Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 1807-1820, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

Evaluating the accuracy of the EcoservR toolkit for fine‐resolution habitat mapping

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Accurate habitat maps are essential for monitoring ecological change and supporting nature recovery planning. We evaluate the EcoservR rule‐based habitat mapping toolkit using field survey data from Merseyside and the North York Moors, validating classifications across the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) Phase 1 hierarchy.

Control Node Placement and Structural Controllability of Water Quality Dynamics in Drinking Networks

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Chlorine, the most widely used disinfectant, needs to be adequately distributed in water distribution networks (WDNs) to maintain consistent residual levels and ensure safe water. This is performed through control node injections at the treatment plant and via booster stations distributed across the WDNs.

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
The study identifies the previously unknown transposase ISXoo15 as an antiphytobacterial target. By constructing mutant strains, this enzyme's essential role in regulating bacterial pathogenicity and virulence is revealed. ABSTRACT Current challenges in controlling phytopathogenic bacteria lie in widespread chemical resistance, biosafety concerns, and ...
