Article reports on a previously unidentified mechanism by which the growth-promoting rhizobacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (GB03) transcriptionally activates genes responsible for sulfur assimilation, increasing sulfur uptake and accumulation in Arabidopsis.

Article studying high light absorption in two devices: a stack of Au-pattern/insulator/Au-film and a stack of Au-pattern/weakly-absorbing-material/Au-film where the Au-pattern was structured in graded photonic super-crystal. Multiple-band absorption, including one near 1500 nm, in a stack of Au-pattern/spacer/Au-film was observed.

Video recording of Part Two of the Unlikely Allies in the Academy Series, hosted by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion for continued dialogue based upon the book "Unlikely Allies in the Academy: Women of Color and White Women in Conversation." Featuring Dr. Frances Kendall, this presentation paints a picture of white privilege by detailing what it is, who it involves, what it looks like, and other important aspects.

Video compilation of footage from news segments, interviews, and other sources with narration about the establishment of DART in 1983 and the creation of an online archive to document its history.

Authors of the article proposed and tested a conceptual model delineating the relationships between COVID-19 stress, commitment to the environment, and intentions for sustainable apparel consumption in terms of intentions for purchasing sustainable apparel and divesting apparel. The authors recommend the sustainable apparel brands and marketers promote how sustainable apparel consumption can protect the environment to make the environment and human beings less susceptible to the future outbreaks of pandemics.

This study demonstrates the vulnerability of species to extreme hydrological events, an increasing threat due to climate change.

This article looks at hindered amine light stabilizers (HALSs) and nano ZnO were used to stabilize polypropylene (PP) film-based formulations that were exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light for different lengths of time, simulating the harsh outdoor weather of Dallas, Texas, USA. UV doses applied in our laboratory are 121 times larger than the UV dose provided by the sunlight in Texas. 15 different compositions were studied. The combination of HALSs and nano-ZnO stabilizers makes the PP films harder—which is important for some PP applications, such as toy manufacturing.

The article describes cosmic expansion as correlated with the standpoints of local observers’ co-moving horizons. In keeping with relational quantum mechanics, which claims that quantum systems are only meaningful in the context of measurements, the authors suggest that information gets ergodically “diluted” in our isotropic and homogeneous expanding Universe, so that an observer detects just a limited amount of the total cosmic bits.

This article examines the relationships between spatial patterns of long-term ozone exposure and respiratory illness within Dallas-Fort Worth to better understand impacts on health outcomes.

Article describes the results of friction stir welding of aluminum and steel, in which heat input and high strain rate deformation during resulted in the diffusion-based formation of a FexAly intermetallic compound (IMC) layer.

Paper describes study explores how millennials' global citizenship attitudes affect their likelihood of participating in volunteer environmental projects, and in turn how prior involvement in these projects affects their global citizenship attitudes.

Paper presents a streamlined, reproducible synthetic method for the production of size-tunable poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles (PMMANPs) and amine-functionalized block-copolymer PMMANPs (H2N-PMMANPs) by varying subcritical concentrations of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS).

Discusses a project in which researchers were able to generate over 1000 diffraction spots from a graded photonic super-crystal with a unit super-cell size of 12a × 12a where a is the lattice constant and hole radii are gradually changed in dual directions.

This review looks at the religious communities influence health-related behaviors of adherents in important ways for public health promotion. Questions remain about the processes involved and resultant health promotion actions of the religious adherents.

This article presents a study using grey relation analysis (GRA) and support vector regression (SVR) algorithm to develop a prediction model to accurately predict internal bond strength (IB) of particleboard production (PB) through particle gluing processing parameters in a PB production line.

Interview with Bette Graham, inventor of Liquid Paper and founder of the Liquid Paper Corporation, which has since been sold to the Gillette Company. The interview includes a speech given by Bette Graham before the New Enterprise Club on March 9th, 1977 as well as a previous Oral History interview conducted on May 10th, 1969 and an Oral History interview on August 3, 1977. Additionally, there is a speech that was given to the Rotary Club at the Baker Hotel. Finally, there is a clip from the Dallas Morning News from May 14th, 1980 regarding the death of Bette Graham.

Interview with James C. Venable regarding his experiences in the military and as a prisoner of war of the Japanese during World War II. Mr. Venable was captured while serving in the Marine Corps on Wake Island.

Research study explores how oxidation products of organic components (lipids, proteins, amino acids, etc.) can serve as the molecular source of red and near-infrared excited autofluorescence for biomedical diagnostics.

Paper reports findings on the contribution of phenolic antioxidants (17β-estradiol, p-octyl-phenol and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) to counterbalance sudden ethanol withdrawal-initiated oxidative events in hippocampus-derived cultured HT-22 cells.

Article is a study with the main objective of mitigation of thermal degradation of skutterudite-based thermoelectric materials—so as to extend the service life of those materials and make them more attractive for industry from the economical perspective. Significant mitigation of oxidation and sublimation of thermoelectric (TE) materials was achieved.

Paper examines the impacts of variations in the mean annual lake bottom temperature (MALBT) on talik development and permafrost degradation beneath expanding thermokarst lakes in the Beiluhe Basin on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau.

Article studying twistoptics for manipulating optical properties in twisted moiré photonic patterns without physical rotations. The presented approach can lead toward the study of twistoptics for the manipulating of optical properties in moiré patterns with different twist angles.

Study demonstrates that antibodies of the secretory IgA (SIgA) class co-localizes with gut bacteria in the outer mucus layer; paper discusses the properties of SIgA.

Article explores consumer socialization of sustainable networks based on the theory of consumer socialization, using eBay Green's Facebook presence as a case study.
