Box–Behnken optimization and ANN‐ANFIS integrated modelling for transesterification using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 11, Page 5991-6006, November 2026.
Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

Deep learning–assisted coral morphology cover across 742 sites on the Great Barrier Reef (2022–2025): A Great Reef Census citizen science dataset

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2026.
Abstract Citizen science can expand the spatial extent of coral reef surveys, but its value is often limited by inconsistent data quality and slow manual analysis. Here we combine volunteer‐collected imagery with deep learning to overcome these constraints, delivering validated coral cover data at scale.

ARTIFICIAL REEFS AS A PLATFORM FOR RESEARCH AND CONSERVATION IN CORAL REEF ECOSYSTEMS

, 2019
Artificial reefs (ARs) increasingly are being deployed to mitigate damage to coral reef ecosystems from local anthropogenic stressors and climate change. Evaluating the efficacy of ARs in enhancing or sustaining reef assemblages is key to assessing their

Evaluation of Diabetes Risk Models Applied to the Prediction of Incident Dysglycaemia in African and European Populations

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 10814-10826, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims We evaluated overall and sex‐specific performance of established diabetes risk models for predicting incident dysglycaemia in African and European populations. Materials and Methods We externally evaluated the African Diabetes Risk model, Finnish Diabetes Risk model, Epidemiological Study on the Insulin Resistance Syndrome model and the ...

Indicators for the management of coral reefs and their applications to marine protected areas [PDF]

Informed planning and decision-making in the management of natural resources requires an ability to integrate complex interactions in ecosystems and communicate these effectively to stakeholders. This involves coping with three fundamental dilemmas.
