Deep Spatially Varying Coefficient Model for Interpolation of Non‐Stationary Meteorological Data
Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 6, September 2026.ABSTRACT In spatial statistics, the spatially varying coefficient model (SVCM) is widely applied in the analysis and interpolation of non‐stationary spatial data. By incorporating spatially varying coefficients, the model can capture spatial heterogeneity and provide an attractive interpretation of response‐covariate associations.

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation
Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 6512-6531, September 2026.ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.
