The Early Upper Palaeolithic in British caves: problems and potential Le Paléolithique supérieur ancien dans les grottes de Grande‐Bretagne : problèmes et potentiels

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early Homo sapiens occupation of Europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. Research on British sites, however, continues to lag. This is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites.

What Are the Performance Indicators for Successful New Product Development Projects in Small and Medium‐Sized Enterprises?*

open access: yesAccounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 125-155, March 2025.
ABSTRACT New product development (NPD) has become essential for many small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) to ensure their competitiveness and survival. However, NPD is fraught with pitfalls that can lead to project failure. To increase the likelihood of success, SMEs need to monitor the performance of their NPD projects using accurate indicators ...

A tutorial on Bayesian model averaging for exponential random graph models

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of exponential random graph models (ERGMs) is becoming prevalent in psychology due to their ability to explain and predict the formation of edges between vertices in a network. Valid inference with ERGMs requires correctly specifying endogenous and exogenous effects as network statistics, guided by theory, to represent the network ...

To vary or not to vary: A flexible empirical Bayes factor for testing variance components

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Random effects are the gold standard for capturing structural heterogeneity, such as individual differences or temporal dependence. Yet testing their presence is difficult because variance components are constrained to be non‐negative, creating a boundary problem. This paper introduces a flexible empirical Bayes factor (EBF) for testing random

Penetration enhancement effects of topically applied crosslinked hyaluronic acid

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Cross‐linked hyaluronic acid (HA) was demonstrated to enhance the topical delivery of a variety of hydrophilic actives into the skin. This phenomenon was observed for both small molecules and macromolecules, the latter of which was analysed with MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI‐MSI).

Evaluating the suitability of six hydrophobic natural eutectic solvents as the internal phase in a cosmetic cream formulation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Hydrophobic natural eutectic solvents can function as structural oil phase substitutes in creams prepared by low‐energy processes, enabling sustainable, regulation‐compliant formulations with desirable sensory profiles. Abstract Objective This work evaluates whether hydrophobic natural eutectic solvents can replace the conventional oil phase in ...

Contribution of Tropical Cyclones to Hourly Precipitation Extremes in the Contiguous United States

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) are major drivers of contiguous United States (CONUS) flooding, yet their contribution to hourly precipitation extremes remains poorly quantified. Here we link observations from 420 gauges (1980–2024) with TC track data to attribute extreme hourly precipitation to both local and remote TCs.

Projected Annual and Monsoonal Precipitation Trends of CMIP6 Over Peninsular Malaysia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
In this study, we examined historical and projected precipitation temporal trends across Peninsular Malaysia using ground‐based records and CMIP6 models from NEX‐GDDP. Analysing data from 518 reliable gauges over 1973–2022, it identified spatial and monsoonal variations.

On the Temporal Variability of Precipitation in Iraq: Arid‐Wet Years and Extreme Events

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
Daily and monthly precipitation data in Iraq display high seasonal to interdecadal variability, with arid and wet years that have very distinct seasonal cycles. Monthly rainfall is significantly correlated with the Indian Ocean Dipole. Extreme events are identified and classified as belonging to four different weather patterns, allowing to obtain daily
