Abstract Carbonate gas reservoirs are often characterized by strong heterogeneity, complex inter-well connectivity, extensive edge or bottom water, and unbalanced production, challenges that are also common in many heterogeneous gas reservoirs with intricate storage and flow behavior. To address these issues within a unified, data-driven framework, this study develops a multi-block material balance model that accounts for inter-block flow and aquifer influx, and is applicable to a wide range of reservoir types. The model incorporates inter-well and well-group conductive connectivity together with pseudo–steady-state aquifer support. The governing equations are solved using a Newton–Raphson scheme, while particle More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Cyprus has an extensive record in grape production and winemaking. Grapevine is essential for the economic and environmental sustainability of the agricultural sector, as it is in other Mediterranean regions. Intensive agriculture can overuse and exhaust natural resources, including soil and water. The current study evaluated how conservation strategies, including no tillage and semi-tillage (as a variation of strip tillage), affected grapevine growth and grape quality when compared to conventional tillage application. Two cultivars were used: Chardonnay and Maratheftiko (indigenous). Soil pH decreased, and EC increased after tillage applications, in both vineyards. Tillage lowered soil… More >

Abstract Moringa oleifera (MO) is traditionally used to mitigate inflammatory-mediated disorders; however, the influence of ecotypic variation on its anti-inflammatory activity remains poorly understood. In this study, we compared the phytochemical composition and anti-inflammatory activity of ethanolic extracts obtained from fresh and dried leaves of four MO ecotypes (India, Paraguay, Mozambique, and Pakistan), all grown under the same outdoor conditions, as well as two commercial powders (Just Moringa and WISSA), using LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. Extracts from fresh leaves were 19–43% more cytotoxic than those from dried leaves, depending on the ecotype, likely due to higher cyanogenic… More >

Abstract The combined effects of macronutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium-N, P, K) and micronutrient fertilization on turmeric yield, soil enzymatic activity, microbial biomass, and nutrient dynamics remains poorly understood, despite their significance for sustainable soil fertility management and optimizing crop productivity across diverse agroecosystems. To investigate, a net house experiment on sandy loam Haplic Chernozem was conducted to 03 fertilizer regimes, viz. N₇₅P₅₀K₅₀ kg ha⁻¹ (T-2), N₁₂₅P₁₀₀K₁₀₀ kg ha⁻¹ (T-3), and N₁₀₀P₇₅K₇₅ + B₃Zn₆Fe₆ kg ha⁻¹ (T-4). Furthermore, the influence of these treatments was systematically assessed on soil nutrient status (N, P, K), enzymatic activities (alkaline phosphomonoesterase, dehydrogenase, fluorescein diacetate… More >

Abstract Panax species are globally recognized for their high medicinal and economic value, yet large-scale cultivation is constrained by high production costs, progressive soil acidification, and persistent soil-borne diseases. Although various soil improvement strategies have been tested, a comprehensive synthesis of their comparative effectiveness has been lacking. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis of 1381 observations from 54 independent studies to evaluate the effects of conventional fertilizers, microbial fertilizers, organic amendments, and inorganic amendments on Panax cultivation. Our results demonstrate that microbial fertilizers, organic amendments, and inorganic amendments significantly increased soil pH, thereby ameliorating soil acidification. Among them,… More >

Abstract Mental-health risk detection seeks early signs of distress from social media posts and clinical transcripts to enable timely intervention before crises. When such risks go undetected, consequences can escalate to self-harm, long-term disability, reduced productivity, and significant societal and economic burden. Despite recent advances, detecting risk from online text remains challenging due to heterogeneous language, evolving semantics, and the sequential emergence of new datasets. Effective solutions must encode clinically meaningful cues, reason about causal relations, and adapt to new domains without forgetting prior knowledge. To address these challenges, this paper presents a Continual Neuro-Symbolic Graph… More >

Abstract Predicting the behavior of renewable energy systems requires models capable of generating accurate forecasts from limited historical data, a challenge that becomes especially pronounced when commissioning new facilities where operational records are scarce. This review aims to synthesize recent progress in data-efficient deep learning approaches for addressing such “cold-start” forecasting problems. It primarily covers three interrelated domains—solar photovoltaic (PV), wind power, and electrical load forecasting—where data scarcity and operational variability are most critical, while also including representative studies on hydropower and carbon emission prediction to provide a broader systems perspective. To this end, we examined… More >

Abstract Accurate wind speed prediction is crucial for stabilizing power grids with high wind energy penetration. This study presents a novel machine learning model that integrates clustering, deep learning, and transfer learning to mitigate accuracy degradation in 24-h forecasting. Initially, an optimized DB-SCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) algorithm clusters wind fields based on wind direction, probability density, and spectral features, enhancing physical interpretability and reducing training complexity. Subsequently, a ResNet (Residual Network) extracts multi-scale patterns from decomposed wind signals, while transfer learning adapts the backbone network across clusters, cutting training time by over… More >

Abstract The technical, economic, and environmental performance of solar hot-water (SWH) systems for Swedish residential apartments—where approximately 80% of household energy is devoted to space heating and sanitary hot-water production—was assessed. Two collector types, flat plate (FP) and evacuated tube (ET), were simulated in TSOL Pro 5.5 for five major cities (Stockholm, Göteborg, Malmö, Uppsala, Linköping). Climatic data and cold-water temperatures were sourced from Meteonorm 7.1, and economic parameters were derived from recent national statistics and literature. All calculations explicitly accounted for heat losses from collectors, storage tanks, and internal and external piping systems, and established… More >

Abstract Addressing the limitations of inadequate stochastic disturbance characterization during wind turbine degradation processes that result in constrained modeling accuracy, replacement-based maintenance practices that deviate from actual operational conditions, and static maintenance strategies that fail to adapt to accelerated deterioration trends leading to suboptimal remaining useful life utilization, this study proposes a Time-Based Incomplete Maintenance (TBIM) strategy incorporating reliability constraints through stochastic differential equations (SDE). By quantifying stochastic interference via Brownian motion terms and characterizing nonlinear degradation features through state influence rate functions, a high-precision SDE degradation model is constructed, achieving 16% residual reduction compared to… More >
