For the numerical simulation of rainwater infiltration in forest slope, information on the water retention curve (WRC), which shows spatial variability due to the forest ecosystem and weathered granite in natural forest soils, is required. A scaling...
Graphene waste has had enormous growth due to many industrial applications. Agriculture exploits waste through the circular economy, and graphene waste is thereby investigated in this study as a soil conditioner for improving the physical–hydra...
Most existing assembly accuracy analysis methods focus on rigid assemblies or assume assemblies to be rigid bodies, neglecting the influence of assembly deformation in weak rigid components (WRCs) such as thin-walled structures, cantilever structures...
The CYFIP2 protein (cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 2) is part of the WAVE regulatory complex (WRC). CYFIP2 was recently correlated to neurological disorders by the association of the R87C variant with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (E...
We evaluated whether wrist circumference (WrC), as a novel anthropometric measure, is associated with incidences of any fractures. The study population included 8288 adults (45.3% men) aged ≥30 years, who were followed for incidences of any fractu...
The water retention curve (WRC) of a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) is influenced by the presence of exchangeable cations in the leachate during changes in water content in a landfill construction. This research aims to investigate the impact of salin...
Soil hydraulic properties are central for soil quality and affect forest productivity and the impacts of climate change on forests. The water retention characteristics (WRC) of mineral forest soils in Finland are not well known, and practical tools t...
A large number of local and global databases for soil, land use, crops, and climate are now available from different sources, which often differ, even when addressing the same spatial and temporal resolutions. As the correct database is unknown, thei...
Differing from the hot-pressing method in the manufacturing of traditional wood-rubber composites (WRCs), this study was aimed at fabricating WRCs using rubber processing to improve water resistance and mechanical properties. Three steps were used to...
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) in the spectral range of 400–1000 nm was tested to differentiate three different particle size fractions of milk powder. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was performed to observe the relationship...
The rice–fish co-culture is an important model of carp farming in China; however, research on the dynamics and assembly of water bacterial communities in this system remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the dynamics and assem...
Biocementation is a soil treatment technique wherein bacteria living in soil pores promote the precipitation of calcium carbonate. One of the most recent applications of this treatment is to provide resistance against the erosion of slopes by creatin...
Data science has become an essential component in professional sports, particularly for predicting team performance and outcomes. This study aims to develop and evaluate machine learning models that accurately predict game outcomes in the Chinese Pro...
The advancement of next-generation sequencing has enabled the identification of specific mutations associated with early infantile epileptic encephalopathies (EIEEs). In EIEE, epileptic spasms and seizures that occur since early childhood lead to imp...
Sanitary landfill covers are exposed to varying environmental conditions; hence, the state of the clay layer also changes from saturated to unsaturated. The study aimed to predict the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of the locally available compac...
This study investigated the representative elementary volume (REV) for visible porosity in horticultural growing media (peat, commercial mixture, treated wood fibre/peat, pure wood fibre) using x-ray micro-computed tomography (µCT) with 2D and...
Chile has numerous areas that lack sewage collection, including in the capital city. Sanitation in these cases is managed through individual solutions like septic tanks or small wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) that use biological treatment, usual...
Environmental pressures, such as temperature and light intensity, food, and genetic factors, can cause chicken eggs to develop abnormalities. The common types of internal egg abnormalities include bloody and damaged egg yolk. Spectrometers have been...
Since the late 1970s, satellite missions have monitored Total Solar Irradiance (TSI), providing a long-term record of solar variability. The Digital Absolute Radiometer (DARA), onboard the Chinese Fengyun-3E (FY3E) spacecraft since 4 July 2021, contr...
Flax is an important cash crop globally with a variety of commercial uses. It has been widely used for fiber, oil, nutrition, feed and in composite materials. Growth regulatory factor (GRF) is a transcription factor family unique to plants, and is in...
