Mineworkers' Perspectives on Whole‐Body Vibration Exposures in the Ghanaian Mining Industry

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across most industries, there appears to be greater commitment to occupational safety than to occupational health, largely because safety effects are readily observable, whereas health effects are hard to notice, as they take prolonged exposure to become apparent.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

An Exercise‐Pollution Exposure Index for Assessing Inhaled Heavy Metal Exposure Along Urban Walking Routes

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban walking routes are promoted as health‐supportive environments, yet they may also act as microenvironments of pollutant exposure during physical activity. This study evaluated heavy metal exposure along urban walking routes by integrating road dust metal concentrations, conventional health risk assessment, deposited inhalation dose, and ...

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?

Weather, EarlyView.
Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

Availability bias and responsive movement during ground‐based wildlife surveys revealed by concurrent thermal drone surveys

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Methods to estimate abundance from unmarked populations of animals are widely used because of their efficiency and presumed accuracy. These methods account for imperfect detection by comparing observed data against the assumed distribution of the entire population.

A Novel Single‐Encounter‐Emphasise‐Attention Neural Network for Predictive Maintenance in Urban Infrastructure

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Riyadh Metro represents a significant project in Saudi Arabia, designed to transform urban transportation and reduce traffic congestion within the city. With six metro lines and 85 stations, the network is expected to serve millions of passengers daily, necessitating innovative digitally driven maintenance approaches to ensure reliable ...
