A New Thermal-Solar Field Configuration: The Rotatory Fresnel Collector or Sundial

Energies, 2021
A new type of Fresnel array has been devised and constructed as an answer to the need to reduce the investment costs of solar thermal collectors, without jeopardizing their efficiency in capturing solar radiation at high temperatures. The array of mirror

Linking Abundance and Activity of Ammonia‐Oxidising Bacteria and Archaea in an Agriculturally Impacted First‐Order Stream

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Ammonia‐oxidising archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) coexist in streambed sediments, but their contributions to nitrification remain unresolved. Using field sampling, sequencing, qPCR, microcosm incubations and modelling, we show that AOB dominated nitrification in streambed sediments despite lower abundance, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing ...

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 915-928, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge ( Q ) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom be ...

Integrative QSP Modeling of Cancer Stem Cells in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer: Impacts on Tumor Immunity and Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Cancer stem cells (CSCs) contribute to an immunosuppressive microenvironment through complex mechanisms and tumor‐immune interactions. However, the key determinants of CSC characteristics in driving tumor progression, immune suppression, and response to ICIs remain unclear and require systematic investigation.

Integrating B Cell Differentiation Model With Real‐World Data Informs Determinants for Antibody‐Secreting Cell Depletions in Systemic Sclerosis

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by extensive fibrosis, vascular abnormalities, and immune dysregulation, affecting clinical outcomes such as skin thickness and pulmonary function with high mortality rates. B cells play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of SSc. This study aimed to develop a systems model

The power of the past: materializing collective memory at early medieval lordly centres

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 34-69, February 2026.
The repurposing of earlier sites and monuments is an enduringly popular theme in early medieval archaeology, but in England it has attracted little interest among Late Saxon and early post‐Conquest studies. From the tenth century, however, an increasingly prevalent pattern is discernible of secular lords locating their power centres in relation to ...
