Aerosols substantially influence the climate by modifying Earth’s radiative balance and marine biogeochemical cycles. However, accurate quantification of aerosol deposition onto ocean surfaces remains challenging due to the limited direct observations over oceanic regions. Here, to address this observational gap, we use the cosmogenic radionuclide beryllium-7, measured simultaneously in the atmosp
Background: Occupational balance (OB) is a subjective feeling of having the right amount and variety of occupations. Aims/objectives: The study aims to translate the Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OBQ11) into Chinese (OBQ11-C) and to examine its psychometric properties for people with depression in Taiwan. Material/methods: The OBQ11 was translated and reviewed by 10 experts. Subjects with de
Intensity ratio-based phosphor thermometry is a promising technique for instantaneous temperature measurement of fast-moving objects. However, its accuracy is limited by the blueshift effects of interference filters induced by angle of incidence (AOI) variations. This is especially problematic for phosphors with significant temperature-dependent emission band shifts. To address this issue, we prop
Ancient DNA has revolutionized the fields of archaeology and anthropology. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the field of kinship studies. This report provides a reflection on a recent workshop focused on exploring non-biological kinship in light of recent aDNA research. It presents a summary of reflections by workshop participants that emphasized the importance of interdisciplinary collaborat
Background: Epidemiological studies show an increasing incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among people aged 65 years and older. Advances in neurointensive care have improved survival after TBI. There is a need for knowledge about long-term outcome after TBI among older survivors of TBI. Objective: To describe the overall outcome, long-term functioning, and disability of the participants in
The dependence of f0(980) production on the final-state charged-particle multiplicity in p–Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV is reported. The production of f0(980) is measured with the ALICE detector via the f0(980)→π+π− decay channel in a midrapidity region of −0.5
Due to the relatively short duration of earthquakes, most studies simplify their impact on structures by considering the total effect of each event rather than modelling the instantaneous accumulation of damage during the event itself. This approach may underestimate performance degradation, as incremental damage occurring during the shock can lead to an immediate reduction in capacity. Furthermor
Fiducial and total W± and Z boson cross sections, their ratios and the ratio of top-antitop-quark pair and W-boson fiducial cross sections are measured in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13.6 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 29 fb−1 of data collected in 2022 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The measured fiducial cross-section values fo
In this roundtable, we will discuss the role of the kappa, the framing text in a compilation thesis, in STEM doctoral education. Based on two runs of the new courseFraming your research – thesis frames and knowledge contribution for doctoral students at LTH and a focus group discussion with experienced examination committee members and supervisors, we argue that the kappa is an emergent genrestill
Makerspaces and fabrication laboratories (fablabs) have received growing scholarly attention for their potential to advance innovation. These spaces provide individuals access to technological tools while enabling collaboration and community-building around technology-driven activities. Yet, existing research on how innovation unfolds within these settings remains fragmented. This paper reviews an
Objective: To estimate the 12-year risk of radiographic and/or symptomatic knee osteoarthritis following different MRI-confirmed soft-tissue knee injuries. Design: Prospective cohort study including 814 (70 %) of 1129 consecutive patients after acute knee trauma with hemarthrosis in a single hospital. Injuries were classified by sub-acute knee MRI. Follow-up comprised bilateral knee radiography a
The Intermediate Wheatgrass (IWG) Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey, marketed under the trade name Kernza® has been tested in France with a group of farmers since 2017. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a recognized methodology to assess the potential environmental impacts and resources consumption associated with a production system. An attributional LCA following ISO 1404
Climate change pushes species toward higher latitudes and altitudes, but the proximate drivers of range expansions vary, and it is unclear whether evolution facilitates climate change–induced range changes. In a temporally replicated field experiment, we trans-located wall brown butterflies (Lasiommata megera) descending from range interior and range margin populations to sites at 1) the range int
Background: Sjögren’s disease (SjD) is an autoimmune condition affecting exocrine glands, resulting in decreased saliva and tear production. Aquaporin 5 (AQP5) is a transmembrane water channel playing a central role in water transport. In SjD, deregulation of AQP5 expression, trafficking and interactions with various proteins contribute to the underlying disease mechanisms. Methods: Co-immunopreci
