How Circular Economy Innovation Can Backfire on the Environment: Quantifying the Rebound Effect of the Textiles and Clothing Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 34, Issue 8, Page 10495-10512, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is championed as a sustainability solution, promoting reuse, recycling and resource efficiency to reduce environmental harm. However, CE innovations can trigger a rebound effect (RE), where lower costs stimulate higher consumption and production, paradoxically negating sustainability gains.

Homogeneous Soil Moisture Fields Suppress Sahelian MCS Frequency

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract Understanding controls on Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) is critical for predicting rainfall extremes across scales. Spatial variability of soil moisture (SM) presents such a control, with ∼ ${\sim} $200 km dry patches in the Sahel observed to intensify mature MCSs.

Mechanistic basis for inhibition of the extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase GES‐1 by enmetazobactam and tazobactam

FEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 22, Page 3284-3300, November 2025.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is of huge importance, resulting in over 1 million deaths each year. Here, we describe how a new drug, enmetazobactam, designed to help fight resistant bacterial diseases, inhibits a key enzyme (GES‐1) responsible for AMR. Our data show it is a more potent inhibitor than the related tazobactam, with high‐level computation

A Comprehensive Survey on LLM‐Based Network Management and Operations

International Journal of Network Management, Volume 35, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT The growing demands for network capacity and the increasing complexities of modern network environments pose significant challenges for effective network management and operations. In response, network operators and administrators are moving beyond traditional manual and rule‐based methods, adopting advanced artificial intelligence (AI)‐driven
