Temperature and burning history affect emissions of greenhouse gases and aerosol particles from tropical peatland fire by Kuwata, Mikinori, Kai, Fuu Ming, Yang, Liudongqing, Itoh, Masayuki, Gunawan, Haris, Harvey, Charles F.

“…In addition, CH4 emitted by burning charcoal, which is derived from previously burned peat, was lower by at least an order of magnitude than that from fresh peat. These results highlight the importance of both fire history and heating temperature for the composition of tropical peat-fire emissions. …”

Comparative statics with adjustment costs and the Le Chatelier principle by Dekel, E, Quah, JK-H, Sinander, L

“…We use this insight to prove a general Le Chatelier principle: under the ordinal complementarity assumptions, if short-run adjustment is subject to a monotone cost, then the long-run response to a shock is greater than the short-run response. …”

Toxicity, permeability and drug-metabolizing enzyme activities of curcumin analogues by Yakubu, Ndatsu

“…Hence, two curcumin analogues, which are 2,6-bis(2,5-dimethoxybenzy-lidene)cyclohexanone (BDMC33) and 2,6-bis(2-fluorobenzylidene)cyclohexanone (MS65) with potent anti-inflammatory activities than curcumin were synthesized by our research group. …”

Tablets, Pens, and Pencils: The Influence of Tools on Sketching in Early Stage Design by Das, Madhurima, Huang, May, Yang, Maria C

“…We ask three mixed gender groups of participants (using pen, pencil, and a tablet) to sketch concepts in response to an open-ended design prompt. We hypothesize that participants using tablet and pencil will produce fewer drawings than those using pen due to their ability to erase and focus on perfecting drawings, and we expect participants using the tablet to produce cleaner drawings with smoother strokes due to the tablet’s ability to auto-smooth lines. …”

The Relationship between Linguistic Representations in Biological and Artificial Neural Networks by Kauf, Carina

“…For example, we do not have the option to learn about the neural circuits that support these capabilities by studying simpler systems than the human brain, such as animal models. However, recent advances in engineering have provided new tools for studying language: artificial neural network language models (LMs), which exhibit remarkable linguistic capabilities and are fully intervenable. …”
