Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Restoration in drylands is challenging because of harsh climates, requiring creative methods and organisms like biocrusts for restoration of degraded lands. Biocrusts are thin, coherent soil surface layers prevalent in drylands, engineered, and inhabited by communities of organisms including mosses, lichens, and cyanobacteria ...

Geopower, Geos and the Colonisation of Palestine
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While the majority of geographical work on colonialism in Palestine centres on territory and land, this article foregrounds geopower and geos in the making of spatial relations. Three arguments are made over three corresponding sections. The first draws on recent writing on geopower and geos (primarily that by Elizabeth Grosz, Elizabeth ...

Evaluating the accuracy of the EcoservR toolkit for fine‐resolution habitat mapping
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.Accurate habitat maps are essential for monitoring ecological change and supporting nature recovery planning. We evaluate the EcoservR rule‐based habitat mapping toolkit using field survey data from Merseyside and the North York Moors, validating classifications across the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) Phase 1 hierarchy.

An In‐Depth Characterization of Page Fault Handling in Modern Persistent Memory Systems
Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 7, April 2026.ABSTRACT Recent advancements in Persistent Memory (PM) technologies have enabled the integration of such devices directly into the processor's memory hierarchy, allowing them to be accessed via standard load/store instructions. These developments have revived interest in the design and implementation of systems capable of effectively supporting PM.
