Plant‐Derived Treatments for Monogenean Parasites in Farmed Fish: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Monogeneans are among the most problematic ectoparasites in finfish aquaculture. Plant‐derived compounds have been widely explored as therapeutic agents, yet their efficacy and safety have not been quantitatively synthesized across studies. This study provides a meta‐analysis of plant‐based treatments against monogeneans, integrating 453 in ...

Fugitive Junctures: Life‐Seeking, Route‐Finding and the Mobile Ensemble at Kenya's Borders

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract Fugitivity has become an important conceptual frame to understand the illegalised mobilities of contemporary migrants in conjunction with enslaved people's historical lines of flight as spatial praxes to seize their own freedom. Thinking from Kenya, and drawing on research with migrants, border officials, activists, police and smugglers,

Narrating Entanglement Without Dehumanisation in Contemporary Eco‐Fiction

open access: yesFuture Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This essay presents a comparative analysis of two contemporary works of eco‐fiction, Richard Powers's The Overstory (2018) and Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood (2023). Both novels use multiperspective narration in the service of entanglement narratives, forms of storytelling that emphasise the interconnection of human and nonhuman life.

A novel approach for distinguishing noise and information in forest MLS‐point clouds

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1595-1605, May 2026.
Abstract 3D laser scanning is a cornerstone of modern forest and ecological research, allowing detailed insight into forest structures and dynamics. Although point cloud processing and noise management are crucial steps in the exploitation of LiDAR data, traditional denoising methods are usually based on the assumption of a Gaussian noise distribution,

A suitable approach to resource allocation in biosecurity when considering dependent benefits and costs

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1519-1534, May 2026.
Abstract Optimal allocation of resources to the management of biosecurity risk, threatened species conservation or natural hazards such as bushfires is imperative—because program budgets are usually finite and, therefore, constrained. However, effectively dividing resources among management activities to achieve the greatest benefit remains a ...

A Hybrid Machine Learning–Metaheuristic Approach to Solving the Quadratic Multidimensional Knapsack Problem

open access: yesMathematics
The quadratic multidimensional knapsack problem (QMdKP) is a combinatorial optimization problem that involves selecting a subset of items to maximize both linear and quadratic profits without exceeding the capacity constraints across multiple dimensions.

Longitudinal Relations Among Theory of Mind, Advanced Theory of Mind, and Executive Function From Ages Four to Seven

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This longitudinal study examined the developmental relations between first‐order Theory of Mind (ToM), advanced ToM, and executive function (EF) from ages 4 to 7.5. Two‐hundred‐three German children were assessed at ages 4, 5.5, and 7.5 on measures of ToM, EF (working memory, inhibition, cognitive flexibility), general cognition, and language.
