abstract = {Men’s overrepresentation in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields is long standing and not fully understood. Since STEM fields drive much of the innovation that fuels economic growth, by not fully utilizing the potential of half the population, economies may be thereby missing out on valuable contributions. Thus, understanding this gap in representation is crucial. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of gender differences in the number of tertiary STEM students and graduates in the European Union from 1991 to 2019, with a focus on geographic representation and secular changes in the magnitude of these differences. A unique spatiotemporal analysis was performed for dentifying the extent of gender inequality in STEM fields across Europe. The analysis show that the general increase in participation in higher education doubled the number of women in tertiary education but not in STEM fields. Thus, women are consistently underrepresented among graduate entrepreneurs, especially in STEM. The results also revealed smaller gender differences in STEM in Central and Eastern European as well as Scandinavian countries than in Western European countries, but similar patterns across generations were observed. This work identifies the relationship between women’s growth in STEM fields, the effectiveness of chosen policy measures, and the untapped potential of women to fill a possible shortage of graduates in STEM fields. © (2025), (Hungarian Central Statistical Office).

abstract = {Background: In February 2022, Russian Federation troops attacked Ukraine on several fronts, thereby starting a war that continues to this day. The invasion garnered worldwide opposition, leading to sanctions imposed on politicians and corporations in the Russian Federation. The war has also left its mark on art, culture, and science. Methods: In this study, we analyse the war in Ukraine and how scholars around the world have examined it. The analysis is divided into three parts: (1) a comprehensive review of the number of articles and conference proceedings related to the Russia-Ukraine war in the Web of Science (WoS) disciplines/categories; (2) the main topics and directions chosen by the authors; and (3) a summary of studies focused on COVID-19 during the war. The latter topic is particularly important, as the COVID-19 situation in Ukraine was already complex before the 2022 invasion, and the ongoing military actions have further exacerbated it. For the above analyses, we utilised a WoS database from 2014 (covering the first Russian attack on Crimea; Donetsk and Luhansk regions) through December 2022. Results and Conclusions: For academics, the war in Ukraine has become a significant subject of study. As it proliferated, culminating in a direct mass attack in February 2022, research efforts involved more and more scientific fields. These fields range from political science and sociology research to psychology and marketing to engineering science or supply chains. © 2024 Kamil Maciuk, Paulina Lewinska, Artur Krawczyk, Piotr Trojanski, Michal Apollo and David C.

abstract = {The frequency and intensity of Compound Drought and Heatwave Events (CDHEs) have significantly increased under global change, extensively impacting societies and ecosystems. This study aims to identify CDHEs and thoroughly analyze their characteristics and trends. By combining the Standardized Precipitation Evaporation Index (SPEI) and Heatwave Index (HWI), a Compound Drought and Heatwave Index (CDHI) is developed. The regional event identification algorithm, Intensity-Area-Duration (IAD), is applied for CDHE detection. Analysis of warm-season CDHEs (May–October) reveals a notable rise in frequency and duration, particularly after 2000 across China. High-prevalence areas include Northwest China (especially central and eastern Xinjiang) and the Southeast. In addition to frequency and number of days, the intensity, duration, and impact area of CDHEs all showed increasing trends, with relatively consistent spatial distribution patterns. The intensity, duration, and impact area of CDHEs in the Northwest and Southern regions were higher than in the Northeast. A notable positive correlation was found between intensity, duration, and impact area, suggesting that longer durations are associated with higher intensity and larger impact areas. These findings are valuable for enhancing disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation. In light of growing CDHE severity, a strategy emphasizing mitigation while equally addressing adaptation is essential. © 2025 The Author(s).

