Assessing Multidimensional Poverty in the European Union: Insights From SDG 1 and the Benefit of the Doubt Approach

open access: yesThe Manchester School, Volume 94, Issue 3, Page 296-308, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The eradication of poverty remains one of the greatest economic challenges of the 21st century, particularly in light of transformations in labour markets, demographic shifts, and recent crises such as the COVID‐19 pandemic. Sustainable Development Goal 1 (SDG 1) acknowledges the need for broader approaches to measuring and addressing poverty,

Can we repudiate ontology altogether?

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 264-292, June 2026.
Abstract Ontological nihilists repudiate ontology altogether, maintaining that ontological structure is an unnecessary addition to our theorizing. Recent defenses of the view involve a sophisticated combination of highly expressive but ontologically innocent languages combined with a metaphysics of features—non‐objectual, complete but modifiable states

Detection of Leptospira in cane toads (Rhinella jimi) from urban and rural Paraíba, Brazil

open access: yesVeterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 10, Page e461-e470, 16/23 May 2026.
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a significant zoonosis in tropical regions, where poor sanitation and favourable climate aid its spread. Synanthropic animals such as the cane toad (Rhinella jimi), which share environments with both people and wild and domestic animals, may harbour Leptospira and contribute to urban and rural transmission cycles ...

A Review of the Unintended Consequences of Biochar in Various Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Biochar is widely promoted as a sustainable material for applications ranging from soil amendment to energy storage and construction materials. This review critically examines the often‐overlooked and unintended consequences of biochar, including variability in properties, safety risks, and performance limitations.

Impact of Internal Temperature Stabilisation on Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy Based State‐of‐Health Evaluation of Electric Vehicle Battery Modules for Second‐Life Applications

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
Thermal stabilisation of EV battery modules is critical for reliable EIS‐based SOH diagnostics. This study shows that stabilisation of module casing temperature does not ensure thermal equilibrium of internal electrochemical processes, potentially leading to significant errors in selected equivalent circuit model parameters.

Urban–Wild Interface Diversity: A Comprehensive Checklist of Herpetofauna of Guayaquil, Ecuador

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Amphibians and reptiles in Guayaquil comprise multiple taxonomic orders and occur across conservation areas, forest remnants, and urban parks, including several endemic species and numerous taxa with type localities in the city. Although most species are globally classified as Least Concern, discrepancies between global and national threat assessments ...

Repeatability of Rapid Human Cardiac Phosphorus MRSI (31P‐MRSI) Using Concentric Ring Trajectory Readouts at 7 T

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2508-2514, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose PCr/ATP ratio is determined at 7 T typically using Fourier‐transform based magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging sequences (FT‐MRSI). These sequences require acquisition times longer than desirable for inclusion in cardiac clinical trials. Concentric ring trajectory (CRT‐MRSI) has been described as an accelerated alternative k‐space

Block‐in‐Matrix Deformation and Veining in Alpine Subducted Oceanic Metasediments at Blueschist Facies Conditions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract In subduction zones, the locked seismogenic zone is bordered by an upper and a lower transition zone. In these transition zones, deformation is primarily accommodated by an interplay of diffuse viscous deformation within a weak matrix and brittle deformation in stiffer bands and blocks.

Accuracy and Limitations of Tools for Analyzing Meander Migration: Consequences of Bend Dynamics and Analysis Interval

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Channel migration in meandering rivers is commonly quantified by analyzing change over time in positions of river‐channel centerlines extracted from aerial photographs or satellite images. Although several tools have been developed to estimate migration based on centerline changes, the accuracy of these tools has not been rigorously evaluated.

From Purpose to Persistence: How Intentional Introductions by Humans Influence Ecological Niches of Non‐Native Plants

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The intentional or unintentional transport of non‐native plants is key to overcoming geographic barriers. However, it remains unclear whether such introduction pathways associate with overcoming environmental barriers, which is key for successful invasion.
