Direct Policy Search for a Risk‐Based Levee Design Framework With Scenario Reduction

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Risk‐based management of coastal flood risk using realistic, process‐based models poses computational challenges, particularly when addressing uncertainties like sea‐level rise. This study explores the use of direct policy search (DPS) as a state‐dependent, adaptive decision‐making approach for upgrading levee systems.

ABSTRACT This Intervention reflects on the multiple, contradictory and ambivalent relations human geography has with ‘the new’. Some sort of relation with the new is an inescapable and necessary part of all practices of knowledge generation. Newness, whether it be an empirical finding, an idea, a concept or an approach, can fuel the interest, wonder ...

Comparing the Accuracy of Osteological Sex Estimation Against Genetic Sex Obtained From Human Dental Calculus in 12th–19th C. British Individuals Accuratezza della stima osteologica del sesso confrontata con la determinazione del sesso genetico ottenuta dal tartaro dentale in individui britannici tra XII e XIX secolo

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives For anthropologists and forensic scientists, sex estimation using skeletally dimorphic traits is fundamental in biological profile reconstruction. Archaeogenetic research on past populations allows us to identify genetic sex generating opportunities to validate the accuracy of commonly used skeletal traits.

Protein Extraction From Mycobacterium spp. for Identification by MALDI‐TOF Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The identification of mycobacteria remains challenging due to the high species diversity within the genus and the lack of a molecular method able to identify them in a single assay. Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF MS) has been used as a rapid and promising alternative for bacterial ...

Multi‐year partner fidelity is associated with higher annual reproductive output in a biparental subtropical shorebird

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Partner fidelity is a key component of reproductive strategies in socially monogamous species, yet its adaptive value remains context dependent and poorly understood outside environments with short breeding seasons. In most bird species, partners may remain together or re‐pair between successive nesting attempts, but it remains unclear which components

The Sanitization of the Night: Gentrification and the Everyday Temporal Politics in Belgrade

open access: yesCity &Society, Volume 38, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban scholarship increasingly recognizes that processes such as gentrification unfold not only through spatial transformations, but through shifts in sensory environments and everyday rhythms. In this paper, drawing on twenty‐three months of fieldwork in Belgrade, I examine how urban redevelopment (re)organizes time for middle‐class people ...
