Rewards are rewarding owing to their hedonic or metabolic value. Individual differences in sensitivity to rewards are predictive of mental health problems but may reflect variation in metabolic types. We have assessed the association of two distinguishable aspects of reward sensitivity, openness to rewards (the striving towards multiple rewards) and insatiability by reward (the strong pursuit and fixation to a particular reward), with measures of metabolism and activity in a longitudinal study of representative birth cohort samples.

Accurate estimates of forest dynamics and above-ground forest biomass for the topographically challenging Himalaya are crucial for understanding carbon storage potential, assessing ecosystem services, and guiding conservation efforts in response to climate change. This dataset provides a manually delineated multi-temporal forest inventory and a comprehensive record of above-ground biomass (AGB) across the Kashmir Himalaya, generated from field observations, advanced remote sensing and machine learning. Data were collected and generated through remote sensing techniques and extensive in-situ measurements of 6220 trees (n=275 plots), including tree diameter at breast height, species composition, and tree density to map forest area and model AGB across varied terrain.

The expansion of irrigated agriculture in semi-arid regions exacerbates the degradation of wetland ecosystems. Precision water recharge can facilitate near-natural restoration of degraded wetlands by alleviating the conflict between wetlands and agricultural water use. However, although the ecological significance of precision water recharge as a nature-based solution for restoring wetland vegetation has been widely acknowledged, the mechanisms driving its role in spikelet development and seed growth in Carex schmidtii Meinsh.

Quantum dot (QD) light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) are promising candidates for next-generation displays because of their high efficiency, brightness, broad color gamut, and solution-processability. Large-scale solution-processing of electroluminescent QLEDs poses significant challenges, particularly concerning the precise control of the active layer's thickness and uniformity. These obstacles directly impact charge transport, leading to current leakage and reduced overall efficiency.
