Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198—A Promising Strain for Studying Pathogenesis of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease (NTM‐PD)

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we introduce a promising strain for studying pathogenesis of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM‐PD), Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198. M.i.198 was isolated from a patient with progressive Mycobacterium avium‐intracellulare complex pulmonary disease (MAC‐PD) in whom surgical operation was required to ...

Elevating the importance of Risk of Bias assessment for ecology and evolutionary biology

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Systematic reviews and meta‐analyses are key evidence synthesis methods for informing future research, interventions and policy. As the validity of their conclusions depends on the primary studies they synthesise, assessing the internal validity of the included studies is essential.

Estimating the uncertainties of satellite derived soil moisture at global scale

Science of Remote Sensing
This study attempts to derive the uncertainty of the soil moisture estimation from passive microwave satellite mission at global scale. To do so, the approach is based on the sensitivity of the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) soil moisture ...

From Rating System to Thought Leadership: The Evolution of the Canada Green Building Council

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Green Building Social Movement Organizations encourage the adoption of green buildings, primarily by promoting sustainability rating tools. While numerous papers have explored the market impact of these sustainability rating tools, very few have examined either the lengthy and protracted process of their selection and enrollment by ...

The role of generative AI in collaborative problem‐solving of authentic challenges

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates undergraduate and postgraduate teamwork in a four‐week ‘Generative AI for Social Good’ hackathon, focusing on how students use GAI tools in authentic problem‐solving within their learning ecology. It examines the factors that foster productive collaboration and explores evidence of AI extending human cognition beyond ...

Noise Mitigation of the SMOS L1C Multi-Angle Brightness Temperature Based on the Lookup Table

Remote Sensing
Owing to the inherently lower sensitivity of microwave aperture synthesis radiometers (ASRs), Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite brightness temperature (TB) measurements exhibit significantly greater system noise than real-aperture ...

Assimilation of SMOS‐derived soil moisture in a fully integrated hydrological and soil‐vegetation‐atmosphere transfer model in Western Denmark

Water Resources Research, 2014
Real surface soil moisture retrieved from the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite is downscaled and assimilated in a fully integrated hydrological and soil‐vegetation‐atmosphere transfer (MIKE SHE SW‐ET) model using a bias aware ensemble ...

Decoding functional specialization in G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) through evolution‐guided residue profiling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins that mediate physiological processes by enabling cells to detect and respond to diverse stimuli. Although many subfamily‐specific functional hotspots have been described, the family‐wide determinants of common and subfamily‐specific functions remain incomplete ...
