Biochar Amendment on a Coastal Ecosystem: Effectiveness of Biochar on Stormwater Infiltration in Upland and Nutrient Removal in Living Shoreline
Delaware's Inland Bays face challenges due to excess of nutrients and considerable shoreline erosion. Additionally, stormwater runoff has emerged as a significant contributor to pollution to the bays, leading to compromised water quality for both aquatic ecosystems and recreational purposes. To challenge these issues, constructed living shorelines offers a natural approach to stabilize the shorelines, reduce erosion, and improve water quality. In our study, we applied biochar, a substance resembling charcoal produced from pyrolysis of wood waste, at two locations: an Upland area and a recently constructed Living Shoreline. We designated these locations as S1 and S2, respectively. Both S1 and S2 were divided into alternating treatment sections of 4% (w/w) biochar, and 0% (w/w) biochar (control). For S1, characterized by a 12-hour tidal cycle, the focus was on examining the impact of the biochar amendment on plant growth, nitrogen removal, and erosion reduction. The S2 site represents a meadow ecosystem where we planted a combination of native wildflowers and warm-season grasses. Unlike S1, S2 is unaffected by tidal cycles and the study aims to discern variations in infiltration rates with and without biochar. To our knowledge this is the first field application of biochar to a meadow ecosystem for studying the enhanced capture of overland flow
Replication Data for: Developmental Effects in the 'Vocale Rapide dans le Bruit' Speech-in-Noise Identification Test: Reference Performances of Normal-Hearing Children and Adolescents (10.1044/2024_JSLHR-23-00467)
This is the dataset generated for the study reported in the article "Developmental Effects in the VRB Speech-in-Noise Identification Test: Reference Performances of Normal-Hearing Children and Adolescents", published in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research (doi: 10.1044/2024_JSLHR-23-00467).
It contains demographic information about the 72 participants to the study (sex, age in years, age in months, years of education since first grade), as well as their average air-conduction pure-tone audiometric thresholds (PTAs; for the right ear, left ear, and across ears). The age-group (i.e., 10-11 years, 12-13 years, 14-15 years, 16-18 years, or 18-20 years) to which each participant was associated for between-group analyses is also reported. Each participant's speech-identification performances to the VRB speech-in-noise test (as measured by the signal-to-noise ratio required to achieve 50% correct keywords, SNR50) are reported for the training list and the four test lists. Average SNR50s across the four test lists (the dependent variable used for analyzing age effects) is also provided

Material Science and Artificial Intelligence: Insights from Professor Demircan Canadinc
In this interview, Professor Demircan Canadinc of Koç University explains his work at the intersection of material science and artificial intelligence (AI). Professor Canadinc has concentrated on the deformation of metallic substances as his area of expertise in the area of mechanics of materials. His current research, in collaboration with important institutions like Los Alamos National Laboratory, transforms the design of high-strength, smart shape memory alloys, and biomedically compatible metallic materials. His work addresses the challenges of creating alloys with a Young’s modulus akin to human bone for orthopedic implants. Professor Canadinc uses AI to optimize the alloy composition with exceptional speed and efficiency which is a breakthrough that significantly improves upon the traditional, decades-long trial-and-error cycle in material design. This interview with Professor Canadinc explores the utilization of state-of-the-art techniques such as SEM and XPES housed in KUTTAM (Koç University Research Center for Translational Medicine) laboratory for the characterization of newly minted alloys. Professor Canadinc also sheds light on the broader usage of AI in materials science and his anticipation for the future applications of AI in the field
Replication Data for "Allocation of Public Health Services Across Urban and Rural Regions, Rural Poverty, and Armed Conflicts in Sub-Saharan Africa," Demet Yalcin Mousseau and Michael Mousseau,Journal of Public Health Policy, 2024
Armed conflicts exacerbate public health challenges in Sub-Saharan Africa. Inequality across groups and poverty in rural areas can be an important factor in triggering local wars there. This study investigates whether equitable distribution of public services by governments across urban and rural geographical regions reduces the risk of local wars initiated by armed groups in Sub-Saharan African countries. Does an equitable distribution of public services such as healthcare and clean water public services across regions decrease the risk of armed conflicts? Uneven distribution of public services can increase the risk of conflict by contributing to group grievances, rural poverty, and rent-seeking competition over state resources. Analyses of 39 Sub-Saharan African countries from 1947 to 2021 show that a one-standard deviation increase in equal access to public services by urban-rural location lowers the risk of armed conflict a substantial 37 to 53 percent with consideration of a battery of control variables
