TL;DR: An extremely large magnetic entropy change has been discovered in magnetic materials when subjected to a change in the magnetic field as mentioned in this paper, which exceeds the reversible magnetocaloric effect in any known magnetic material by at least a factor of 2.
Abstract: An extremely large magnetic entropy change has been discovered in $\mathrm{Gd}{}_{5}(\mathrm{Si}{}_{2}\mathrm{Ge}{}_{2})$ when subjected to a change in the magnetic field. It exceeds the reversible (with respect to an alternating magnetic field) magnetocaloric effect in any known magnetic material by at least a factor of 2, and it is due to a first order $[\mathrm{ferromagnetic}(\mathrm{I})\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}\mathrm{ferromagnetic}(\mathrm{II})]$ phase transition at 276 K and its unique magnetic field dependence.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method of assaying soil phosphatase activity is described, which involves colorimetric estimation of the p-nitrophenol released by the enzyme when the soil is incubated with buffered (pH 6·5) sodium pnphosphorus solution and toluene at 37°C for 1 hour.
Abstract: A simple method of assaying soil phosphatase activity is described. It involves colorimetric estimation of the p-nitrophenol released by phosphatase activity when soil is incubated with buffered (pH 6·5) sodium p-nitrophenyl phosphate solution and toluene at 37° C for 1 hr. The method is rapid and precise, and it has significant advantages over methods previously proposed for assay of soil phosphatase activity.

TL;DR: PartitionFinder 2 is a program for automatically selecting best-fit partitioning schemes and models of evolution for phylogenetic analyses that includes the ability to analyze morphological datasets, new methods to analyze genome-scale datasets, and new output formats to facilitate interoperability with downstream software.
Abstract: PartitionFinder 2 is a program for automatically selecting best-fit partitioning schemes and models of evolution for phylogenetic analyses. PartitionFinder 2 is substantially faster and more efficient than version 1, and incorporates many new methods and features. These include the ability to analyze morphological datasets, new methods to analyze genome-scale datasets, new output formats to facilitate interoperability with downstream software, and many new models of molecular evolution. PartitionFinder 2 is freely available under an open source license and works on Windows, OSX, and Linux operating systems. It can be downloaded from www.robertlanfear.com/partitionfinder. The source code is available at https://github.com/brettc/partitionfinder.

TL;DR: VEGAN adds vegetation analysis functions to the general-purpose statistical program R, and implements several ordination methods, including Canonical Correspondence Analysis and Non-metric Multidimensional Scaling, vector fitting of environmental variables, randomization tests, and various other analyses of vegetation data.
Abstract: VEGAN adds vegetation analysis functions to the general-purpose statistical program R. Both R and VEGAN can be downloaded for free. VEGAN implements several ordination methods, including Canonical Correspondence Analysis and Non-metric Multidimensional Scaling, vector fitting of environmental variables, randomization tests, and various other analyses of vegetation data. It can be used for large data. Graphical output can be customized using the R language's extensive graphics capabilities. VEGAN is appropriate for routine and research use, if you are willing to learn some R. Abbreviation: MDS = Multidimensional Scaling.
