Variation the in relationship between urban tree canopy and air temperature reduction under a range of daily weather conditions

Author(s): Locke DH; Baker M; Alonzo M; Yang Y; Ziter CD; Murphy-Dunning C; O' Neil-Dunne JPM;

Mitigating heat is a vital ecosystem service of trees, particularly with climate change. Land surface temperature measures captured at a single time of day (in the morning) dominate the urban heat island literature. Less is known about how local tree canopy and impervious surface regulate air temperature throughout the day, and/or across many days with va ...

Association of childhood externalizing, internalizing, comorbid problems with criminal convictions by early adulthood

Author(s): Melissa Commisso

Childhood externalizing problems have been linked with adult criminality. However, little is known about criminal outcomes among children with comorbid externalizing and internalizing problems. We examined the associations between profiles of behavioral problems during childhood (i.e., externalizing, internalizing, and comorbid) and criminality by early a ...

Prolonged drying impedes the detachment of microplastics in unsaturated substrate: Role of flow regimes

Author(s): Feng Q; Chen Z; Huang G; An C; Yang X; Wang Z;

The detachment of microplastics (MPs) from porous media under different moisture conditions and flow regimes has garnered limited attention within the research community. The present study investigates the detachment of MPs from porous media under wet and dry conditions combined with steady and transient flow. For both the wet and dry conditions, the incr ...

Dynamics of soil biota and nutrients at varied depths in a Tamarix ramosissima-dominated natural desert ecosystem: Implications for nutrient cycling and desertification management

Author(s): Islam W; Zeng F; Ahmed Dar A; Sohail Yousaf M;

The underground community of soil organisms, known as soil biota, plays a critical role in terrestrial ecosystems. Different ecosystems exhibit varied responses of soil organisms to soil physical and chemical properties (SPCPs). However, our understanding of how soil biota react to different soil depths in naturally established population of salinity tole ...

Effects of maternal mild hyperglycemia associated with snack intake on offspring metabolism and behavior across the lifespan

Author(s): Martins MG; Woodside B; Kiss ACI;

The increasing prevalence of diabetes is of particular concern in women of childbearing age because of the short and long-term consequences of maternal diabetes for the health of the offspring, such as a greater risk of developing metabolic impairments and cognitive deficits. In addition, maternal diet during pregnancy and lactation might contribute to pr ...

Polygenic risk and hostile environments: Links to stable and dynamic antisocial behaviors across adolescence

Author(s): E L Acland

Adverse environments are linked to elevated youth antisocial behavior. However, this relation is thought to depend, in part, on genetic susceptibility. The present study investigated whether polygenic risk for antisociality moderates relations between hostile environments and stable as well as dynamic antisocial behaviors across adolescence. We derived tw ...
