In this chapter, we provide a brief introduction to recent work in linguistics that has its origin and motivation in formal linguistics and theoretical acquisition research, and on this basis indicates potential connections and contributions to language pedagogy, including students’ and teachers’ beliefs about what ‘grammar’ actually is.
Mapping in situ eddy covariance measurements of terrestrial land–atmosphere fluxes to the globe is a key method for diagnosing the Earth system from a data-driven perspective. We describe the first global products (called X-BASE) from a newly implemented upscaling framework, FLUXCOM-X, representing an advancement from the previous generation of FLUXCOM products in terms of flexibility and technica
Monitoring the changes of ecosystem functioning is pivotal for understanding the global carbon cycle. Despite its size and contribution to the global carbon cycle, Africa is largely understudied in regard to ongoing changes of its ecosystem functioning and their responses to climate change. One of the reasons is the lack of long-term in situ data. Here, we use eddy covariance to quantify the net e
Current analyses and predictions of spatially explicit patterns and processes in ecology most often rely on climate data interpolated from standardized weather stations. This interpolated climate data represents long-term average thermal conditions at coarse spatial resolutions only. Hence, many climate-forcing factors that operate at fine spatiotemporal resolutions are overlooked. This is particu
A regression was established according to Wald's method for the estimation of forest productivity in the study area. A correlation of 0.58 was found between productivity (m3sk/ha/year) and TM4/TM3. The 198 compartments which were included in the study were divided into four groups on basis of their productivity. The correlation between observed productivity and estimated productivity was 0.59. The
Hepcidin is an essential regulator of systemic iron availability mediating both iron uptake from the diet and its release from body stores. Abnormally high hepcidin levels resulting from inflammation in chronic diseases cause iron restriction with the onset of anemia. Restoring physiological levels of hepcidin could contribute to ameliorating anemia in these patients. Heparin derivatives are known
Objectives Physical function is often a main focus of knee injury rehabilitation, but recent recommendations include increasing attention to psychological factors. We have developed the MOTor Imagery to Facilitate Sensorimotor re-learning (MOTIFS) training model which integrates dynamic motor imagery into physical rehabilitation. The objective is to report interim analysis results of an adaptive r
The onset of resistance to artemisinin for malaria treatment has stimulated the quest for novel antimalarial drugs. Herein, the gold(III) coordination complexes Aubipy [Au(bipy)Cl]+ (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine), Auphen [Au(phen)Cl]+ (phen = phenanthroline), Auterpy [Au(terpy)Cl]2+ (terpy = 2,2';6',2″-terpyridine), and corresponding hydrolyzed species, have been investigated as inhibitors of the Plasmo
Forests have seen a strong greening trend worldwide, and previous studies have attributed this mainly to land-use conversions such as afforestation. However, for the greening of existing forests, the role of human interventions is unclear. Here we paired neighboring natural and planted forests in Southern China to minimize the differences between the forest types and analyzed the vegetation index
In unconventional superconductors, coupled charge and lattice degrees of freedom can manifest in ordered phases of matter that are intertwined. In the cuprate family, fluctuating short-range charge correlations can coalesce into a longer-range charge density wave (CDW) order which is thought to intertwine with superconductivity, yet the nature of the interaction is still poorly understood. Here, b
Dragonflies are poikilothermic animals with limited thermoregulation; therefore, their entire bodies, including the brain, experience a range of temperatures during their daily activities.1,2 These flying insects exhibit hunting prowess, pursuing prey or conspecifics whether in direct sunlight or under the cover of cloud.3,4 Likely to underlie these aerobatic feats are the small target motion dete
The capacity for organic micropollutant removal in granular activated carbon (GAC) filters for wastewater treatment changes over time. These changes are in general attributed to changes in adsorption, but may in some cases also be affected by biological degradation. Knowledge on the degradation of organic micropollutants, however, is scarce. In this work, the degradation of micropollutants in seve
Wheat straw (WS) constitutes a considerable biomass resource and can be used to produce the energy carrier methane through anaerobic digestion. Due to the low contents of several nutrient elements and water in harvested WS, the use of sewage sludge (SS), consisting of primary sludge and waste-activated sludge, as a nutrient source in co-digestion with steam-pretreated wheat straw (PWS) was investi
We used infrared reflection microspectroscopy for chemical imaging of urinary calculi and showed that contribution of diffuse reflection, influencing the imaging results, can be suppressed by decreasing surface roughness and (or) increasing wavelength of infrared radiation applied for the imaging.
This article examines how the potato is used as a crisis strategy and future practiceby a group of actors from a youth education center in Skåne, with connections to alternativeagricultural movements, hereunder among others the permaculture movementand the grassroots movement Potatisuppropet. The article is a derivative effectof the dissertation project, Living Alternative Futures: Mobilising thro
This paper presents the results of the 2022 Groundwater Time Series Modelling Challenge, where 15 teams from different institutes applied various data-driven models to simulate hydraulic-head time series at four monitoring wells. Three of the wells were located in Europe and one was located in the USA in different hydrogeological settings in temperate, continental, or subarctic climates. Participa
