Turbulence-model libraries accompanying > P. Sander, R. Lechner: *Very-Large Eddy Simulation of Hydrogen-Air Jet Mixing Using> Algebraically Reconstructed Length Scales*. Submitted to Flow, Turbulence and Combustion, 2026. The libraries implement a very-large eddy simulation (VLES) on the one-equation,wall-distance-free Wray-Agarwal model (WA2018; Han, Rahman and Agarwal, 2018). Theresolution-control function F_r of Han and Krajnović (2013) rescales the eddy viscosity.The turbulent kinetic energy, dissipation rate and specific dissipation rate needed for itslength scales are reconstructed algebraically from the transported viscosity and the strainrate (Section 2.4 of the paper). A two-equation counterpart on the k-omega SST model uses thesame resolution-control function and constants.

The article reviews the properties of basalt fabrics and the prospects for their application in protective footwear construction based on published literature. The range of basalt fabrics manufactured by APITEKS LLC in Uzbekistan is presented. Studies on fabric surface modification and the development of multilayer material assemblies are analysed. The need for a comprehensive assessment of thermal protection, resistance to repeated flexing, and hygienic properties when selecting footwear materials is substantiated.

This dataset supports a global multilevel meta-analysis of how anthropogenic and climatic stressors affect the biological responses of intertidal taxa. It contains the literature screening records (Scopus and Web of Science, search run on 1 September 2025), the full extraction matrix of 4,390 control-versus-treatment comparisons from 64 studies, and the primary analysis dataset of 3,439 Hedges' g effect sizes from 59 studies. It also includes a data dictionary, the list of included studies, the a priori classification of 185 response variables by direction of response (with an independent blind classification and inter-rater agreement), the ratio-scale classification used in a log response ratio sensitivity analysis, and the R script that reproduces all analyses, tables and figures. The data cover rocky, sandy and muddy shores and vegetated intertidal habitats worldwide and all phyla in the dataset, with Mollusca, Ochrophyta and Tracheophyta as focal phyla.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder resulting from interactions between genetic susceptibility and environmental factors during critical periods of brain development. Increasing evidence implicates environmental neurotoxicants, particularly toxic metals and pesticides, in ASD risk through oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, blood–brain barrier impairment, epigenetic alterations, and persistent neuroinflammation. Neuroimmune dysregulation, including chronic microglial and astrocyte activation, cytokine imbalance, and altered peripheral immune responses, may contribute to abnormal neuronal development and connectivity. These effects may be amplified by gene–environment interactions, increasing individual susceptibility. This review summarizes epidemiological and experimental evidence linking toxic metals and pesticides to ASD, with emphasis on molecular and neuroimmune mechanisms, emerging biomarkers, and preventive strategies. Despite advances in understanding these pathways, causal relationships and clinical translation remain challenging. Integrating epidemiology, toxicology, molecular neuroscience, and multi-omics approaches may help identify susceptible populations, validate biomarkers, and improve targeted prevention and early intervention.

This zenodo record contains data accompanying the paper "Canopy temperatures in computationally expensive crop models: a resource-efficient emulator approach applied in LPJmL (version 5.9.18)" submitted to GMD (Hemmen et al., 2025).  The data are used in this study, in which an emulator approach is developed to simulate canopy temperatures in global crop models. The developed approach is applied and tested in the dynamic global vegetation model LPJmL. For a global evaluation, the canopy temperatures simulated with LPJmL are compared to ERA5 skin temperatures based on data provided by the Copernicus Climate Change Service, Climate Data Store (Copernicus Climate Change Service, Climate Data Store, (2023); Hersbach et al. (2023), https://doi.org/10.24381/cds.adbb2d47), that have been released for use under the CC-BY licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode). This zenodo record contains the respective processed files in .nc format. Based on the downloaded original hourly ERA5 data from the Copernicus Climate Change Service, the files provided here have been temporally and spatially aggregated (using CDO). The provided file archive includes daily mean and maximum skin and 2 m air temperatures (both in [K]) for 67420 cells  (0.5° resolution) for the year 1990.  Attribution Copernicus programme: Generated using or contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information.

A curator-in-the-loop web application for building molecular Adverse Outcome Pathways — the layer connecting the Key Events of an AOP to the molecular pathways and processes that underlie them.Candidate WikiPathways pathways, Gene Ontology Biological Process and Molecular Function terms, and Reactome pathways are ranked by BioBERT semantic similarity to the Key Event. A curator assigns a confidence level through a structured rubric, and an administrator approves each mapping before it enters the public REST API. Approved mappings are exportable as GMT (for fgsea and clusterProfiler), RDF/Turtle with full curation provenance, CSV and JSON, and are consumed downstream by the Molecular AOP Analyser.This record archives the application source code, under GPL-2.0-only. The curated mapping dataset it produces is a separate Zenodo deposit with its own concept DOI, 10.5281/zenodo.20184643, released under CC0 1.0 — except Key Event titles, which are reproduced from AOP-Wiki under CC BY-SA 4.0.
