Reduced order models for thermally coupled low Mach flows

open access: yesAdvanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences, 2018
In this paper we present a collection of techniques used to formulate a projection-based reduced order model (ROM) for zero Mach limit thermally coupled Navier–Stokes equations. The formulation derives from a standard proper orthogonal decomposition (POD)

Advancing Water Security in the Tropical and Subtropical Regions: An Integrative Topic Modeling Approach

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Water security in tropical regions faces escalating pressures from climate change, land‐use shifts, and population growth. We conducted a bibliometric review of 1146 peer‐reviewed articles (1964–2023) on tropical water security. Latent Dirichlet Allocation identified 13 thematic topics and their evolution. Publications rose sharply after 2012,

Effect of a Spray Containing Occlusive Agents, Humectants and Physiological Lipids on Skin Hydration of Healthy Dogs When Applied After Bathing With a Chlorhexidine 2%/Miconazole 2% Shampoo

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 140-147, February 2026.
Background: Normal hydration of the canine epidermis is imperative for cutaneous homeostasis. Xerosis may be encountered in canine atopic dermatitis and may be aggravated by topical antiseptics. Hypothesis and Objectives: To evaluate the hydrating properties and the safety of a spray (Sensiderm spray; MP Labo) when applied after shampooing healthy dogs

Negative attitudes of an indigenous community are associated with lethal control of rodents in a temperate forest of Mexico

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
The essential ecological roles of rodents are often overlooked, as they can decimate crops and spread diseases. We aimed to unpack the knowledge, attitudes and control practices of farmers and foresters towards rodents from an indigenous community in Nuevo San Juan, Mexico.

Do Ambitious Goals Call for Stringent Policy? The Stringency, Target Sectors, and Measures of Finland's Climate and Energy Policy in Response to EU Greenhouse Gas Emission Targets

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines how the climate and energy policy in Finland changed between the two parliamentary terms of 2015–2019 and 2019–2023, when the EU tightened its greenhouse gas emission targets. We analyze the relevant policy measures (N = 223) of five government strategic plans and evaluate their stringency, i.e., their compulsory and ...

Modelling Wetting Collapse, Failure and Deposition of an Unsaturated Slope With Material Point Method

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 18, Page 4526-4551, 25 December 2025.
ABSTRACT The paper presents the modelling of unsaturated soils with the material point method (MPM), including the effect of wetting leading to the loss of strength and the volumetric collapse. The elastoplastic Clay and Sand Model (CASM) extended to unsaturated conditions, formulated in terms of Bishop's stress and suction, has been implemented in an ...

Passive acoustic monitoring paired with machine learning outperforms playback surveys for a rare and cryptic species, the Black‐billed Cuckoo (Coccyzus erythropthalmus)

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Compared to playback surveys, passive acoustic monitoring provides increased detection probability and lower costs for monitoring a rare and cryptic avian species. Abstract Monitoring rare and cryptic species presents unique challenges and is of high importance for conservation practitioners.
