Socio-ecological dynamics of Andean treelines in the 21st century by Gwendolyn Peyre, Enrique Zuñiga, Andrea Cornejo Paredes, Aremi Paja Medina, Jose Alfredo Sulla Torres, Manuel Zúñiga Carnero, Karina Rosas Paredes

“…This mini-review sheds light on the current state of Andean treelines today and suggests future pathways with anticipated opportunities for conservation and sustainable restoration. For instance, we stress the need for future research in species and community modelling to predict composition and distribution changes in forest and non-forest vegetation under global change scenarios.…”

Resilience as Accusation: A Critical Examination of Individual Resilience Training for Burnout Mitigation by Jacqueline Christianson, Bonnie Sommers-Olson, Jessica Leiberg, Dana Kaminstein

“…Through the lens of General Systems Theory, we describe resilience training as a method of individualizing a systemic problem by problematizing a response to chronic stress exposure. Resilience training may furthermore serve as a mechanism which allows subversion of institutional responsibility for nurses’ well-being in the workplace. …”

Achieving excellent mechanical properties in CoNiCrMo multi-principal element alloys: A comprehensive approach integrating mean square atomic displacement and machine learning meth... by Yang Long, Wei Fang, Haoyang Yu, Tiexu Peng, Cong Li, Weiguang Liu, Chang Liu, Qinghe Jia, Yushui Chen, Jia Li, Fuxing Yin

“…The results indicate electronegativity difference is the descriptor of the highest importance in the lattice distortion prediction of the ML model. Meanwhile, the MSAD value is basically the same as the electronegativity difference value with compositional variation, which provides an important reference for alloy design. …”

Development of a wear coefficient equation for the A A7075-B4C composite – steel interface by Venkatrami Reddy Veduru, Ranjith R, Kanulla Karthik, P Sasirekha

“…The presence of reinforcement hinders dislocation movement led to an augmentation in the composites’ hardness, while an elevation in temperature resulted in a decline in hardness due to the reduction of Pierls stresses. Owing to the formation of a Mechanical Mixed Layer (MML), the wear rate decreases with addition of volume fraction of B _4 C particles until 7.5%, beyond this MML break down and wear rate transit from mild to severe due to the direct metal contact. …”
