Addressing Favorable and Challenging Flexible Plastic Packaging Waste Flows: A Material Flow Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Manufacturing and Processing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The majority of post‐consumer flexible plastic packaging (FPP) in the United States ends up in landfills and incinerators. This represents a significant material loss because FPP, also referred to as plastic films or foils, comprises up to half of all plastic packaging.

BRE‐X Emissions Database for End‐of‐Life Scenarios of Selective Building Construction Materials to Enable Circular Economy in Construction

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Manufacturing and Processing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the United States, construction and demolition debris predominately end up in landfills with minimal end‐of‐life Re‐X (recover, recycle, reuse, etc.) scenarios, resulting in large environmental impacts and lost opportunities for material recovery.

Applying interpretable machine learning to assess intraspecific trait divergence under landscape‐scale population differentiation

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Here we demonstrate the application of interpretable machine learning methods to investigate intraspecific functional trait divergence using diverse genotypes of the wide‐ranging sunflower Helianthus annuus occupying populations across two contrasting ecoregions—the Great Plains versus the North American Deserts.

Comparing cranial biomechanics between Barbourofelis fricki and Smilodon fatalis: Is there a universal killing‐bite among saber‐toothed predators?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

Snake and Moon ‘Right Way Marriage’ Stories on Stone and Bark

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In northwest Australia, boab trees hold significant cultural values for First Nations people. Their leaves, bark, roots and nuts are important as traditional resources for food, medicine, fibre, water and shade and serve as reference points in the landscape. Some of the tree trunks are inscribed with images and symbols which tell of events and
