Renewable Energy Output Uncertainty and Risk Transmission in Sustainable Power Supply Chains
Uncertainty in renewable energy output changes how risk is allocated among generators and electricity retailers. We develop a mean–variance model with a thermal plant, a green plant, and a retailer under retailer-led Stackelberg and generation-side Cournot arrangements. In the St...

Message in a bottleneck: Nested founder effects from French Polynesia to Rapa Nui and Hawaiʻi
Founder effects can lead to strong, population-specific allele frequency differentiation, including autosomal recessive conditions. Their characterization in European-descent groups, such as the Finnish and Amish, has resulted in actionable genetic tests for each. We show that Po...

Within‐Sector Job Mobility and Worker Outcomes in England's Adult Social Care Sector
ABSTRACT England's adult social care sector faces persistently high staff turnover. This article examines the effects of individual‐level within‐sector job mobility on hourly pay and working hours and identifies the employer types and contractual arrangements that attract such mo...

Deep whole genome sequencing of epileptogenic brain lesions
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development and low‐grade epilepsy‐associated tumors often cause drug‐resistant lesional focal epilepsy (LFE) amenable to surgical treatment. Genetic testing of resected brain tissue can provide diagnostic and mechanistic information a...

The unintended effect of monetary incentives on shirking in manufacturer–reseller relationships
Purpose This study investigates how temporal changes in manufacturer monetary incentives influence reseller behavior within manufacturer–reseller relationships. We theorize, using agency theory, and examine empirically how the manufacturer's incentive changes have complex and uni...

PALM-Traffic 2.0: Implementation of the traffic-induced heat and velocity in the PALM model system
Abstract. The new Traffic model has been developed and integrated into the PALM model system 26.10. Using data typically available for traffic emission modelling, it adds the parameterised impacts of car-induced heat and air flow on modelled tendencies of potential temperature an...

Sex-dependent DNA methylation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) shows well-established sex differences in incidence, age at onset and progression, but their biological basis is unclear. We hypothesised that the DNA methylation changes associated with ALS differ between the sexes, which would point to sex-sp...

Viewpoint: the M-I-T-I framework for practice theory informed social marketing intervention
Purpose This viewpoint seeks to illuminate the utility of practice theory informed design in social marketing intervention development. It introduces the M-I-T-I framework (a four-stage approach comprising practice Mapping, insight Iteration, knowledge Transfer and co-created Int...

MOCA: A Hierarchical Semantic-Enhanced Code Edit Framework for Multilingual Code Co-Evolution
Multilingual code co-evolution aims to propagate code edits across programming languages while preserving functional consistency, yet the task remains challenging in real-world repositories. Our motivating examples reveal two key challenges: (1) Existing models fail to infer the...

‘I’m flying, not falling’: Sensory Sleep Events Following a Fall from Height
Hypnagogic and hypnopompic (H&H) events are sleep phenomena which occur at the borders of consciousness between falling asleep and beginning to wake. There is limited qualitative exploration of the nature of these experiences, and no studies have yet been conducted specifically w...

Transferability of transcriptome-based gene-dependency models from two-dimensional cancer models to organoids remains uncertain. Expression-only Elastic Net models for 20 preselected genes were selected using patient-grouped nested cross-validation in 681 models and evaluated in...

Background In order to decarbonize the European industry at an affordable cost, it is necessary to reuse part of the existing natural gas transmission pipeline infrastructure for hydrogen transport. Before doing so, the compatibility of the different types of carbon steels used f...

Spatial variation shapes gut microbiome composition and functional potential in an Afrotropical fish
Abstract Host-associated microbiomes are shaped by environmental heterogeneity across spatial gradients. However, the extent to which site-level variation structures gut microbial communities in Afrotropical fishes remains poorly resolved. In this study, we employed high-throughp...

Abstract Dynamic self-consistent field theory (DSCFT) provides an efficient continuum framework for studying structure formation in inhomogeneous polymer systems, but its predictive accuracy depends on the choice of nonlocal mobilities. Here, we construct mobility functions for m...

Background: Universal Credit (UC) is the UK’s largest recent welfare reform intended to streamline the benefits system and improve work incentives. However, UC features, including sanctions and work-related conditionality, may undermine financial security and harm mental health....
