Cocoa agroforests sustain ecosystem services (ESs) to varying degrees. These services are otherwise mostly provided by other non-cocoa shade or companion trees. However, the density of shade trees is associated with services and/or disservices that drive farm-specific tree management successions. Considering the growing impacts of climate crisis on...
Segmental duplications or low copy repeats (LCRs) constitute duplicated regions interspersed in the human genome, currently neglected in standard analyses due to their extreme complexity. Recent functional studies have indicated the potential of genes within LCRs in synaptogenesis, neuronal migration, and neocortical expansion in the human lineage....
Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) is a robust multiple access scheme for downlink multi-antenna wireless networks. RSMA relies on multi-antenna Rate-Splitting (RS) at the transmitter and Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) at the receivers. In this work, we study the performance of RSMA under the important setup of imperfect Channel Stat...
Cyperus prophyllatus, an endangered new species of Cyperus (Cyperaceae) from an aquatic ecosystem of the Atlantic Forest, Espirito Santo State, southeastern Brazil, is described and illustrated. The spikelet morphology of Cyperus prophyllatus is unique among the c. 950 species of Cyperus in having both a conspicuous spikelet prophyll and a corky ra...
The West Siberian Basin (WSB) is one of the largest intracratonic Meso-Cenozoic basins in the world. Its evolution has been studied over the recent decades; however, some fundamental questions regarding the tectonic evolution of the WSB remain unresolved or unconfirmed by analytical data. A complete understanding of the evolution of the WSB during ...
In this paper, the turbulence fields generated by a group of modified fractal grids, referred to as the rectangular fractal grids (RFGs), are documented and discussed. The experiments were carried out using hot-wire anemometry in three facilities at Imperial College London and the Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics in Lille, France. Due to the large Rey...

The CAMTA1-associated phenotype was initially defined in patients with intragenic deletions and duplications who showed nonprogressive congenital ataxia, with or without intellectual disability. Here, we describe 10 individuals with CAMTA1 variants: nine previously unreported (likely) pathogenic variants comprising one missense, four frameshift and...
This article was written in honor of Prof. Bernhard Blümich, who has heavily impacted many areas of Magnetic Resonance and, in particular, low-field and portable NMR with numerous advances, concepts, innovations, and applications of this impressive technology. Many years ago, we decided to research and develop single-sided magnets for the area of p...
