“Cold Tropics”: Permafrost Existence and Thickness on Eastern Nevado Coropuna (Southern Peruvian Andes) Revealed by Ground‐Penetrating Radar and Geoelectrical Soundings

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.

Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

Circulant Matrix‐Based Box–Behnken Designs With Economic Run Sizes

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We introduce Circulant Matrix‐Based Box–Behnken Designs (CBBDs), a new class of three‐level, second‐order response surface designs constructed using circulant matrix structures. These designs satisfy an enhanced orthogonal minimally aliased (OMA∗${\rm OMA}^*$) property: they retain the classical OMA property—where main effects are orthogonal ...

Understanding Climate Change Education Practices in Kalimantan Through Exploratory Field Research With Local Voices

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article is based on a study that examines the practices and perspectives of selected educational actors in Kalimantan, Indonesia, on climate change education. The region is highly affected by climate crises and holds global relevance for mitigation due to its tropical forests and peatlands.
