Experimental Study on Fine Sediment Infiltration (FSI) Processes in Different Gravel Mixtures
ABSTRACT Fine sediment infiltration (FSI) can lead to riverbed clogging, thereby degrading important habitats for aquatic biota in the hyporheic interstitial zone of gravel‐bed rivers (e.g., by reducing oxygen availability). This stress on rivers may increase from anthropogenic influences and can be counteracted by artificial gravel augmentation to ...

Trade Unions and Sustainability: An Integrative Review
ABSTRACT Despite the growing presence of trade unions (TUs) in sustainability discussions, academic research on their role is still scattered. This article presents an integrative review of 110 peer‐reviewed English‐language academic articles on this topic, indexed in Scopus and Web of Science and published between 1997 and early 2025.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.
