White Christian Nationalism: Adult Education and Threats to Democracy

open access: yesNew Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult education has a historical and ongoing commitment to fostering democratic relationships, demonstrated by the tendency of adult education to be called upon when social change and realignment are most desirable. This article considers the philosophical and pragmatic possibilities for adult education at this moment, when White Christian ...

Contrasting plant ecological benefits endowed by naturally occurring EPSPS resistance mutations under glyphosate selection

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2021
Concurrent natural evolution of glyphosate resistance single‐ and double‐point EPSPS mutations in weed species provides an opportunity for the estimation of resistance fitness benefits and prediction of equilibrium resistance frequencies in environments ...

Resistance and resilience of social–ecological systems to recurrent typhoon disturbance on a subtropical island: Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Tropical cyclones (TCs) have major effects on ecological and social systems. However, studies integrating the effects of TCs on both social and ecological systems are rare, especially in the northwest Pacific, where the frequency of TCs (locally named ...

Maillard Type Reaction for Electroless Copper Plating onto Ceramic Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents the manufacturing of copper‐plated ceramic nanoparticles in an environmentally friendly way. Supported by organic functionalizations with pectin an electroless plating step can be performed. Sustainable reagents like xylose, and several amino acids are used for the reduction process.

Complex genome evolution in Anopheles coluzzii associated with increased insecticide usage in Mali. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In certain cases, a species may have access to important genetic variation present in a related species via adaptive introgression. These novel alleles may interact with their new genetic background, resulting in unexpected phenotypes.

A Novel Approach on Rapid Alloy Development of Tool Steels for Laser Powder Bed Fusion by In Situ Alloying

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A novel approach for alloy development in laser powder bed fusion is introduced. Instead of producing massive samples of one composition at a time, prepressed powder bed samples produced from powder mixtures are processed. Guidelines for the selection of precursor powders are developed.
