A novel circumscription and classification for Neurolaeneae (Asteraceae)
TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Neurolaeneae (Asteraceae) have a complicated taxonomic history. The tribe was described in 1927, but subsequently disregarded in 1977, and later reinstated as a tribe following a large‐scale phylogenetic analysis of Asteraceae in 2002. To date, this tribe has remained poorly studied and it has never been the subject of a comprehensive ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.We characterized and compared the bacterial community within intertidal and supratidal cyanobacterial mats from barrier islands in North Carolina across small horizontal and vertical spatial scales. We found that vertical layers within these stratified mats varied in their community composition and diversity together with nutrients and isotopic ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Monitoring live and stranded cetaceans can be expensive and logistically challenging, resulting in knowledge gaps. Very high‐resolution (VHR) optical satellites are considered a potential solution to addressing some of these gaps. Despite success at detecting live and stranded cetaceans, satellites have only been trialed on restricted ...

Spectral Analysis of Flickering Gamma‐Ray Flashes Observed During the ALOFT 2023 Campaign
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.Abstract We examine a newly discovered category of high‐energy radiation events called flickering gamma‐ray flashes (FGF) detected during the airborne lightning observatory for FEGS and TGFs campaign in July 2023. These FGFs are characterized by highly pulsating gamma‐ray emissions that have no detectable concurrent optical or radio signals (Ostgaard ...

Food, Affluence and the Consumption Basket*
Economic Papers: A journal of applied economics and policy, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 323-368, December 2025.There are significant disparities across nations in incomes and spending. For example, consumers in the poorest countries spend more than half of their income on food, while in the richest, this is one‐tenth or less. We use data from the International Comparison Program for 176 countries to estimate cross‐country demand equations focusing on food and ...
