Effects of Chemical Surface Treatments on the Structural and Durability Performance of Coffee Husk Reinforced Laterite Blocks

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
The efficacy of combined chemical treatments is clearly shown in this study to greatly improve the structural strength, bonding, and durability of coffee husk‐reinforced laterite blocks. The combined NaOH and silane treatment is the most effective method of improving the strength and water resistance of earthen construction materials.

Effects of natural environmental factors on growth and tuber production of Tacca leontopetaloides (Polynesian arrowroot), an underutilized food crop

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Tacca's productivity in dry tropical zones increases with rainfall and land cover gradients. Phosphorus (P) content in soil is positively correlated with plant aboveground growth traits (total height, leaf area) and tuber weight of the species, whereas potassium (K) is correlated only with tuber weight.

Framing Modern Slavery: Do Stakeholders Talk Past Each Other?

Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, Volume 43, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Modern slavery literature has thus far mostly adopted a downstream perspective, in the sense that researchers investigated corporate actors' responses after the enactment of transparency legislation. The common finding is that corporate disclosure is poor and ineffective, contributing to a failure to eradicate modern slavery.
