Divergent Responses of Bacterial Communities to Permafrost Degradation and Their Associations With Carbon Across Vertical Profiles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial α‐diversity decreases, but stochasticity and community stability increase across the 15 m‐depth vertical profiles and along the degraded gradient within the active layer. The abundance and interaction of core taxa mainly control community stability in the active and permafrost layers, respectively.

Tri–Band and Dual–Response Smart Windows With Asymmetric Mid–Infrared Emissivity for Year–Round Energy Conservation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Our promising smart window exhibits exceptional optical properties, enabling the indoor temperature reduction of 12°C during summer and delivering the annual energy savings of 14.2%–24.4% across mid–to–low latitudes. ABSTRACT Building energy consumption accounts for 20%–40% of global energy usage, with windows among the least energy–efficient ...

Depicting urban boundaries from a mobility network of spatial interactions: A case study of Great Britain with geo-located Twitter data

open access: yes, 2017
Existing urban boundaries are usually defined by government agencies for administrative, economic, and political purposes. Defining urban boundaries that consider socio-economic relationships and citizen commute patterns is important for many aspects of ...

Cellular Snowballing: Cell Adhesion and Migration Drive the Self‐Assembly of Cell‐Microgel Biohybrid Spheroids

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A new class of biohybrid spheroids is engineered through the self‐assembly of adherent cells and extracellular matrix‐mimetic hydrogel microparticles (microgels). By mimicking a snowballing effect, this approach enables scalable formation of porous, millimeter‐scale spheroids with enhanced cell viability and molecular diffusion.

Introducing Preference Heterogeneity into a Monocentric Urban Model: an Agent-Based Land Market Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper presents an agent-based urban land market model. We first replace the centralized price determination mechanism of the monocentric urban market model with a series of bilateral trades distributed in space and time.

A Wearable Brain–Computer Interface for Mitigating Car Sickness via Attention Shifting

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Car sickness poses a major challenge in vehicular travel, yet effective nonpharmacological solutions are scarce. We developed a wearable, closed‐loop mindfulness BCI that uses real‐time EEG‐based neurofeedback to shift attention away from motion‐induced discomfort. Validated in real‐car experiments involving >100$>100$ susceptible individuals, over 83%

Influence of rock heterogeneity on the correlation between uniaxial compressive strength and Brazilian tensile strength

open access: yesScientific Reports
To offer guidance for using Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) to estimate UCS of heterogeneous rocks, this study uses sandstone (fine or coarse grain) and gneiss (0°, 45°, 90° inclined anisotropy) to investigate the influence of grain size or anisotropy ...
