Behavior of manufactured sand and recycled coarse aggregate concrete‐filled steel tubular stub columns with circular section

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Accelerated urbanization has intensified environmental concerns due to excessive natural resource consumption and construction waste generation. Circular concrete‐filled steel tube (CFST) columns incorporating manufactured sand recycled coarse aggregate (MS‐RCA) concrete have emerged as an innovative composite element offering notable ...

Host‐mediated filtering and interspecific associations structure strongyle parasite communities in Sable Island horses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using individual‐level nemabiome metabarcoding of 3147 samples from 916 horses on Sable Island over 10 years, we generate the largest dataset of its kind to date. This unprecedented scale enables a rare test of the processes structuring parasite communities in a natural system, revealing dominant host‐mediated filtering and predominantly positive ...

Comparative Assessment of Alternative Fine Aggregates for Sustainable Concrete: Physical, Chemical and Mechanical Characterization of Sri Lankan Sands [PDF]

open access: yesNature Environment and Pollution Technology
The over-extraction of river sand in Sri Lanka has reduced alluvial reserves in major basins by over 40% between 2010 and 2023, highlighting an urgent need for sustainable alternatives.

Interdisciplinary Theorizing I Tell You Folks, It's Harder Than It Looks

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Calls for interdisciplinary scholarship are ubiquitous, but what that means and why/how it is done are more often assumed than explained. Clarifying what it takes to theorize across disciplines, why it is important and how to set the conditions for success is the point of this essay.

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a Mediterranean coastal area: implications for dune conservation in a long‐term ecological research eLTER site

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a protected coastal dune system in Central Italy, revealing strong ecological associations between moth assemblages and dune zonation. Differences in species composition and trait attributes, along with the presence of habitat‐exclusive species, highlight the role of ...

The Australian Hydromyine Rodents—Their Interspecific Diversity and Reproductive Biology: A Review

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
There are two major groups, the Rattus species and the Hydromyini, in Australia. Clearly, the hydromyine rodents, unlike the Rattus genus, exhibit a diverse array of reproductive biological traits in both males and females, the full evolutionary significance of which has yet to be ascertained.
