Actual and Relative Soil Air Permeability as Soil Physical Quality Index
Journal of Agricultural Science, 2019 Developing indices to evaluate soil physical quality can facilitate diagnosis and decision-making. In this context, intrinsic soil air permeability (Kair) is a physical parameter very sensitive to structural changes due to soil management. However, it is important to establish a standard Kair, considering a reference soil physical state.

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.
