Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Estimating the Application Rate of Liquid Chloride Products Based on Residual Salt Concentration on Pavement [PDF]
, 2018 This technical report summarizes the results of laboratory testing on asphalt and concrete pavement. A known quantity of salt brine was applied as an anti-icer, followed by snow application, traffic simulation, and mechanical snow removal via simulated ...

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Contact lenses (CLs) are increasingly used worldwide for refractive error correction because of their optical, cosmetic, and functional advantages over spectacles. However, although their safe and effective use depends on adequate knowledge and proper hygiene practices, there is limited evidence on contact lens‐related knowledge ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nonstructural components (NSCs) installed in large‐span reticular structures were frequently severely damaged during earthquakes, even when the primary structure remained intact. Existing seismic design specifications for NSCs were predominantly developed for upright structures such as multi‐storey buildings and offer no guidance for reticular

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, which are essential for renewable energy systems, are vulnerable to partial shading, resulting in considerable power losses and operational inefficiencies. The dynamic reconfiguration of PV arrays has become an effective strategy to mitigate these effects by adaptively modifying the array topology to ...
