabolic state to long-term motor memory: Insights from respiratory exchange ratio and glucose manipulation. [PDF]

J Physiol
Abstract figure legend The brain is a major energy consumer relying primarily on carbohydrates. This exceptional metabolic demand suggests that its functional state, which includes cognitive processes such as motor memory acquisition and retention, should be observable in the body's systemic metabolism. To explore this link, we investigated whether the

Adaptive, but Equitable? Exploring the Impact of Machine Learning‐Based Adaptive Support on Educational Debts in Undergraduate Chemistry

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Students' diverse levels of knowledge and competence—shaped by individual interests and educational debts, including structural, systemic, and institutional barriers—create substantial cognitive heterogeneity in instructional settings. Adequately addressing this heterogeneity is challenging.

Real Exchange Rate Misalignment and Economic Growth: An Empirical Study for the Maghreb Countries [PDF]

, 2011
It has long been recognized in academic and policy debates that domestic policies play an important role in explaining economic growth. The paper investigates the role of real exchange rate (RER) misalignment on long-run growth in three countries of the ...

Modelling Future Scenarios for End‐of‐Life Battery Management of Electric Vehicles in São Paulo

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study addresses the escalating challenge of managing end‐of‐life (EOL) electric vehicle (EV) batteries within a circular economy framework, focusing on the city of São Paulo. Using system dynamics modelling, the research projects a fleet of approximately 11 million light‐duty EVs in São Paulo by 2045, generating an annual influx of 1.34 ...

Drivers of phenological transitions in the seedling life stage

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant functional ecology research has primarily focused on juvenile and adult plants even though regeneration from seed can be the most consequential life‐history bottleneck with cascading influence on later stages of growth and reproduction.

Monetary integration and purchasing power parity between Singapore and Britain during the 19th century

Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the development of purchasing power parity between Singapore and Britain during the 19th century. Using new monthly data from 1831 to 1872, it finds that real exchange rates became more stable after the late 1850s. This convergence was supported by growing connections in international bullion markets, which reduced exchange
