ATAPTED SLOPES

Proyecto, Progreso, Arquitectura, 2019
This article focuses on three research questions: 1) Were terraced landscapes built in the analytical or creative phase of the first human intervention in a place? 2) Does the geometry of the slopes adapted as a terraced landscape apply in a conscious planning process?

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

An ice-binding protein from an Arctic grass, Leymus mollis [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2020
Several cold-hardy grasses have been shown to have ice-binding proteins (IBPs) that protect against freeze-thaw injury. Here, we looked for IBP activity in an Alaskan coastal grass that had not previously been examined, Leymus mollis (Pooidae).

Monitoring and prediction spatiotemporal vegetation changes using NDVI index and CA-Markov model (case study: Kermanshah city) [PDF]

علوم محیطی, 2020
Introduction: Monitoring and evaluation of land surface condition is one of the basic needs in investigating the changes occurring at different levels, including global, regional and local, which include environmental changes.

Macrofaunal abundance and community composition at lower bathyal depths in different branches of the Whittard Canyon and on the adjacent slope (3500 m; NE Atlantic) [PDF]

, 2015
We studied benthic macrofaunal abundance and community composition in replicate Megacorer samples obtained from three sites in different branches of the Whittard Canyon (NE Atlantic) and one site on the adjacent slope to the west of the canyon system ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Soil carbon emissions and influential factors across various stages of vegetation succession in vegetated concrete

Scientific Reports
After ecological restoration of high and steep slopes in the project disturbed area, soil properties, soil microorganisms, litter types and root types change with the succession of vegetation cover communities.

Stability analysis for rock slope using finite element modeling near Darekasa Railway Station: A case study

Journal of Intelligent Construction
This paper examines the stability of rock slopes along the broad gauge (BG) line near Darekasa (approximately 1.0 km from Darekasa Station towards the western side). Unsafe slopes and rockfalls can hinder train travel, causing commuters difficulties.
