An evaluation of the N2O emission reduction potential of enhanced efficiency nitrogen fertilizers and application timing in a semi‐arid cereal cropping system

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Efforts to cut fertilizer‐related nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions require sustainable nitrogen (N) management that maintains crop productivity while reducing emissions. Technologies such as enhanced efficiency N fertilizers (EENFs) have potential to support best management practices by improving N use efficiency and lowering N2O emissions.

Leadership and the Virtue of Humanity: Conceptual Clarity, Systematic Review, and Future Research Agenda

Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 3780-3814, September 2026.
Abstract Humanity – the virtue enabling meaningful human connection – is vital to the leadership we need to survive our polycrisis context. As a prerequisite to sustainable human community, the virtue of humanity is considered universal. It has been claimed as a ‘higher‐order virtue’, comprised of and enacted by – but irreducible to – a suite of ‘lower‐

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 248-257, August 2026.
This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.