abstract = {Seed cones in gymnosperms consist of scales composed of dead cells at maturity. In Abies concolor, seed release occurs when entire seed-scale complexes, including sterile bracts that support the ovuliferous scales, are shed, causing the cone to disintegrate. This process is driven by the hygroscopic movements of the scales, which result from the reversible and uneven deformation of dead tissues in response to changes in water content. Unlike pine seed cones, which serve as a model for scale movement studies, fir features large, lamina-like ovuliferous scales that undergo extensive movements, including significant changes in surface area and profound shape transformations. Therefore, the objective of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of scale movement in fir. Quantification of surface deformation of the scale lamina and isolated tissues during transitions between dry and wet states revealed significantly higher deformation of abaxial than adaxial scale surface. Analysis of scale anatomy and chemical composition of cell walls identified three plate-shaped building blocks of the lamina: a relatively loose adaxial plate; a plate including vascular bundles built of thick-walled xylem fibers, with walls rich in xylosyl residues; an abaxial plate rich in mannosyl residues and comprising scattered sclerenchyma fibers and compact epidermis. Mechanical damaging of lamina surface and dissection of individual plates showed that lamina actuation is resilient and lamina movements are driven by interplay between the three plates. The relative plate contribution to the lamina volume tunes the extent of hygroscopic movements. In particular, different contribution of the adaxial plate to the scale thickness and related asymmetry of position of vascular bundle plate explain the profound discrepancy in the degree of scale bending despite the similarities in tissue structure, chemical composition and surface strains of individual scales. We postulate that the hygroscopic movements are tuned by simple quantitative modifications of the lamina Bauplan.

abstract = {This study evaluates the effectiveness of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on six machine learning models in predicting flood susceptibility in the Dwarakeswar river basin in Eastern India. Fifteen flood conditioning factors were employed as input predictors. The dataset underwent a series of pre-processing procedures, including conducting a statistical Pearson correlation, ordinary least squares (OLS), and multi-collinearity analysis, to identify the best flood-contributing factors. Additionally, the Information Gain Ratio (InGR) feature selection technique was utilized to assess the relevance of features. The accuracy of the models during the validation phases was assessed using various statistical metrics such as accuracy, kappa score, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Although all models demonstrated robust flood prediction abilities (AUC > 0.988), the AHP-Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) model exhibited the highest performance (AUC = 0.996). This indicates that, among the models examined, the AHP-GBM model holds significant promise for evaluating flood-prone regions and facilitating effective planning and management of flood hazards. This model identified 12.68% and 5.14% of the study area as very high and high flood susceptibility zones, respectively. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis shows that the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI), rainfall, elevation, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), proximity to rivers, drainage density, and Terrain Ruggedness Indices (TRI) are the best influences on flood probability. Based on the climate projections from future Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) models (SSP2 4.5; SSP5 8.5), the southern region of the study area has been pinpointed as a hotspot for flooding vulnerability, with a susceptibility level classified as very high, encompassing 16.68% of the area. © The Author(s) 2025.},

abstract = {This article summarizes studies of soil enzymatic activity in novel ecosystems, particularly mineral post-mining sites. The potential role of soil enzymatic activity in novel ecosystems spontaneously re-established on post-mining sites in the management activity. Soil enzymes are crucial for nutrient cycling, including carbon cycling. This needs consideration in the novel ecosystem functions that develop on post-mining sites and the ecosystem services that this ecosystem can provide. Soil enzymes, including dehydrogenases, phosphatases, and urease, are analyzed to understand their role in organic matter cycling. The research emphasizes the impact of vegetation on enzyme activity, highlighting the intricate relationships between plants, microorganisms, and soil properties. The aim of this study is to review the current study results concerning the enzymatic activity in the mineral post-mining substratum as a tool for vegetation diversity and novel ecosystem functioning assessment. The performed review and bibliometric analysis reveal the growing interest in soil enzyme research across various scientific disciplines. However, a more specialized subset of articles focusing on soil enzyme activity in mineral post-mining sites indicates a need for targeted investigation. The study contributes to our understanding of the complex interplay between novel ecosystem's functioning processes, vegetation, and soil enzyme activity, providing insights into the less-explored habitat type of mineral post-mining sites. © 2025 Institute of Physics Publishing.

