A Temporally Consistent Spatial Gradient in Methane Ebullition From a Eutrophic Lake
Abstract Gas bubble emission (ebullition) from lake sediment is a prominent source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the atmosphere, but the stochastic nature of bubble release and thus high variability in space and time makes the estimation of lake CH4 ebullition challenging.

Optimising Wave Energy Plant Location Through Neutrosophic Multi‐Criteria Group Decision‐Making
ABSTRACT The global shift towards sustainable energy has intensified research into renewable sources, particularly wave energy. Pakistan, with its long coastline, holds significant potential for wave energy development. However, identifying optimal locations for wave energy plants involves evaluating complex, multi‐faceted criteria.

Nuclear disasters and displacement
The lessons of the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011 seem to be the same as those from Chernobyl 25 years earlier, despite the different political settings. Apparently not much had been learned.

Potential of Soils Natural Sorbents for Environmental Decontamination From 137Cs
ABSTRACT This study addresses the existing research gap concerning the lack of integrated data on the role of in situ soil components in the long‐term fixation of 137Cs under natural, protected, and non‐agricultural conditions. The contamination of ecosystems by radioactive isotopes, particularly 137Cs, represents a considerable environmental hazard ...

Reduced Susceptibility to the Dunning–Kruger Effect in Autistic Employees
ABSTRACT Evidence indicates that autistic individuals are less susceptible to social influence and cognitive biases than non‐autistic individuals. However, no studies have been conducted on the Dunning–Kruger effect (DKE) in autism. The DKE is a cognitive bias in which people with limited expertise in a specific domain overestimate their abilities. The

Uranium and Neptunium Accumulation by the Byssus of Mytilus galloprovincialis
Investigation of uranyl(VI) and neptunyl(V) uptake in mussel's byssus by combining in vivo bioaccumulation with ex vivo isotherms. Data highlight the role of DOPA‐rich mfp proteins in binding both actinyl cations and partial Np(V) reduction. Such data link molecular interactions to radionuclide uptake in the framework of marine radioecology.
