Modelling relative richness of flooding-response groups to predict hydrology-driven change in wetland plant communities by David C. Deane, Michelle T. Casanova, Jason Nicol, Justin D. Brookes

“…Wetlands are sensitive to drying climates but projecting future impacts is challenging. Grouping plant species by flooding tolerance simplifies hydrological response modelling, with changes in group representation along the hydrological gradient defining both distinct vegetation zones and transition thresholds between them. …”

tDCS cranial nerve Co-stimulation: Unveiling brainstem pathways involved in trigeminal nerve direct current stimulation in rats by Alireza Majdi, Liyi Chen, Lars E. Larsen, Robrecht Raedt, Myles Mc Laughlin

“…However, recent evidence suggests that some tDCS effects may be mediated through co-stimulation of peripheral or cranial nerves, particularly the trigeminal nerve (TN). The TN projects to key brainstem nuclei that regulate neurotransmitter release throughout the central nervous system, but the specific pathways involved are not yet well understood. …”

How can urban expansion and ecological preservation be balanced? A simulation of the spatial dynamics of production-living-ecological spaces in the Huaihe River Eco-Economic Belt by Tonghui Yu, Shanshan Jia, Yu Zhang, Xufeng Cui

“…The findings reveal: (1) a distinct geographical differentiation of the PLES within the Huaihe River Eco-Economic Belt, with production and living spaces dispersed across urban areas and ecological space predominantly situated in the central and western regions; (2) an expansion of living space while production and ecological spaces are contracting, indicating significant urbanization, with the transition of living space primarily occurring through the conversion of agricultural land; (3) a relatively stable structural composition of the PLES projected by 2030, with production space still prevailing. …”
