The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

A Massive White Dwarf or Low-mass Neutron Star Discovered by LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal
We report the discovery of a close binary J0606+2132 (Gaia DR3 3423365496448406272) with P _obs = 2.77 days containing a possible massive white dwarf (WD) or a neutron star (NS) using LAMOST spectroscopic data.

Nature at Risk, Finance at Stake: A Systematic Literature Review of Biodiversity Risk in Finance Research

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity‐related financial risk is increasingly recognized not only as a market concern but as an ethical and systemic imperative for businesses and financial institutions. This systematic literature review synthesizes 103 peer‐reviewed studies to examine how biodiversity risk is conceptualized, measured, and integrated within financial ...

Wide Binaries with White Dwarf or Neutron Star Companions Discovered from Gaia DR3 and LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal
The Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) mission has identified and provided about 440,000 binary systems with orbital solutions, offering a valuable resource for searching binaries including a compact component.

Constitution of the White Dwarf Stars [PDF]

Nature, 1931
IT is generally held that the white dwarf is in the degenerate state in the sense of the statistics of Fermi and Dirac. This assumption leads to another consequence bearing on the relative abundance of elements in the same star. Assuming further that (i) all atoms of various elements in the white dwarf are stripped of their extranuclear electrons, and (

Anti‐Inflammatory, Antioxidant, Molecular Docking and Pharmacokinetics Properties of Cycloeucalenone Isolated From Musa × paradisiaca L. Fruit Peels

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study isolated a compound with anti‐inflammatory properties from Musa × paradisiaca fruit peels. The methanol extract was partitioned, and the hexane fraction with the best bioactivity was subjected to column chromatography before characterization via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV–visible (UV–VIS) and NMR analysis.

Measuring the Mass–Radius Relation of White Dwarfs Using Wide Binaries

The Astrophysical Journal
Measuring the mass–radius relation of individual white dwarfs is an empirically challenging task that has been performed for only a few dozen stars. We measure the white dwarf mass–radius relation using the gravitational redshifts and radii of 135 white ...
