(Im)possibility of Redress: Mega‐Infrastructures and the Voided Politics of Contestation

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Drawing on critical geography's recent engagement with negativity, this article intervenes in dominant relational approaches to infrastructure by examining the (im)possibility of redress under mega‐infrastructure development through a case study of the Lamu Port–South Sudan–Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor in coastal Kenya.

Experimental and Modeling Investigation of Seawater Hydrolysis Effects on Aramid Fiber Rupture Behavior

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 15, Page 3289-3309, 1 August 2026.
Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...

Sustainability: The Forgotten Arena of eSports Research—A Systematic Literature Review From an ESG Perspective

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 5487-5514, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the growth of eSports, the sector faces critical challenges related to its sustainability. This research analyzes these issues from an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) perspective. This paper consists of a systematic literature review on eSports and its implications for sustainability.

Key Drivers for Offshore Wind Deployment in the Western United States

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The western coast of the United States has abundant natural resources, including wind, sun, and water. Despite strong ocean winds, offshore wind energy (OSW) in the Western United States is in the early stages of technology development due largely to the deep water off the coast, which requires floating platforms rather than fixed‐bottom ...

Robust Regional Contrast but Penetration‐Sensitive Snow Thickness Over Sea Ice From Multi‐Winter Antarctic CRYO2ICE Observations

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Snow on Antarctic sea ice modulates albedo, thermodynamic growth, and snow–ice formation, yet remains a leading uncertainty in altimetry‐derived sea‐ice thickness. Here we use the post‐2022 CRYO2ICE configuration to derive along‐track winter snow thickness from ICESat‐2 laser and CryoSat‐2 Ku‐band radar freeboards over the Weddell and Ross ...

Ammonia Metabolism in the Aging Liver: Emerging Mechanistic Insights

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
Liver aging may weaken ammonia‐detoxification reserve by disrupting mitochondrial ureagenesis, GS‐mediated scavenging, glutamine metabolism, and metabolic zonation. This emerging framework links impaired nitrogen handling to potential hepatic stress amplification and systemic crosstalk, while highlighting the need for direct validation in physiological

Differential Myopathic and Transcriptomic Changes in Soleus and Gastrocnemius Muscles in a Novel Chronic Hindlimb Ischemia Rat Model Induced by Endovascular Catheter Occlusion

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a progressive atherothrombotic disorder affecting more than 230 million people worldwide. Conventional animal models of chronic hindlimb ischemia (HLI) are highly invasive, technically challenging, fail to account for anatomical variation, and may not accurately recapitulate progressive PAD pathophysiology ...

Resident and Migratory Falcons' Breeding Phenology and Productivity Respond Differently to Weather and Climate Change Across the Arctic

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climate change is altering breeding phenology and productivity of peregrine falcons and gyrfalcons across the circumpolar Arctic. Long‐term monitoring shows that responses vary among study areas and Arctic regions, with some populations advancing hatch dates while others show weaker or contrasting trends, highlighting spatially variable effects of ...

Effect of Sulphate-Reducing Bacteria Activity on the Performance of Thermally Sprayed Aluminium and Polyurethane Coatings

Crystals
In the present work, we studied whether the exposure of synthetic seawater with anaerobic sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) on some steel samples generates a bacterial biofilm in their surfaces.
