Hear Me Out: A Lesson in Civil Discourse

open access: yesJournal of Legal Studies Education, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 7-30, Winter 2026.
Abstract This article describes an innovative and engaging lecture and class exercise designed to teach students how to think critically about issues from different perspectives and communicate effectively with those who disagree with them. The interactive lecture and class exercise introduce a civil discourse framework to encourage constructive ...

Comparison of Soil Mineralogy From EMIT Imaging Spectroscopy and Ground‐Based Measurements in the Deserts of Southern California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The highly variable spatial composition of desert soils remains a major source of uncertainty in estimates of dust radiative forcing. Existing soil mineralogy data sets used in climate models are limited by sparse ground observations and coarse spatial resolution.

Enzymatic Basis for the Oxidative Branch of Aromatic Amino Acid Fermentation Leading to p‐cresol Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 34, 19 June 2026.
In anaerobic bacteria, tyrosine serves as an electron donor in the oxidative Stickland fermentation branch, generating p‐hydroxyphenylacetate, ATP and reduced ferredoxin for decarboxylation into p‐cresol. ABSTRACT The phenolic metabolite p‐cresol is a byproduct of tyrosine fermentation by certain strictly anaerobic bacteria, including the human gut ...

Genomic Variation and Population Structure of Portuguese Native Dog Breeds

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of dogs in Portugal is confirmed by zooarchaeological evidence dating to at least 7600 years ago. The 11 native dog breeds that exist in this territory are therefore the end‐product of a complex evolutionary process. This study characterises the genomic diversity and population structure of 10 native breeds based on whole‐genome ...

Collaborating with transnational families: Learning from the experiences of family caretakers, educators, psychologists, and spiritual leaders in Honduras

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, Volume 77, Issue 3-4, Page 539-553, June 2026.
Abstract This manuscript centers on the experiences of caretakers of minors in Honduran transnational families (TNFs) in which one or both parents emigrated, and of the schoolteachers, professional psychologists, and spiritual leaders working with these families.

Using information theory to select spatial scales for species–habitat responses with camera traps

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 4, June 2026.
Abstract Widespread anthropogenic landscape change, particularly from energy development, has fundamentally reshaped ecosystems, and understanding species responses remains a central ecological challenge. Remote camera traps are widely used to estimate mammal abundance and distribution, but inferring species–habitat relationships from these data is ...

Scale‐Dependent Attraction of Invasive Raccoons to Bait Sites: Behavioural and Proximity Responses in a Post‐Disaster Agricultural Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using cafeteria‐style bait trials and GPS telemetry, we investigated scale‐dependent responses of invasive raccoons to baiting in a post‐nuclear‐disaster agricultural landscape in Fukushima, Japan. Baiting induced strong short‐term and daily‐scale attraction to trap sites but did not restructure long‐term space use, highlighting the need to balance ...

Camera Trap Design Determines Taxa Detected at Carrion Sites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
In this study, we demonstrated that camera trap orientation (i.e., horizontal and vertical) at carrion sites differed in their animal community composition and taxa associations. The vertical camera trap orientation was more likely to detect necrophagous invertebrates, while the horizontal orientation was more likely to detect white‐tailed deer.

Investigating the relationship between antipredator behavior and human disturbance using LiDAR imagery

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The human‐built environment influences the behavior and survival of many species, but most of these studies have been conducted in urban areas. Yet, anthropogenic development may impact species differently across scales, including at the rural level. We examined whether the built environment in a rural area obstructed visibility and influenced
