Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing

A Modified Hierarchical Vision Transformer for Soil Moisture Retrieval From CYGNSS Data
This research introduces a new deep learning (DL) framework, multi‐head self‐attention‐aided vision Transformer (MSA‐ViT), for soil moisture (SM) retrieval using Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) data. We first assess the sensitivity of

A Generic Approach to Creating a National Soil Security Strategy
ABSTRACT Soil is a living and non‐renewable resource that underpins our very existence. It produces our food, filters our water, stores vast amounts of carbon, cycles essential nutrients, and sustains the rich tapestry of biodiversity on which our planet depends.

Oxaziridines: Versatile Reagents in Modern Organic Synthesis
Being capable of transferring an O atom and N‐group/atom, oxaziridines are considered multitasking agents. These are employed for diverse organic transformations, such as epoxidation of olefins, α‐ and γ‐hydroxylation/amination of carbonyl compounds, oxidation of sulfides, [3+2]cycloaddition with unsaturated systems.

ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to compare the radiopacity of composite resins (CR) used as lining, base, and core‐build up materials with enamel and dentine and evaluate their compliance with ISO 4049. Methods Specimens of 1, 2, and 3 mm thicknesses; (n = 6) were fabricated from 13 low‐viscosity and 10 regular‐viscosity CRs.
