文摘The establishment of plantations has become a critical approach for reducing greenhouse gas emissions,particularly in fragile environments with carbon sequestration potential.In karst areas,plantations based on fastgrowing afforestation species made significant contributions to enhancing carbon sequestration.However,the impact of understory vegetation on carbon accumulation remains unclear.Especially,the carbon accumulation associated with litter produced during the replacement of understory species receives insufficient attention,which leads to the neglect of the carbon sequestration potential in plantations of karst areas.Leaf is a crucial organ that links the litter production.To explore how leaf traits adapt to competitive environments and drive litter carbon accumulation during understory species replacement,this study observed leaf traits and litter carbon content changes in three types of plantations in the Liujiang River Basin,a typical karst area.A total of 37 sampling plots were selected for field investigation over a twoyear period.Leaf traits,species diversity,vegetation coverage,and litter carbon characteristics in understory vegetation were measured.Variance analysis,allometric equations,and path analysis were used for data analysis.The results showed that most understory species adopted a biomass conservation strategy under high-coverage conditions(>44.27%)and expanded competitive leaf area under low-coverage conditions(<44.27%).However,Bidens pilosa and Miscanthus floridulus exhibited strong competitiveness during understory species replacement.They showed an expansion of competitive leaf area under high-coverage conditions.This competitive strategy reduced species diversity and community specific leaf area.But the rapid expansion of Bidens pilosa and Miscanthus floridulus increased understory vegetation coverage,and their increased specific leaf area facilitated leaf shedding,resulting in significant litter weight accumulation(P<0.05),thereby enhancing litter carbon content per unit area.These competitive strategies were key driving factors for the increase in litter carbon content per square meter,which reached a maximum of 49.6% higher than that in natural grasslands.And the maximum increase in litter carbon accumulation derived from understory vegetation reached 3.37 times from 2023 to 2024 in plantations.In the understory vegetation of plantations,the competitive strategies reflected by leaf adaptation of key competitive species are critical factors influencing litter carbon accumulation.Future research could deeply explore the carbon sequestration effects resulting from the dynamic changes in competition within the understory vegetation of plantations.

文摘With the rapid development of Internet technology,REST APIs(Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interfaces)have become the primary communication standard in modern microservice architectures,raising increasing concerns about their security.Existing fuzz testing methods include random or dictionary-based input generation,which often fail to ensure both syntactic and semantic correctness,and OpenAPIbased approaches,which offer better accuracy but typically lack detailed descriptions of endpoints,parameters,or data formats.To address these issues,this paper proposes the APIDocX fuzz testing framework.It introduces a crawler tailored for dynamic web pages that automatically simulates user interactions to trigger APIs,capturing and extracting parameter information from communication packets.A multi-endpoint parameter adaptation method based on improved Jaccard similarity is then used to generalize these parameters to other potential API endpoints,filling in gaps in OpenAPI specifications.Experimental results demonstrate that the extracted parameters can be generalized with 79.61%accuracy.Fuzz testing using the enriched OpenAPI documents leads to improvements in test coverage,the number of valid test cases generated,and fault detection capabilities.This approach offers an effective enhancement to automated REST API security testing.

文摘The brain's functions are governed by molecular metabolic networks.However,due to the sophisticated spatial organization and diverse activities of the brain,characterizing both the minute and large-scale metabolic activity across the entire brain and its numerous micro-regions remains incredibly challenging.Here,we offer a high-definition spatially resolved metabolomics technique to better understand the metabolic specialization and interconnection throughout the mouse brain using improved ambient mass spectrometry imaging.This method allows for the simultaneous mapping of thousands of metabolites at a 30 μm spatial resolution across the mouse brain,ranging from structural lipids to functional neurotransmitters.This approach effectively reveals the distribution patterns of delicate microregions and their distinctive metabolic characteristics.Using an integrated database,we annotated 259 metabolites,demonstrating that the metabolome and metabolic pathways are unique to each brain microregion.The distribution of metabolites,closely linked to functionally connected brain regions and their interactions,offers profound insights into the complexity of chemical processes and their roles in brain function.An initial dataset for future metabolomics research might be obtained from the high-definition mouse brain's spatial metabolome atlas.

文摘In wireless sensor networks,ensuring communication security via specific emitter identification(SEI)is crucial.However,existing SEI methods are limited to closed-set scenarios and lack the ability to detect unknown devices and perform classincremental training.This study proposes a class-incremental open-set SEI approach.The open-set SEI model calculates radiofrequency fingerprints(RFFs)prototypes for known signals and employs a self-attention mechanism to enhance their discriminability.Detection thresholds are set through Gaussian fitting for each class.For class-incremental learning,the algorithm freezes the parameters of the previously trained model to initialize the new model.It designs specific losses:the RFFs extraction distribution difference loss and the prototype transformation distribution difference loss,which force the new model to retain old knowledge while learning new knowledge.The training loss enables learning of new class RFFs.Experimental results demonstrate that the open-set SEI model achieves state-of-theart performance and strong noise robustness.Moreover,the class-incremental learning algorithm effectively enables the model to retain old device RFFs knowledge,acquire new device RFFs knowledge,and detect unknown devices simultaneously.

