Navigating Academic Integrity in Doctoral Education: A Study of Misconduct in Doctoral Defence Practices in Mongolia

Higher Education Quarterly, Volume 80, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Doctoral defences play a critical role in safeguarding the integrity and credibility of doctoral education. In Mongolia, however, defence practices, administered through centralised committees rooted in Soviet academic traditions, face significant structural, cultural, and ethical challenges.

Decoding Metamorphic Nanodiamonds Formation Through Their Internal Structures

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 226-245, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Metamorphic diamonds offer insights into Earth's evolution, modulating the global carbon cycle through subduction into the mantle and exhumation. However, the formation and internal structure of minute diamonds remain poorly understood. Here, we study the internal structures of diamond‐bearing inclusions from the Eastern Alps using state‐of ...

Synchronisation of Extreme Precipitation and Sea Surface Temperature Events in the Northern Hemisphere: A Complex Network Approach

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 3, 15 March 2026.
Using complex network theory and event synchronisation, we find distinct spatiotemporal structures of extreme precipitation and sea surface temperature events across the Northern Hemisphere. Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...
