Observational Characteristics and Meteorological Drivers of Inferior Mirages in Kumtag Desert, China

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Inferior mirages occur on 98.9% of days each year in the Kumtag Desert, Xinjiang, China. Using real‐time camera monitoring mirage images and local meteorological data, we classified inferior mirages into three intensity grades and analyzed their observational characteristics and meteorological drivers.

Mosquito population dynamics are shaped by interactions among larval density, temperature, and relative humidity

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Understanding how variation in key abiotic and biotic factors interact at ecologically relevant spatial scales is crucial for predicting population dynamics, distributions, and abundances. This is especially true for vectors that transmit human pathogens.

Protective Effects of Chia Seeds and Vitamin E Against Benzo[a]Pyrene‐Induced Toxicity in Male Mice: A Comparison of co‐Administration and Pre‐Treatment Strategies

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon found in tobacco smoke and grilled foods, induces DNA damage, oxidative stress, liver toxicity, and lipid metabolism disturbances. This study investigated the protective effects of chia seeds (10%, 20%, and 30% in the diet) and vitamin E (250 mg/kg) against BaP‐induced toxicity (20 mg/kg) in male ...

Correlation analysis of creep properties at low temperature between BF reinforced BRA modified asphalt and its mixture

Case Studies in Construction Materials
To better understand the low-temperature creep properties of basalt fibre (BF)-reinforced Buton rock asphalt (BRA)-modified asphalt mixture, a rheological test on an asphalt bending beam and a creep test on an asphalt mixture bending beam were performed ...

Musculoskeletal (Mal)adaptations in Response to a > 30 000‐km Running Challenge

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ultra‐endurance sports are increasingly popular, yet the long‐term physiological consequences of sustained extreme training loads remain poorly understood. In particular, the effects of prolonged ultra‐endurance exercise on skeletal muscle structure, function and molecular remodelling are largely unknown.
