Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Bio‐based epoxy systems enabling sustainable, durable, and high‐performance flax fiber composites. ABSTRACT Three bio‐based epoxy systems—Polar Bear, Green Turtle, and Plankton—featuring bio‐carbon contents of 28% to 70%, were combined with recyclable (Recyclamine R101) and non‐recyclable hardeners to produce flax fiber‐reinforced biocomposites.

DuckNet: an open‐source deep learning tool for waterfowl species identification in UAV imagery
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Using drones with thermal‐RGB sensors and a deep learning model (RetinaNet with ResNet‐50), we surveyed non‐breeding waterfowl across restored wetlands in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley. Our model, DuckNet, achieved high accuracy and offers an open‐source, customizable tool for automated waterfowl detection to support conservation monitoring ...

Breaking down seagrass fragmentation in a marine heatwave impacted World Heritage Area
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Habitat fragmentation can exacerbate the impacts of habitat loss but is rarely quantified in marine environments. Using satellite‐derived habitat maps, we identify widespread seagrass fragmentation following a marine heatwave that contributed to a dramatic shift in seascape structure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.The endangered tri‐spine horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus), a “living fossil” crucial to coastal ecology and biomedical research, is experiencing severe population declines. Effective conservation requires efficient monitoring, which traditional methods cannot deliver at scale. We develop an integrated UAV deep learning framework tailored to this

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Identity Play: Middle School Youths' Provisional Self‐Making in Horizon‐Expanding STEM Spaces
Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study introduces identity play as an analytic construct for science education to explore improvisational dimensions of middle school students' STEM identity development in multiple out‐of‐school learning experiences focused on environmental problem‐solving.
