Building Local Resilience Potential on a Day‐to‐Day Basis: The Influence of Stakeholder Dynamics and Contextual Factors

Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 34, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to clarify how and under what conditions an area builds (or fails to build) its resilience potential on a day‐to‐day basis. In this way, it contributes to a better understanding of the influence of the antecedents of resilience (e.g., undesirable events, capacity of stakeholders).

Microalgae Techno‐Functional Properties in Bread, Cookies, and Pasta Products: A Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are gaining increasing attention in the food industry not only for their nutritional richness but also for their promising techno‐functional properties. Research shows that isolated compounds from microalgae exhibit excellent techno‐functional properties as emulsifiers and thickeners, sometimes outperforming commercial additives ...

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

Targeting Genome Maintenance Defects of Cancers Using Chain‐Terminating Nucleoside Analogs

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 587-596, March 2026.
Nucleoside analogs interfere with DNA replication either by their chain‐terminating properties or by serving as DNA damage on the template. The genome maintenance pathways required to maintain cellular tolerance to each nucleoside analog vary depending on the drug.

Toward a global repository of insect traits (GRIT)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 253-267, March 2026.
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, yet insect conservation is hindered by the absence of a centralised, comprehensive trait database. We propose the GRIT, a FAIR, open‐access platform uniting datasets and collaborators worldwide. GRIT will harness advanced computational tools for trait acquisition and imputation, enabling large‐scale ecological ...

Selectively Cleavable Silicone Elastomers Based on Acetal Cross‐Linkers: Synthesis, Properties, and Study of Chemical Degradation

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 4, Page 890-903, 15 February 2026.
A novel silicone elastomer based on selectively cleavable acetal cross‐linkers incorporated by hydrosilylation was developed. Different acetal cross‐linkers were synthesized and introduced into a silicone formulation of vinyl‐terminated PDMS and tetrakis(dimethylsiloxy)silane using Karstedt's catalyst.
