extBatchMarking: An R package for hidden Markov models for extended batch data

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a new R package for extended batch‐mark methods. Extended batch marking is a valuable and efficient technique for estimating population sizes and survival probabilities of wild animals. It assigns the same identifier to a group of animals simultaneously, allowing researchers to track their survival over time.

Towards Sustainable Construction: Hybrid Prediction Modeling for Compressive Strength of Rice Husk Ash Concrete

Designs
Rice husk ash (RHA) offers an eco-friendly way to improve concrete. Owing to the complex mix design of RHA concrete, accurately predicting its strength remains a challenge. This study addresses this need by compiling a dataset of 291 compressive strength

DNA barcoding of more than one million insect specimens indicates that at least one third of California's insect biodiversity remains undiscovered

Ecography, EarlyView.
Insects are the most diverse terrestrial organisms, yet they are underrepresented in large‐scale conservation assessments. To address this gap, the California Insect Barcoding Initiative is developing a publicly accessible, statewide DNA‐barcode reference library for California insects to support scalable surveys, establish baseline biodiversity ...

Mycotoxin management in the cereal supply chain: Advanced detection, detoxification, and smart packaging strategies

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Mycotoxins remain a persistent threat to the safety and quality of cereal grains and other agricultural products, and their impact on human health continues to raise global concerns. In many situations, the practices traditionally used to control these toxins are no longer sufficiently effective. They can be costly, difficult to implement on a

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...
