Combined plasmonic nanocrystals and metal–organic framework
thin-films are fabricated for sensing gases in the near-infrared
range. This nanocomposite thin-film shows a highly sensitive response
in near-infrared absorption, which is attributed to...

Inherent nanomaterial characteristics, composition,
surface chemistry, and primary particle size,
are known to impact particle stability, uptake, and
toxicity. Nanocomposites challenge our ability to predict
nanoparticle reactivity in biological...

Open Educational Resources (OER) are increasingly used
in the higher education landscape as a solution for a variety of
copyright, publishing and cost-prohibiting issues. While OERs are
becoming more common, reports of usability tests that...

We report a novel cancer-targeted nanomedicine platform for imaging and prospect
for future treatment of unresected ovarian cancer tumors by intraoperative multimodal phototherapy.
To develop the required theranostic system, novel low-oxygen...

Hop downy mildew (DM) is an obligate
parasite causing severe losses in hop if not controlled.
Resistance to this pathogen is a primary goal for hop
breeding programs. The objective of this study was to
identify QTLs linked to DM resistance....

All parasitoid apostome ciliates infecting krill in the northeastern Pacific are currently
assigned to the genus Pseudocollinia. Each krill specimen is apparently infected by only 1
Pseudocollinia species. We describe Pseudocollinia similis sp....

Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) forests are characterized by unusually high understory plant species
diversity, but models describing understory ground cover biomass, and hence fuel load dynamics, are
scarce for this fire-dependent...

Temperate forests play an important role in the global
carbon cycle, and are thought to currently be a sink for
atmospheric CO₂. However, we lack understanding of
the drivers of forest carbon accumulation and loss,
hampering our ability to predict...

The Columbia Basin once supported a diversity of native fishes and large runs of anadromous salmonids
that sustained substantial fisheries and cultural values. Extensive land conversion, watershed disruptions,
and subsequent fishery declines have...

In this work, we revisit the upscaling process of diffusive mass transfer of a solute
undergoing a homogeneous reaction in porous media using the method of volume averaging.
For linear reaction rate kinetics, the upscaled model exhibits a...
