Livestock activity biomarkers: Estimating domestication and diet of livestock in ancient samples
(Elsevier, 2021-12)
[EN]Faecal matter is commonly recovered from archaeological sites related to human/animal activity. The identification of its source is essential to understand the domestication process and the relationship between humans ...
An explanation for the isotopic offset between soil and stem water in a temperate tree species
(New Phytologist Trust, 2020)
A growing number of field studies report isotopic offsets between stem water and its potential sources that prevent the unambiguous identification of plant water origin using water isotopes. We explored the causes of this ...
Future impacts of ozone driven damages on agricultural systems
(Elsevier, 2020)
Current ozone (O3) concentration levels entail significant damages in crop yields around the world. The reaction of the emitted precursors (mostly methane and nitrogen oxides) with solar radiation contribute to O3 levels ...
Incidental changes in orthographic processing in the native language as a function of learning a new language late in life
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2021)
Acquiring a second alphabetic language also entails learning a new set of orthographic rules and
specific patterns of grapheme combinations (namely, the orthotactics). The present longitudinal
study aims to investigate ...
A Review of Possible EEG Markers of Abstraction, Attentiveness and Memorisation in Cyber-Physical Systems for Special Education
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11-02)
[EN]Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) for special education rely on effective mental and brain processing during the lesson, performed with the assistance of humanoid robots. The improved diagnostic ability of the CPS is a ...
Conditional Wave Function Theory: A Unified Treatment of Molecular Structure and Nonadiabatic Dynamics
(American Chemical Society, 2021-11-09)
[EN] We demonstrate that a conditional wave function theory enables a unified and efficient treatment of the equilibrium structure and nonadiabatic dynamics of correlated electron-ion systems. The conditional decomposition ...
Forces Driving the Development of Particle Morphology of Waterborne Polymer Dispersions
(Wiley, 2021-12)
[EN] Particle morphology is a key characteristic of the waterborne polymer dispersions and plenty of effort has been dedicated to understand the mechanisms controlling the development of the morphology during polymerization. ...
Mother-Child and Father-Child Relationships in Emerging Adults from Divorced and Non-Divorced Families
(MDPI, 2021-10-13)
The main aim of this study was to analyze the associations between parental divorce and interparental conflict with the quality of parent-child relationships. Specifically, we analyzed trust, communication and alienation ...
On Weighted Simpson’s 38 Rule
(MDPI, 2021-10-14)
Numerical approximations of definite integrals and related error estimations can be made using Simpson’s rules (inequalities). There are two well-known rules: Simpson’s 13 rule or Simpson’s quadrature formula and Simpson’s ...
Identification of loci associated with pathological outcomes in Holstein cattle infected with Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis using whole-genome sequence data
(Nature Research, 2021-10-11)
[EN]Bovine paratuberculosis (PTB), caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), is a chronic granulomatous enteritis that affects cattle worldwide. According to their severity and extension, PTB-associated ...