文摘A surface pyrolysis and gas-phase combustion of the Ammonium Perchlorate(AP)/Hydroxy Terminated Polybutadiene(HTPB)composite propellant reaction kinetic mechanism with five-step chemical reaction is adopted.The effects of helium injection on the burning rate and combustion of AP/HTPB propellant are analyzed in details,and the characteristics of motor performance are obtained.The numerical simulation results demonstrate that helium injection enhances the combustion chamber pressure,thereby increasing the burning rate of propellant.However,the primary combustion reaction of the AP/HTPB propellant takes place within a thin layer on the burning surface,so the low-temperature helium has minimal impact on the gasphase combustion.Ultimately,the helium not only elevates the nozzle exit velocity,resulting in specific impulse gain,but also reduces the exhaust plume temperature.With an increase of helium mass flow rate,the area of the velocity increase zone at the nozzle exit continuously decreases,but the average velocity in the motor exit continuously increases.Overall,when the helium flow rate is 2.5 kg/s,the specific impulse can reach 10.5%.Reducing the helium injection hole diameter enhances mixing of helium and combustion gas and expands the velocity increase zone,thereby maximizing the exit velocity gain in average velocity at the nozzle exit.When the injection hole diameter is reduced from 100 mm to 20 mm,the specific impulse gain increases from 3.1%to 10.6%.Furthermore,increasing helium injection temperature greatly boosts the velocity of the mixed gas with the same helium mass fraction ultimately improving specific impulse.

文摘Coconut(Cocos nucifera L.),a major oil and fruit crop of the Arecaceae family,is extensively cultivated across the Asia—Pacific region.Despite its agricultural importance,genome assembly in coconut remains challenging due to its large genome size and high proportion of repetitive sequences.Allele-specific expression(ASE)plays a key role in regulating plant development and evolution,yet research on ASE in coconut is limited(Shao et al.,2019;Li et al.,2021;Zhang et al.,2021;Hu et al.,2022).Among phenotypic traits,fruit color is especially important as an indicator of maturity,guiding harvest timing and post-harvest processes(Kapoor et al.,2022).While prior studies have explored various coconut traits such as salt tolerance,fiber content,and plant height(Wang et al.,2021;Yang et al.,2021),investigations into ASE and fruit color remain scarce.
文摘Prostate-specific membrane antigen(PSMA)is a surface membrane antigen that is highly overexpressed in prostate cancer,with heterogenous expression throughout the natural history of the disease.This has generated significant interest as a potential biomarker for use in early diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.We reviewed the literature surrounding PSMA and its current clinical applications in diagnosing and managing early prostate cancer that is confined to the prostate and local lymph nodes.A search on PubMed,Medline,and Web of Science was performed using the following keywords:“PSMA”,“Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen”,“Prostate cancer”,“Biomarker”,“Diagnosis”.We considered all available articles relevant to the topic of PSMA as a biomarker in early prostate cancer when developing this narrative review.Key articles assessing the biology of PSMA,as well as its use as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target in early prostate cancer,were assessed.The role of PSMA PET as a potential diagnostic and risk stratification tool was assessed.The current use of antibody-drug conjugates and radioligand therapy targeting PSMA was assessed,along with any current evidence to support their use in early prostate cancer.PSMA is heavily expressed throughout the early stages of prostate cancer,and this has significant therapeutic implications.There is a growing body of evidence that shows PSMA PET can play a role in the diagnosis,risk stratification,and prognostication of localised prostate cancer.PSMA-targeted therapies such as Lu-177 currently do not have any proven benefit in treating early prostate cancer;however,this remains an area of ongoing research.
文摘Alzheimer’s disease(AD)is the most common form of dementia.In addition to the lack of effective treatments,there are limitations in diagnostic capabilities.The complexity of AD itself,together with a variety of other diseases often observed in a patient’s history in addition to their AD diagnosis,make deciphering the molecular mechanisms that underlie AD,even more important.Large datasets of single-cell RNA sequencing,single-nucleus RNA-sequencing(snRNA-seq),and spatial transcriptomics(ST)have become essential in guiding and supporting new investigations into the cellular and regional susceptibility of AD.However,with unique technology,software,and larger databases emerging;a lack of integration of these data can contribute to ineffective use of valuable knowledge.Importantly,there was no specialized database that concentrates on ST in AD that offers comprehensive differential analyses under various conditions,such as sex-specific,region-specific,and comparisons between AD and control groups until the new Single-cell and Spatial RNA-seq databasE for Alzheimer’s Disease(ssREAD)database(Wang et al.,2024)was introduced to meet the scientific community’s growing demand for comprehensive,integrated,and accessible data analysis.

