The ecological adaptability of Phragmites australis to interactive effects of water level and salt stress in the Yellow River Delta [PDF]

, 2017
Soil salinity and waterlogging are two major environmental problems in estuarine wetlands. To prevent the typical wetland plants from degradation by soil salinization and salt waterlogging and more effectively use the plants to provide wetland ecosystem ...

Encapsulated Leptin‐Producing Cells Facilitate Entrainment of Circadian Rhythms in Rodents and Nonhuman Primates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A clinically translatable cell line can be engineered to produce leptin, encapsulated in biomaterial and safely implanted to produce and deliver the metabolic regulating protein within the body. Implantation of these encapsulated cells decreases the time it takes for mice and non‐human primates to adjust to circadian disruptions similar to those ...

Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Mitigating the Heat: The Role of AI Technology in Shielding Corporate Environmental Performance From Extreme Temperatures—Difference‐in‐Differences Evidence From Chinese Listed Firms

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat has become a recurring operational challenge that disrupts production, raises energy and maintenance needs, and makes it harder for firms to sustain environmental performance. However, it remains less clear whether AI‐related capability is associated with firms' ability to maintain environmental performance under recurring extreme‐