abstract = {Studies on biodiversity and biomass productivity in ecosystems indicate that species richness and functional diversity drive ecosystem processes, including biomass productivity. Various models, such as unimodal, negative, and neutral, including complementarity and mass-ratio hypotheses, propose relationships between biodiversity and biomass. Despite numerous studies in natural and seminatural ecosystems, factors affecting biodiversity and biomass relationships remain controversial. This study analyses taxonomic and functional diversity as drivers of above-ground biomass and explores mechanisms influencing biomass production in spontaneous vegetation in post-mining mineral habitats. The study reveals that in the coal mines’ mineral novel ecosystems, the highest biomass in spontaneous vegetation is not significantly correlated with high diversity in vegetation species composition. Harsh conditions in mineral material habitats are reflected in plant species and the functional diversity of spontaneous vegetation. Successional development on post-coal mine heaps exhibits non-analogous species composition. Biotic and abiotic conditions shape gradients along which vegetation species composition is distributed, influencing functional and taxonomical diversity, and ultimately impacting biomass quality, quantity, and ecosystem function. Contrary to expectations, higher biomass is not linked to vegetation types with greater species composition diversity. Regardless of diversity measurement, areas with lower species diversity show higher accumulated biomass. This paradox suggests that factors beyond species diversity significantly impact biomass quantity in ecosystems. These findings challenge assumptions, emphasising the need for further research into specific mechanisms regulating biomass quantity in different vegetation types to refine our understanding of ecosystem dynamics. © 2025.

abstract = {Phosphide-bearing diopside-anorthite paralava found in the distribution area of the pyrometamorphic rocks of the Hatrurim Complex in Jordan (Daba-Siwaqa field) and Israel (Hatrurim Basin field) have yielded a large number of new phosphides and phosphates. In 2019, a small outcrop of phosphide-bearing breccia with cement composed of gehlenite-flamite paralava was discovered in the Hatrurim Basin. A new pyrophosphate, yamhamelachite, KCrP2O7 (P21/c; a = 7.3574(3); b = 9.9336(4); c = 8.1540(4) Å; β = 106.712(5)°; V = 570.77(5)Å3; Z = 4), occurs at the phosphide-enriched boundary between an altered sedimentary xenolith and the gehlenite-flamite paralava. Yamhamelachite forms green aggregates in which the size of grains does not exceed 25-30 μm. The mineral is transparent with a glassy lustre. Yamhamelachite is brittle with conchoidal fracture. Mohs hardness = 4. The empirical formula of yamhamelachite calculated on the basis of average microprobe analyses is (K0.89Ca0.010.10)∑1.00 Cr3+0.50V3+0.33Al0.15Fe3+0.04 Ti4+0.03)∑1.05P1.98O7. The density calculated from the empirical formula and structural data is 3.035 g·cm-3. Cr3+ in yamhamelachite is substituted by V3+, and in a few cases V is marginally more abundant than Cr, indicating the presence of a potentially new mineral with the formula KVP2O7. Yamhamelachite consists of layers of Cr3+-octahedra and pyrophosphate groups connected at their apices, and potassium located within channels parallel to [001]. A characteristic feature of phosphide aggregates associated with yamhamelachite is the presence of two generations of barringerite, the earlier of which has higher Cr and V content. In the general crystallisation sequence, yamhamelachite appears after phosphides (+pyrrhotite, daubréelite) and then spinels of the chromite-magnetite series crystallise, along with ferromerrillite and ferroalluaudite. The source of chromium for yamhamelachite was mainly V-Cr-bearing pyrrhotite and V-bearing daubréelite. The low Fe3+ content in yamamelachite, likely related to its late-stage alteration, indicates that it crystallised from phosphate melt under reducing conditions at ~1000°С. © 2025 Cambridge University Press.

