AbstractTransdisciplinary sustainability scientists are called to conduct research with community actors to understand and improve relations between people and nature. Yet, research hierarchies and power relations continue to favour western academic researchers who remain the gatekeepers of knowledge production and validation.To counter this imbalance, in 2018 we structured a multi‐day workshop to co‐design a set of principles to guide our own transdisciplinary, international and intercultural community of practice for biocultural diversity and sustainability. This community includes community collaborators, partner organizations, and early career and established researchers from Argentina, Bolivia, Canada, Germany, Mexico and South Africa. In 2021, we undertook online critical reflection workshops to share our research experiences and deepen our intercultural understanding of the application of the principles.Through these exercises, we adopted seven principles for working together that include: honour self‐determination and nationhood; commit to reciprocal relationships; co‐create the research agenda; approach research in a good way: embed relational accountability; generate meaningful benefits for communities; build in equity, diversity and inclusion; and emphasize critical reflection and shared learning. We explain these principles and briefly highlight their application to our research practices.By sharing these principles and associated practices, we seek to facilitate debate and spur transformations in how we conduct international and intercultural sustainability research. Our efforts also illustrate a strategy for on‐going knowledge co‐production as we cultivate safe and ethical spaces for learning together. Lessons learned may be particularly useful to those who engage in intercultural, collaborative research to advance sustainability transformations.Read the freePlain Language Summaryfor this article on the Journal blog.
Experimental characterization optimizing the alignment parameter for GNP epoxy base nanocomposite via a weak DC magnetic field
Authors: Tiwari Anupam , Panda S. K. , Shaw S. K. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractGraphene has been hailed by scientists as the “wonder material” of the 21st century. Despite the impressive mechanical and electrical qualities of graphene in its unprocessed state, graphene‐based epoxy nanocomposites can only be used as a structural material on a small scale. The random dispersion and orientation of graphene in epoxy cause the failure. Magnetite Fe3O4 nanoparticles are synthesized and solvo‐thermally attached to the graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) surfaces in order to utilize our recently model's suggested optimized alignment parameters. Solution with properly dispersed nanoparticles, that is, Fe3O4‐GNP within epoxy, is exposed to the magnetic field (0.05 T). Morphology, microstructure, and magnetic properties of GNP, Fe3O4, and Fe3O4‐GNP nanoparticles have been characterized by X‐ray diffraction, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, atomic force microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray microanalysis, and vibrating sample magnetometry. The aforementioned characterization method, optical microscopy, and studying the fracture surface morphology confirmed the alignment. The fabricated aligned Fe3O4‐GNP nanocomposite is best used as a functional material.

Published: June 2023

AbstractIntroductionHumanity is facing two great challenges: producing enough food for a growing population and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. In this study, we investigated the choice of specific wheat varieties to improve carbon storage in soil while producing enough grain to assure food security. We hypothesize that ancient wheat varieties could store more carbon than modern ones, due to a likely bigger and deeper root system or to more recalcitrant root organic matter.Materials and MethodsWe conducted a field experiment with four modern and four ancient wheat varieties, on four different sites with contrasted soil properties. Root morphology was assessed by image analysis and potential CO2 emissions by incubation for 60 days. Since in situ carbon storage differences between ancient and modern varieties were expected to be weak and not cumulated due to rotation, we estimated expected CO2 emissions from root biomass and potential CO2 emissions. The grain yield was also measured.ResultsThe breeding type (ancient vs. modern varieties) affected root length in two of our four sites, with longer roots for ancient varieties, but it did not affect other root traits such as biomass. The breeding type also affected CO2 emissions, with higher measured CO2 emissions for modern than ancient varieties in Arenic Cambisol conditions (Morvan), and higher estimated (considering root biomass variations) CO2 emissions for modern varieties in Rendzic Leptosol conditions (Saint Romain). Root traits and estimated CO2 emissions were also dependent on the soil properties of the different sites. We did not find any significant differences in grain yield between ancient and modern varieties.ConclusionA possible trade‐off between carbon storage and grain production was expected, but our results suggest that some types of soil can support both high grain yield and C storage, especially those with an important depth, a neutral pH and a fine texture.
Electrochemical Etching Switches Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Pathway of IrOx/Y2O3 from Adsorbate Evolution Mechanism to Lattice‐Oxygen‐Mediated Mechanism

