ABSTRACT The spatial scale at which temporal change in a population is measured has the potential to skew the inferences drawn on patterns of change from monitoring data. This study analysed data from rod catches of anadromous sea trout ( Salmo trutta ) in Scotland over 72 years...

On an Invariant Ratio Involving Prime Gaps and Odd Components of Twin Primes
We introduce an algebraic sequence transformation based on the 2-adic factorization of prime gaps (g_n) into their power-of-two and odd components, anchoring our formulation on the classical, universally accepted OEIS integer sequences A007814 (binary valuation, exponent k) and A...

Why do timestamps drift between a device and a PC? This article explains it from the mechanics of the Windows Time service (w32time): the default behavior in domain hierarchies and workgroups, diagnosis with the w32tm commands, the caveats around high-accuracy time and virtual ma...

The Breathing Universe: 711_Future Causal Reachability in a Horizon-Regulated Cosmology
The future causal accessibility of an expanding universe is determined by the remaining future conformal interval rather than by the instantaneous Hubble radius. In a spatially flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker spacetime, the maximum remaining comoving null distance is chi...

OpenHarmony and HarmonyOS are not the same thing. This article works systematically through the relationship between the open source OS run by the OpenAtom Foundation, Huawei's commercial OS, and HarmonyOS NEXT onwards with its Android compatibility removed — all based on primary...

The hunger games: procurement strategies under unmitigable supplier dominance
Purpose Most procurement research assumes that buyers possess negotiation power and viable alternatives. However, such assumptions do not hold in practice, as buyers in many industries operate under unmitigable supplier dominance. Against this backdrop, we examine how weaker buye...

The spatial modulation and dynamic self-confinement of intersecting electromagnetic fields present a complex challenge in macroscopic electrodynamics. This work introduces the Localized Intrinsic Field Equilibrium (LIFE) framework, which models these interactions through a determ...

AI models as consciousness attributors: how LLMs ascribe consciousness to other agents
Research on AI consciousness has largely focused on whether AI systems are conscious and how humans attribute consciousness to them. Yet large language models (LLMs) increasingly function as consciousness attributors, generating judgments about whether and to what degree other en...

The 44 Ladder: chemical-family recurrence in a mass-number arrangement of stable nuclides
The periodic table has a mass scale it does not print. A middle row costs about 44 mass units: it spans 18 protons, each adding roughly two and a half units along the valley of stability. The interval was noticed before it was explained. Arranging the 253 nuclides marked stable i...

Integrated Freight Train Rescheduling and Dynamic Railcar Flow Rerouting Under Unexpected Events
Railroad daily operations can be significantly disrupted by unforeseen events such as adverse weather conditions and train accidents. These events often result in delays in delivering shipments on time. Therefore, studying how to reschedule freight trains during emergencies is es...

Reframing trauma recovery for public health: introducing the recovery assemblage framework
Psychological trauma represents a major global health challenge, with adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) contributing to long-term difficulties in mental and physical health, relationships, and wellbeing. Despite this, dominant models of trauma recovery are largely grounded in...

BACKGROUND: Whether diffusion‑weighted imaging infarction patterns influence the efficacy and safety of early oral ticagrelor‑aspirin with intravenous thrombolysis in moderate acute ischemic stroke is uncertain. We assessed treatment effects by infarction pattern in this thrombol...

Re-thinking school leadership: towards an ethic of education and care
A global policy consensus asserts that school leaders should focus on improving teaching and learning. Previous studies of school principalship reveal processes of work intensification, with leaders working long hours and facing increased pressures. Meanwhile, in a context of glo...

Abstract High-temperature (HT) treatments above 100 °C are important in food processing; however, their effects on the nutritional value of moist heat-treated proteins are less understood. Therefore, this study examined the impact of HT at 121 °C on soy protein isolate (SPI) in w...

This qualitative narrative study explores how adults with lived experience of mental health difficulties draw on spirituality to make meaning and support recovery. Thirty participants were interviewed and asked to share their stories of spirituality, mental health and recovery. A...

ABSTRACT Whether and why social processes support global HRM integration is an overlooked, yet increasingly relevant performance question in decentralized transnational work environments. Using social capital theory, we conceptualize the social dynamic and behaviors influencing g...

Applying a systemic approach that extends beyond the brain to Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis
Traditional dementia research often isolates single aspects, biomarkers or symptoms, overlooking complex interactions shaping disease risk and progression. Lysosomal and mitochondrial dysfunction, reflecting systemic processes, may explain links between Alzheimer’s and metabolic,...

For nearly a century, flotation kinetics has relied on deterministic first-order rate equations treating the cell as a homogeneous reactor, a paradigm that inherently fails for heterogeneous ores, especially coal, whose organic macerals, porosity, and oxidation susceptibility def...

The Tibetan Plateau (TP) plays a crucial role in the Asian hydrological cycle, yet the dominant moisture sources and their governing physical processes remain debated. Here, we employ the Eulerian water tracer technique embedded in Community Earth System Model version 1 (CESM1),...
