ABSTRACT Background: Xinjiang brown cattle (XBC) is an important dual-purpose cattle breed in Xinjiang，China. However, the carcass traits, meat quality and muscle fibre properties of XBC-beef type I, Type II and type III remain poorly understood. Methods: Twenty-four bulls (24 ± 3 months) were allocated to four groups (6 bulls in each group), i.e., XBC as the control, XBC-Beef Type I, Type II, and Type III, their carcass traits, meat quality, and muscle fibre histology after 180 days of finishing were evaluated under identical feeding regime and condition. Results:Relative to the control, Type III exhibited greater body diagonal length, chest girth, and cannon girth (P < 0.05), while Type I–III showed heavier body and carcass weights (P < 0.01). Loin-eye area was larger in Type III (P < 0.05). Type III had higher intramuscular fat content across all three muscles (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), lower shear force (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and elevated water-holding capacity in supraspinatus and longissimus thoracis (P < 0.05). Cooking loss was reduced in supraspinatus and longissimus thoracis (P < 0.05), with improved meat colour in Type III (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Histologically, Type III displayed smaller fibre diameters (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) and a shift toward oxidative phenotypes—higher Type I and IIa proportions in supraspinatus and semitendinosus, and selective IIa increase in longissimus thoracis (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusions: Progressive Canadian Braunvieh introgression improved growth, carcass traits, and meat quality in Xinjiang Brown cattle, with Type III exhibiting the most pronounced enhancements in body size, carcass weight, intramuscular fat, tenderness, and meat colour, alongside smaller fibre diameters and a shift toward oxidative fibre phenotypes. These findings indicate that Type III can serve as a valuable reference for meat quality traits in the breeding of specialized Xinjiang Brown cattle beef-types.

This repository contains the curated data and supporting reproducibility materials for a systematic evidence map and critical conceptual synthesis of knowledge transferability in urban heat-mitigation research. The review examines what types of knowledge generated in one urban context may be transferable to another, the boundary conditions that constrain transfer, and the extent to which transferability has been explicitly tested in the existing literature. The deposited materials include: (1) the curated publication-level analytical dataset used for the synthesis; (2) the supporting evidence inventory; (3) source data used to generate the manuscript figures; (4) documentation of the literature-search, screening, retrieval and study-flow procedures; and (5) a README describing the repository contents and relevant data fields. The files support verification of the reported corpus counts, study classifications, evidence distributions, transferability assessments, boundary-condition synthesis and descriptive figures presented in the associated review. The analytical data are derived from published literature and were curated and coded specifically for this study. Copyrighted full-text articles are not redistributed in this repository; bibliographic information is provided to identify the underlying publications. The repository is intended to facilitate transparency, reproducibility and subsequent research on the transferability of urban heat-mitigation knowledge across climatic, morphological, methodological and institutional contexts.

Tide gauge records are amongst the oldest and most numerous oceanographic records available. They provide critical information to the study of changes in tidal signals, storminess, storm surge, and mean sea level. Many years, likely thousands of years cumulatively, of paper data remain undigitized across the globe. Traditional manual methods of digitization are slow. Here we test whether an AI-powered optical character recognition (OCR) system can rapidly and accurately digitize images of paper tide records. About 21,000 hourly records were processed in 2-3 hours per model year, approximately 5-10 times faster than typical human-based efforts. The observed error rate of 1 in 129 points was slightly larger than, but comparable to, human error rates of roughly 1 in 160, based on previous digitization efforts. Image quality (primarily focus) was found to be an important determinant of processing accuracy. Our approach greatly expands the potential throughput of oceanographic digitization efforts, likely removes one of the major impediments to digitization and reanalysis of historical records, and thus our understanding of long-term changes caused by natural and anthropogenic processes.

This replication folder contains the relevant programs and calculations/data used in the paper mentioned above. These codes and calculations/data were used to produce the paper's figures and tables. One may use them to replicate the paper's findings. MATLAB 2025a or higher (with Econometrics and Optimization toolboxes) is required to run these codes. This paper develops a micro-founded monetary model in which a profit-maximizing monopolist payment network endogenously determines transaction fees alongside agents' portfolio choices between cash and e-money, which is more secure than cash. There are two equilibrium regimes with e-money: a mixed equilibrium, where both monies circulate, and a pure e-money equilibrium. Threat of entry from a competing network constrains the monopolist's fee, significantly shrinking the monetary policies and parameter values that support the pure e-money equilibrium. Calibrated to 2024 U.S. data, the model yields a non-trivial monetary policy pass-through: a one percentage point increase in the nominal interest rate raises the equilibrium transaction fee by 0.13 - 0.35 percentage points. Despite competitive pressure from a potential entrant, e-money equilibria consistently deliver welfare losses relative to pure cash, driven by a holdup problem and the distortionary proportional fee.

This dataset contains indoor plant leaf images developed for research on automated plant disease classification and data augmentation. The dataset was created as part of the study “Deep Learning-Driven Leaf Disease Classification in Indoor Plants with YOLOv11: Stable Diffusion Augmentation Approach,” presented at the 2025 28th International Conference on Computer and Information Technology (ICCIT). The original dataset consists of 787 high-resolution images covering nine classes across three commonly cultivated indoor plant species: Money Plant, Snake Plant, and Spider Plant. The classes include Money Plant Bacterial Wilt Disease, Money Plant Healthy, Money Plant Manganese Toxicity, Snake Plant Anthracnose, Snake Plant Healthy, Snake Plant Leaf Withering, Spider Plant Fungal Leaf Spot, Spider Plant Healthy, and Spider Plant Leaf Tip Necrosis. Images were manually collected from several plant nurseries in Sylhet City, Bangladesh, under natural lighting using three different smartphones. The dataset is provided in three separate collections: 1. 01_raw_dataset_787_images.zip - The original dataset containing 787 manually collected images. 2. 02_traditional_augmented_dataset.zip - Images generated using traditional geometric and photometric augmentation with the Albumentations library, including horizontal flipping, random 90-degree rotation, brightness and contrast adjustment, color jitter, and Gaussian blur. This process expanded the dataset from 787 to 4,722 images. 3. 03_diffusion_augmented_dataset.zip - Synthetic image variants generated using Stable Diffusion v1.5 in image-to-image mode. Class-specific text prompts were used with the original images as inputs. The generation process used a denoising strength of 0.1, guidance scale of 7.5, and 30 inference steps. Generated images were manually reviewed for diagnostic relevance and visual realism. During preprocessing, images were quality-checked, converted to JPEG, resized to 224 × 224 pixels, and manually cropped to isolate the leaf region and reduce irrelevant background information. This dataset is intended for research in indoor plant disease classification, computer vision, deep learning, image augmentation, synthetic data generation, and plant health monitoring.
