Automated Lawn Maintenance: An Agronomic and Operational Review of Turf Health, Biodiversity, and Field Performance

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Preprocessing Procedure for Propagation Measurements on MEO Satellite Links

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a software tool designed for preprocessing data from an experimental campaign aimed at characterizing the tropospheric propagation channel using Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites. The collected data provide critical insights into the channel in scenarios involving continuous variations in azimuth and elevation, along with

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Polarity‐Engineered, Tribo‐Positive Imidazolium‐Mediated Crosslinked 6FDA‐Durene Films for Triboelectric Nanogenerator

Small, EarlyView.
Imidazolium‐mediated crosslinking transforms 6FDA‐durene PI from tribo‐negative to tribo‐positive by modulating the surface electronic structure and charge‐transfer behavior. DFT calculations confirm the experimentally observed polarity transition.

Madrasa Ideologies of English in Bangladesh: Questioning ELT‐Aid and Post‐9/11 De‐Islamization

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract External donors increasingly promote English as a notionally value‐neutral language of socioeconomic advancements in the Muslim South, overlooking local ideological diversities. Furthermore, national and Western forces deploy English as a tool to de‐Islamize madrasas (Islamic educational institutes) in the post‐9/11 world for global peace ...

Toward Silica‐Free Compliance: A Low‐Viscosity Sample Pretreatment Methodology for Crystalline Quartz Quantification in Viscous Pastes

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crystalline quartz, the most common crystalline silica polymorph, is widely found in industrial products. It is of high regulatory relevance, because its fine fraction, a form of respirable crystalline silica, is classified as an occupational carcinogen, with product‐content thresholds (e.g., 0.1% (w/w) in the European Union) and stringent ...
