Fraternal Twins: Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Yb11O2(OH)[AsO3]8[As2O5] and Lu6O[AsO3]4[As2O5]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The complex triclinic structure of Yb11O2(OH)[AsO3]8[As2O5] crystallizes in P1 (a = 843.81(6), b = 841.32(6), c = 1236.40(8) pm, α = 76.759(2), β = 71.726(2), γ = 85.347(2)°; Z = 1). The triclinic Lu6O[AsO3]4[As2O5] (P1¯$\overline{1}$; a = 836.72(6), b = 849.45(6), c = 1344.51(9) pm, α = 81.078(2), β = 85.289(2), γ = 86.034(2)°; Z = 2) can also be ...

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...

Frequency-Dependent Scaling Factors to Estimate Multiple Time-Period Global Mass Changes Observed by GRACE/GRACE-FO

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The scaling factor method is commonly used to restore near-true time-variable gravity from gravity recovery and climate experiment/follow-on (GRACE/GRACE-FO).

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Sensitivity study on accuracy and relevant parameters in numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks in prestressed concrete structures and evaluates the key parameters affecting accuracy. A combined approach is followed, involving global sensitivity analysis via the Elementary Effects Method and subsequent model calibration using experimental data from distributed fiber‐

From Nominalisation to Passive in Old Tibetan: Reconstructing Grammatical Meaning in an Extinct Language1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Based on an analysis of the Old Literary Tibetan corpus—a corpus of the oldest documented Tibetic language—the present study provides evidence that literary Tibetan v3 verb stems (commonly termed ‘future’) initially encoded passive voice. New arguments put forward in this article range from Trans‐Himalayan nominal morphology to early Tibetan ...
