Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Accurate measurements of phytoplankton net primary production (NPP) and calcification are essential for quantifying marine carbon cycling, yet in situ calcification rates remain poorly constrained. We compared 13C‐ and 14C‐based tracer methods for NPP in laboratory cultures of the diatom Chaetoceros tenuissimus and the coccolithophore ...

Automatization of multistep sample preparation for microplastics monitoring in aquatic environments
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Microplastics (MP) have been found in every environmental compartment in urban and remote areas. Although their ubiquity is widely recognized, the lack of harmonized protocols for sampling, sample preparation, and particle identification/quantification hinders comparability among studies.

Quantifying coastal ocean anthropogenic carbon changes and their uncertainties
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Despite recent progress in quantifying anthropogenic carbon (Canth) in global oceans, coastal regions remain understudied due to methodological and observational challenges. Here, we develop and generalize a Regional rEgression–based Coastal Anthropogenic carbon estimation algorithm (RECA) designed specifically for coastal environments ...

Property Rights Entrepreneurship: The Drive for Product, Asset, and Resource Excludability
Managerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Property rights are foundational to market economies, and entrepreneurial activity depends heavily on the excludability afforded by property rights. Yet, the role of entrepreneurs in shaping the evolution of property rights has been so thoroughly taken for granted that it often vanishes from analyses.

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Classical Zero Vibration (ZV) and Zero Vibration and Derivative (ZVD) input shapers are designed around a fixed nominal natural frequency and cannot accommodate the time‐varying dynamics introduced when an overhead crane simultaneously travels and hoists a payload.
