The influence of soil age on ecosystem structure and function across biomes by Delgado-Baquerizo, Manuel, Reich, Peter B., Bardgett, Richard D., Eldridge, David J., Lambers, Hans, Wardle, David A., Reed, Sasha C., Plaza, César, Png, Kenny Guochen, Neuhauser, Sigrid, Berhe, Asmeret Asefaw, Hart, Stephen C., Hu, Hang-Wei, He, Ji-Zheng, Bastida, Felipe, Abades, Sebastián, Alfaro, Fernando D., Cutler, Nick A., Gallardo, Antonio, García-Velázquez, Laura, Hayes, Patrick E., Hseu, Zeng-Yei, Pérez, Cecilia A., Santos, Fernanda, Siebe, Christina, Trivedi, Pankaj, Sullivan, Benjamin W., Weber-Grullon, Luis, Williams, Mark A., Fierer, Noah

“…We propose that, regardless of soil age, changes in the environmental context, such as those associated with global climatic and land-use changes, will have important long-term impacts on the structure and function of terrestrial ecosystems across biomes.…”

Nonlinear regression approach for GPS multipath mitigation : from code to carrier-phase measurements by Phan, Quoc Huy

“…Multipath, where GPS signals arrive by more than one path and thereby create a range error, has remained the long-lasting major error source in GPS solutions although having been a target of the GPS research community since the day the system started operating. …”

Micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) enabled digital pen by Tan, Joel Qi Zhi

“…A low pass filter was also applied after the EKF to eliminate any short-term fluctuations while keeping the long-term trend. The output of the filters was then used to plot out the letters in the digital world. …”

Electronic structures of twisted two-dimensional materials studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy by Pei, D

“…Besides, we observed iconic topological surface states with chiral edge modes around the Γ point, forming long Fermi-arc winding across the Brillouin zone. …”

Novel technologies for cell culture and tissue engineering by Ge, C

“…As a result, the ITO-film based heating system was evaluated and constructed successfully to serve as a heating element for long-term static cell culture with facilitated proliferation rate in gas-permeable PDMS microbioreactor outside of conventional incubation.…”

Heterogeneity within colorectal cancer cell lines and epigenetic regulation of CD24 by Ibn Ayub, M

“…Single cell sorting by FACS allowed to isolate and establish these clones which were stable in the culture for long enough (until passage ∼30) to allow their characterisations. …”

Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health: Undermining Public Health, Facilitating Reproductive Coercion by Ahmed, Aziza, Evans, Dabney P, Jackson, Jason, Meier, Benjamin Mason, Tomori, Cecília

“…This commentary situates Dobbs in the context of a long historical shift in public health that increasingly places burdens on individuals for their own reproductive health care, moving away from the possibility of a robust state public health infrastructure.…”

Some Brief Thoughts on Housing Supply and Policy by Saiz, Albert

“…I elucidate the key interactions between supply and demand that generate macroeconomic problems and lack of affordability, and emphasize the distinction between short run and long run housing supply. My main conclusions are not new: policymakers should be aware of the Tinbergen rule. …”

Investigation on ImageNet Remaining Errors with TRAK by Ma, Lingyi

“…With such high accuracy, model predictions are usually of high precision and the causes of this long tail of error are unknown. Many studies have suggested that reassessing Imagenet, a nontrivial amount of label error and noise is found and effort had been made to fix this label noise in the test set, mainly through manual review. …”

Topological recursion for hyperbolic string field theory by Fırat, Atakan H., Valdes-Meller, Nico

“…These volumes can be shown to satisfy a recursion relation through a modification of Mirzakhani’s recursion as long as L ≤ 2 sinh−1 1. Applying the pants decomposition of Riemann surfaces to off-shell string amplitudes, we promote this recursion to hyperbolic string field theory and demonstrate the higher order vertices are determined by the cubic vertex iteratively for any background. …”

Capital accumulation, capital-output ratios and total factor productivity in Singapore by Sng, Hui Ying

“…In Lim’s S-Curve hypothesis (1996, 2004), the rapid accumulation of physical capital is an important driver behind the superlative growth of the Newly Industrializing Economies (NIEs). De Long and Summers (1991, 1993) have also shown that investment in machinery and equipment has a strong association with growth.…”
