Building sustainable futures: The micro-foundational dynamics behind energy community ecosystem

Energy Communities (ECs) are increasingly recognized as collaborative ecosystems that support energy transition. However, existing research has predominantly explained their emergence from macro- and meso-level perspectives, offering limited insight into micro-level mechanisms. A...

Speed-Accuracy Dissociation in Fencing: Performance Fatigability Without a Detectable Decline in Touch Accuracy: An Exploratory Study

Background: It remains unclear whether physiological load affects fencing accuracy to the same extent as movement speed and whether a shortened protocol can reproduce the outcomes of a full repeated-sprint protocol. Methods: Ten fencers (foil/épée; 7 men, 3 women; 16–30 years) co...

ACTN3 Variants Beyond Performance: Metabolic and Inflammatory Implications

Background: Athletic performance is a result of interaction between genetic and environmental factors, including training, nutrition, rest, hormonal and psychophysiological status. Numerous genes and polymorphisms can influence key physiological processes, such as muscle contract...

The Financial Fragility of Complex Economies

ABSTRACT This paper provides an early warning exercise suggesting that in complex economies characterized by the production of knowledge‐intensive products, financial crises are more frequent, even after considering standard predictors of crises. I relate findings to standard con...

The Mediterranean Extreme Events Experiment and storm Harry in January 2026

Abstract The Global Observing System (GOS) includes drifting buoys with barometers whose surface pressure observations are essential for estimating the current state of the atmosphere and ocean for Numerical Weather Prediction. The Global Drifter Program, a scientific project bas...

Framing SECI model through an artificial knowledge generation perspective: a case study analysis in the GenAI era

Purpose This study aims to examine the influence of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) on the phases of knowledge creation as delineated by Nonaka’s SECI model. Furthermore, it delineates the fundamental interactions among the components of a theoretical framework for the...

The reactivation of the Niscemi landslide (southern Italy) after the Cyclone Harry

Abstract On January 25, 2026, a large compound slide affected the southern and western slopes of the Niscemi mesa (SE Sicily), causing severe damage to settlements and the evacuation of approximately 1500 people. The event occurred approximately one week after Cyclone Harry, whic...

Life‑cycle analysis of bio‑based phase change materials in recycled‑aggregate mortars: sourcing sensitivity and trade‑offs

Abstract The decarbonization of construction materials requires circular design strategies supported by life‑cycle thinking. This study quantifies the cradle‑to‑gate (A1–A3) environmental impacts of three mortar formulations: (i) a Reference mortar, (ii) a mortar incorporating re...

Digital Transformation and Environmental Pillar of ESG ‐Based Performance Under Financing Constraints: The Mediating Role of Green Innovation in Chinese Listed Firms

ABSTRACT This study builds upon existing work that links digital transformation (DT), financing constraints (FC), green innovation (GI), and firms' environmental pillar of ESG‐based performance (SP(E)), and further examines whether DT supports SP(E) through GI under FC. Based on...

Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) and Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES)-Mediated Extraction of Bioactives from Brewing By-Products: A Scoping Review for Functional Food and Sports Supplementation

The brewing industry generates substantial organic waste, prompting interest in sustainable valorization because these by-products retain significant residual nutritional and nutraceutical value. Based on these premises, this scoping review aims to evaluate whether DES- and NADES...

From climate data to user-centered climate education: Stakeholder consultation in the development of the adaptation AGORA digital academy

Climate change education and citizen engagement are essential for advancing towards a climate-resilient society, promoting institutional, regulatory and policy transformation. Informal learning tools, particularly digital environments, play a crucial role in addressing this chall...

Tree-like pairwise interaction networks

Abstract Modeling feature interactions in tabular data remains a key challenge in predictive modeling, for example, as used for insurance pricing. This paper proposes the tree-like pairwise interaction network (PIN), a novel neural network architecture that explicitly captures pa...

Rhodoglobus galactosidasius sp. nov., a psychrophilic Actinomycetota producing a cold-active β-galactosidase isolated from Cape Hallett, Antarctica

A novel psychrophilic member of the phylum Actinomycetota , designated strain CPHL_1 T , was isolated from the shoreline of Cape Hallett, Antarctica. Cells were Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile, non-spore-forming rods (0.7–1.0 µm in length) with orange to yellow pigmentation. O...

Shaping circular disclosure capital? Intellectual capital and DEI disclosure maturity in SMEs

Purpose This study aims to examine how the human, structural and relational dimensions of Circular Intellectual Capital (CIC) contribute to the development of Circular Disclosure Capital (CDC), conceptualized as a domain-specific organizational disclosure capability enabling firm...

Nutrition, Sedentary Behaviour and Physical Activity in Undergraduate Students: A Scoping Review with PRISMA-ScR Checklist

Background/Objectives: University students are particularly vulnerable to unhealthy lifestyle behaviours, including poor dietary habits, insufficient physical activity, and prolonged sedentary time. While these three behaviours have each been extensively studied individually, the...

Elastic buckling analysis of platings with torsionally and warping restrained supports by truncated series expansion applied to a hierarchical trigonometric function set

The paper provides a new framework for the elastic buckling analysis of platings under linearly varying uniaxial loads, with torsionally and warping restrained longitudinal supports. The new method, based on the employment of a hierarchical trigonometric function set, allows anal...

When Stakeholder Pressure Meets Green: Explaining Sustainable Supply Chain Management Adoption in a Late EU ‐Accession Economy

ABSTRACT Recent regulations have introduced unprecedented mandatory sustainability requirements for EU companies, with significant implications for firms embedded in supply chains. These requirements increasingly affect not only large companies but also small and medium‐sized ent...

Environmental Transparency Through Digital Transformation: Evidence on Carbon Disclosure Quality From China's Heavy‐Polluting Firms

ABSTRACT The rise of digital transformation (DT) has become an important driver of transparency in corporate environmental disclosure. Whether and how DT is related to the improvement of carbon information disclosure quality, particularly in heavily polluting firms that may have...

Multi-scale experimental and numerical analysis of thermal conductivity improvements in metal hydride composite systems

The inherently low thermal conductivity of metal hydrides significantly hinders heat transfer and, consequently, the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption processes. To address this limitation, strategies such as adding high-thermal-conductivity materials have been explo...

Integrating Circular Economy and Regenerative Agricultural Practices on Farms in a Developing Country Context

ABSTRACT The current state of agricultural production is characterised by a linear model of production and consumption, which has led to negative environmental consequences. In Argentina, the agricultural sector plays a crucial role in the economy, particularly in the Pampas regi...
