Mechanisms of Laser Ablation in Liquids and Their Impact on the Efficiency of Nanoparticle Generation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Laser ablation in liquid enables nanoparticle synthesis from diverse materials but remains less energy‐efficient than ablation in air. This study quantifies the absorption‐corrected ablation efficiency and experimentally confirms redeposition as the key loss mechanism using pump‐probe microscopy.

Mean‐Variance Payoff Applied to Stackelberg Games

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyse a Stackelberg duopoly in which the leader faces uncertainty about the intercept demand, while the follower observes the realised demand and decides whether to enter the market after the uncertainty is resolved. The leader evaluates the uncertainty by maximising a mean‐variance utility function that captures its risk aversion.

Influence of dietary intake and eating patterns on reactive hypoglycemic events in patients postesophagectomy: A prospective observational study using continuous glucose monitoring

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Esophagectomy causes anatomical changes that can lead to rapid food transit and reactive hypoglycemia (RH). Patients are advised on eating patterns postesophagectomy to prevent RH, but its true incidence and the impact of dietary recommendations remain under‐researched.

A case of yogurt central line‐associated bloodstream infection in a child with intestinal failure

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Central line‐associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) are a significant cause of morbidity in children with intestinal failure (IF). Probiotic therapy is discouraged in patients with IF because of the increased risk of bacteremia with the probiotic organism.

Effect of population reinforcement method, site, and plant characteristics on early establishment of the rare endemic plant species Minuartia smejkalii

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Many habitat‐specialist plant species have been endangered by fragmentation or destruction of their habitats. Minuartia smejkalii is a serpentinophyte endemic to the Czech Republic. It is highly threatened by recent habitat destruction and fragmentation, calling for effective conservation measures.

Fundraising as Contracting: Why Nonprofits Accept In‐Kind Donations

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In‐kind (nonmonetary) donations are a popular form of philanthropy that have received much less scholarly attention than monetary gifts. This study documents the prevalence of types of in‐kind giving and associated organizational practices, then explores links between the perceptions of nonprofit managers, organizational practices, and ...

Saplings of significance: Nurturing cultural value of new tree plantings through participatory opportunities

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Tree‐planting initiatives are a crucial part of international sustainability and climate action efforts. Yet, many of these initiatives fail to achieve their long‐term sustainability and climate goals. The role of community value is an often‐overlooked factor in promoting the success of new tree plantings.

Enabling effective urban green space stewardship through planning: A qualitative comparative analysis in Southwest England

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Amid increasing urbanisation and biodiversity decline, ‘effective stewardship’ of urban green space (UGS) is a complex but critical nature‐based solution for long‐term environmental, social and economic gain. Combining stewardship and sense‐of‐place frameworks with European nature‐based solutions guidance, we investigate which social and ...

Effect distances of road traffic noise on wildlife behaviour: A soundscape mapping approach using bird habitat selection

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Road traffic noise is a pervasive environmental pollutant that negatively affects wildlife globally. Despite growing research, quantifying the spatial extent of noise impacts remains underdeveloped. Soundscape mapping from social sciences and engineering literature offers a useful yet rarely implemented tool to depict noise impact distances ...
