Biogeography and diversification patterns in the Irano‐Turanian biodiversity hotspots inferred from a molecular phylogeny of the subendemic Iris subgenus Scorpiris (Iridaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The Irano‐Turanian Floristic Region harbors a rich flora, but our understanding of the development of this diversity is limited by a lack of data on phylogenetic relationships and biogeographic patterns of endemic and more widespread plants. Hypotheses of in situ diversification versus allopatric diversification were tested using Iris subgen. Scorpiris,

Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.

Being wronged and being right: Meaningful Indigenous‐Māori discourses for enhancing environmental restoration

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Indigenous participation in environmental management is essential for achieving just and effective ecological outcomes. This study investigates the positive discourses that support the integration of Te Ao Māori (the Māori world view) in environmental restoration practice in Aotearoa New Zealand. We introduce Kaupapa Māori Discourse Analysis—a

Artificial Intelligence as an Add‐On Instrument in Fetal Ultrasound; Sonographers' and Obstetricians' Expectations

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Artificial intelligence applications (AIA) in fetal ultrasound are rapidly evolving, yet their integration into routine clinical practice remains limited. This study explores the attitudes, expectations and concerns of obstetric sonographers and gynecologists regarding AIA as a diagnostic aid during fetal anomaly scans.

Conjugated Polymers Engineered for Flexible/Stretchable Electronics

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This review highlights glass transition temperature (Tg) as the central parameter linking molecular structure to device performance in conjugated polymers. By tuning backbone rigidity, side‐chain architecture, and dynamic bonding, Tg governs the balance between π–π stacking–enabled charge transport and mechanical compliance.

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...