Analytical approaches to determining the dispersion of harmful gases are analyzed. The results of the study of the processes of formation and dispersion of harmful gases in windless weather and at a wind speed of 2 m/s, during explosions of reference and new industrial mixed (emulsion) substances in quarries are presented. The results of calculations of the index of atmospheric pollution by carbon monoxide and the magnitude of the potential risk to the health of the population during the detonation of various types of explosives are revealed. A comparative analysis of TNT and non-TNT types of explosives regarding the effects on atmospheric pollution was carried out. The values of CO concentration of 60 s after the detonation of explosives at different distances from the explosion site were studied. Calculations of the index of atmospheric pollution by carbon monoxide and the magnitude of the potential risk to the health of the population during explosions of non-TNT emulsion explosives in comparison with traditional explosives were carried out. The research results showed the advantage of emulsion explosives without TNT content, and the most environmentally safe is the use of emulsion explosive ERA-A1. The transformation of mining enterprises in the direction of the "green transition" requires the minimization of environmental and climatic risks when using explosives, which requires the transition to new, safer types of explosives. © 2025 Institute of Physics Publishing.

abstract = {This study investigates the developmental processes of the pancreas in two squamate species: the sand lizard (Lacerta agilis; Laterata) and the brown anole (Anolis sagrei; Iguania). Utilizing histological serial sections, we generated 3D reconstructions of the pancreas and its associated structures. Through a comparative analysis, we identified shared developmental events, including the emergence of specific structures and the initiation of distinct processes, to elucidate patterns of pancreatic differentiation and morphology. The pancreas of the sand lizard originates from three buds, while that of the brown anole originates from only two. In the sand lizard, the adult-like pancreas has an elongated Y-shape, while in the brown anole, the pancreas resembles the letter T on its side. Despite the differences in shape, in both species, the pancreas consists of four parts: the splenic lobe, the head of the pancreas, and the upper and lower lobes. The distal end of the splenic lobe in both species forms a thickened region called the juxtasplenic body. In the brown anole, endocrine islets are found only in the splenic lobe, and there are no islets in the other parts of the embryonic pancreas. In contrast, two clusters were identified in the pancreas of the sand lizard: one within the juxtasplenic body and the smaller one located where the splenic lobe emerges from the head of the pancreas. Both species differ in the topology of the ducts. In the sand lizard, the cystic and hepatic ducts enter the upper lobe of the pancreas, pass into the head of the pancreas, and form the common bile duct, which drains into the duodenum. In the brown anole, the cystic and hepatic ducts run along the upper lobe of the pancreas, then enter the head of the pancreas and form the common bile duct, which drains into the duodenum. Based on similarities between the brown anole, varanid lizards, and snakes, we propose that there is a common developmental sequence in toxicoferans and the adult pancreas of the brown anole represents an intermediate condition between “typical,” elongated three-lobed lizard morphology and the shortened and partially compact pancreas of varanid lizards. This adds another grade of variation within the evolutionary pathway leading to the compact pancreas of snakes. On the other hand, the development and the adult-like morphology of the sand lizard pancreas strongly resemble the “typical”, plesiomorphic, lizard condition. This work contributes to a deeper understanding of squamate anatomy and may shed light on the evolution of the pancreas in this clade. © 2025 Anatomical Society.},

abstract = {Despite the widespread popularity of charcoal-based grilling fuels, extensive studies have highlighted various pollutants linked to their production and combustion, posing potential risks to human health and the environment. Since the presence of impurities has been identified as a factor contributing to elevated emissions of harmful gases and particulate matter, a comprehensive quality assessment of grilling fuels is imperative to effectively manage and minimise potential risks to customer health and safety. While identifying many impurities in solid biomass fuels is possible through microscopic analysis, identifying fossil coal contaminants in charcoal briquettes can be challenging. The biggest difficulty arises when coal-derived inertinite and man-made charcoal need to be distinguished as both exhibit numerous visual similarities in microscopic images. Therefore, the goal of this study was to examine the optical morphology of inertinite and charcoal with the aim of differentiating them when they co-occur in charcoal briquettes. The results show that employing high differential interference (DIC) and fluorescence filters, coupled with reflected white light in microscopic analysis, can enhance the observations allowing for easier detection of impurities of inertinite in charcoal-based grilling fuels. Among the most notable distinctions are the high degree of cellular structure preservation and the presence of small pores and protrusions in man-made charcoal; these characteristics are typically absent in the inertinite fragments. © 2025.

