The Ecological Restoration of Heavily Degraded Saline Wetland in the Yellow River Delta [PDF]

, 2013
As a result of discontinuous water flow, agriculture, and increasing urban use of fresh water affecting the natural wetlands of the Yellow River Delta, these areas have experienced significant degradation in the past two decades, ultimately diminishing ...

Prevalence of Cam Femoroacetabular Lesions in Medieval (1200‐1600 CE) and Postmedieval (1600‐1850 CE) Dutch Skeletal Collections

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate medieval and postmedieval Dutch skeletal collections for signs of cam impingent. Methods The medieval collections from Alkmaar Paardenmarkt and Klaaskinderkerke and the postmedieval period from Middenbeemster were studied. Standard osteological methods for sex and age estimation were used. From digital photographs of the femora, the

Preconditioning and triggering of offshore slope failures and turbidity currents revealed by most detailed monitoring yet at a fjord-head delta [PDF]

, 2016
Rivers and turbidity currents are the two most important sediment transport processes by volume on Earth. Various hypotheses have been proposed for triggering of turbidity currents offshore from river mouths, including direct plunging of river discharge,

Tissue‐Specific and Spatially Dependent Metabolic Signatures Perturbed by Injury in Male and Female Mice

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoarthritis, the leading cause of disability worldwide, disproportionately affects women, yet sex remains an overlooked determinant. This disparity stems from sex‐specific differences in injury susceptibility—a major risk factor for disease.

Effects of brackish water irrigation on biomass allocation and carbon, nitrogen stoichiometry in Lonicera japonica

Scientific Reports
Cultivation of honeysuckle, Lonicera japonica, irrigated with brackish-water, represents a new way to exploit saline–alkali land in the Yellow River Delta. However, how L. japonica responds to brackish-water irrigation is not clear.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
