A First Estimate for Canada of the Number of Birds Killed by Colliding with Building Windows

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2013
Mortality from birds colliding with windows in buildings may be ecologically significant. Although data are sparse, we estimated the number of birds killed by this means in Canada.

Dynamic Evolution‐Controlled Parabolic‐Shaped Microstructures for Ultra‐Black Surface via Self‐Assembled Microsphere Mask Etching

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A robust, substrate‐independent fabrication approach overcomes the spectral and geometric limitations of traditional stray‐light suppression. By combining ink spray‐coating with self‐assembled microsphere mask etching, this method produces parabolic‐shaped microstructures on diverse planar and curved engineering components.

Modeling of a tall building

Inżynieria Bezpieczeństwa Obiektów Antropogenicznych, 2022
Rapid economic, environmental changes and finite energy resources dictate the need for rational use of energy. Civil engineering is the sector responsible for the highest energy consumption. Therefore, efforts should be made to reduce the energy consumption of construction works in progress. An indispensable factor of development is the introduction of

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Functional and Network PHAs via Stereoselective Polymerization and Tailored Post‐Transformation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Catalyst‐controlled stereoselective (co)polymerization of functionalized lactones produces vinyl‐, allyl‐, and propargyl‐functionalized PHAs with high syndiotacticity and a broad applicable temperature window, which can be further transformed into crosslinked PHA thermosets, elastic supramolecular networks, and functional grafts. ABSTRACT Incorporation

SiDT1 Defines Plant Architecture Reminiscent of Green Revolution in Foxtail Millet

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SiDT1 encodes a GA3‐oxidase that creates a semi‐dwarf, lodging‐resistant architecture reminiscent of the rice Green Revolution. The resulting ideotype performs well under dense planting and provides a valuable genetic resource for high‐yield, mechanized foxtail millet production. ABSTRACT Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is a drought‐tolerant C4 cereal

An Artificially Selected Cytokinin‐Pathway Transcription Factor Balances Soybean Yield and Pathogen Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...