文摘Despite the superior advantages of specific emitter identification in extracting emitter features from in-phase and quadrature(I/Q)signals,challenges persist due to signal-type confusion and background noise interference.To address those limitations,this paper proposes a multi-channel contrast prediction coding and complex-valued residuals network(MCPC-MCVResNet)framework.This model employs contrast prediction techniques to directly extract discriminative features from electromagnetic signal sequences,effectively capturing both amplitude and phase information within I/Q data.A core innovation of this approach is the sphere space softmax(SS-softmax)loss,which optimizes intra-class clustering density of while establishing well-defined boundaries between distinct emitters.The SS-softmax mechanism significantly enhances the model's capacity to discern subtle variations among radiation emitters.Experimental results demonstrate superior identification accuracy,rapid convergence,and exceptional robustness in low signal-to-noise ratio environments.

文摘The microstructural evolution,phase stability,and mechanical properties of Al-Li-Mg-Ti-M(M=Zn,Zr,V)lightweight high-entropy alloys(LW-HEAs)were investigated.The LW-HEAs with three components,Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)-Ti_(40)Zn_(10)(#Zn),Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)Ti_(30)Zr_(20)(#Zr),and Al_(20)Li_(20)Mg_(10)Ti_(30)V_(20)(#V),were designed according to the thermo-dynamic design criteria of HEA,and prepared via a combination process of mechanical alloying and cold-press sintering.The effects of alloy composition and sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the LW-HEAs were studied.The results show that the as-milled Al-Li-Mg-Ti-M(M=Zn,Zr,V)LW-HEAs form a simple structure with HCP-type solid solution as the primary phase,a dual-HCP type solid solution phase,and a BCC phase,respectively.After cold-press sintering,the#Zn and#V alloys undergo obvious phase transformation;while the#Zr alloy with dual-HCP phases exhibits the best phase stability during heat treatment.The#V-750°C alloy demonstrates the maximum hardness and specific strength of HV 595.2 and 625 MPa∙cm3/g,respectively,under the combined effect of solid solution strengthening of BCC phase and precipitation strengthening ofβ-AlTi_(3).Moreover,the#Zr-650°C,#Zr-750°C,and#Zn-650°C alloys are expected to have excellent plasticity.

文摘The ACF adsorbent with high Cu loading was treated with dielectric barrier discharge plasma to mitigate the negative effects of high Cu loading and enhance PH_(3)and H_(2)S adsorption and oxidation.Bruno-Emmett-Taylor(BET)result showed that the specific surface area of the adsorbent after air plasma modification was almost three times that before modification.X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)findings revealed that the amino group was added to the adsorbent's surface,increasing lattice oxygen and chemisorbed oxygen.The adsorbent's large specific surface area,excellent surface active oxygen,and abundance of basic groups facilitate PH_(3)and H_(2)S adsorption and oxidation.The scanning electron microscopy showed that air plasma modification exposed more active components and uniformly dispersed them on the surface of adsorbent,thereby improving the adsorption performance.Activity evaluation results showed that the adsorbent has the best ability to capture PH_(3)and H_(2)S after being modified by air plasma at 4 kV voltage for 10 min.The adsorbent's breakthrough ability at high space velocity(WHSV:60,000 h^(−1))is 190 mg P/g and 146 mg S/g,respectively,which is 74%and 60%greater than that before modification.This is a great improvement over previous studies.In addition,the possible mechanism of adsorbent deactivation was proposed.

文摘Fully implanted brain-computer interfaces(BCIs)are preferred as they eliminate signal degradation caused by interference and absorption in external tissues,a common issue in non-fully implanted systems.To optimize the design of electroencephalography electrodes in fully implanted BCI systems,this study investigates the penetration and absorption characteristics of microwave signals in human brain tissue at different frequencies.Electromagnetic simulations are used to analyze the power density distribution and specific absorption rate(SAR)of signals at various frequen-cies.The results indicate that lower-frequency signals offer advantages in terms of power density and attenuation coeffi-cients.However,SAR-normalized analysis,which considers both power density and electromagnetic radiation hazards,shows that higher-frequency signals perform better at superficial to intermediate depths.Specifically,at a depth of 2 mm beneath the cortex,the power density of a 6.5 GHz signal is 247.83%higher than that of a 0.4 GHz signal.At a depth of 5 mm,the power density of a 3.5 GHz signal exceeds that of a 0.4 GHz signal by 224.16%.The findings suggest that 6.5 GHz is optimal for electrodes at a depth of 2 mm,3.5 GHz for 5 mm,2.45 GHz for depths of 15-20 mm,and 1.8 GHz for 25 mm.
