Rural Labor Supply and Economic Opportunities: Commuting, Migration, Tariffs, and Immigration

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some rural counties remain dependent on agricultural or manufacturing jobs, but an increasing proportion have diversified economics. Rural counties also differ in their abilities to commute to an urban market characterized by higher wages and labor productivity.

Uncovering Aggregation‐Induced Emission in Carbon Dots for Color‐Changing Hydrogels and Information Encryption

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Red‐emissive carbon dots (R‐CDs) exhibiting aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) and aggregation‐caused quenching (ACQ) effects are synthesized from citric acid and urea. They display weak blue fluorescence in water but strong red emission in DMF due to aggregation.

Long-Term Water Stability of Silty Soil Subgrade Modified by Nano-Superhydrophobic Material in the Lower Yellow River Region

Buildings
Water-induced deterioration of silty soil subgrade in the lower Yellow River floodplain poses a critical, long-standing engineering challenge. Most existing studies on silty soil modification prioritize strength enhancement via traditional cementitious ...

Staging an Experience of Cultural Heritage Preservation: Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Heirloom Rice in the Philippines

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cordillera Administrative Region in the Philippines is home to terraced rice embedded in centuries of cultural heritage. However, weak market incentives threaten sustained production, jeopardizing indigenous communities' cultural heritage and the in situ biodiversity of rice genetic resources.

Interaction Hierarchy and Polymorphic Structure–Property Dynamics in Luminescent Molecular Crystals

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Competing homotypic and heterotypic intermolecular interactions give rise to polymorphic structure–property dynamics in luminescent molecular crystals. Thermal and mechanical stimuli induce distinct phase‐transition pathways accompanied by pronounced photoluminescence changes.

Influences of hydro-mechanical conditions to fracturing behavior of sandstone analogs: approach and implications

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology
The compressive torsion (C-T) fractures are widely distributed in water-saturated, clay-poor, and cementation-weak Cretaceous sandstones in Western China due to asymmetric tectonic convergence.

Quantifying Consumer Tradeoffs Across Firm‐Level Strategic Positioning Dimensions: Evidence from US Craft Beer Consumers

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strategic positioning becomes increasingly important as markets mature, particularly in consumer‐facing industries that offer similar products, experiential cues, and values‐based messages. This study offers a conceptual model to examine the strategic positioning factors that motivate consumers to visit one local business over another before ...

Critical Bimetallic Phosphide Layer Enables Fast Electron Transfer and Extra Energy Supply for Flexible Quasi-Solid-State Zinc Batteries

Nano-Micro Letters
Highlights The critical bimetallic phosphide layer (CBPL) exhibits high electrical conductivity and forms heterostructures with NiCo-layered double hydroxide (NiCo-LDH), improving the electrical conductivity of the hybrid cathode (NiCo-P1.0).

Human‐in‐the‐Loop Swarms: A Bionic Swarm Approach to Real‐World Soil Mapping

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article introduces the “Bionic Swarm,” a novel system that lowers the barriers to real‐world swarm validation by abstracting difficult hardware tasks to app‐guided human agents. We demonstrate the system's utility through the experimental validation of a geotechnical soil‐mapping swarm algorithm and show superior performance to baseline approaches

Sustainable Pd‐Catalyzed Aminations “on Dirty Water”

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Aminations, done safely yet neat, and therefore, quickly, using low levels of Pd, in “dirty water” that must contain 30% KOH; not NaOH, and not at 5%,10%, 20%, 40%, or 50% KOH. Moreover, no base sensitivity of functional groups! Very cool. Thank you, Nature.
