Incorporating non-stomatal limitation improves the performance of leaf and canopy models at high vapour pressure deficit
(Oxford University Press, 2019)
Vapour pressure deficit (D) is projected to increase in the future as temperature rises. In response to increased D, stomatal conductance (gs) and photosynthesis (A) are reduced, which may result in significant reductions ...
A Consistent Procedure Using Response Surface Methodology to Identify Stiffness Properties of Connections in Machine Tools
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Accurate finite element models of mechanical systems are fundamental resources to perform structural analyses at the design stage. However, uncertainties in material properties, boundary conditions, or connections give ...
Improving Communication between Physicians and Their Patients through Mindfulness and Compassion-Based Strategies: A Narrative Review
(MDPI, 2017-05-17)
Communication between physicians and patients is a key pillar of psychosocial support for enhancing the healing process of patients and for increasing their well-being and quality of life. Physicians and other health ...
Natural Pyrrhotite as a Catalyst in Prebiotic Chemical Evolution
(MDPI, 2013-08-28)
The idea of an autotrophic organism as the first living being on Earth leads to the hypothesis of a protometabolic, complex chemical system. In one of the main hypotheses, the first metabolic systems emerged from the ...
A little "more" on comparison: variation and common cognitive and linguistic properties
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2018)
This paper discusses the basic cognitive and linguistic properties of a universal phenomenon: inequality comparison. As will be shown from linguistic and neuropsychological points of view, the cognitive representation of ...
A field portable method for the semi-quantitative estimation of dehydration tolerance of photosynthetic tissues across distantly related land plants.
(2018-12-04)
Desiccation tolerant (DT) plants withstand complete cellular dehydration (reaching relative
water contents below 30% in their photosynthetic tissues), while desiccation sensitive (DS)
plants exhibit different degrees of ...
Selective C(sp2)−H Halogenation of "click" 4-Aryl-1,2,3-triazoles
(American Chemical Society, 2017-02-09)
Selective bromination reactions of “click compounds” are described. Electron-neutral and electron-deficient arenes selectively undergo unprecedented Pd-catalyzed C–H ortho-halogenations assisted by simple triazoles as ...
Effectiveness And Ecotoxicity Of Zero-Valent Iron Nanoparticles During Rhizoremediation Of Soil Contaminated With Zn, Cu, Cd And Diesel
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
The remediation of soils simultaneously contaminated with organic and inorganic compounds is still a challenging task. The application of metallic nanoparticles, such as zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI), for soil ...
Data Analysis in Chemistry and Bio-Medical Sciences
(MDPI, 2016-12-14)
There is an increasing necessity for multidisciplinary collaborations in molecular science between experimentalists and theoretical scientists, as well as among theoretical scientists from different fields. One of the more ...
Differences in the Use and Opinions About New eHealth Technologies Among Patients With Psychosis: Structured Questionnaire
(JMIR Publications, 2018-07-25)
Background: Despite a growing interest in the use of technology in order to support the treatment of psychotic disorders, limited knowledge exists about the viability and acceptability of these eHealth interventions in ...
