Adaptation Potential of Local Water Management Practices to Glacier Loss

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Climate change disproportionately affects mountain river basins, driving cryospheric changes and altering their hydrology. This has detrimental impacts on water resources, accentuating the need for robust adaptation strategies. Traditional engineering approaches can provide buffering capacity but are associated with high costs and limited ...

Unraveling the Evolution of Silicic Volcanism in a Distributed Volcanic Field: Insights From Harrat Khaybar, Western Saudi Arabia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Distributed basaltic volcanic fields commonly host minor but significant silicic magmas, the origin of which remains debated. At Harrat Khaybar (western Saudi Arabia; ca. 1.7 Ma to present), volcanic activity erupted compositions range from alkali olivine basalt to trachyte and comendite.

PolarEyes with enhanced digital imaging, a high‐throughput solution for locating and grading crystals

Journal of Applied Crystallography, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1557-1569, October 2026.
An open‐source program for the calculation and visualization of polarization‐derived properties of crystalline material is described, alongside the integration of a polarizing image sensor into a home‐built high‐throughput imaging setup.The long‐range internal order of crystals enables them to exhibit a well known and long‐exploited phenomenon ...

Resilient communities? Collapse and recovery of a social-ecological system in Arctic Norway

Ecology and Society, 2014
Fisheries-dependent Sami communities in the Norwegian Arctic face major challenges adapting and responding to social-ecological changes. On a local scale, communities and households continually adapt and respond to interacting changes in natural ...

chewR: An Open‐Source R Package for Quantifying Masticatory Performance With Applications in Oral Processing Research

Journal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Masticatory performance is a functional measure of oral physiology that may affect food breakdown and/or eating behavior. Existing methods are labor intensive or require proprietary software; here we describe a new open‐source package, chewR, to measure masticatory performance.

Confinement‐Induced Enhancement of Solid‐State Emission Quantum Yield in Rubrene@MOF Hybrid Materials

Zeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 652, Issue 14, 23 September 2026.
Pore‐size‐controlled nanoconfinement of rubrene within UiO‐66 and UiO‐67 suppresses aggregation‐caused quenching and restores bright solid‐state emission. Geometric exclusion and energetic destabilization prevent parallel stacking, yielding solution‐like absorption and fluorescence quantum yields up to 25%.

Space‐use strategies drive diet composition of Baffin Bay polar bears

Ecosphere
Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) depend on sea ice to hunt their ice‐associated prey. However, climate‐induced sea ice loss is leading to changes in space‐use strategies of polar bears, with bears in some subpopulations spending more time on land or ...

Space use of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) in Davis Strait in relation to sea ice and harp seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus)

Arctic Science
Polar bears (Ursus maritimus Phipps, 1774) rely on seals as their primary prey, yet predator–prey spatial relationships are poorly understood. We examined the spatial relationship between Davis Strait polar bears and harp seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus ...
