Effect of different flue gas recirculation rates on low‐NOx combustion characteristics: A numerical simulation based on the combustion process of a gas boiler

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 3970-3983, August 2026.
Abstract NOx emissions from gas boilers severely impact the environment, and flue gas recirculation (FGR) technology can effectively reduce such emissions, yet the effects of different FGR rates on combustion performance and NOx formation remain unclear. This study thus used numerical simulation (via ANSYS Fluent, adopting the realizable k‐ε turbulence

Intangible drivers of tolerance shape human–elephant coexistence in Southwest China

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2763-2780, August 2026.
Abstract Southwest China is home to a small but rapidly expanding population of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus), whose growth has intensified conflicts with people living in shared landscapes. These conflicts result in substantial economic losses and occasional human casualties. This coexistence paradox—where conservation success leads to significant

3D Liver Fibrosis Models in Lab: A Novel Modality for Drug Screening

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Liver fibrosis is the common consequence of liver injury caused by a variety of chronic liver disorders. This condition leads to the development of more severe complications, particularly cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite abundant studies, the fundamental cell and molecular mechanisms of liver fibrosis are still unknown.

Elevated Spring Methane Emissions in a Sub‐Arctic Peatland Fen

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Arctic boreal region is rapidly shifting in response to global climate change, including rapid warming and permafrost thaw. Year‐round monitoring of carbon fluxes in these regions is crucial to understanding seasonal and annual carbon budgets, including methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas with 80 times the warming potential of carbon ...
