How Different Patterns of Policy Attention Drive Policy Diffusion: Evidence From China's River Chief System

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on policy diffusion, the ways in which policy attention influences this process remain underexplored. This study addressed this gap by distinguishing between three types of policy attention—political speeches, policy issuance and field visits—and investigating their differential impacts when delivered by central and ...

Record‐Breaking Easterly Dust Transport From North Africa to the Arctic: An Observational Study

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Mineral dust drives Arctic climate variability, but accurate source attribution remains difficult due to plume mixing from the different regions. Using observations and HYSPLIT modeling, we characterize a record‐breaking trans‐continental dust intrusion (March 13–19, 2013) traversing from North Africa to the Arctic. Distinct from single‐source

Holistic analysis of shoreline change and mudbank dynamics across the Guiana coastline

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.
Annual analysis of shoreline change across the entire Guiana coastline, northern South America, including quantification of the rate and nature of alongshore mudbank migration and cross‐shore mangrove establishment and loss was conducted. Identification of other key coastal landforms contributing to exceptional rates of shoreline change across the ...

Using Participatory System Dynamics Approaches to Improve Community‐Based Oral Healthcare Delivery: A Case Study of the ElderSmile Program

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 1657-1672, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study leveraged system dynamics approaches to improve community‐based oral healthcare delivery via the ElderSmile program. Insights and inferences from focus groups and key informant interviews with older adults and their service providers, respectively, were integral to understanding feedback mechanisms articulated in participatory ...

Analysis of new starting curve and dynamic characteristics of long-distance belt conveyors

open access: yesJixie chuandong
ObjectiveTo address the longitudinal vibration of long-distance belt conveyors during starting, the dynamic equations of the belt conveyor were established based on the analysis of the viscoelastic properties of the conveyor belt. Taking a practical long-

Block Kinematics, Interseismic Coupling and Fault Slip Rates in the Aegean Region From GPS and Earthquake Slip Vector Data: 1. Upper Plate Structures

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We represent the active deformation of the Aegean region with an elastic‐kinematic block model composed of a finite number of rotating crustal blocks whose boundaries coincide with major active structures. A total of 832 GPS velocities and 146 earthquake slip vectors were inverted to provide estimates of block rotations and interseismic ...

Pronounced Spatiotemporal Differences of Compound Flooding Inundation in China's Coastal Cities Under Climate Change

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract China's coastal cities face increasingly severe compound flooding driven by rainfall and sea levels under climate change. However, the spatiotemporal variation patterns of compound inundation across China's coast remain insufficiently assessed.

Dry Cleaning and Post‐Cleaning Strategies in Food Processing Facilities: A Scoping Review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective dry cleaning and post‐cleaning treatments are essential for maintaining food safety in dry‐food processing environments where water use must be minimized. This scoping review mapped and synthesized empirical research on minimal‐water cleaning methods applied to industrial surfaces, focusing on their efficacy against microbial and ...
