Census 2022: Population of Serbia according to nationality by Raduški Nada

“…The different population dynamics of ethnic communities, i.e. the increase in the number and share of some, while at the same time the decrease in the number of others, determined the direction and intensity of changes and affected the national composition of the population, as well as the process of ethnic homogenization or dispersiveness of individual nationalities, which created and changed everything the ethnic image of Serbia.…”

On the Formation of Planets in the Milky Way’s Thick Disk by Tim Hallatt, Eve J. Lee

“…Disk temperatures exceed the sublimation temperatures of common volatile species for ≳Myr timescales, predicting more spatial homogeneity in gas chemical composition. Our calculations imply that the deficit in planet occurrence around thick-disk stars should be even more pronounced for giant planets, particularly those at wide orbital separations, predicting a higher rocky-to-giant planet ratio in the Galactic thick disk versus thin disk.…”

The role of mixing sequence in shaping the 3D-printability of geopolymers by Mona Sando, Dietmar Stephan

“…By pre-mixing sodium hydroxide with water, the local pH decreases, the geopolymerisation rate is slowed down and the printability is prolonged. A homogeneous distribution of all liquids additionally leads to an even distribution of dissolved silicon ions. …”

Node and Edge Joint Embedding for Heterogeneous Information Network by Lei Chen, Yuan Li, Hualiang Liu, Haomiao Guo

“…Then, to optimize performance, type-level joint learning is performed through the alternating training of node embedding on the original network and edge embedding on the line graph. Finally, a new homogeneous network is constructed from the original heterogeneous network, and the graph attention model is further used on the new network to perform element-level joint learning. …”

Earthquake Statistical Parameters Analysis and Regional Variations of March 02, 2017 Adıyaman-Samsat Earthquake (Ml = 5.7) by Using its Aftershocks by Nihan HOSKAN

“…In this study, using the aftershocks that occurred after the March 02, 2017 Adıyaman-Samsat Earthquake (Ml = 5.7) statistical analyzes of b-value and aftershock decay parameter p-value were performed. 1345 aftershocks compiled from the catalogs of the Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute (KOERI) and the Disaster & Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) were homogenized according to the local magnitude Ml. Afterwards, the completeness magnitude Mc=1.6 was obtained with the moving time window approach and using maximum likelihood method, b-value was calculated as 0.768±0.03 for the whole region. …”

Enchytraeids: Small but important ecosystem engineers by Cécile Serbource, Stéphane Sammartino, Sophie Cornu, Justine Papillon, Jérôme Adrien, Céline Pelosi

“…Our findings revealed that while enchytraeids had minimal impact on X-ray imaged porosity, they played a key role in reshaping the soil’s internal structure, increasing pore connectivity and homogenizing pore size distribution. This was evident through a reduction in the number of smaller pores and a shift toward larger pore sizes. …”

Polypore fungi as a flagship group to indicate changes in biodiversity – a test case from Estonia by Kadri Runnel, Otto Miettinen, Asko Lõhmus

“…Four broad ecological patterns are described: (1) polypore assemblage organization in natural forests follows major soil and tree-composition gradients; (2) landscape-scale polypore diversity homogenizes due to draining of peatland forests and reduction of nemoral broad-leaved trees (wooded meadows and parks buffer the latter); (3) species having parasitic or brown-rot life-strategies are more substrate-specific; and (4) assemblage differences among woody substrates reveal habitat management priorities. …”
