Livelihoods after resettlement: women's work, collective care, and solidarity in disaster recovery

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2027.
Abstract This paper critically examines livelihood recovery in the peripheral resettlement sites of Chennai, India, following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Despite the implementation of various gender‐inclusive livelihood programmes as a part of disaster recovery, our longitudinal empirical research reveals a persistent gap between formal recovery ...

Genome evolution of Mediterranean olives following DNA repeats diversification

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract The olive tree (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea) is one of the most representative perennial crops of the Mediterranean Basin, yet the genomic processes underlying its domestication and diversification remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated repeatome variation across 20 accessions, including 11 wild oleasters and nine cultivated ...

Bioremediation of Chlorpyrifos Contaminated Soil: Microcosm Investigation and 16S rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 6, December 2026.
This study characterized biofilm‐forming bacterial strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa MD3 and Bacillus toyonensis LD07 immobilized on sugarcane bagasse. This highly porous bio‐product demonstrated exceptional phenotypic plasticity and robust bioremediation efficacy, achieving 99% chlorpyrifos degradation at 4500 ppm.

Shape Analysis Using the Fisher-Rao Riemannian Metric: Unifying Shape Representation and Deformation

open access: yes, 2008
— We show that the Fisher-Rao Riemannian metric is a natural, intrinsic tool for computing shape geodesics. When a parameterized probability density function is used to represent a landmark-based shape, the modes of deformation are automatically ...

Back to Nature or Technology to the Rescue? Climate Managers' Preferences for Investment in Carbon Dioxide Removal

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 7, Page 10329-10348, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Firms are increasingly looking into carbon dioxide removal (CDR), a set of options to take past emissions of greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Often two basic categories of CDR are distinguished: nature‐based solutions, such as planting trees or restoring wetlands, and technology‐based solutions, such as various forms of carbon capture ...

Desiccant‐Mediated Moisture Regulation for Sustainable Wheat Storage: Impacts on Grain Quality, Pest Suppression, and End‐Use Quality

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Desiccant‐mediated moisture regulation effectively controlled wheat moisture while helping preserve grain quality, flour functionality, and chapati texture, indicating its potential as a sustainable approach for reducing storage‐related deterioration and post‐harvest losses. ABSTRACT Grain drying techniques using desiccants are an effective alternative

Fisher-Rao Gradient Flows of Linear Programs and State-Action Natural Policy Gradients [PDF]

open access: yes
Kakade's natural policy gradient method has been studied extensively in the last years showing linear convergence with and without regularization. We study another natural gradient method which is based on the Fisher information matrix of the state ...

Fisher information and Cramér-Rao bound for unknown systematic errors

open access: yes, 2018
In order to understand the lower bound of achievable measurement uncertainties, the Cramér-Rao inequality is known to be an utmost useful tool. However, the calculation of the Cramér-Rao bound requires a known probability density function that describes ...

Double‐bowtie filter design for pediatric spectral CT imaging: A fan beam simulation study

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Background Despite concerns about radiation dose in pediatric patients, computed tomography (CT) remains a first‐line imaging modality for children. Spectral CT provides additional diagnostic information that benefits pediatric imaging. However, most existing spectral CT systems are primarily optimized for adult patients.
