Spatially asymmetric and temporally dynamic ecological responses to river barrier removal: A global meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 10, October 2026.
Barrier removal initiates ecological recovery rather than delivering immediate restoration, with responses shaped by spatial context, initial conditions and time since removal. Monitoring should therefore extend beyond the first post‐removal year and, where feasible, continue for at least 5 years, particularly in downstream reaches, while incorporating

Engineering compact Physalis peruviana (goldenberry) to promote its potential as a global crop

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1550-1556, September 2026.
Goldenberry (Physalis peruviana) produces sweet, nutritionally rich berries, yet like many minor crops, is cultivated in limited geographical regions and has not been a focus of breeding programs for trait enhancement. Leveraging knowledge of plant architecture‐related traits from related species, we used CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated gene editing to generate a

Ephemeral Earthmoving Labour Versus the Great Acceleration: (Re)producing the Flux Urban Political Ecologies of Bolivian Amazonia

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The article investigates how Indigenous labour interacts with powerful sediment movements and flooding cycles in 23 riverine communities in Bolivian Amazonia. These interactions, we argue, transcend the binary between human labour and biophysical processes in shaping flux urban political ecologies, landscapes and human settlements that ...

Bridging the Gap Between L1 and L2: Enhanced Emotional Vocabulary Through Elaborative Processing in Spanish‐Speaking English Language Learners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 2218-2229, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Foreign languages are often learnt in formal and disembodied environments which may limit the emotional resonance of their vocabulary and their pragmatic usage in real‐life communication. In a context of English as a foreign language (EFL), this study examines whether elaborative processing as a teaching strategy leads to changes in the ...

Domesticating robots, domesticating language: The hylomorphic paradox of “openness” in large language models

open access: yesJournal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract This article examines how openness is interpreted in human–LLM interaction through an ethnographic study of a robotics experiment. Focusing on an episode in which a robot produced an unexpected utterance, I analyze how engineers classify the output as inconsequential noise.

Do Criminalization Policies Impact Local Homelessness?

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Local criminalization policies draw on the logic of deterrence to levy costs on individuals who engage in behaviors that are closely associated with various public concerns, such as those criminalizing behaviors associated with homelessness, thereby potentially reducing community‐level costs.

Epistemic opacity in Antarctic science: Unknowing the last frontier

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1641-1647, June 2026.
Abstract Antarctica is facing intensifying pressures from climate change, industrial fishing, tourism and renewed geopolitical competition, even as scientific activity on the continent reaches unprecedented levels. We argue that this proliferation of research often fails to deliver the integrated, policy‐relevant knowledge needed for precautionary ...

Laws, Enforcement, and Strategy: A Multi‐Layered Qualitative Study of Multinational Enterprise Compliance Under European Union and Chinese Data Protection Regimes

open access: yesPolicy &Internet, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In an era of proliferating but divergent data protection regimes, the European Union's rights‐based approach and China's sovereignty‐centric model have become two dominant poles of global data governance. This article examines how multinational enterprises navigate compliance under these dual systems and how that compliance is shaped through ...
