To provide pollinator nesting habitat, cut dead perennial stems in their first winter

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Garden management practises need to consider stem‐nesting bees and wasps to avoid destroying active nests and important nesting materials. Volunteers collected samples of dead stems (in situ where they grew) in winter, spring, summer and fall as part of a participatory research project.

Bearing Capacity of a Shallow Foundation above the Soil with a Cavity Based on Rigid Plastic Finite Element Method

Applied Sciences
Based on the Rigid Plastic Finite Element Method (RPFEM), this study investigates the performance of the footing on the soil with a cavity. The RPFEM is used in plane strain conditions and necessitates only a few materials to predict the bearing capacity:

How Has France Established Itself as a Champion of the European Fight Against Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI)?

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The article contributes to the emerging scholarly literature on how European democracies respond to foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI), whilst focusing on a single case study of France. It asks how France responded to Russian FIMI and why this response has become more forceful and comprehensive over time.
