Crop Redistribution Increases Regional Production While Reducing Water Deficit, Fertilizer Use, and Production Losses: Evidence from a Multi-Objective Optimization at the County Level in Northeast China

Agronomy
Given the increasing crop yield losses, water scarcity, and fertilizer application in Northeast China, a systematic assessment is increasingly necessary to investigate the potential of crop redistribution to enhance grain production while alleviating ...

Runoff modelling in glacierized Central Asian catchments for present-day and future climate [PDF]

, 2006
A conceptual precipitation–runoff model was applied in five glacierized catchments in Central Asia. The model, which was first developed and applied in the Alps, works on a daily time step and yields good results in the more continental climate of the ...

A Smart Bio‐Battery Facilitates Diabetic Bone Defect Repair Via Inducing Macrophage Reprogramming and Synergistically Modulating Bone Remodeling Coupling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This research presents a novel implantable bio‐battery, GF‐OsG, tailored for diabetic bone repair. GF‐OsG generates microcurrents in high‐glucose conditions to enhance vascularization, shift macrophages to the M2 phenotype, and regulate immune responses.

Influence of Snow Redistribution and Melt Pond Schemes on Simulated Sea Ice Thickness During the MOSAiC Expedition

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The observations of atmospheric, oceanic, and sea ice data from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition were used to analyze the influence of snow redistribution and melt-pond processes on the ...

Simulations of snow distribution and hydrology in a mountain basin [PDF]

, 1999
We applied a version of the Regional Hydro‐Ecologic Simulation System (RHESSys) that implements snow redistribution, elevation partitioning, and wind‐driven sublimation to Loch Vale Watershed (LVWS), an alpine‐subalpine Rocky Mountain catchment where ...

Quantum correction for electron transfer rates. Comparison of polarizable versus nonpolarizable descriptions of solvent [PDF]

, 1993
The electron transfer rate constant is treated using the spin-boson Hamiltonian model. The spectral density is related to the experimentally accessible data on the dielectric dispersion of the solvent, using a dielectric continuum approximation.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...
