Opposing consensus science through scholarly practices: The role of claims maintenance

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how three US‐based communities who oppose consensus science produce and disseminate scholarly‐like artifacts: pro‐life activists, Young Earth Creationists, and Anthropogenic Climate Crisis skeptics. Prior research shows that industry‐ or church‐backed advocacy campaigns often generate claims supported by these communities ...

From disorientation to preparedness: Information practices as scaffolding in acute crises

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This qualitative study examines how adults in Israel enacted information practices during an acute national crisis. Using the information transitions framework, we investigate how concrete practices emerge and evolve across three stages: understanding, negotiating, and resolving. Semi‐structured Zoom interviews with 18 adults were analyzed via

Adverse Childhood Experiences in Autistic and Neurotypical Girls

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic, life‐altering events that occur in childhood with long‐term negative physical and/or mental health outcomes. Previous research, while limited and largely focused on males, suggests children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at higher risk of experiencing ACEs than typically ...

Emerging research directions in nanoparticle‐based foam control for bioprocessing: a bibliometric approach

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Overfoaming remains a critical challenge in industrial bioprocesses, compromising mass transfer, operational stability, and downstream efficiency in bioreactors and wastewater treatment systems. This study provides a bibliometric and scientometric assessment of nanoparticle‐enabled foam control to map technological trends and identify research

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy
