ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Multi‐variable finite‐time observer‐based adaptive‐gain sliding mode control for fixed‐wing UAV
This paper presents a multivariable finite‐time observer‐based adaptive‐gain sliding mode control scheme for a fixed‐wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) subject to the unmeasurable angular rates and unknown matched/unmatched disturbance.

Efficient Sum-of-Sinusoids based Spatial Consistency for the 3GPP New-Radio Channel Model
Spatial consistency was proposed in the 3GPP TR 38.901 channel model to ensure that closely spaced mobile terminals have similar channels. Future extensions of this model might incorporate mobility at both ends of the link.

Species sorting drives variation of boreal lake and river macrophyte communities [PDF]
Metacommunity paradigms are increasingly studied to explain how environmental control and spatial patterns determine variation in community composition. However, the relative importance of these patterns on biological assemblages among different habitats

Diatoms are generally regarded as inhabitants of water bodies. However, numerous taxa are able to survive and reproduce in a variety of non-aquatic ecosystems. Although terrestrial diatoms are discussed extensively in the literature, most of those studies covered floristic aspects and few information exists on their ecology.

Factors controlling soil spatial variability in a native range landscape
Soils were characterized along three transects of the same catenary sequence within the semi-arid shortgrass (Bouteloua gracilis) steppe of north central Colorado. The objectives of the study were to: 1. Evaluate which factor or combination of factors (i.e. parent material, topography, biota) is/are the most important controls on soil development, soil

Spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility in the Alqueva reservoir watershed [PDF]
The aim of this work is to investigate how the spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility (K factor) were affected by the changes in land use allowed by irrigation with water from a reservoir in a semiarid area.
