Detection of Molecular High Explosives in Post‐detonation Residue: Environmental Persistence of Days to Months

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
Atmospheric flow tubemass spectrometry detects trace RDX residue in soil and dust collected days to months after large explosive detonations. Post‐detonation soil samples contain detectable RDX aligned with prevailing wind direction and generally decreasing over weeks, while dust and soil samples still show picogram‐level RDX months later, providing ...

The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Acoustic–Visual Sensor Fusion for Robot Localization in Buried Pipes

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autonomous, untethered robots require robust localization algorithms to perform tasks such as inspection and monitoring in buried pipes. This task is challenging due to environmental constraints, such as the absence of a global positioning system underground and limited visual perception.

Advanced Sensing Materials and Their Applications for Power Sensors

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The construction of new‐generation power systems imposes stringent requirements on the safety and reliability of critical equipment, making accurate state perception essential for grid security and digital transformation. Sensing materials fundamentally determine sensor performance in terms of sensitivity, bandwidth, environmental adaptability

Bridging the divide between models of animal‐driven and microbial‐driven biogeochemical cycling: A zoogeochemistry‐informed framework

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Most current terrestrial biogeochemical models formalize biogeochemical cycling as predominantly controlled by processes involving plants and soil microbes. However, growing evidence indicates that above‐ground animals could exert controlling feedback effects that alter
