Two Problems for the Political Inclusion of Animals
Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, the field of animal ethics has taken a political turn, with scholars arguing that sentient nonhuman animals should be included in the political sphere. This article explores two key challenges arising from this turn towards the political inclusion of animals: the Conflict Problem and the Numbers Problem.

Land Use Transformation and Climate Resilience in Smart Cities: Role of ICT in Modern Urban Planning
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Modern urban planning is experiencing a transition from traditional planning to the integration of information technology, which defines the concept of a “smart city”. The study analyses the evolution of urban planning practices with an emphasis on the role of engineering and architecture in the process of urbanization, the transition to the ...

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.This work introduces two types of bound states in the continuum (BICs) and their merging in a waveguide‐resonator system, which significantly enhances the quality factor (Q$Q$). Benefiting from the high‐Q$Q$ characteristics of quasi‐BICs, a sensitivity‐tunable complex permittivity sensor is developed based on this system, achieving improvements of 93 ...

Networks, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Community dynamics of lignicolous lichens on standing deadwood in a 275‐year chronosequence
Oikos, EarlyView.Dead trees provide discrete habitat patches in which patch quality changes gradually due to wood decomposition. Although in most cases these patches persist for not more than a few decades, in some ecosystems deadwood decomposition and the consequent change in habitat patch quality can be a centuries‐long process, potentially leading to dynamics of ...

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.The study quantifies environmental impacts of 1 L of ultra‐high‐temperature milk bottles, comparing a 50% recycled opaque PET (rPET) bottle with 100% virgin PET bottles under closed‐loop and non‐closed‐loop recycling scenarios. Results show that 50% opaque rPET bottles outperform 100% virgin PET bottles across all impact categories, enabled by an ...
