Researchers have widely applied discharge simulation using artificial neural networks (ANNs) and have gained prominence in water resources. Morphological features, watershed urbanization, and climate change influence hydrological variables. Thus, data-driven models need to be able to identify the hydrological relationships without explicitly stating the physical processes. The main objectives of t
Context. M-dwarf systems offer an opportunity to study terrestrial exoplanetary atmospheres due to their small size and cool temperatures. However, the extreme conditions imposed by these host stars raise a question about whether their close-in rocky planets are able to retain any atmosphere at all. Aims. The Hot Rocks Survey aims to answer this question by targeting nine different M-dwarf rocky p
The Cerrado sensu stricto, so-called wooded Cerrado, is one of the many phytophysiognomies of the undisturbed Brazilian Cerrado ecoregion holding a biodiversity hotspot towards an extensive area. Thus, such land is under constant land use and cover changes mainly due to the demand for agriculture land, sector with the highest consumption of available freshwater in this ecoregion. This underscores
N1-methyladenine (m1A), a modification of transcripts, regulates mRNA structure and translation efficiency. In a recent issue of Nature, Sun et al. reported that m1A in CAG repeat RNA contributes to CAG repeat expansion-induced neurodegeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila through enhancing the ability of endogenous TDP-43 to partition into stress granules mediated by m1A. The study i
High-resolution phase-contrast 3D imaging using nano-holotomography typically requires collecting multiple tomograms at varying sample-to-detector distances, usually 3 to 4. This multi-distance approach limits temporal resolution, making it impractical for operando studies. Moreover, shifting the sample complicates reconstruction, requiring precise alignment, registration, and interpolation to cor
Tax incentives can be a policy instrument to fund the arts and culture. Such incentives must meet certain rules and principles, including, for EU Member States, EU requirements. In addition, various other aspects must be taken into account in the appreciation of tax incentives as a cultural funding instrument. This includes, on the one hand, notions of fairness, concerns about ‘philanthrocapitalis
We introduce a transfer-matrix-based sequential sampling scheme for generating random samples of ligand arrangements on one-dimensional templates. The number of ligand types is arbitrary, the binding constants can have positional dependence, and cooperativity parameters are included. From the random arrangements, any (linear or nonlinear) observable can be calculated using sample averaging. As an
Objective: To evaluate the impact of pregestational diabetes on duration of active labour (DAL) in induced and spontaneous labour and to compare caesarean section (CS) rates and indications between women with and without diabetes. Design: A population-based cohort study. Setting: Sweden. Population: 243 537 nulliparous women, registered in the Swedish Pregnancy Register, who delivered a singleton
Animals live in diverse environments and have evolved to cope with environmental challenges in different ways. How such adaptations shape overall brain morphology is still unclear. Here, we test how two behavioural adaptations – circadian activity pattern and migratory behaviour – are reflected in the brains of moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera). We predicted that circadian activity pattern affec
The Australian Bogong moth (Agrotis infusa) is a small noctuid moth that undertakes annual, nocturnal migrations of up to 1000 km to escape the summer heat of its breeding grounds. The moths travel to cool alpine caves, where they enter a dormant state (aestivation) before returning to reproduce and die. During migration, their brains integrate magnetic and visual cues to guide their flight direct
We present FACT, a method for predicting alignment quality (i.e., registration error) of registered lidar point cloud pairs. This is useful e.g. for quality assurance of large, automatically registered 3D models. FACT extracts local features from a registered pair and processes them with a point transformer-based network to predict a misalignment class. We generalize prior work that study binary a
Digitalisering av kulturarvssamlingar – vad är det? Den här boken handlar om Vetenskapsrådets Digarvprogram, som pågick mellan 2018 och 2025, och summerar dess skiftande digitaliserings- och forskningsverksamheter. Grundtanken har varit att i fjorton kapitel – ett för varje projekt som ingick i programmet – beskriva vad forskarna ägnat sig åt och resonera om erfarenheter och utmaningar som projekt
Putin kan välja att avsluta kriget i Ukraina – frågan är om han har råd med det. Fred är farligt, i alla fall om man är president i Ryssland. Och respekten för den som tappar makten försvinner snabbt. Att eskalera spänningar är därför en ren självbevarelsedrift. Ukraina är en huvudvärk för Putin, men den är inte hans värsta, skriver historikern Tomas Sniegon vid Lunds universitet.
