Influence of Temperature Dependent Properties on Tunneling Cracks in Multi‐Layer Polymer Thin Films
ABSTRACT Tunneling cracks severely compromise the mechanical integrity of multi‐layer polymer thin films on stiff substrates. Although previous models assume a constant elastic modulus, this study characterizes four candidate thermoset polymers. Their elastic modulus (E$$ E $$), coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and glass transition temperature ...

Grassland fragmentation effects on cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera are habitat‐specific. Isolated sand steppe fragments are associated with higher brood‐cell abundance. In loess steppes, higher flower frequency increases bee brood‐cell production and parasitoid activity. Abstract The global decline in insects threatens ecosystem functioning, but the drivers

Is Time Travel Possible? Accidental Signs as Sociolinguistic “Wormholes”
ABSTRACT Sociolinguistics primarily focuses on deliberately staged public signs, while relatively less attention has been given to ephemeral and non‐deliberate signs in urban environments. This study investigates “ accidental signs,” which are hidden historical texts suddenly exposed by unpredictable events.

Everyday Stressors and Sense of Purpose: The Role of Stressor‐Related Opportunities for Goal Pursuit
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined whether everyday stressor occurrence is associated with lower sense of purpose, and whether this association depends on stressor‐related goal opportunities, the Big Five personality traits, or trait purpose. Methods Data came from the Daily Experiences and Health Study (N = 236, ages 25–87).

UV signature mutation hyperhotspots as genomic dosimeters
Recurrent UV signature mutations are a sensitive and specific indicator of sun exposure. UV signature mutations (C → T mutations at dipyrimidine sites) were quantified using Duplex Sequencing and a stringent mutation calling protocol to identify true low‐abundance mutations.

A Public Philosophy for Public Administration in Times of Democratic Crisis
ABSTRACT Public administration is at the center of the global democratic crisis. Meeting this challenge requires more than managerial and analytic competence—it requires a public philosophy grounded in the first principles of democratic ethos. We offer such a philosophy, drawing on four seminal thinkers whose concepts reflect the conditions public ...

Performance of planted native seedlings in felled strips within Pinus radiata plantation forest
Abstract Introduction Exotic plantations could facilitate native forest restoration through a managed transition utilizing partial harvest, poisoning, or natural senescence of the plantation. Objectives To explore canopy gap creation and herbivore exclusion in a Pinus radiata plantation on planted seedlings of three native tree species.
