Causal Effects on Nonterminal Event Time With Application to Antibiotic Usage and Future Resistance

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 15-17, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Comparing future antibiotic resistance levels resulting from different antibiotic treatments is challenging because some patients may survive only under one of the antibiotic treatments. We embed this problem within a semi‐competing risks approach to study the causal effect on resistant infection, treated as a nonterminal event time.

A Mixture of Distributed Lag Non‐Linear Models to Account for Spatially Heterogeneous Exposure‐Lag‐Response Associations

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 15-17, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental exposures, such as air pollution and extreme temperatures, have complex effects on human health. These effects are often characterized by non‐linear exposure‐lag‐response relationships and delayed impacts over time. Accurately capturing these dynamics is crucial for informing public health interventions.

Formal Approach to Safety‐Driven Dynamic Procedure Modeling

open access: yesSystems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the safety of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) is a growing concern as the number of UAS grows increasingly fast. Regulatory bodies are in the process of tackling this problem by issuing standards and recommendations to be met by UAS designers.

Does Antecedent Catchment Wetness Explain the Timing of Rainfall‐Runoff Relationship Shifts?

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Annual rainfall‐runoff relationships have been shown to shift during droughts and, in many catchments, not recover, resulting in less runoff per unit of precipitation than prior to the drought. While the cause of these shifts appears to be related to plant water use and subsurface water dynamics, it is still unclear which climatic conditions ...

Trade‐offs between surviving and thriving: A careful balance of physiological limitations and reproductive effort under thermal stress

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1994-2010, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Balancing survival and reproduction presents a fundamental evolutionary challenge, especially in extreme and unpredictable environments. Thermoregulatory behaviour, in particular, imposes a costly trade‐off, as time spent maintaining optimal body temperature precludes ...
