Rationalizing Microbial Strategies for Coastal Soil Restoration
Coastal sandy soils pose a challenge for microbial nutrient retention due to low organic matter and high leaching. While plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) show promise, their functional synergies in these ecosystems—particularly beyond phosphorus limitation—remain unclear. We investigated their complementary roles in enhancing soil function and Casuarina equisetifolia growth under nutrient‐depleted…
How meaningfulness and initial learning degree influence associative storage and retrieval processes
Sterile stones
Heated lithics show specific changes contingent upon temperature. • Changes induced by different temperatures can be reconstructed experimentally. • Clusters of heated lithics can contribute to decoding anthropogenic behaviors and taphonomic disturbance. This article explores the relationship between hominins and fire through the analysis of heated lithic artifacts from the Paleolithic site of Românești- Dumbrăvița I in Southwestern Romania. The …
Cultural Adaptations in Community Health Worker-Delivered Mental Health Interventions for U.S Latine Populations
Latine populations in the U.S. face disparities in access to mental health care, particularly to culturally relevant services within their own communities. Community health worker (CHW) delivered mental health interventions are often recognized as a culturally responsive model of care given CHWs’ social proximity with the populations they serve. Drawing upon the ecological validity model of cultural adaptations and the implementation science Fram…

Analysis of the Status and Tendency of R&D Input in the Field of Rare Diseases Funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China
Background: Through collection and sorting of rare disease projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, an understanding was gained of the categories of projects funded by the foundation in the field of rare diseases, types of diseases, categories of disease systems, regional distribution, distribution of supporting institutions, and their dynamic changes, followed by an analysis of focuses and influences of relevant state…
Výsledky rádiokarbónového datovania uhlíkov zo starých výskumov v Košiciach-Barci I a Košiciach-Barci II
Pits and other associated features found at sites along Hornád Valley of Eastern Slovakia have been put forth as examples of early settlement features associated with the early Upper Palaeolithic in Europe. To verify this, we radiocarbon dated charcoal samples from pits found at Košice-Barca I and Košice-Barca II that were recovered during the 1951 – 1954 excavations of F. Prošek. From the Košice-Barca I site, charcoals from Pit 1 with an associa…

Adolescent Perspectives on How an Adjunctive Mobile App for Social Anxiety Treatment Impacts Treatment Engagement in Telehealth Group Therapy
Adjunctive mobile mental health apps to supplement mental health treatment have been growing in recent years given their ability to address treatment engagement barriers. However, few studies have explicitly examined how these mobile apps impact treatment engagement, and even fewer have investigated this topic through adolescents' perspectives. To this end, we conducted semi-structured interviews with five adolescents who used an adjunctive mobil…

A New Perspective on Raising Energy Efficiency
A comparison of the facts at the micro- and macro-level indicates that although some Chinese enterprises are at the international frontier in terms of micro-level energy efficiency, overall energy efficiency at the industrial and national level is seriously lagging behind. Hypotheses based on a market segmentation framework indicate that this is because market segmentation inhibits energy efficiency through its effect on technical efficiency, sca…

Cooler rooms on a hotter planet? Household coping strategies, climate change, and air conditioning usage in rural China
Lithic artifact assemblage transport and microwear modification in a fluvial setting
River processes are widely assumed to have impacted the integrity of lithic assemblages when artifacts are found in fluvial sediments, but the specifics of these influences remain largely unknown. We conducted a real‐world experiment to determine how the initial stages of fluvial entrainment affected lithic artifact assemblages. We inserted replica artifacts with radio frequency identification tags into a gravel‐bedded river in Wales (UK) for sev…
Dynamics of Learning in Neanderthals and Modern Humans
The Danube Corridor Hypothesis and the Carpathian Basin
Early Upper Paleolithic sites in the Danube catchment have been put forward as evidence that the river was an important conduit for modern humans during their initial settlement of Europe. Central to this model is the Carpathian Basin, a region covering most of the Middle Danube. As the archaeological record of this region is still poorly understood, this paper aims to provide a contextual assessment of the Carpathian Basin's geological and paleo…
Micro-abrasion of flint artifacts by mobile sediments
A functional approach to Paleolithic open-air habitation structures
Advances in hominin bioenergetics and paleoclimate reconstructions suggest that morphology was an insufficient buffer against the cool climate of Pleistocene Europe. To maintain homeostasis, hominins must have supplemented endothermy with various extrasomatic behavioral solutions. It is commonly suggested that one such solution was the use of simple windbreaks, though to date no studies have assessed the thermo-regulatory benefits, if any, they m…

China's energy inefficiency
This paper constructs a total-factor energy technical efficiency index using the data envelopment analysis (DEA) method following the total factor productivity framework. We then compare energy technical efficiency across 156 countries from 1980 to 2007. The results show that China's energy efficiency considerably trails other countries' although it has made significant gains within the last 28 years. Further analysis indicates that scale ineffic…

The Chronostratigraphy of the Aurignacian in the Northern Carpathian Basin Based on New Chronometric/Archeological Data from Seňa I (Eastern Slovakia)
The northern Carpathian Basin has important geological, paleoenvironmental, and archeological records that are key to our understanding of the first modern human occupation of Europe. However, the nature and timing of hominin settlements in the region during the Late Pleistocene remain poorly understood. New fieldwork at Seňa I, Slovakia, has identified the only known stratified open-air Aurignacian site in the region and assigned the assemblage …

Micro-abrasion of flint artifacts by mobile sediments
Fluvial Processes in the Pleistocene of Northern Europe
Ancient rivers have altered many Palaeolithic sites, obfuscating our ability to understand early human behavior. Building on previous models characterizing fluvial disturbance, the research presented in this volume focuses on identifying new ways ofunderstanding how lithic assemblages are affected by rivers through a series of experiments. It is argued that these effects are predictable, but dependent on aspects of river and artifact morphology. …
