DEpiABS: Differentiable Epidemic Agent-Based Simulator

Proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the limitations of existing epidemic simulation tools. These tools provide information that guides non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), yet many struggle to capture complex dynamics while remaining computationally practical and interpretable. We introduce DEpiABS, a scalable, differentiable agent-based model (DABM)

An Updated Ecology of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) at Sea

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon have had a key role in European and North American oceans and human societies. Salmon are exploited and observed in rivers and along coasts, but there has always been great interest in knowing where salmon are going when they are at sea.

Correlative optical, electron, and electrochemical microscopy assessment of localised sulphide reactivity in concrete aggregates

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron‐sulphide‐bearing aggregates can compromise concrete durability when reactive sulphide phases, particularly pyrrhotite (Fe1–xS), oxidise and contribute to internal sulphate attack, cracking, and premature deterioration. Existing aggregate assessment methods, including bulk sulphur measurements, petrographic examination, oxygen consumption ...

Individual Differences in the Effects of Life Events on Personality Trait Change

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To date, effects of life events on personality trait change have been unsystematic, tenuous, and difficult to replicate. We focus on individual differences in change processes following life events, which have been neglected in previous studies.

Networked Regional Resilience: Diffusion of Risk and Adaptation Across Interconnected Regions

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regions face not only direct exposure to economic and physical shocks but also indirect consequences of actions in interconnected regions. This paper examines how socio‐spatial networks shape regional resilience to contagious shocks through dynamic feedback between risk diffusion and adaptation diffusion.

Harnessing Systems Science to Strengthen Community‐Based Childhood Obesity Prevention: An Overview of the Literature

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Addressing the obesity epidemic requires understanding the complex and multilevel dynamics that shape it. Systems science can help researchers and practitioners move beyond linear causal logic. This overview identifies empirical studies using explicit systems science methods or broader systems‐informed approaches to design ...
