Solid Biofuel Usage and Households' Behavior Toward Energy Choice in Northwest Ethiopia
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This study analyzed household energy choice behavior in northwest Ethiopia using an integrated energy stacking and decision‐making framework. Evidence shows dominant reliance on solid biomass and a fuel‐stacking pattern, while urban residences, higher income, and education increase clean energy adoption, highlighting the need for pro‐poor, context ...

Caught in the fire: An accidental ethnography of discomfort in researching sex work
Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.Abstract Drawing on fifteen years of engagement with researching Israel's sex industry, this article uses accidental ethnography to propose discomfort‐as‐method for feminist anthropology. I argue that discomfort is not a by‐product of fieldwork but a constitutive condition that disciplines researchers and shapes what can be known.

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Tiny “ecosystem engineers,” plateau pikas range across 1600 m², about two basketball courts, mixing soil and nutrients that sustain Tibet's fragile grasslands. Custom‐made trackers and drone imagery show dawn‐to‐dusk surface foraging and nested‐scale patch choices, offering fresh guidance for wildlife‐friendly grazing management.
