Enhanced photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue using aluminum and cerium co-doped ZnO nanocompositeNARA Subscribed
Photocatalysis has emerged as an established and environmentally sustainable approach for degrading biological pollutants into less hazardous substances. In this work, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods co-doped with aluminum and cerium were produced via a single-step hydrothermal technique. The aluminum and cerium co-doped zinc oxide (ACZn) nanocomposite was investigated for structural, morphological, optical, and charge transfer kine...

Modeling Wildfire Effects on Ecosystem Services in two Disparate California Watersheds and CommunitiesNARA Subscribed
Ecosystem services are important for human well-being and for sustaining environmental quality objectives. Growing concern over extreme wildfire events in various watersheds necessitates understanding their impacts on regulating ecosystems services. Past studies have documented how wildfires regulate ecosystem services, but the distributional impacts of such ecosystem services across various human settlements (i.e. communities...
Seventy five percent of the world's food crops benefit from insect pollination. Hence, there has been increased interest in how global change drivers impact this critical ecosystem service. Because standardized data on crop pollination are rarely available, we are limited in our capacity to understand the variation in pollination benefits to crop yield, as well as to anticipate changes in this service, develop predictions, and...
Common, low-frequency, rare, and ultra-rare coding variants contribute to COVID-19 severityNARA Subscribed
The combined impact of common and rare exonic variants in COVID-19 host genetics is currently insufficiently understood. Here, common and rare variants from whole-exome sequencing data of about 4000 SARS-CoV-2-positive individuals were used to define an interpretable machine-learning model for predicting COVID-19 severity. First, variants were converted into separate sets of Boolean features, depending on the absence or the pr...
Deafness, the most frequent sensory deficit in humans, is extremely heterogeneous with hundreds of genes involved. Clinical and genetic analyses of an extended consanguineous family with pre-lingual, moderate-to-profound autosomal recessive sensorineural hearing loss, allowed us to identify CLRN2, encoding a tetraspan protein, as a new deafness gene. Homozygosity mapping followed by exome sequencing identified a 14.96 Mb locus...