Published: June 2023

AbstractOxygen evolution reaction (OER) plays key roles in electrochemical energy conversion devices. Recent advances have demonstrated that OER catalysts through lattice oxygen‐mediated mechanism (LOM) can bypass the scaling relation‐induced limitations on those catalysts through adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM). Among various catalysts, IrOx, the most promising OER catalyst, suffers from low activities for its AEM pathway. Here, it is demonstrated that a pre‐electrochemical acidic etching treatments on the hybrids of IrOx and Y2O3 (IrOx/Y2O3) switch the AEM‐dominated OER pathway to LOM‐dominated one in alkali electrolyte, delivering a high performance with a low overpotential of 223 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and a long‐term stability. Mechanism investigations suggest that the pre‐electrochemical etching treatments create more oxygen vacancies in catalysts due to the dissolution of yttrium and then provide highly active surface lattice oxygen for participating OER, thereby enabling the LOM‐dominated pathway and resulting in a significantly increased OER activity in basic electrolyte.
Amide‐Based Ionic Liquid Electrolytes for Alkali‐Metal‐Ion Rechargeable Batteries
Authors: Yamamoto Takayuki , Nohira Toshiyuki 
Published: June 2023

AbstractIonic liquids (ILs) have a wide variety of applications in energy storage and material production. ILs are composed of only cations and anions, without any molecular solvents, and are generally known as “designer liquids (solvents)” because their physicochemical properties can be tuned by the combination of ionic species. In recent several decades, research and development activities of rechargeable batteries have garnered considerable attention because certain groups of ILs exhibit high electrochemical stability and moderate ionic conductivity, rendering them suitable for application in high‐voltage batteries. ILs with amide anions are representative electrolytes and are extensively researched by many research groups, including our group. This paper focuses on amide‐based ILs as electrolytes for alkali‐metal‐ion rechargeable batteries, introducing their history, characteristics, and existing challenges to be addressed.
A multimedia learning theory‐informed perspective on self‐regulated learning
Authors: Kuhlmann Shelbi L. , Bernacki Matthew L. , Greene Jeffrey A. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe affordances of computer‐based learning environments make them powerful tools for conveying information in higher education. However, to most effectively use these environments, students must be adept at self‐regulating their learning. This self‐regulation is effortful, including a myriad of processes, including defining tasks, making plans, using and monitoring the efficacy of high‐quality learning strategies, and reflecting on the learning process and outcomes. Therefore, higher education instructors and course designers should design computer‐based learning environments to ease learning and free up mental resources for self‐regulation. This chapter describes how design principles from the cognitive theory of multimedia learning can facilitate learning in computer‐based learning environments and promote self‐regulated learning. Examples of the multimedia, personalization, and generative activity principles are presented to show how the cognitive theory of multimedia learning can guide design and promote students’ selection, organization, and integration of content, resulting in better understanding and more mental resources available for self‐regulated learning and the deeper learning it can afford.
More than just fun and games: The role of games in postsecondary education to support self‐regulated learning
Authors: Nietfeld John L. , Sperling Rayne A. , Young Taylor M. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractIn this chapter, we explore how faculty employ the use of gamification and game‐based learning environments (GBLE) in postsecondary education. Gamification refers to the use of game‐design elements while game‐based learning refers to the use of digital education games. Both are increasingly popular instructional practices and, in this chapter, we specifically examine their potential for supporting students’ self‐regulated learning (SRL). Important for academic success, SRL refers to the active, cyclical process of intentionally directing one's metacognition, motivation, and behavior to achieve a learning goal. Findings from the extant research on gamification and GBLEs conducted in postsecondary settings are reported with connections to SRL processes throughout. Furthermore, we review the effects of games on varied learning, motivation, and SRL outcomes. Finally, we conclude with recommendations for future research and practice, with a primary suggestion of more explicitly addressing SRL in research related to gamification and game‐based learning.