abstract = {Human activity causes changes in habitat conditions. Where habitat conditions have been significantly altered by human activities, novel ecosystems emerge. This paper aims to analyse novel ecosystem parameters, particularly in relation to biodiversity and restoration law. It presents the role of novel ecosystems in ecosystem functioning and their significance within urban-industrial landscapes. Based on extensive literature reviews, that these ecosystems have been a subject of scientific interest for many years. However, comprehensive knowledge of these ecosystems still needs to be broadened. An interdisciplinary approach to their management is essential. The European Union (EU) has implemented various legislative and policy measures aimed at restoring and conserving natural ecosystems and biodiversity across different members states. Key initiatives include the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, EU Habitats Directive, and EU Funding Programs, all of which promote sustainable development and strengthen restoration laws. Only a proper identification and understanding of novel ecosystems and their ecological processes can contribute to implementing relevant legal actions. In the urban industry landscape, the poor mineral post-mining habitat sites have the unique potential to harbor and develop biodiversity hot spots in densely populated areas. Many of these sites with very harsh habitat conditions that have been left to spontaneous processes going on have become protected sites with outstanding biodiversity established (e.g.; Bytom city). Such examples in Silesia (S Poland) provide proof that such solutions should be a constant element of the post-mining site management plans. © 2025. The Authors.},

abstract = {The middle endodermal region of the digestive system (midgut) of arthropods is responsible for processes related to digestion but is also considered an organ participating in homeostasis maintenance. Therefore, many experimental studies, for example, related to the effect of various stressors on the organism, are conducted on the epithelium of this intestine. However, it is important to know the basic structure and ultrastructure of the midgut tissues. In myriapods (e.g.; millipedes), the midgut has the form of a simple tube lined with a single layer of epithelium, surrounded by hepatic cells and visceral muscles. Considering the fact that millipedes can inhabit various terrestrial environments, feed on a variety of foods, and are important links in food chains, they can be considered good models for ecotoxicological studies. Thus, we selected eight species belonging to the family Julidae (order Julida) to investigate whether any distinct ground pattern for this organ appears within one millipede systematic group and whether it is possible to translate it into the general pattern of the midgut epithelium in millipedes: Leptoiulus sarajevensis (Verhoeff; 1898), Leptoiulus trilineatus (C. L. Koch; 1847), Cylindroiulus boleti (C. L. Koch; 1847), Megaphyllum bosniense (Verhoeff; 1897), Pachyiulus cattarensis (Latzel; 1884) and Pachyiulus hungaricus (Karsch; 1881) as representatives of the epigean fauna as well as Leucogeorgia longipes Verhoeff, 1930 and Leucogeorgia gioi Antić and Reip, 2020 as true cave-dwelling species. The study was performed using light and transmission electron microscopy. The results revealed a general pattern of all cells forming the midgut epithelium in Julidae, as well as the hepatic cells surrounding the midgut. Some small differences were observed, which are probably related to the type of food consumed. Copyright Magdalena Rost-Roszkowska et al.},

abstract = {Drought stress can damage crop growth and lead to a decline in yield, thereby affecting food security, especially in regions vulnerable to climate change. SNAC1 (stress-responsive NAC1), the NAC transcription factor family member, plays a crucial role in stomatal movement regulation. Effective regulation of stomatal movement is essential for protecting plants from water loss during adverse conditions. Our hypothesis revolves around altering HvSNAC1 activity by introducing a point mutation in its encoding gene, thereby influencing stomatal dynamics in barley. Two TILLING mutants, each harboring missense mutations in the NAC domain, exhibited higher stomatal density after drought stress compared to the parent cultivar ‘Sebastian’. These mutants also demonstrated distinct patterns of ABA-induced stomatal movement compared to the wild-type (WT). To delve deeper, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the transcriptomes of these mutants and the parent cultivar ‘Sebastian’ under both optimal watering conditions and 10 days of drought stress treatment. We identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the mutants and WT plants under control and drought conditions. Furthermore, we pinpointed DEGs specifically expressed in both mutants under drought conditions. Our experiments revealed that the cis-regulatory motif CACG, previously identified in Arabidopsis and rice, is recognized by HvSNAC1 in vitro. Enrichment analysis led to the identification of the cell wall organization category and potential target genes, such as HvEXPA8 (expansin 8), HvXTH (xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase), and HvPAE9 (pectin acetylesterase 9), suggesting their regulation by HvSNAC1. These findings suggest that HvSNAC1 may play a role in regulating genes associated with stomatal density, size and reopening. © The Author(s) 2025.},

