The adaptive evolution of serpentine tolerance in selected species of Czech serpentine plants
Serpentine soils produce speciafic habitats with extreme edaphic conditions. which are hostile to plant life. They contain high concentrations of nickel and have an unfavorable calcium/magnesium ratio.

ABSTRACT We situate this article from/with/in the Necrocene, a geological period marked by the systematic production of human and more‐than‐human death to an extent that ecological destruction, extinction, loss and harm have become a structural feature of modern life.

Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to explore the thoughts and feelings of stroke patients and their carers (family/guardians) about oral care during hospitalisation, and (in turn) inform future research and service development. Background Stroke is a leading cause of adult disability and associated physical and cognitive impairments can compromise ...

Enhancing Recharge Beneath Low‐Permeability Landscapes with Small‐Diameter Drywells: Token Creek, WI
Shallow, small‐diameter drywells provide enhanced recharge in rural landscapes, bypassing the low infiltration rates caused by low permeability surficial soils and high ET rates. One year of monitoring data show several recharge events and overall high water quality.

Abstract Regolith samples from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu were stowed and delivered to Earth in the OSIRIS‐REx spacecraft's Sample Return Capsule (SRC). We applied multiple analytical techniques to study the components of the post‐flight SRC, with a focus on assessing the conditions and any contaminants to which the Bennu samples were exposed ...

Looking for trouble: A common threat‐detection mechanism underlying pain, fear, and anxiety
I put forward a novel cognitive architecture for pain, fear, and anxiety, according to which these three capacities are underpinned by a common threat‐detection mechanism. This mechanism takes information about potential threats as input, assesses whether the threat is actual and, if it deems it is, outputs a threat representation.

Abstract Introduction Successful restoration of terrestrial drylands depends on stable, fertile soils that retain water. These functions are provided by biological soil crusts (biocrust), suggesting their reestablishment is a critical step in dryland restoration.

Speciation and Mobility of Cr and Ni in Serpentine Rocks and Derived Sediments (Tuscany, Italy)
Large outcrops of ophiolites from exposed land surfaces can potentially impact the geochemistry of much greater areas through transport and weathering. Derived soil and sediments contain significant concentrations of heavy metals, including chromium and ...
