Bats from different foraging guilds prey upon the pine processionary moth
(PeerJ, 2019-03-08)
Outbreaks of the processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Denis & Schiffer-mailer, 1775), a forest pest from the Palearctic, are thought to induce a behavioral response of bats, but up to now the moth has been seldom ...
Synthesis of macrocyclic poly(ethylene oxide)s containing a protected thiol group: a strategy for decorating gold surfaces with ring polymers
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-12-21)
We introduce an approach to synthesize macrocyclic poly(ethylene oxide)s containing a pendant protected thiol group (pSH-CPEO), which is demonstrated to be able to attach to gold surfaces without prior deprotection. Our ...
Evaluation of Cu/SAPO-34 Catalysts Prepared by Solid-State and Liquid Ion-Exchange Methods for NOx Removal by NH3-SCR
(American Chemical Society, 2019-09-17)
Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts are prepared using solid-state ion exchange (SSIE) and liquid ion exchange (LIE). SSIE is conducted by calcining a physical mixture of H-SAPO-34 zeolite and CuO nanoparticles at elevated temperatures ...
Reproducibility dataset for a large experimental survey on word embeddings and ontology-based methods for word similarity
(Elsevier, 2019-10-26)
This data article introduces a reproducibility dataset with the aim of allowing the exact replication of all experiments, results and data tables introduced in our companion paper (Lastra-Diaz et al., 2019), which introduces ...
Organocatalyzed Polymerization of PET-mb-poly(oxyhexane) Copolymers and Their Self-Assembly into Double Crystalline Superstructures
(ACS Publications, 2019-08-30)
Double crystalline multi-block copolymers exhibit two well-defined melting temperatures associated with the two phases formed by their constituent blocks. The crystalline superstructure formed in these copolymers is complex ...
Pest consumption in a vineyard system by the lesser horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus hipposideros)
(Public Library of Science, 2019-07-18)
Herbivorous arthropods cause immense damage in crop production annually. Consumption of these pests by insectivorous animals is of significant importance to counteract their adverse effects. Insectivorous bats are considered ...
Complex Networks and Machine Learning: From Molecular to Social Sciences
(MDPI, 2019-11)
Combining complex networks analysis methods with machine learning (ML) algorithms have become a very useful strategy for the study of complex systems in applied sciences. Noteworthy, the structure and function of such ...
Cannabidiol Administration Prevents Hypoxia-Ischemia-Induced Hypomyelination in Newborn Rats
(Frontiers Media, 2019-09-26)
Neonatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI) is a risk factor for myelination disturbances, a key factor for cerebral palsy. Cannabidiol (CBD) protects neurons and glial cells after HI insult in newborn animals. We hereby aimed to study ...
Radiomics and Texture Analysis in Laryngeal Cancer. Looking for New Frontiers in Precision Medicine through Imaging Analysis
(MDPI, 2019-09-20)
Radiomics and texture analysis represent a new option in our biomarkers arsenal. These techniques extract a large number of quantitative features, analyzing their properties to incorporate them in clinical decision-making. ...
Indoor Crowd 3D Localization in Big Buildings from Wi-Fi Access Anonymous Data
(MDPI, 2019-09-27)
Indoor crowd localization and counting in big public buildings pose problems of infrastructure deployment, signal processing, and privacy. Conventional approaches based on optical cameras, either in the visible or infrared ...
