Nitrogen use efficiency thresholds for rice in Bangladesh: Evidence from large-scale farmer-managed field data

Background Nitrogen (N) over-application in smallholder rice systems reduces fertiliser-use efficiency and may increase reactive N losses and greenhouse gas emissions. However, field-scale nitrogen-use efficiency benchmarks derived from farmer-managed systems in South Asia remain...

Emerging non-invasive tools for hair follicle assessment: a narrative review on hyperspectral and terahertz imaging

Hair loss, though often dismissed as cosmetic, reflects complex vascular, metabolic, structural, and inflammatory changes within the scalp microenvironment. Conventional diagnostic tools such as visual inspection, dermoscopy, trichoscopy, and biopsy remain limited in their abilit...

Abstract Marginalized urban communities are affected by both high levels of violence and pervasive police presence. This qualitative study examined the dual burden of violence and over-policing, which contributes to hypervigilance and stress among community members. To explore th...

Detection of Kankra (Bruguiera gymnorhiza) tree expansion in the northern Sundarbans

Mangroves are vulnerable to environmental changes, which can shift in the dominant species composition across ecological zones. This research aims to develop an object-based image analysis (OBIA) methodology combining Landsat imagery with very high spatial resolution reference im...

The employee engagement pandemic – why we need “5.0”

Purpose The purposes of this paper are (a) to associate poor workplace health and organizational performance as functions of inferior employee engagement, (b) to present and promote all of the “5.0” initiatives as our best, and perhaps final, hope of redirecting organizational at...
