Assessing Policy‐Oriented Learning About Climate‐Related Forest Disturbances in Europe
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT European forests provide multiple ecosystem services but are increasingly under pressure from climate‐related disturbances such as droughts, storms and insect calamities. Forest policy is an important driver for the adaptation of forest management practices to climate change.

Ecology of the forest elephant in Tai National Park, Ivory Coast
Pachyderm, 1984 Also published in Swara vol 7 no 5, 1984. Research on the ecology of the forest elephant is of recent development due to its habitat, the tropical rain forest. Methods used in Tai National Park were based on indirect observation.

Electron, EarlyView.Herein, a biomimetic, anisotropic, robust wood‐derived 3D conductive Bio‐C@YB2C2 framework was synthesized by in situ boron/carbon thermal reduction reaction on the carbonized wood template. The as‐obtained Bio‐C@YB2C2 composites accurately inherit the specific microstructure of natural wood, providing pathways for terahertz wave dissipation.

Displacement Estimation of Structures With Flag‐Shaped Hysteresis Loops
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Time‐history analyses were conducted on single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) systems with flag‐shaped hysteresis loops using a far‐field ground motion suite to estimate peak displacements, Δp, and equivalent deformation cycles, Nc, associated with cumulative displacement demands.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber (PT‐CLT) rocking walls offer a compelling seismic system combining self‐centering behavior with energy dissipation. However, progress in their performance assessment and design has been limited by the lack of a comprehensive parametric modeling tool, as exists for steel or reinforced concrete systems. This
