Artificial Shelters as a Monitoring and Conservation Tool for Terrestrial Breeding Frogs

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Artificial concrete and wooden shelters were tested as low‐impact tools for monitoring a cryptic terrestrial‐breeding frog, Austrochaperina robusta, in the Australian Wet Tropics. Frogs overwhelmingly preferred concrete shelters, which provided stronger thermal buffering, supported higher occupancy across seasons, and were the only shelters used for ...

Application of RMR89–NATM Rock Mass Classification for Tunnel Design: A Case Study From Bilaspur, Himachal Pradesh, India

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
The Bilaspur region lies in a highly seismic zone, requiring special attention for infrastructure development like tunnel construction. Rock strength in the area is low, posing challenges for stable tunnel design. RMR values range from 21 to 30, categorizing the rock mass as Poor, requiring robust support measures.

Critical Review on the Molecular Behavior of Surfactants at the Oil–Water Interface During Oil Displacement

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 1626-1662, March 2026.
This review systematically explores the molecular behavior of diverse surfactants (anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric) at the oil–water interface through molecular dynamics simulations. It highlights their roles in reducing interfacial tension, altering interfacial structure, and enhancing oil recovery efficiency.

Applications of a Novel Wireless System for Real‐Time Atmospheric Corrosion Monitoring

Materials and Corrosion, Volume 77, Issue 3, Page 398-414, March 2026.
Developed monitoring system is a powerful tool for real‐time atmospheric corrosion monitoring. Humidity plays a critical role in the corrosion process. Limiting environmental parameters inducing maximum corrosion vary depending on the pollutants present. A monitoring system can be used in a wide range of scientific and practical applications.

A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part I Theory

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Pattern formation in geological materials is commonly described using analogies to Turing‐type reaction–diffusion systems, yet a unifying thermodynamic explanation remains elusive. Here we develop a multiscale, thermodynamically consistent framework for pattern‐forming instabilities in porous media undergoing coupled thermo–hydro–mechanical ...
