Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.

Unusual vertical oscillations of a radiosonde
Weather, EarlyView.In summer 2023 in southern England, several unusual balloon launches were observed which descended for a few minutes before resuming ascent. This unusual vertical oscillation was repeated several times in a ‘roller‐coaster’‐like pattern. This article discusses the behaviour of the balloons.

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?
Weather, EarlyView.Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

The 2026 cold wave brought northern Fennoscandia its coldest 2‐week period since 1987
Weather, EarlyView.During late December 2025 and January 2026, a severe and long‐lasting cold wave affected northern Fennoscandia. In this article, we aim to quantify the extremity of the 2026 cold wave and evaluate the atmospheric conditions that led to the persistent cold anomalies.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...

Habitat selection of moose in Sweden in managed boreal forests with Pinus contorta and P. sylvestris
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Human land use can take advantage of using exotic species to increase financial benefits. However, the use of exotic tree species might affect ecosystem functioning, potentially including the habitat use and movement behaviour of animals, modifying their ecological impact, and interactions with human land use.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The fundamental niche of an organism is regulated partially by its ability to cope with a range of thermal environments, which can be directly influenced by management across spatial scales and seasons. However, despite winter weather being a major source of mortality for many species in northern latitudes, the impact of thermal conditions on wintering

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We developed a web GIS system that delivers geospatial data for Wyoming and the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) using cloud‐optimized formats and open‐source tools to support regional ecological research and management. Using pronghorn as an example, we combined observed locations with environmental covariates from our geospatial library to map ...
