A scoping review on the mental health of disaster responders for natural disasters in Japan
Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.This scoping review synthesized 55 studies (1997–2025) on the mental health of disaster responders in Japan following natural disasters. Mental health outcomes varied by occupation, with higher prevalence among healthcare workers, local government employees, and nuclear power plant workers, and lower prevalence among firefighters and JGSDF personnel ...

Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear accidents: similarities and differences
HNPS Advances in Nuclear Physics, 2023 During the almost seven decades of use of nuclear fission for electric energy production two major nuclear accidents took place, i.e., the 1986 Chernobyl accident and the 2011 Fukushima one. They were caused by reactor power-surge and loss-of-coolant, respectively. Both accidents occurred during hot power reactor shutdown and had identical root causes,

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.Sedimentary ancient DNA study revealed 138 years of hidden microsporidian (unicellular eukaryotic parasite) diversity and host–parasite dynamics in a freshwater lake. A major community shift in the 2000s, linked to anthropogenic pressures, shows how paleogenomics reveals the diversity and long‐term ecological trajectories of these previously overlooked
