Regeneration failure, fire, topography, and climate interact to drive temperate wet forest landscapes into fire traps

Ecography, EarlyView.
Where early successional forests are more flammable than old‐growth forests, forested landscapes are vulnerable to shifting into ‘fire traps' through positive feedbacks, where fire leads to more fire. These feedbacks are amplified by increased flammability driven by climate change, the presence of non‐native flammable plant species, and slowed ...

Seismic Fragility of Gravity and Semi‐Gravity Retaining Walls and Its Impact on the Functionality Loss of Road Infrastructures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retaining walls are key geotechnical components of road infrastructure, whose seismic performance directly affects the resilience of transportation networks. Despite their importance, seismic fragility models for retaining walls available in the literature refer only to specific case studies.

Designing a Culture‐Driven C‐STEAM Project Framework for Vocational Education

Future in Educational Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid rapid technological advances and a growing emphasis on cultural sustainability in education, STEAM education has been widely adopted to support interdisciplinary learning and decision‐making skills. However, many STEAM implementations remain largely instrumental, regularly neglecting cultural meaning‐making, value orientation, and ...

Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...

Rethinking a positive‐sum game: US FDI location decisions in the presence of Chinese FDI

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This study examines how rising Chinese outbound foreign direct investment (OFDI) in third‐country markets shapes US MNEs' foreign direct investment location decisions amid escalating US–China geopolitical rivalry. US firms initially benefit from complementary co‐location dynamics, as Chinese OFDI—particularly in infrastructure—
