Sherman traps, bucket cameras, eDNA—oh, my: A comparative study of small mammal monitoring methods

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Comparison of Sherman live trapping, bucket camera traps, and airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) for assessing small mammal communities in restored prairies. Bucket cameras detected the highest species richness, live trapping provided the most precise species identifications, and airborne eDNA detected unique taxa.

VISUAL NEGOTIATIONS OF GENTRIFICATION IN TORONTO: Contestation, Politicization and Resistance through Urban Signage

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article engages signage as a medium through which urban stakeholders negotiate the politics of housing redevelopment and gentrification in cities. Focusing on Toronto, we examine housing‐related signage in three neighbourhoods where social mix approaches to redevelopment have ushered in gentrification: Parkdale, Regent Park, and Moss Park.

Effect of different parameters on lateral-torsional buckling behavior of I-girders with circular corrugated webs

Journal of Engineering and Applied Science, 2022
I-girders with circular corrugated webs are considered as a new fabrication technology. The corrugation of the web considerably increases the stiffness of the cross-section to resist shear forces and also increases the out-of-plane stiffness.

The institutional paradox of a substantivist conception of the economy in public policy: Insights from public procurement for solidarity economy in Ecuador

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecuador's 2008 Constitution advanced an ambitious substantive economic vision through Buen Vivir (Good Living), recognizing a plural economy which encompasses private, public and solidarity economy (SE) sectors. This paper aims to analyze public procurement programs in Ecuador, one of the flagship Buen Vivir policies for SE promotion.

Numerical investigation of the cold-formed I-beams bending strength with different web shapes

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
The wide use of cold-formed sections (CFS) in the field of steel constructions, favored by the multiple advantages they offer (lightness, ease of installation, etc.), has led us to reflect on a new process for manufacture of metal beams allowing the ...

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Deep learning and computer vision for image‐based high‐throughput phenotyping of canning quality traits in dry beans

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Canning color retention is a key quality trait in dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) breeding, influencing consumer acceptance and commercial value. Public breeding programs maintain canning quality as a selection trait of importance, but existing color evaluation methods such as visual rating are subjective, while instrument colorimetry is ...
