The local health impacts of natural resource booms
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.World Bank, 2023-02)
This paper uses novel micro-data on natural resources and administrative health data in Brazil to study how economic booms in minerals affect health at birth. By implementing a reduced-form estimation of shift-share research ...
Evaluating Northern Hemisphere Growing Season Net Carbon Flux in Climate Models Using Aircraft Observations
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.University of California, 2023-02)
Understanding terrestrial ecosystems and their response to anthropogenic climate change requires quantification of land-atmosphere carbon exchange. However, top-down and bottom-up estimates of large-scale land-atmosphere ...
Can Hydrological Models Benefit From Using Global Soil Moisture, Evapotranspiration, and Runoff Products as Calibration Targets?
(NASA Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (SEDAC)Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-02)
Hydrological models are usually calibrated to in-situ streamflow observations with reasonably long and uninterrupted records. This is challenging for poorly gage or ungaged basins where such information is not available. ...
Super-Strong Hydrogel Composites Reinforced with PBO Nanofibers for Cartilage Replacement
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Imperial College Press, 2023-02)
Cartilage replacement materials exhibiting a set of demanding properties such as high water content, high mechanical stiffness, low friction, and excellent biocompatibility are quite difficult to achieve. Here, ...
Between two trees: Environmental effects of I. micheliana and A. latifolia on leaf litter ants in a coffee agroecosystem
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-02)
Shade trees provide important ecological services that support productivity in coffee agroforestry systems. Processes such as biological nitrogen fixation play a key role in this. Less is known, however, about potential ...
Mycorrhizal fungal and tree root functional traits: Strategies for integration and future directions
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-02)
Plant functional traits offer ecologists quantifiable characteristics that may be used to determine the underlying mechanisms and drivers of processes at scales ranging from individual plants to entire ecosystems. While ...
High-Throughput Cellular Heterogeneity Analysis in Cell Migration at the Single-Cell Level (Small 6/2023)
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-02)
Loss of oligodendrocyte ErbB receptor signaling leads to hypomyelination, reduced density of parvalbumin-expressing interneurons, and inhibitory function in the auditory cortex
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-02)
For a long time, myelin was thought to be restricted to excitatory neurons, and studies on dysmyelination focused primarily on excitatory cells. Recent evidence showed that axons of inhibitory neurons in the neocortex are ...
High-Throughput Cellular Heterogeneity Analysis in Cell Migration at the Single-Cell Level
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-02)
Cancer cell migration represents an essential step toward metastasis and cancer deaths. However, conventional drug discovery focuses on cytotoxic and growth-inhibiting compounds rather than inhibitors of migration. Drug ...
A hydrological prediction system based on the SVS land-surface scheme: efficient calibration of GEM-Hydro for streamflow simulation over the Lake Ontario basin
(European Geosciences Union, 2017-09-28)
This work explores the potential of the distributed GEM-Hydro runoff modeling platform, developed at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) over the last decade. More precisely, the aim is to develop a robust ...
