Leveraging urban greenspaces to bolster regional conservation priorities

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This article demonstrates that urban greenspaces currently excluded from the San Francisco Bay Area's regional conservation plan offer significant, measurable conservation value. We found these overlooked areas host vital biodiversity and critically improve habitat connectivity, highlighting that incorporating urban greenspaces will be key in meeting ...

A research on destress mechanism of underlying roadway for gas outburst prevention in deep, low‐permeability coal seam

Energy Science & Engineering
Gas outbursts pose a significant threat in the mining of deep low‐permeability coal seams. As mining depth increases, there is a rise in coal and gas dynamic disasters, rendering the gas outburst prevention technology from shallow mining areas unsuitable

Refinancing Federal Loans to Support Transportation Infrastructure: Lessons From the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Public Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic exposed critical vulnerabilities in U.S. transportation infrastructure, resulting in widespread project delays, suspensions, and cancellations. In response, borrowers turned to refinancing to mitigate revenue shortfalls and benefit from historically low interest rates. This paper analyzes the surge in refinancing activity

Collaborative control technology and application of support and modification for soft-rock roadway in a kilometer-deep coal mine

Scientific Reports
The soft-rock roadways in kilometer-deep coal mines are often damaged by large deformation and have to be periodically expanded and repaired, which seriously restricts the safe and efficient production of coal mines.

Research on the prevention and manage of rockburst in deep‐seam mining roadways

Energy Science & Engineering
AbstractThis study presents a strategy for preventing and controlling rockbursts in deep and vast seams during the mining operation. We analyzed the main factors influencing rockburst by combining the geological structure of the rock mass with field‐collected microseismic monitoring data.

Smart selective navigator (SSN): enhancing urban winter road maintenance through optimized arc routing with hard turn restrictions

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 3580-3597, September 2026.
Abstract This paper introduces a novel heuristic method, the smart selective navigator (SSN), for addressing arc routing problems (ARPs) with a focus on integrating hard turn restrictions in urban winter operations. Addressing a significant gap in existing ARP methodologies, SSN seamlessly incorporates common side constraints, such as vehicle ...

Politicized Framing of the Future: Encouraging Innovation in Mature Ecosystems in the Face of Asymmetric De Alio Entrants

Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 2894-2926, September 2026.
Abstract Hubs and participants of mature ecosystems increasingly compete with de alio entrants that are hubs of more innovative ecosystems. Prior research shows how these asymmetric de alio entrants frame to win over participants from mature ecosystems and suggests that hubs of these ecosystems should respond by encouraging innovation among ...
