Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Cold weather conditions impose substantial constraints upon the performance and long‐term resilience of concrete materials. Alkali‐activated slag (AAS) presents itself as a promising substitute, exhibiting sustained hydraulic activity even when exposed to ambient conditions characterized by low temperatures.

Bacterial healing of cracks in metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete exposed to high temperatures
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study examined the bacterial healing of metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete modified with colemanite (K) and red mud (RM) exposed to high temperatures. The metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete samples modified with 4% K and 6% RM were prepared.

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...
