Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Affordances, dread, and online fraud: Exploring and advancing social learning theory in online contexts

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate how the affordances of an online context shape the processes of social learning. Using a dataset of more than 11,000 posts from the fraud subdread on the dark web forum Dread, we examine how affordances of platform governance, connectivity, anonymity, invisibility, asynchronicity, and limited oversight influence the components ...

Density dependence and habitat selection affect overwintering abundance of monarch butterflies at regional and site scales in California

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We analyzed annual overwintering counts in California to understand monarch population fluctuations. Climate and density‐dependent factors explain 64% of annual variability across groves, with density dependence being the primary driver. Within groves, tree characteristics and microclimate significantly influence monarch habitat selection, with ...

Beyond Privacy Calculus: Understanding Digital Contact Tracing Acceptance Through Surveillance Drift and Agency Theory

Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, Volume 43, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Digital contact tracing (DCT) has emerged as a promising tool for controlling infectious disease outbreaks, yet its adoption has been hampered by widespread privacy concerns. Prior research studies mainly rely on privacy calculus theory. We extend this view by integrating agency theory to explain how delegating sensitive data to government ...

Mapping Slow Mobility Users' Unhealthy Exposure to Air Pollution in London

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Slow mobility, characterized by modes of transportation such as walking and cycling, is often promoted for its health benefits and environmental friendliness. However, users of slow mobility face prolonged and direct exposure to their immediate environment, potentially increasing their susceptibility to air pollution ...

Varying Influence of Menstrual Cycle Phase and Hormonal Contraceptive Use on Resistance Exercise‐Induced Circulating Extracellular Vesicle and Metabolite Signalling

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Resistance exercise augments circulating extracellular vesicle (EV) and metabolite signalling in manners that assist musculoskeletal and systemic adaptations. Women are often underrepresented in exercise research and recent attention has focused on whether hormonal fluctuations during the menstrual cycle and use of hormonal contraception (HC ...

High‐throughput information extraction of printed specimen labels from large‐scale digitization of entomological collections using a semi‐automated pipeline

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 790-804, March 2026.
Abstract Natural history museums curate billions of insect specimens, representing an unparalleled record of biodiversity. Although large‐scale digitization has expanded access to specimen images, extracting label metadata remains a major bottleneck, typically requiring time‐intensive manual transcription.
