SurfaceProton ReservoirsConstrain Alkalinity Exportfrom Enhanced Weathering

Abstract The addition of silicate and carbonate materials to soils (enhanced weathering) is a proposed carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy with potential agronomic co-benefits, especially for soil pH management. However, alkalinity from mineral dissolution interacts with the su...

Simulating exciton transport with complex absorbing potentials

We introduce a stochastic framework based on complex absorbing potentials (CAPs) to investigate exciton transport in large molecular aggregates. Within this framework, CAPs act as non-Hermitian reservoirs and sinks, enabling an effective assessment of transport efficiency. We app...

2D hydrodynamical simulations of Be star decretion disc formation through boundary layer effects

Abstract Be stars are massive main-sequence stars rotating close to their breakup rate. They possess a decretion disc of material built up due to mass loss from the star, however, there is not a consensus to the mechanism responsible for the formation of the disc because of their...

Insecticide resistance profile and efficacy of next-generation LLINs against pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. in M’bé, central Côte d’Ivoire

Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLIN) combining pyrethroids with synergists or partner insecticides represent the next-generation tools for controlling malaria transmitted by resistant vectors. Because of their differing modes of action, their deployment in a given area would req...

Forecasting Visitor Activity in a Historic Urban District: A Machine-Learning Framework for Destination Management

Historic urban districts face growing challenges in balancing visitor activity with the needs of residents, local businesses, accessibility, and mobility. This study investigates whether short-term visitor forecasts can support destination management and planning in these complex...

Availability and Quality of Electronic Health Record Data to Track Physical Function Across a Care Transition

ABSTRACT Introduction Physical function (PF) is critical to quality of life and healthcare value, especially for older adults following hospitalization. Monitoring PF supports recovery, reduces adverse events, and improves care transitions. Despite the potential of electronic hea...

Poor agreement between bioreactance and echocardiography during passive leg raising in patients with shock

Passive leg raising (PLR) is commonly used to assess fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients. Transthoracic echocardiography is frequently used to measure stroke volume changes during PLR but requires operator expertise and adequate image acquisition. Bioreactance-based m...
