Context matters: emotional responses to urban greening interventions depend on city settingNARA Subscribed
Urban green spaces deliver a remarkable range of human health and well-being benefits, and there is substantial, global effort into incorporating urban greening into the design of cities. However, intense competition for space in cities means small interstitial gaps in the urban fabric are being used for many contemporary green spaces, such as planter boxes or raised garden beds. These small urban greening interventions have b...
Introduction Insufficiency of the future liver remnant (FLR) precludes surgery for liver tumors as it is associated with post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). A common strategy to induce pre-operative FLR hypertrophy is portal vein embolization of the tumor bearing liver lobe. More recently, transarterial radio-embolization (radiation lobectomy, RL) has been employed. Direct functional assessment using 99mTc-mebrofenin-hepato...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
The ecological impacts of extreme floods to benthic ecosystems in oceanic environments remain unclear, as events are difficult to observe and quantify. Between 2020 and 2022, an unusually long La Niña resulted in substantial flooding across southeastern Australia. Major floods in the Hawkesbury‐Nepean River led to an unprecedented flood plume extending ~70 km offshore to depths of ~50 m, exposing coastal biodiversity to rare e...
The classical problem of the Darcy-Bénard instability in a horizontal porous layer saturated by a binary fluid mixture and subject to a non-uniform solutal concentration field is revisited. In particular, a generalised anomalous diffusion model departing from the classical Fickian diffusion and accounting for subdiffusion or superdiffusion phenomena is employed. At the porous layer boundaries, a uniform vertical concentration...
The nitrogenase mechanism: new roles for the dangler?NARA Subscribed
Dangler sites protruding from a core metallocluster were introduced into the bioinorganic lexicon in 2000 by R.D. Britt and co-workers in an analysis of the tetramanganese oxygen-evolving cluster in photosystem II. In this perspective, we consider whether analogous dangler sites could participate in the mechanism of dinitrogen reduction by nitrogenase. Two possible roles for dynamic danglers in the active site FeMo cofactor ar...
