Evaluating Direct and Indirect Methods for Estimating Fallow Deer (Dama dama) Density Across Habitats in Rhodes Island, Greece: Implications for Management

open access: yesLand
The fallow deer (Dama dama) population on the island of Rhodes, Greece, constitutes one of the oldest extant free-ranging populations of this species. Robust population estimates are crucial for effective conservation and management.

Food Security Strategy, Macroeconomic Dynamics and Food Import Sensitivity in Qatar

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Qatar has limited agricultural land and water resources and therefore remains highly dependent on food imports. This structural dependency makes Qatar vulnerable to external shocks such as the recent Gulf crisis, threatening food security and disrupting global supply chains. In response to previous shocks, Qatar started implementing a National

Hydration Behavior of Tricalcium Silicate in Seawater Relevant Salt Systems: A Hybrid Study with the Aid of Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The hydration behavior of C3S in seawater‐relevant solutions is studied based on experiments, boundary nucleation and growth (BNG) modeling, and machine learning. The main ions included in seawater modify hydration mechanisms, with MgCl2 showing the strongest acceleration effect at the same concentration.

Benchmarking Data‐Driven Control of Octopus‐Inspired Soft Arms in Underwater Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Underwater soft robots present safe, compliant interaction, yet reproducible control remains scarce. This work presents an open benchmark for octopus‐inspired arms: a smooth, velocity‐diverse data‐collection scheme produces a compact dataset to train a vanilla policy.
