The widely heralded decarbonization of economies is a significant intervention in countries' societal metabolism, which eliminates the use of fossil fuels but also requires renewing societal stocks such as buildings, vehicles, and power plants, which in turn requires materials and energy. The circular economy (CE) shifts a country's metabolism toward less material demand, waste, and emissions, moving away from a linear resourc...
Innovative Pathways for the use of Excavation Materials in the Frame of the Future Circular Collider ProjectNARA Subscribed
Based a recommendation of the European strategy of particle physics of 2020 due to the great research success of the last decade CERN is planning a new circular collider with a circumference of approximately 91 km. To start construction in the middle 2030s a feasibility study is underway which includes scientific and financial components as well as territorial aspects such as geology, environment, technical infrastructure and...
Soil water availability modulates the response of grapevine leaf gas exchange and PSII traits to a simulated heat waveNARA Subscribed
Background and aims A better understanding of plant carbon assimilation, water status and photosystem performance responses to combined heat and drought stress would help to optimize grapevine management under such limiting conditions. Methods Gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were measured in potted grapevines, cv Sauvignon Blanc, before, during and after simulated six-day heat (T max = 40 °C) wave using he...
The correlation between eBird community science and weather surveillance radar‐based estimates of migration phenologyNARA Subscribed
Aim Measuring avian migration can prove challenging given the spatial scope and the diversity of species involved. No one monitoring technique provides all the pertinent measures needed to capture this macroscale phenomenon – emphasizing the need for data integration. Migration phenology is a key metric characterizing large‐scale migration dynamics and has been successfully quantified using weather surveillance radar (WSR) dat...
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 is the most common autosomal dominant inherited ataxia worldwide, caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the Ataxin-3 gene resulting in a polyglutamine (polyQ)-expansion in the corresponding protein. The disease is characterized by neuropathological, phenotypical, and specific transcriptional changes in affected brain regions. So far, there is no mouse model available representing all the different a...
The complement system is an important defense mechanism against pathogens; however, in certain pathologies, the system also attacks human cells, such as red blood cells (RBCs). In paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), RBCs lack certain complement regulators which sensitize them to complement-mediated lysis, while in autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), antibodies against RBCs may initiate complement-mediated hemolysis. In...
The quorum‐sensing systems of Vibrio campbellii DS40M4 and BB120 are genetically and functionally distinctNARA Subscribed
Summary Vibrio campbellii BB120 (previously classified as Vibrio harveyi ) is a fundamental model strain for studying quorum sensing in vibrios. A phylogenetic evaluation of sequenced Vibrio strains in Genbank revealed that BB120 is closely related to the environmental isolate V. campbellii DS40M4. We exploited DS40M4's competence for exogenous DNA uptake to rapidly generate greater than 30 isogenic strains with deletions of g...
Bioaerosol measurements over a fattening period in a pig barn focused on the presence of Staphylococcus spp.NARA Subscribed
The investigation of bioaerosols in the recent years has become more important both indoors and outdoors. Due to expanding of livestock farm capacity, raising attention is paid to this source of emissions. The objective of the present study was to estimate the distribution of bioaerosols in the animal husbandry and its surroundings. Over 2 fattening periods with different animal ages and weights, the main emphasis was put on t...
