Wood, 1980 ambrosia beetles in Thailand are reviewed. Four species, ., ., , and are described. Four new combinations are given: (Schedl, 1942) , (Eggers, 1927) , (Schedl, 1969) , and (Browne, 1986) , , all from . Two new synonyms are proposed: (Schedl, 1975) (= Browne, 1986 ), (Eggers, 1927) (= Browne, 1983 ). Four species are reported from Thailand for the first time: (Eggers, 1930), , (Browne, 1949) and (Eggers, 1926). With the inclusion of the species described and recorded herein, the diversity of is increased to 35 species, of which 18 are recorded in Thailand. An updated key to the of the Indochinese Peninsula and China is provided. The taxonomy, diagnostic characters, and distribution of species are briefly discussed.

Climate warming can alleviate temperature and nutrient constraints on tree growth in boreal regions, potentially enhancing boreal productivity. However, in permafrost environments, warming also disrupts the physical foundation on which trees grow, leading to leaning trees or "drunken" forests. Tree leaning might reduce radial growth, undermining potential benefits of warming.

Contributions of ecological restoration policies to China's land carbon balance.

Sino-French Institute for Earth System Science, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, China.

Unleashing the land sector's potential for climate mitigation requires purpose-driven changes in land management. However, contributions of past management changes to the current global and regional carbon cycles remain unclear. Here, we use vegetation modelling to reveal how a portfolio of ecological restoration policies has impacted China's terrestrial carbon balance through developing counterfactual 'no-policy' scenarios.

Using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of collected by the CMS experiment at , the decay is observed for the first time, with a statistical significance exceeding 5 standard deviations. The relative branching fraction, with respect to the decay, is measured to be , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is related to the uncertainties in and .

Article Synopsis
  • Demand for computing power in major scientific experiments, like the CMS at CERN, is expected to significantly increase over the coming decades.
  • The implementation of coprocessors, particularly GPUs, in data processing workflows can enhance performance and efficiency, especially for machine learning tasks.
  • The Services for Optimized Network Inference on Coprocessors (SONIC) approach allows for improved use of coprocessors, demonstrating successful integration and acceleration of workflows across various environments without sacrificing throughput.

Background: Drought periods are major evolutionary triggers of wood anatomical adaptive variation in Lower Tropical Montane Cloud Forests tree species. We tested the influence of historical drought events on the effects of ecological stress memory on latewood width and xylem vessel traits in two relict hickory species (Carya palmeri and Carya myristiciformis) from central-eastern Mexico. We hypothesized that latewood width would decrease during historical drought years, establishing correlations between growth and water stress conditions, and that moisture deficit during past tree growth between successive drought events, would impact on wood anatomical features.
