Uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains: Evidence for an Evolving and Long‐Lived Rayleigh‐Taylor Instability

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rayleigh‐Taylor instabilities within the upper mantle are investigated as a mechanism for the uplift of rift‐margin mountain ranges within the continents. Our focus is on the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM). These mountains form at the margin between East and West Antarctica and have been free from the effects of subduction for about 500 ...

Functional impact of bilateral vestibular loss and the unexplained complaint of oscillopsia

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionThe vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) stabilizes vision during head movements. VOR disorders lead to symptoms such as imbalance, dizziness, and oscillopsia. Despite similar VOR dysfunction, patients display diverse complaints. This study analyses

Effect of Thermal and Freeze‐Drying on the Volatile Composition of Mountain Horopito (Pseudowintera colorata) and Kawakawa (Piper excelsum)

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mountain horopito (Pseudowintera colorata) and kawakawa (Piper excelsum) are plants endemic to Aotearoa|New Zealand with cultural and medicinal importance for Indigenous Māori. These plants have also become popular in food applications. Drying is an important preservation technique for extending the shelf life of herbs, which alters the ...

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1121-1144, August 2026.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

State biomarkers for Machado Joseph disease: Validation, feasibility and responsiveness to change

Genetics and Molecular Biology
Machado-Joseph disease (SCA3/MJD) is the most common spinocerebellar ataxia worldwide, and particularly so in Southern Brazil. Due to an expanded polyglutamine at ataxin-3, SCA3/MJD presents a relentless course with no current disease modifying treatment.
