Adding Realism to Theories of Taxpayer Compliance
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Explaining why people pay taxes has not been a central focus in the many important contributions of Jim Cox. Even so, I argue here that his work has greatly affected the way that we think about taxpayer compliance, by adding both directly and indirectly much needed realism to the theories and the applications of compliance. These contributions

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the shear capacity behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams without stirrups incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). An extensive database comprising 269 experimental data points from 40 journal articles published between 2001 and 2025 was compiled, excluding specimens with recycled fine aggregate or fiber ...

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Rectal examination is a routine procedure in bovine reproductive management, but its physiological impact may vary depending on the cow's age and parity. Stress responses during such procedures can negatively affect animal welfare and compliance, especially in inexperienced animals.

The UK Clean Air Act at 70: An interdisciplinary analysis of historical air quality change
Weather, EarlyView.2026 marks the 70th anniversary of the first UK Clean Air Act, a pivotal moment for air quality in modern British history. Previous narratives on this legislation have largely centred on pollution in London and monodisciplinary perspectives. This article integrates historical research with reconstructed estimates of PM2.5 concentrations to spotlight ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.While higher temperatures are generally expected to increase amphibian growth, our experiments with captive‐reared Eastern Hellbenders found no evidence that growth increased at a rearing temperature of 21°C relative to 16°C. As Eastern Hellbender reintroduction efforts move forward, a focus on other conditions, such as density or diet, might be more ...

Effects of Density and Food Availability on the Growth of Captive‐Reared Eastern Hellbenders
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Our experiments demonstrate that food is the major factor limiting captive‐reared Hellbender growth and that increasing rearing density to the tested levels does not negatively impact growth. Implementing these changes may result in larger, more robust Hellbenders and increase the success of reintroduction programs.

Life history attributes influencing metabolic variation in an estuarine fish
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Considering that energy availability and oxygen transport potential are limited in supplying metabolic requirements, all animals face trade‐offs between competing metabolic demands.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The biogeography of ectotherms is greatly influenced by their thermal tolerance, which is expected to be tightly coupled to aerobic performance. However, preferred temperatures of ectotherms often deviate substantially from aerobic performance optima. This suggests that
