Short‐term soil responses and site conditions to inverted mounding on peatland linear features in Alberta, Canada

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Seismic lines represent one of the most extensive and persistent anthropogenic disturbances in boreal peatlands, limiting forest regeneration and altering key ecosystem functions. Inverted mounding is increasingly applied to elevate planting microsites above shallow water tables, yet evidence on short‐ to medium‐term biophysical ...

Faith in the Marketplace: Christian Legal Narratives and the Refusal to Serve Gay Customers

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In June 2023, the US Supreme Court in 303 Creative v. Elenis held that an anti‐discrimination statute could not force a Christian business owner to provide certain business services to gay people. The decision has created a slew of legal and social uncertainties, which require a deeper investigation of the contemporary conflict between the gay

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation

WIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2026.
The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...
