From cognitive coherence to political polarization: A data‐driven agent‐based model of belief change

Political Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Political polarization represents a rising issue in many countries, making it more and more important to understand its relation to cognitive‐motivational and social influence mechanisms. Yet, the link between micro‐level mechanisms and macro‐level phenomena remains unclear.

Recognition of fossil keratose sponges in carbonates using petrographic and machine‐learning classification

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Filamentous, anastomosing spar‐filled networks in Phanerozoic carbonates have been interpreted as the mineralised remains of keratose (non‐spiculate) sponges, yet their recognition remains contested because fabrics of broadly similar appearance may arise from microbial, diagenetic or physical processes. This study combines direct fossil–modern

Offline Signature Verification using Locally Optimized Distance-based Classification

South African Computer Journal, 2013
Although handwritten signature verification has been extensively researched, it has not achieved an optimal classification accuracy rate. Therefore, efficient and accurate signature verification techniques are required since signatures are still widely ...

Transboundary Spanning in Social Movements: Organizational Structure and Antiracism in the US Extinction Rebellion Movement

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces transboundary spanning as a novel concept for social movement analysis. Using Extinction Rebellion (XR) in the United States as a case study, we examine the relational dynamics of social movement boundary spanning: processes wherein actors and organizations engage across symbolic boundaries.

‘In Curaçao They Celebrate King's Day Abundantly!’ – Diachronic Representation of (Post)colonial Communities in Dutch Geography Textbook Discourse (1946–2018)

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract Postcolonial textbook research leads us to reflect on the representation of (post)colonial communities in educational media for adolescents in geography education. This paper contributes to this scholarship through Critical Discourse Analysis tracing how nine Dutch geography textbooks (1946–2018) have represented such communities from ...

Knowledge gap on the spatial structure of soil nitrogen mineralization variability—A systematic review

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Soil nitrogen (N) mineralization governs plant‐available N from soil organic matter and microbial turnover, and is typically estimated as potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN) via anaerobic incubations or as N0 and mineralization rate (k) via long‐term aerobic incubations.

Spatial analysis of cell patterning to aid genetic and phenotypic understanding of grass stomatal density: A case study in maize

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Biological processes involve complex hierarchies where composite traits result from multiple component traits. However, holistically understanding of how sets of component traits interact to underpin genotype‐to‐phenotype relationships is generally lacking.

A highly accurate, low‐cost method for detecting and quantifying soybean leaf flipping phenotype during drought stress

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract A genome‐wide association study (GWAS) using digital images was conducted to delineate regions of the genome that govern the leaf flipping quantitative trait in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr). However, converting the digital data to numerical scores for downstream analyses was challenging.
