Towards a Scientific Governance of the Earth System: A risk-based epistemological perspective on the evolution of international climate governance

Climate governance has historically been structured around the mitigation of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Although this approach has been fundamental, the growing complexity of the Earth System calls for an expansion of the conceptual foundations underpinning global ac...

Cluster preserving recursive feature elimination framework for intrusion detection in smart industry systems

Abstract Cyber-physical systems, Industrial IoT, and Industry 4.0 infrastructures are converging rapidly, due to which the attack surface of industrial environments has grown substantially. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are now central to operational security, yet conventiona...

Recurrent catamenial pneumothorax initially misdiagnosed as gallbladder disease requiring escalated surgical management: a case report

Catamenial pneumothorax is an uncommon manifestation of thoracic endometriosis syndrome, characterized by recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax occurring in synchronization with the menstrual cycle. It is frequently underdiagnosed due to atypical presentations and insufficient clini...

So similar, yet so different: comparing the US GAAP and IFRS experience at eliciting greater transparency on pension asset disclosures

Abstract We exploit two regulatory changes, one under US GAAP and the other under IFRS, that mandate improved disclosure of pension asset allocation. While the changes are otherwise similar, US GAAP retains the expected rate of return (“ERR”) on pension assets, which preparers ca...

In Situ Series Resistance Estimation of an Off-Grid PV String by Charge-Controller Actuation: A Feasibility Case Study Within a Digital Twin Framework

Series resistance (Rs) is one of the most informative single parameters for the state of health of a photovoltaic (PV) string. Determining it without a curve tracer or interrupting production remains difficult, because maximum power point (MPP) tracking (MPPT) confines operation...

Ensemble machine learning-based scaling up of wetland carbon dynamics across the Southeastern U.S.

Abstract Background Although the Southeastern United States (SE US) has been identified as a major terrestrial carbon sink, the balance of CO 2 and CH 4 fluxes from its wetlands remains poorly constrained due to strong environmental heterogeneity and limited regional-scale assess...

Effect of dietary inclusion of rumen-protected flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum) on intake, ingestive behavior, diet particle selectivity, digestibility, nitrogen balance, and blood parameters of lambs

Abstract This study evaluated the effects of rumen-protected flaxseed oil (RPFO; 30% flaxseed free oil and 70% carnauba wax) on intake, digestibility, ingestive behavior, nitrogen balance, and blood parameters in crossbred male lambs (Santa Inês × mixed breed). Fifty lambs (20.5...

Using the housekeeping gene cpn60 as a marker for microbial community profiling and viability assessment

Abstract High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized microbiome research, yet distinguishing viable from nonviable microbes in complex communities remains challenging. Microbial viability underlines microbiome function, which is mostly driven by living, active members. Transcri...

Taking a clinical history in adolescents and adults presenting with seizures or epilepsy

Abstract Despite advances in EEG, neuroimaging, and other diagnostic technologies, a carefully obtained clinical history remains the cornerstone of diagnosis, classification, and treatment planning. However, structured guidance on history‐taking that integrates state‐of‐the‐art e...

“DNA damage activates cGAS-STING signaling through ROS dependent p62 recruitment”

Abstract Ionizing radiation (IR) induces DNA damage that activates innate immunity through the cyclic GMP–AMP synthase (cGAS) pathway, yet the mechanisms determining why only a subset of radiation-induced micronuclei (MNi) become cGAS-positive remain unclear. Here, we investigate...

Token-Generation-Control-Deterministic-Logical-Timeline

Text generation by large language models is essentially a probabilistic sampling process: the model computes a probability distribution over the next token based on the input context, and then samples a token from that distribution. This probabilistic design gives large models cr...

Modulation of Mechanical Quenching Properties and Analysis of the Mechano‐Optical Conversion Mechanism in ZnS

ABSTRACT Mechano‐optical responsive materials exhibit changes in luminescence intensity upon mechanical stimulation, demonstrating efficient force‐to‐optical conversion characteristics. These materials hold broad application prospects in areas such as stress sensors, flexible wea...

3D virtual reconstruction: usefulness in preoperative planning for oncologic renal surgery in children

Preoperative planning for complex pediatric renal masses can be challenging, especially when nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) is recommended. We report our experience using 3D virtual reconstruction (3DVR) and its impact on surgical decision making. Patients with complex renal masse...

Simulation and Testing of Structural Composite Materials Exposed to Fire Degradation

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites are attractive for load-bearing aeronautical structures, but their use near fire zones is limited by matrix pyrolysis and the loss of through-thickness integrity. Validating thermo-structural models requires temperature data from inside the lam...

Cyclic Vertex Groups and Integral Toric Restriction

Let K be the dual boundary complex of a compact simple polytope, and let an integral matrix define a coordinate-torus quotient, with nonsingular restriction at each vertex. We show that restriction from coordinate-torus equivariant cohomology to the kernel subgroup is surjective...

Non-Commutative Rough Battery Dynamics (NC-RBD) Subsuming High-Energy-Density and All-Solid-State Battery Limits via UROA, STCT, and RQIG

All-solid-state and high-energy-density batteries are conventionally bounded by solid-solid interfacial resistance, anode volume expansion, and severe scale-up degradation. This paper supersedes these views by establishing Non-Commutative Rough Battery Dynamics (NC-RBD) within th...

Air Quality and Emission Trends Following the 2021 Environmental Code Reform in Kazakhstan Across Regions and Industrial Sectors

The 2021 revision of the Environmental Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan was introduced to align with the World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines and the national carbon neutrality strategy for 2060. The revised Code reflects a transformation of environmental gove...
