Diverse hosts, diverse immune systems: Evolutionary variation in bat immunology

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.
Bats are recognized to have distinct immune systems from other vertebrates that may allow them to host virulent pathogens without showing disease. However, these flying mammals are also incredibly diverse, such that bats should not be expected to be immunologically homogenous.

Toward a “strong” normativity of fear in Hans Jonas and Aristotle

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract What does it mean to say that one “ought” to undergo an emotion? In The Imperative of Responsibility, Hans Jonas provocatively asserts that twentieth‐century citizens “ought” to fear for the well‐being of future generations. I argue that Jonas's demand is not straightforwardly reducible to claims about the fittingness, expedience, or aretaic ...

Henri Lefebvre and the spatial revolution that never ends: Towards the reconciliation of anarchist and Marxist approaches in geography?

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Abstract It is widely accepted that Henri Lefebvre's Marxism had anarchistic traits, but few have tried to specify what these traits are, or what they mean. This paper argues that Lefebvre's work should be seen as first and foremost an anti‐authoritarian theory that uses space, rather than a spatial theory.

Multispecies slavery–environment nexus in resource extraction and animals' ecological politics: Coercive donkey labour in Indian river sand mining

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Coercive animal labour is often state sanctioned as an ecologically friendly mode of sand mining, based on anthropocentric environmental ideology that sees animal bodies as solutions or fixes for often human‐caused environmental crises, even as, incrementally, it causes extreme ecological destruction.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

The Commodification of Waste in Cairo, Egypt: Capital, Colonial Sanitation, and Value's Mobile Frontier

Antipode, Volume 57, Issue 5, Page 1639-1662, September 2025.
Abstract Dominant narratives of Cairo's waste challenges frame the issue as a consequence of overpopulation and unsanitary behaviour, advocating for technocratic solutions led by global private firms and technological innovation. These narratives, however, obscure the commodification of waste and the colonial discourses that justify waste's ...

Bringing electrical conductivity to SiAlON ceramics by integrating zeolitic imidazolate framework‐derived nanocarbons

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 108, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract α/β‐Silicon aluminum oxynitride (SiAlON) ceramics reinforced with zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF‐8) up to 20 wt% have been fabricated by spark plasma sintering to impart electrical conductivity without compromising the mechanical properties.

Vertical Profiling of Aerosol Physicochemical Properties With a New Airborne Aerosol Sampling System for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Tethered Balloons

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract Vertical profiling of aerosol physicochemical properties, such as chemical composition, aerosol hygroscopicity, mixing state, is crucial for understanding their interactions with boundary layer evolution and their impacts on atmospheric environment. Traditional in situ vertical observations of those properties mainly rely on aircraft platforms,

Morphodynamic adaptation timescales of the Guyana mangrove‐mudflat system: Are coastlines shaped by migrating mudbanks more resilient against sea level rise?

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 10, August 2025.
A coastline in motion—mudbanks migrating, intertidal mudflats and mangroves adapting, waves and tides shaping the landscape. This study uncovers equilibrium timescales, cyclic forces and sea level rise impacts, revealing nature's resilience until thresholds are exceeded.

The deep ocean as a major sink for terrestrial organic carbon

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 557-565, August 2025.
Abstract Rivers transport ~200 Tg of particulate organic carbon (POC) to the global ocean annually, of which 30% is known to be buried in continental‐shelf sediments. The fate of the remaining “missing” terrestrial POC (POCterr) remains uncertain, with proposed explanations including rapid remineralization or transport to the remote deep ocean.
