The UK Clean Air Act at 70: An interdisciplinary analysis of historical air quality change

Weather, EarlyView.
2026 marks the 70th anniversary of the first UK Clean Air Act, a pivotal moment for air quality in modern British history. Previous narratives on this legislation have largely centred on pollution in London and monodisciplinary perspectives. This article integrates historical research with reconstructed estimates of PM2.5 concentrations to spotlight ...

Assessing the Influence of Interference Competition on Ecologically Similar Species Threatened by Habitat Loss 评估干扰性竞争对受栖息地丧失威胁的生态相似物种的影响

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We staged dyadic interaction trials between two kangaroo rat species threatened by habitat loss to test whether one species dominates in direct interactions in the field. We found that Stephens’ kangaroo rat (Dipodomys stephensi) residents and intruders were dominant over Dulzura kangaroo rat (Dipodomys simulans). These results suggest that D. simulans

Investigation of the Evolution Mechanism and Multiphysics Coupling in Tree‐Contact Single‐Phase‐to‐Ground Fault

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tree‐contact single‐phase‐to‐ground fault (TSF) is a common and hazardous type of failure in distribution networks. TSF is likely to occur when overhead conductors contact moist tree branches, potentially leading to insulation breakdown, posing serious threats to grid safety.

A Review and Prospect of Appearance Defect Detection Methods for High Voltage Equipment Based on Vision Large Models

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High voltage equipment, as a core component of power systems, plays an indispensable role in ensuring the reliability of power supply through its safe and stable operation. Traditional visual defect detection for high voltage equipment, however, often relies on manual inspection and experience‐based judgement, which struggles to meet the ...

Water Scarcity and Wildfire Risk

Wildfires are intrinsically linked with water supply in the American West. This report provides an overview of the policy landscape regarding water and land rights and their relation to fighting wildfires. It also aims to describe the regional disparities in water supply throughout the state of California.

Conductivity Analysis and Thermoelectric Behaviour of Larch Standing Trees Under Lightning Currents: Role of Moisture Distribution and Carrier Motion

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The direct effects of lightning strikes on forest combustibles form the foundation for predicting lightning‐induced forest fires. Accurate assessment of lightning impact is hindered by limited knowledge of the conduction characteristics of standing larch trees.

Rapid loss, and slow recovery, of coral reef structural complexity resulting from a prolonged marine heatwave

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.
