Species identity and spatial scale drive context‑dependent tree diversity effects in a Finnish forest experiment

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.

Anisotropic community turn‐over at habitat edges informs on assembly drivers: simulation and empirical test on soil macrofauna

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Biodiversity dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes is the result of a complex interplay between movement processes of organisms within and between habitat patches, and niche filtering processes due to spatially varying environmental conditions. Disentangling the relative influences of these different processes on community assembly and dynamics is a ...

Strain Development During Cure of Partially Pre‐Cured Thermosetting Composites Measured With Distributed Fiber Optic Sensors

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the beneficial effect of ply pre‐curing on temperature overshoot, internal strain and warpage during cure of thin and thick thermosetting composites. ABSTRACT Detection of manufacturing‐induced defects in thermosetting composites is crucial to guarantee part quality, safety, and improve manufacturing efficiency.

Testing VIPV Curved Modules: Methods and Challenges

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
This work presents procedures and equipment for characterizing curved vehicle‐integrated photovoltaic (VIPV) modules through STC I–V curve and relative angular response (RAR) measurements. Outdoor measurements are compared with indoor measurements obtained using a collimated‐light solar simulator, showing excellent agreement for STC I–V curves.

Assessing the evolutionary distinctiveness of a highly threatened plant group: The urgency to preserve a unique lineage of evolution in Brazil

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Brazil's diverse flora is under several threats, with many unique lineages facing extinction, particularly in biodiverse regions like the Cerrado and campo rupestre. This study sheds light on the conservation needs of Cambessedesia (Melastomataceae), an endemic genus with 95% of its species endangered, using an approach to rank and prioritise species ...

UCanWBGT: urban street canyon heat stress calculation for weather and climate models

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This work introduces UCanWBGT, a new model to calculate wet‐bulb globe temperature in an urban environment, suitable for use with weather and climate model data. We present the model, then verify its performance against observations made in the streets of Paris during heatwave conditions.
