Lessons from an eradication under multiple constraints of an island rat population of record density

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Invasive rats threaten island biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and endangering native species. Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...

Competence Development and Evaluation Dynamics in the Context of Learning

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Organizations operating in high‐risk environments rely on learning from real incidents, yet how evaluation practices contribute to competence development and organizational learning remains insufficiently understood. This challenge is evident in police operations, where decisions made under uncertainty have immediate implications for safety ...

Assessing contributions of deterministic versus stochastic processes to local species assembly: A field experiment with annual plant‐dominated communities in gypsum systems

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this study, we experimentally show that stochasticity can play prominent roles in driving local species assembly in annual plant‐dominated communities of semiarid gypsum ecosystems. Drylands are traditionally viewed as restrictive environments that impose strong deterministic filtering effects, but neutral events can also contribute decisively to ...

Addressing Challenging Place Recognition Tasks using Generative Adversarial Networks

, 2018
Place recognition is an essential component of Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM). Under severe appearance change, reliable place recognition is a difficult perception task since the same place is perceptually very different in the morning, at ...

Eco‐Efficient Processing and Refining Routes for Secondary Raw Materials from Silicon Ingot and Wafer Manufacturing

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The ICARUS project developed pilot‐scale processes to recover and refine secondary raw materials from silicon photovoltaic (PV) ingot and wafer manufacturing waste. Silicon kerf, graphite, and silica residues are purified into high‐value inputs for the PV value chain and beyond.

Cost–benefit analysis of first‐trimester pre‐eclampsia screening: comparison of multivariable Gaussian algorithm with and without placental growth factor

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 162-167, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Pre‐eclampsia (PE) is a leading cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Early identification of high‐risk pregnancies in the first trimester allows preventive treatment with low‐dose aspirin. This study aimed to evaluate whether multivariable Gaussian algorithm‐based PE screening strategies, with and without

Reala optioner : ett strategiskt verktyg

, 2003
Background: Businesses are traditionally valued with the so called Discounted Cash Flow-model. When valuing newly-started businesses, surrounded by high uncertainty, and whose capital mostly consists of unrealized business opportunities, the Discounted Cash Flow-model needs to be complemented if the total value of the business is to be captured.
