Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Rampage school shootings, where students go to their own school to randomly kill classmates, teachers, friends, and strangers, are among the most drastic types of human behavior. While research increasingly points to interaction dynamics as being key for the emergence of crime and violence, scholars have not yet systematically studied interaction ...

Rethinking Face‐to‐Face Interaction: Lessons from Studies of “Autistic Sociality”
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Face‐to‐face interaction is a foundational concept in microsociology. This article surveys the social experiences of autistic people, who are commonly known for having a strained relationship with interactions face to face. By interpretively reviewing and synthesizing the broader literature on “autistic sociality,” the article provides a nuanced ...

DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Microplastic Detectability Investigation in Soils Using X‐Ray Microtomography
X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT X‐ray microtomography (microCT) is a promising tool for investigating microplastic (MP) contamination in soils, offering non‐destructive 3D visualization and quantitative analysis of particles embedded in complex matrices. This study evaluated its applicability by mixing plastic fragments (PET, PEHD, PS, and PP) with humus‐rich and sandy soils

Portable X‐Ray Fluorescence in the Assessment of Zinc Along Grizzly Bear Hair
X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As a biomarker of past uptake of zinc, hair presents an interesting option since its growth can provide a stored record over time. This study investigates the distribution of zinc in hairs gathered from a series of grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis).

PM2.5 Chemical Composition and Geographic Origin of Air Masses in Mabopane, South Africa
X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Air pollution is a major global threat to health. The study aimed to analyze the chemical composition of PM2.5 in Mabopane, South Africa, and to identify the contribution of transported particulate pollution sources using backward air transport cluster analysis.

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Thermoplastic composite pipes (TCPs) have potential applications in offshore oil and gas industries because of their strength, lack of corrosion, and flexibility. Designed for fluid transportation in high‐pressure and high‐temperature environments, manufacturing defects and operational loads can compromise their performance.

Spectromicroscopy Analysis of Chicken Egg Shells
X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chicken egg shells, taken from farm and backyard eggs of different suppliers from different regions in Brazil were collected for chemical/structural analysis, in order to try to find if there is a relation between egg shells composition and the type of production (farm or backyard), the egg shell color and the region of production.
