TOWARDS A DEGROWTH CRITIQUE OF AEROMOBILITIES: An Urban Political Ecology Perspective on the Airport Expansion Resistance in Barcelona

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Aeromobilities—socio‐technical systems that lock in dependence on fossil fuel‐based mobilities—contribute substantially to climate change and uneven geographies. They represent paradigmatic capitalism‐driven forms of metabolism, permeated by logics of efficiency and growth. While existing literature has examined resistance to airport expansion,

Field‐level crop choice responses to weather‐induced yield shocks in the US Corn Belt

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract As climate change increases the frequency and severity of extreme heat events, farmers are expected to face greater variability in crop yields. Using 10 million field‐level observations, this study examines how farmers in the US Corn Belt adjust corn–soybean rotation decisions in response to yield shocks largely driven by weather fluctuations.

Primary reflector for solar energy collection systems [PDF]

, 1978
A fixed, linear, ground-based primary reflector is disclosed which has an extended curved sawtooth-contoured surface covered with a metalized polymeric reflecting material. The device reflects solar energy to a movably supported collector that is kept at

Intensifying translocal precarity: The impact of COVID‐19 on smallholder farmers' commodity production and social reproduction in Cambodia

Area, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Our paper argues that COVID‐19 deepened the translocal precarity of smallholder households, who already had to struggle with volatile commodity production and uncertain labour migration. Through the lens of translocal precarity, it reveals how the pandemic played out within a broader conjuncture of agrarian transformation, defined by ...

The Relevance of Sustainability and the Climate Crisis to the Nursing Profession and Nursing Education: A Literature Review

Journal of Nursing Scholarship, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The climate crisis impacts global health and is exacerbated by the healthcare sector's emissions. Nurses, as the largest professional group, are key to promoting climate‐resilient, low‐carbon health systems. Integrating climate change and sustainable development into nursing education is crucial, yet gaps remain in understanding ...

Three‐dimensional morphological analysis of Chang'e‐5 lunar soil using deep learning‐automated segmentation on computed tomography scans

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Grain morphology is a fundamental characteristic of lunar soil that influences its mechanical properties, sintering behavior, and in situ resource utilization. However, traditional two‐dimensional imaging methods are time‐consuming and lack full three‐dimensional (3D) structural information. This study presents an automated deep learning‐based

Mapping the density of giant trees in the Amazon

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tall trees (height ≥ 60 m) are keystone elements of tropical forests, strongly influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and ecosystem resilience. Yet, their density and spatial distribution remain poorly quantified, especially in remote Amazonian regions, limiting our understanding of their ecological roles and contribution to forest–climate ...

Genetic variants linked to type 2 diabetes in CDKN1B and TCF7L2 influence survival outcomes in metastatic colorectal cancer

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 157, Issue 9, Page 1853-1863, 1 November 2025.
What's new? Multiple genetic polymorphisms characteristic of type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been associated with unfavorable prognostic outcomes in individuals with both T2D and metastatic colorectal cancer. This study evaluated the impact of T2D genetic polymorphisms on metastatic colon cancer prognosis in a cohort of non‐diabetic patients.
