Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 507-531, June 2026.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...

The impact of English on local languages: The case of Catalan universities

open access: yesWorld Englishes, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 309-322, June 2026.
Abstract This article deals with the somehow complex equilibrium of languages used in Catalonia, with a particular analysis of the role of English vis‐a‐vis the national language (Spanish) and the regional official language (Catalan). A discussion of the supremacy of standard languages over local ones in modern history, followed by an account of the ...

Seismic Precursors to the Blatten, Switzerland Landslide Revealed by Unsupervised Machine Learning

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract The transition from stable to unstable states in geological systems, such as landslides and fault zones, remains poorly understood. Seismic precursors and foreshocks related to the transition, if present, are often difficult to observe, and their interpretation remains challenging.

Decoupling Seasonal Seismic Velocity Changes on Slow‐Moving Slopes in Southwest China Using Tree Ensemble Machine Learning

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Changes in seismic properties can help assess slope damage, which is influenced by external factors such as temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, air pressure, and local seismicity. However, the contributions of these factors, and how the dominant factor modulates transient and seasonal seismic velocity changes (δv/v $\delta v/v$), remain ...

Zwitterionic Penicillin‐Derived Sulfone Inhibitor for Combating β‐Lactamase‐Mediated Antibiotic Resistance

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
Combining enhanced permeability strategies with (2‐pyridyl)methylene substitution in the sulbactam scaffold led to a novel β‐lactamase inhibitor to combat β‐lactamase‐mediated resistance to β‐lactam antibiotics. The studies presented highlight the potential of compound 3 as a next‐generation β‐lactamase inhibitor for combating infections caused by ...

Novel GH115 xylan α‐1,2‐glucuronidases with distinct preferences for xylan‐derived oligomers and polymers

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Natural polymers are promising sustainable materials for diverse applications. Xylans, major components of hemicellulose, exhibit origin‐dependent substitution patterns that determine their physicochemical properties. Targeted enzymatic modification of these substituents offers a mild and precise approach for tailoring the polymer's ...

Future Drought Will Lead to a Decrease in Vegetation Resilience in China

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The interactions between climate change and socioeconomic development have led to significant changes in vegetation resilience in response to drought in China. However, an understanding of the changes in vegetation resilience in response to drought events under different future scenarios (SSP126, SSP245, SSP370, and SSP585) is lacking. Drought

Enseigner la France en géographie aux jeunes écoliers (1788-2008) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For the last two centuries, the ways of teaching geography of France to the young French pupils from 9 to 11 years old have known many transformations. The objectives and the finality have changed. These transformations result from the general changes in
