Machine learning in transport modeling has become a trend in science and industry. In this paper, we observe its main directions and focus on a dataset of seasonal road creation. Seasonality as a parameter in transport modeling has a significant impact on transport scenarios but is underestimated worldwide and in Russia, despite modern data challenges. ...

Unlike most other brachiopods, craniiforms lack a prominent pedicle, cement to a hard substrate by their ventral valve, and thereby can be easily distinguished in paleontological materials. In this study, we describe a new genus and species from the Porkuni Regional Stage of Northeastern Estonia (Baltica), corresponding to the lower part of the Hirnantian Stage ...

Although Brachiopoda represent a relatively small phylum, they exhibit significant morphological diversity. One of the central issues in understanding the evolution of the ancestral brachiopod body plan pertains to the homologies among body compartments across the different brachiopod subphyla: Craniiformea, Linguliformea, and Rhynchonelliformea. In this context, the pedicle stands out as one of the most ...

As a frequent extreme event under global climate change, drought significantly threatens the net primary productivity (NPP) of terrestrial ecosystems. Although numerous studies have reported drought-induced declines in NPP, the hydroclimatic mechanisms behind remain insufficiently understood. The strong interdependence among temperature, precipitation, and water availability has made it challenging to quantify their independent effects on ...

Vegetation restoration represents a highly effective strategy for offsetting carbon emissions, mitigating climate change, and enhancing the quality of the eco-environment. Despite the ecological benefits, the large-scale ‘Grain-for-Green’ program in China has caused unintended hydrological consequences, threatening the sustainability of regional water resources in this arid and semi-arid region. Therefore, it is crucial to understand ...

Phengite is one of the important hydrous phyllosilicate minerals capable of transporting water and potassium in subducting slabs down to the Earth’s upper mantle. Being able to incorporate significant amounts of ammonium in its structure, phengite is also a major contributor to the nitrogen cycle in subduction zones. Employing classical molecular dynamic simulations with the ...
