CardioRespiratory Effects of Wildfire Suppression (CREWS) study: an experimental overview

Frontiers in Public Health
An increase in the severity of global wildfires necessitates examination of the associated health risks, particularly in wildfire personnel. Exposure to particulate matter from smoke (PM2.5), soil/dust, and ash (PM4) and other wildfire-associated ...

The Response of Zigadenus fremontii to Variation in Fire Regime [PDF]

, 2010
California\u27s chaparral shrub communities are naturally exposed to dry-season fire. It could be reasoned that prescription burns set during the wet season by land managers would have more detrimental effects on plant regeneration than dry season fires

Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Macrophage–Derived Ferritin Exacerbates Silica‐Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis via PIK3R2‐Mediated Fibroblast Differentiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ferritin as a pivotal mediator of silica‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. Macrophage‐derived ferritin drives fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast differentiation via the PIK3R2/SMAD pathway, while ferritin knockdown alleviates fibrosis. These findings define ferritin as both a biomarker and pathogenic driver, highlighting ferritin‐PIK3R2 ...

High-energy ball milling-induced facile preparation and controllable surface oxidation of black phosphorus for improving fire safety of epoxy resin via synergistic effect

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
Here we directly converted red phosphorus (RP) into black phosphorus (BP) through a facile and green one-step high-energy ball milling method. The surface oxidation degree of BP could be tuned by changing milling time and rotation speed.

Evaluation of advanced combustion concepts for dry NO sub x suppression with coal-derived, gaseous fuels [PDF]

The emissions performance of a rich lean combustor (developed for liquid fuels) was determined for combustion of simulated coal gases ranging in heating value from 167 to 244 Btu/scf (7.0 to 10.3 MJ/NCM). The 244 Btu/scf gas is typical of the product gas