AbstractProstate biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing prostate cancer (PCa). Prostate targeted biopsy (TB) having a higher rate of detecting clinically significant PCa (csPCa) than traditional systematic biopsy (SB) is supported by high‐quality evidence. However, the TB indications and strategies are controversial. The National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, invited a panel of recognized urology experts in PCa to address these topics at the Panjiayuan Consensus Conference 2022. The conference results on prostate TB are presented herein. The National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences identified 10 key areas of prostate biopsy: (1) selection of imaging examination; (2) indications of TB; (3) transperineal and transrectal prostate biopsy; (4) TB pathways; (5) TB and SB; (6) three techniques of TB; (7) the number of TB cores needed for one lesion; (8) core number for SB; (9) free‐hand TB; (10) future development of TB/prostate diagnosis. Thus, a panel of 25 recognized urologists and 2 radiologists from China were invited to attend this conference. The panel voted anonymously on 14 predetermined questions. Voting was based on the panelists' clinical practice and opinion, rather than high‐level evidence. The voting outcomes were supported by the panel unequally, and details of the voting results were reported. The voting results can help clinicians to decide on biopsy timing and proper strategies, for which guidelines are sparse. We also focused on the future development of TB and SB, such as the combined pathway of TB and SB, techniques of TB, biopsy cores, free‐hand TB, and prostate‐specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography.

Published: June 2023

AbstractA 6‐year‐old, male neutered, domestic shorthair cat was presented for further investigation of a right‐sided kidney mass. A contrast‐enhanced computed tomography scan of head, thorax and abdomen showed a right‐sided renal mass, with infiltration of the surrounding tissue, but no evidence of distant metastasis. Cytology was consistent with a poorly differentiated neoplasia, and nephrectomy was performed. Following surgery, the cat underwent multiple blood transfusions due to severe anaemia and developed tricavitary effusion compatible with a protein‐rich transudate. The tumour was confirmed to be a histiocytic sarcoma on histopathology and immunohistochemistry, and the patient received adjuvant chemotherapy with lomustine. Restaging procedures were performed 121 days following surgery and documented recurrence at the previous surgical site together with cutaneous metastasis, therefore a rescue protocol with single agent doxorubicin was started. The patient was euthanased after worsening of its clinical conditions, 152 days since nephrectomy was performed.
Ambrosia Beetles
Authors: Hulcr Jiri , Skelton James 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe term “ambrosia beetles” refers to an ecological strategy shared by thousands of species of wood-boring weevils from multiple lineages, rather than a single taxonomic group. Most ambrosia beetle groups evolved from within the bark battles (Curculionidae; Scolytinae), which are a diverse group of weevils which bore into trees and whose progeny develop by feeding on the host tree tissue.
Sap-Sucking Forest Pests

Published: June 2023

AbstractSap-sucker insects are distinguished by their specialized mouthparts, adapted to penetrate and suck fluids from plant tissues. Many sap-sucking insect species are of major economic importance for forests, forest nurseries, and urban trees, causing plant stress, distortion, shoot stunting, and gall formation, or transmitting plant pathogens. In this chapter, we give an overview of the diversity and biology of sap-sucker insects of forest trees, with an emphasis on the two major groups, aphids, and scale insects. We further present their ecology highlighting their biotic interactions with other organisms. Finally, we discuss sap-sucking forest pests and their management.
Spatial Dynamics of Forest Insects

Published: June 2023

AbstractThe study of the spatial dynamics of forest insects has a long history, and many forest insect species have served as model systems for studying conceptual processes of population biology and ecology. Because forest insect population data were often collected from georeferenced locations, even prior to the development of geodatabases and spatial statistical software, they provide an important historical resource for understanding insect population dynamics and changes in those dynamics through time. Advances in spatial statistics have furthermore enabled forest entomologists to consider forest insect dynamics over multiple spatial and temporal scales, and vast spatial and temporal extents. In this chapter, we first introduce the importance of scaling in studies of spatial dynamics, and review spatial pattern formation in forest insect populations. We conclude the chapter by addressing metapopulation dynamics, and the concept of spatial synchrony in outbreaking forest insects.