abstract = {Increasing usage of nanoparticles or nanomaterials may lead to their release into the environment. The toxicity of these structures, classified as contaminants of emerging concern, is not yet sufficiently understood. However, as in the case of other environmental stressors, the effects of exposure to them should be analyzed on a multigenerational scale to predict the consequences for exposed populations. Therefore, this project aimed to assess the impact of graphene oxide (GO) nanomaterial on digestive enzyme activities in the house cricket Acheta domesticus as a model species, depending on GO concentration (0.2 or 0.02 µg·g−1dry weight of food), previous selection for longevity and the number of generations (1-5) that have occurred since the beginning of exposure. The last and sixth generations were insects for which GO was withdrawn from the diet (recovery generation). Enzymatic activity was tested using API Zym kit modified for spectrophotometric reads. The tests revealed that GO intervenes with some digestive enzymes. Moreover, the effects of GO depend on the population’s previous selection for longevity. The impact of mechanisms mitigating the consequences of aging supports the possible tolerance to GO intoxication. It demonstrated itself in diverse patterns of multigenerational response to GO in wild and long-lived insects. Also, multigenerational exposure revealed the ‘third generation’ effect. Finally, the impact of GO elimination depended on the concentration of nanomaterial used for the tests. Also, the potential impact of concentration-dependent agglomeration of GO in the context of hormesis has been discussed. © 2025 The Author(s).

abstract = {This study employs random forest (RF) to improve the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) dataset’s usability. The combination of monthly relative humidity, maximum and minimum temperature, and rainfall from selected CFSR data points, along with the monthly average of proximate weather stations, was used as the RF input to predict a bias-reduced CFSR (RF-CFSR). The RF-CFSR datasets conform to the observed climate data in terms of seasonal patterns and magnitude relative to CFSR data. Cumulative distribution plots revealed that RF is as efficient as quantile mapping for bias reduction in CFSR data. Based on maximum and minimum temperature, rainfall, and relative humidity, RF reduces the mean absolute error by about 75%, 50%, 39%, and 62%, respectively. The RF-CFSR also improved the index of agreement (d), Kling-Gupta efficiency, correlation coefficient (R) and coefficient of determination (R2), which were 8–15%, 7–88%, 5–32%, and 12–77%, respectively, at one of the ground stations. © 2025 The Author(s).

abstract = {Aluminum (Al) is the third, most abundant element in the Earth's crust. When soil pH drops below 5.5, Al is released from minerals, which threatens plant growth. The roots are particularly vulnerable to Al stress because Al ions can penetrate them, causing growth reduction by inhibiting the cell cycle and decreasing root cell elongation. Al has the ability to bind to cell structures, including cell walls, cytoskeleton, or DNA, which disturb their functions. Plants have developed various response strategies, such as the exclusion of organic acids into the rhizosphere or the detoxification of Al in the vacuole. STOP1 (Sensitive To Proton Rhizotoxicity 1) is the critical regulator of the expression of tolerance-related genes and is present in both mono- and dicots plants. The activity of STOP1 can be regulated on post-transcription and post-translation levels. This review paper presents an overview of the latest literature, aiming to accurately present the problem of Al toxicity and its effect on plant functioning. Moreover, the well-studied mechanisms of plant response and future prospects, like the use of polyamines, miRNAs, or DDR (DNA Damage Response) pathway, will be presented, which are opportunities to develop new plant varieties that are tolerant to Al stress. © The Author(s) 2024.},
