Art Adds Value to Ecological Field Courses: A Multi‐Year Case Study in Higher Education

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents Earth Projects, an interdisciplinary, place‐based field course that merges ecology and ecological art (eco‐art) to foster deeper engagement with environmental learning. Pre‐ and post‐survey comparisons show that incorporating eco‐art can strengthen students' emotional connections to their identities, disciplines, and place.

A Breath of Fresh Air: A Novel Passive Airborne eDNA Approach for Scalable Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study introduces the Nutshell eDNA sampler, an inexpensive, reusable passive device for collecting environmental DNA from air to monitor terrestrial biodiversity. Tested at the Rotterdam Zoo, it detected numerous species and complimented active samplers in identifying zoo animals, continuing to accumulate DNA over longer sampling times and ...

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Consumers' Understanding of Energy Labels: Perception of Eco‐Design With Scale Range and Color‐Coding

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 934-952, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Energy labels help consumers understand the environmental impact of products. This drives consumer behavior. Knowing how label features are perceived can thus have important implications for design, policy, and management. Energy labels contain different design features that convey information about the range of available energy classes.

Nanoplastics in Depolymerization Products from Hydrolysis of Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate) in the Solid State

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 8, 17 April 2026.
Hydrolysis of PET in the solid generates nanoparticles, but thermal signatures of PET were only observed for hydrolysis at 150°C, while oligomers appeared to dominate the non‐monomeric products from hydrolysis at higher temperatures. ABSTRACT Circularity in plastic waste management through depolymerization to monomer is a promising route to address ...

An efficient method for evaluating the lead equivalence of x‐ray radiation protective equipment using an analytical spectrum model

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Background X‐ray radiation protective equipment is essential for ensuring the safety of medical staff. It is therefore important to verify its effectiveness, including confirming the specified lead equivalence (Pbeq${\rm Pb}_{\rm eq}$), as it is a recognized standard protective value.

Remembering Courtney Cazden, 1925–2025

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 61, Issue 2, April/May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Here we remember and honor Courtney B. Cazden (1925–2025), whose scholarship, mentorship, and moral clarity profoundly shaped the study of language, literacy, and learning. Drawing on our shared experiences as colleagues, collaborators, students, and friends, we reflect on Courtney's enduring contributions to classroom discourse analysis ...