AbstractCable cars represent an integral element of urban transport systems designed to connect underserved communities in Latin America. However, evaluations of the liveability impacts of cable cars are scarce. The TransMiCable cable car in Colombia connects the peripheral neighbourhoods of Ciudad Bolívar with the integrated public transport system of Bogotá. This study assessed the effect of TransMiCable on domains of liveability, including transport, public open space, social cohesion, local democracy, and security. Urban Transformations and Health: The Case of TransMiCable in Bogotá was a natural experiment involving participatory mixed methods. Household surveys, the Our Voice citizen science research method, and the Ripple Effects Mapping technique were applied to capture baseline measurements before TransMiCable’s inauguration and follow-up measurements afterwards in both intervention and control areas. Following a simultaneous bidirectional approach, quantitative and qualitative data were collected and analysed separately, then merged for interpretation. The mixed methods approach revealed concordance and complementarity among the multiple effects of the TransMiCable intervention across domains of liveability. These impacts included shorter travel times, increased satisfaction with public transport, increased access to parks, perceived reduction in the neighbourhood’s social stigma, increased pride in community, and decreased perceived insecurity. The participatory process facilitated dialogue between community leaders and public sector decision-makers on the ways transportation interventions can improve liveability. This multisectoral engagement enabled a broad understanding of the ongoing transformation of the Ciudad Bolívar area after the implementation of TransMiCable, providing lessons for effectively engaging with local stakeholders to support the sustainability of urban transformations.
Einleitung
Authors: Krohn Markus 
Published: June 2023

ZusammenfassungObwohl es im deutschen Gesundheitssystem bei stationär erbrachten Leistungen aufgrund der Entgeltfixierung durch Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs) und Zusatzentgelte seit Jahren zu einem erhöhten Kostendruck kommt, sind exakte, interventionsbezogene Modelle zur Kostenermittlungen im Krankenhaus nur rudimentär ausgeprägt. Dem Leistungserbringer ist folglich oftmals unbekannt, welche Ressourcen in welchem Umfang für die Leistungserstellung tatsächlich eingesetzt werden und ob eine einzelne Intervention kostendeckend erbracht wird. Diese tiefgreifende Fokussierung auf eine einzelne Intervention gewinnt besonders vor dem Hintergrund einer sich verändernden Patientenstruktur an Bedeutung.

ZusammenfassungIm dritten Kapitel wurden die Entwicklungen der Verfahrenszahlen an der UMG sowie in Deutschland vorgestellt und diskutiert. Das darauffolgende Kapitel zeigte die Kosten der einzelnen Verfahren an der UMG für das Prognosejahr 2019 auf und diskutierte diese. Innerhalb der Diskussionskapitel der jeweiligen Hauptkapitel wurden Fragen aufgezeigt, für dessen Beantwortung neben den Prognosedaten 2019 der UMG auch die Daten der drei Vergleichsszenarien aus Abschnitt 3.5 herangezogen werden sollen. Hierbei geht es vorrangig darum, inwieweit die vormals aufgezeigten Ergebnisse als „stabil“ angesehen werden und ob die Ergebnisse somit auf die weiteren Szenarien übertragen werden können. Weiterhin erfolgt neben der reinen Kostenbetrachtung auch der Vergleich bzw. die Diskussion der Ergebnisse vor dem Hintergrund der Ausgestaltungen im Finanzierungssystem. Hierbei wird unter anderem Bezug auf die Ausgestaltung der OPS-Kodierung bzw. auf die Definition der Zusatzentgelte genommen.
Prospects for a Sustainable Housing Transition

Published: June 2023

AbstractIn this final chapter, we revisit the core ideas woven throughout the book. We summarize the current situation and how the current provision of housing will not meet our environmental or societal needs moving forward. Despite the mounting evidence of the benefits of sustainable housing, we still face key challenges that need to be urgently addressed to ensure we can facilitate a sustainable housing transition that includes everyone. We discuss the prospects for change and explore where that change needs to occur. We finish the chapter with some concluding reflections.
Algebra of operators in an AdS-Rindler wedge

Published: June 2023

Abstract
We discuss the algebra of operators in AdS-Rindler wedge, particularly in AdS5/CFT4. We explicitly construct the algebra at N = ∞ limit and discuss its Type III1 nature. We will consider 1/N corrections to the theory and using a novel way of renormalizing the area of Ryu-Takayanagi surface, describe how several divergences can be renormalized and the algebra becomes Type II∞. This will make it possible to associate a density matrix to any state in the Hilbert space and thus a von Neumann entropy.
