Article Synopsis
  • Plant communities consist of species with varying functional traits and evolutionary backgrounds, leading to the expectation that functional diversity increases with phylogenetic diversity.* -
  • Contrary to this expectation, a study of over 1.7 million vegetation plots showed that functional and phylogenetic diversity are weakly and negatively correlated, suggesting they operate independently.* -
  • Phylogenetic diversity is more pronounced in forests and reflects recent climate, while functional diversity is influenced by both past and recent climate, highlighting the need to assess both types of diversity for ecosystem studies and conservation strategies.*

The structure and magnetic properties of epitaxial Heusler alloy films (CoFeGe) deposited on MgO (100) substrates were investigated. Films of 60 nm thickness were prepared by magnetron co-sputtering at different substrate temperatures (T), and those deposited at room temperature were later annealed at various temperatures (T). X-ray diffraction confirmed (001) [110] CoFeGe || (001) [100] MgO epitaxial growth.

Objective: Aim: To investigate the impact of kettlebell strength training on the health and physical readiness of female cadets during martial law training.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The research involved 60 female cadets, 30 each in the experimental (EG) and the control (CG) groups. The EG cadets were engaged in kettlebell exercises during the hours of their sporting and mass participation activities, while the CG cadets were engaged according to the traditional methodology.

The magnetization value and electric resistivity of the single-crystalline sample of NiFeCoGa shape memory alloy were measured. The elastic modulus was determined by the Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). The characteristic temperatures of martensitic transformation (MT) of the alloy were estimated from the temperature dependences of magnetization, electric resistivity and elastic modulus.

Terrestrial ecosystems affect climate by reflecting solar irradiation, evaporative cooling, and carbon sequestration. Yet very little is known about how plant traits affect climate regulation processes (CRPs) in different habitat types. Here, we used linear and random forest models to relate the community-weighted mean and variance values of 19 plant traits (summarized into eight trait axes) to the climate-adjusted proportion of reflected solar irradiation, evapotranspiration, and net primary productivity across 36,630 grid cells at the European extent, classified into 10 types of forest, shrubland, and grassland habitats.
