Fermi Surface Structure Revealed by Quantum Oscillations in Half‐Heusler Semimetal LuAuSn

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fermi surface structure in the half‐Heusler semimetallic compound LuAuSn was systematically investigated using quantum oscillation studies of high‐quality single crystals and first‐principles calculations. Clear bulk quantum oscillation signals were observed for multiple complementary physical properties, including magnetization, Hall ...

When do firms learn by hiring? How complexity moderates the value of new knowledge

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Organizations often hire employees hoping to acquire new knowledge. While the literature has paid considerable attention to the role of the characteristics of the source of knowledge, the recipient firm, and the knowledge being transferred, it has largely overlooked those of the knowledge being replaced.

Cretaceous lacewing larvae with binocular vision demonstrate the convergent evolution of sophisticated simple eyes

Insect Science, EarlyView.
We report three ca. 100 million‐year‐old lacewing larvae with extraordinarily large stemmata. One of them additionally has a very wide head, which represents a previously unknown morphology. The arrangement of the stemmata indicates stereoscopic vision in these predatory larvae.

Potential Correlation Between Bombus lantschouensis Thoracic Morphology and Flight Behavior

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Potential correlation between Bombus lantschouensis thoracic morphology and flight behavior. ABSTRACT Remarkably little modern work has investigated the thoracic structures of insects and their relationship to flight locomotion. Most studies focus exclusively on either morphology or flight kinematics.

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible

Boreas, EarlyView.
Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

Resilience of riparian spiders to floods: evidence from a mesocosm study

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Mesocosm experiment to assess the impact of flood duration on flood‐naïve riparian spider communities. In May, spider richness decreased with flood duration, while in June, flood duration increased abundance, richness and promoted wetland specialists. Flood‐naïve riparian spiders unexpectedly appear highly resilient to flooding.

Forest type influence on Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Responses to forest type depended on the developmental stage of dipterans. Bract traits and forest type influenced larval abundance, but forest type had no impact on adult alpha and beta diversity. Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks showed a nested pattern for both forest types.

Women's Migration to Cities and Their Multifaceted Transformation

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the economic, social and individual dimensions of empowerment among rural–urban migrant women in Sindh, Pakistan. It explores how migration serves as a catalyst for change, enabling women to shed stifling social norms, achieve financial autonomy and improve their social status. This qualitative research draws on 10 in‐depth

Hypoxic Burden in Children With Sleep‐Disordered Breathing: Determinants and Correlates

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypoxic burden (HB) is an emerging metric for quantifying intermittent hypoxia associated with sleep apnea, offering potential advantages over traditional measures such as the apnea‐hypopnea index (AHI). This study evaluated the distribution and clinical significance of non‐respiratory event‐specific HB in children and adolescents with ...
