Financial Inclusion for Smallholders: Integrating a Resource Nexus Approach Into Agricultural Finance Systems

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers remain structurally excluded from the current agricultural finance system. Existing research in this area examines financial inclusion through fragmented environmental, social, and economic lenses, limiting system‐level understanding.

Artificial Intelligence for Blue Transformation: A Review of Predictive Modeling and Decision Support Systems in Sustainable Aquaculture

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The FAO's “blue transformation” roadmap necessitates a fundamental shift towards precision aquaculture to meet global food security targets while minimizing environmental footprints. This review provides a comprehensive overview of how artificial intelligence (AI) and decision support systems (DSS) serve as pivotal enablers for the “better ...

Adaptive Metafilm With Scalable Phase‐Tunable Emissivity for Energy‐Efficient Thermal Management

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient thermal management of enclosed systems through controlled manipulation of radiative cooling power represents a key functionality of adaptive composite metamaterials. Such materials enable precise regulation of heat emission under varying environmental conditions while maintaining scalability and durability.

More Photocatalysis With Less Light in Polar Semiconductors—The Role of Pyroelectric Fields

Small, EarlyView.
The work demonstrates that the modulated solar irradiation enhances the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange on BaTiO3 despite reducing the photon flux by about 50%, resulting in a net overcompensation of catalytic efficiency. The effect arises from pyroelectric polarization near the phase transition, triggered by infrared heating of water ...

Unraveling Structure‐Dependent Performance of Cu–N–C Molecular Catalysts for Electrocatalytic CO2 Methanation

Small, EarlyView.
Copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and copper tetraphenylporphyrin (CuPr) both contain Cu–N4 sites, yet CuPc shows superior CO2‐to‐CH4 selectivity. Further analysis suggests that the Pc‐macrocycle tunes the electronic structure of Cu center and induces charge transfer, possibly via its π‐conjugated Pc‐ring and bridge‐N environment.

Concurrent tunable structural color, luminescence, and afterglow in single ZnS: X@SiO2 spheres via SiO2‐nanoarmor and calcination decoupling collaborative strategy

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
For the first time, tunable structural color, luminescence, and afterglow are integrated into single ZnS:X@SiO2 spheres via a SiO2‐nanoarmor and calcination decoupling strategy, achieving 250–410 nm monodisperse wurtzite spheres with 91% phase conversion, 12.8% PLQY, and 12.27 s afterglow. Abstract The integration of structural color, photoluminescence,

Smart card approach for secure data communication

, 2011
With the introduction of internet technology, e-trade, voice and video transfer and social networks are increasingly becoming widespread. Thanks to these technologies, people can do their jobs in a virtual environment non-spatially and rapidly. However, the security of the data people share using these technologies is serious concern.

Reconciling Goffman and Disability Studies: “Interactional” and “Structural” Stigma in the Lives of Parents of Learning‐Disabled Adults

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Erving Goffman cuts a divisive figure in disability studies. Some criticize his conception of “stigma” as deviance‐focused and as ignoring structural forces that shape personal encounters. Others praise his recognition of stigma as an interactional phenomenon.

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.
