Long‐term vegetation changes in elephant‐related areas of concern in Kruger National Park, South Africa

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract African elephants, whether alone or in combination with other environmental factors such as floods, droughts, fire, and other herbivores, have significant impacts on large savanna trees, often contributing to declines over time. However, their effects on woody vegetation in general remain less well understood.

Predictors of Maternal Vitamin D Deficiency and Associated Adverse Neonatal Outcomes in Eastern Uganda: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Vitamin D deficiency in pregnancy has been linked to adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, but evidence from Uganda is limited. We estimated the prevalence of maternal vitamin D deficiency at delivery, identified associated factors, and assessed immediate neonatal outcomes.

Monopoles, Clarified

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a manifestly duality‐invariant, Lorentz‐invariant, and local action to describe quantum electrodynamics in the presence of magnetic monopoles that derives from Sen's formalism. By employing field strengths as the dynamical variables, rather than potentials, this formalism resolves longstanding ambiguities in prior frameworks.

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

Metagenomic Analysis of Thawing Permafrost Highlights Links Between Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling Processes in Abrupt Thaw Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Abrupt permafrost thaw events are projected to contribute up to 40% of permafrost carbon (C) release to the atmosphere. They involve sudden hydrological shifts within the soil column; however, the exact microbial functional pathway shifts induced by these events remain cryptic. To investigate how C and nutrient cycling processes differ in thaw

High‐energy synchrotron X‐ray multimodal computed tomography: enabling multiscale materials characterization at NSLS‐II

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 531-542, March 2026.
The development of multimodal X‐ray computed tomography capabilities, including imaging, fluorescence, diffraction, and scattering, at the 28‐ID‐2 beamline of the National Synchrotron Light Source II is described.We report the commissioning of a multimodal computed tomography experimental setup at the 28‐ID‐2 (XPD) beamline of the National Synchrotron ...

BEYOND THE PARALYSIS OF THE POST‐POLITICAL? The Micropolitical in Post‐Political Participatory Planning in Copenhagen, Denmark

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 309-328, March 2026.
Abstract Participatory planning is widely used for the purpose of democratizing urban governance. Yet, the literature on post‐politics largely depicts participatory decision‐making contexts as spaces devoid of the ‘properly political’. Scholars critical of post‐politics find this lens paralyzing, as the approach may disregard political moments arising ...

The McKinleys of Punch: Politics and the Press in Melbourne, 1870s to 1920s

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Politics &History, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 35-68, March 2026.
This article re‐examines the Melbourne Punch (1855–1925; known simply as Punch from 1900) as a political weapon in the cut‐and‐thrust of Victorian, local, and national politics, in the hands of its longest‐serving, but least‐known proprietor, Alexander McKinley (1848–1927).

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War

open access: yesAnthropology of Consciousness, Volume 37, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the

Beyond Climate Security: Reframing the Climate‐War Nexus Through Bataille's General Economy

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract The spectre of resource scarcity as a cause of war is dominant in discussions about potential links between climate change and armed conflict. Via engagement with Georges Bataille's theory of a general economy of the biosphere, this article conceptualises the relationship between climate change and war by focusing on resource excess as a ...
