Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Advanced biofuels derived from nonfood biomass are increasingly recognized as strategic components of low‐carbon energy systems, particularly for sectors where direct electrification remains difficult. Second‐generation biofuels from lignocellulosic residues and third‐generation biofuels from algal and aquatic biomass offer complementary ...

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Despite its ubiquity, the trucking industry is not well‐understood in social scientific literature. Gathering insight into truckers' worlds is difficult due to the solitary, isolating, and unpredictable nature of the work. An understanding of truckers' work lives and work ideologies is even further limited.

Alignment of Agile and Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) Principles in Systems Engineering
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Organizations have consistently sought faster and more efficient methods for producing and delivering products. Agile principles offer essential guidance for shaping their policies and practices. The Agile Manifesto (AM) outlines 12 core principles for guiding software development but can also be applied in other contexts.

“Autonomous Shipping: Ship Fuel Consumption Prediction with Machine Learning”
Marine transport is a primary facilitator of global trade but is increasingly being pushed to reduce fuel usage on economic and environmental bases. Accurate prediction of ship fuel consumption can potentially optimize operating performance, make sustainable operations feasible, and support regulatory compliance.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Metal contamination in estuarine environments poses environmental and public health concerns, particularly where surface waters support domestic and subsistence uses. This study assessed the seasonal distribution, controlling mechanisms, and non‐carcinogenic health risks of selected metals (Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Mn, and Zn) in the Buffalo River ...

Cities Under Pressure: Evidence on Tourism Growth and Neighbourhood Change in Europe
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Across European cities, the rapid growth of tourism is reshaping urban life in increasingly contested ways. While the sector continues to support local economies, it is also increasingly associated with the sense that neighbourhoods are becoming less liveable for residents.
