Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Food loss and waste (FLW) within agri‐food supply chains significantly impact the consumer economy, depleting natural resources and contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, thereby posing a critical challenge to sustainable development. Digital transformation is increasingly recognised as a key lever for reducing FLW in agri‐food supply ...

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The Legacies of Lockdown: Moral Logics of Exchange and Mistrust in Postpandemic China
Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT When Shanghai entered an extended lockdown under China's Zero‐COVID policy in spring 2022, residents found themselves confined within their residential compounds, cut off from conventional supply chains, and dependent on improvised systems of local provisioning and state rationing. From the perspective of economic anthropology, such conditions

A Test of the Coase Conjecture Using Prices of Electronic Books
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Coase Conjecture predicts that a durable‐goods monopolist without commitment will rapidly cut price toward marginal cost. We test this prediction in the electronic‐book market using release‐day prices. To proxy for marginal cost, we use competitive prices of public‐domain electronic books on the same platforms.

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

Peptide‐directed nanovehicles enabling tumor‐selective ROS amplification and antitumor immunity
VIEW, EarlyView.Cancer cells are vulnerable to oxidative stress, yet exploit immune tolerance to escape destruction. In contrast, their metabolic profile is markedly altered to support rapid proliferation, accompanied by elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Teaching socio‐communicative behaviours in play routines with caregivers: A feasibility study
British Journal of Special Education, EarlyView.Abstract The first signs of autism often become evident as early as before a child's first birthday, and very early intervention is key to securing optimal outcomes. In the present study, two mother–child dyads participated, with mothers being trained in behavioural strategies targeting socio‐communicative behaviours in their children, who were high ...
