Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Opening the Black Box of Nonprofit Reputation and Volunteer Attraction With Supervised Machine Learning

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the aim to explore the potential of machine learning for nonprofit research, this article contrasts traditional linear regression with four contemporary supervised machine learning approaches. Concretely, we predict (1) reputation ratings and (2) the total number of volunteers for 4021 non‐profit organizations in the U.S.

Host plant‐specific volatiles of Beauveria bassiana‐colonized plants initiate trophic plant–aphid–predator cascades

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Endophytic colonization of melon plants by B. bassiana modifies the crop volatile profiles in a genotype‐dependent manner. A predator choice is biased toward endophytically colonized plants infested with aphids revealing a guardian within effect of the fungus of great potential in integrated pest management.
