Enabling Under Ice Glider Operations: A Backseat Driver Approach
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Polar Oceans are key locations for forcing global ocean circulation, influencing both global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Due to restricted access to these seasonally and perennially ice‐covered regions, these areas are severely undersampled.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

A Lagrangian Approach to Optimal Randomization
We develop an efficient method for solving non-convex constrained optimization problems that are pervasive in economics. The optimal solution to these problems often involves randomization. We employ a Lagrangian framework and prove that the value of the saddle point characterizing the optimal random solution equals the value of the deterministic dual ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how green and non‐green goods, energy transition, digitalization, economic growth, and population affect the material footprint of G‐7 countries from 1990 to 2023. Using an extended STIRPAT framework, we show that green and non‐green goods increase material footprint, demonstrating the resource intensity associated with

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, transition to renewable energy has emerged as a vital strategy for achieving sustainable development and reducing environmental degradation. Only when backed by a solid institutional and macroeconomic context can economic growth serve as a stimulus for the development of renewable energy.

Vibrational Exfoliation of 2D Materials
Small, EarlyView.Vibrational energy folds, fractures and exfoliates atomically and molecularly thin materials. Combining experimentation and computational methods, this unique vibrational synthesis pathway is revealed. This process overcomes barriers of existing approaches by processing 1000 g/L dispersions without loss in yield.
