A Sensitivity Analysis Workflow for Power Series Compounded Lifetime Models: Evidence From Weibull Power Series Fits

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 3606-3619, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a practical procedure to quantify the time varying influence of parameters on hazard functions for power series compounded lifetime models. The procedure combines likelihood based fitting with a two stage sensitivity analysis and applies to a range of baselines and compounding laws.

Assessment of current colostrum feeding practices and passive transfer of immunity in dairy herds in Great Britain: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesVeterinary Record, Volume 199, Issue 6, Page e262-e271, 19/26 September 2026.
Abstract Background Updated targets for measuring transfer of passive immunity (TPI) at the herd level have been suggested, but the current performance of dairy herds in Great Britain is unknown. Methods A cross‐sectional study was performed. Serum total protein (STP) data collected between October 2022 and October 2023 by 21 veterinary practices were ...

Modeling GHG Emissions Across Selected South Asian Countries Using a Unit Log‐Log Quantile Mixed Model

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in South Asian countries by analyzing both their proportion relative to global emissions and total emissions, along with key country‐level determinants. To address the bounded (0‐1) and correlated nature of the GHG proportion, this study proposes a new Bayesian Unit Log‐Log Quantile Mixed ...

From the sea to DNA barcode: Optimized preservation method for gelatinous zooplankton integrative taxonomy

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Large‐scale nuclear and plastid phylogenomic analyses inform an updated Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification: APG V

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 845-874, September 2026.
This revision of the APG classification considers the extensive recent analyses of hundreds of nuclear and plastid genes for many angiosperm species. Although previous versions of the APG classification were largely based on uniparentally inherited markers (plastid DNA, largely maternally inherited), there has emerged since APG IV extensive evidence of

Advanced Experiment Design Strategies for Drug Development

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
Wang et al. analyze 592 drug development studies published between 2020 and 2024 that applied design of experiments methodologies. The review surveys both classical and emerging approaches—including Bayesian optimization and active learning—and identifies a critical gap between advanced experimental strategies and their practical adoption in ...

Diversity Under Pressure: Long‐Term Genetic Decline in California's Central Valley Chinook Salmon ESA Listed Runs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Chinook salmon in the Central Valley of California have notable intraspecific diversity because it is the only place where four distinct migration timings (Winter, Spring, Fall, Late‐fall) co‐occur. The Winter run is listed as Endangered and the Spring run is listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act. To quantify temporal changes in genetic

Inference and Optimal Design on Partially Accelerated Life Tests for the Power Half-Logistic Distribution Under Adaptive Type II Progressive Censoring

open access: yesMathematics
This study explores accelerated life tests to examine the durability of highly reliable products. These tests involve applying higher stress levels, such as increased temperature, voltage, or pressure, that cause early failures.

Stayin' alive: Strategies to reduce predation on target species are context dependent

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Restoration and conservation efforts often aim to reduce predation, particularly by reducing interactions with nonnative predators in heavily disturbed and invaded ecosystems. For Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, a highly valued but declining fishery, potentially useful freshwater rearing habitat restoration strategies may include ...
