Atmospheric Deposition of Organic Pollutants: A Comprehensive Review of Sampling and Analytical Methodologies

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Water Level Regulation Regime Shifts Drive Divergent Foraging Habitat Use by Wintering Hooded Cranes (Grus monacha) in Shallow Gate‐controlled Lakes of the Yangtze Floodplain

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study investigates how contrasting hydrological regulation regimes at two gate‐controlled lakes influence the foraging strategies of wintering Hooded Cranes. We demonstrate that while cranes at near‐natural sites follow Optimal Foraging Theory by utilizing high‐accessibility mudflats, those at artificially high‐water sites exhibit an adaptive ...

Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability

Siderite Concretions in Svalbard Lake Sediments Capture 7,000 Years of Extreme Arctic Cold Season Climate Change

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The Arctic warms faster than anywhere else on Earth, and paleoclimate data are key to placing this amplified response in a long‐term context. But most past temperature proxies record growing season conditions, when their biological signal carriers are produced.

Advancing Sustainable Development in Manufacturing: A Strategic Framework for Overcoming Green–Lean Implementation Barriers

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 5320-5343, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Manufacturing's transition to sustainable development depends on integrating green with lean under credible environmental policy and stakeholder engagement. Although benefits are well established, the literature underspecifies implementation barriers and their prioritisation. This study identifies, structures, and prioritises barriers to green–
