Host Plant Odour and Sex Pheromone are Integral to Mate Finding in Codling Moth
Authors: Erdei Anna Laura , Sousa Maria , Gonzalez Francisco , Bengtsson Marie , Witzgall Peter 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The great diversity of specialist plant-feeding insects suggests that host plant shifts may initiate speciation, even without geographic barriers. Pheromones and kairomones mediate sexual communication and host choice, and the response to these behaviour-modifying chemicals is under sexual and natural selection, respectively. The concept that the interaction of mate signals and habitat cues facilitates reproductive isolation and ecological speciation is well established, while the traits and the underlying sensory mechanisms remain unknown. The larva of codling moth feeds in apple and other rosaceous fruits. We show for the first time that the response of male moths to female sex pheromone codlemone relies upon presence of pear ester, a kairomone emitted by host fruit. In the non-host tree birch, attraction to pheromone alone is very strongly reduced, but is fully rescued by blending pheromone with kairomone. This affords a mechanism how host plant shifts shape new mate-finding signals that can give rise to assortative mating and reproductive isolation.
Green Infrastructure and Urban Flooding: A Survey of Prevailing Issues and Current Modelling Approaches
Authors: Ali Liaqat , Gato-Trinidad Shirley , Imteaz Monzur 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Green Infrastructure (GI) is gaining attention in urban flood management for its ability to reduce peak flow and volume while providing multiple urban and environmental benefits. Climate change and urbanization intensify GI development needs but also amplify design, management, and performance challenges for local governments and stakeholders. Understanding the complex challenges of implementing GI is essential for advancing sustainable urban water management in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). Previous studies have often focused on specific components of GI systems, but this research provides the first comprehensive work covering it from pre-design to post-installation—of GI implementation in metropolitan Melbourne. Through a targeted survey of local councils and water consultancies, our study bridges the gap between theoretical design and practical application. By incorporating practitioners’ real-world experiences alongside technical modelling challenges, we reveal how factors like limited real-time data and regional parameterization can affect GI performance. Our approach uniquely examines interlinked obstacles, from financial constraints to maintenance protocols, giving decision-makers valuable insights to enhance GI project outcomes. This research addresses critical knowledge gaps, such as the need for community engagement and tailored technical expertise, providing actionable solutions for improving GI planning, implementation, and sustainability. Our findings offer a practical framework for future GI initiatives, helping practitioners pre-emptively tackle challenges, optimize resource use, and establish a resilient urban infrastructure that supports clean water access, sustainable urban growth, and climate adaptation.
Recycling of Tantalum Capacitors Via Sulfide Chemistry
Authors: Boury Charles , Allanore Antoine 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The fabrication of tantalum capacitors represents more than 35 pct of the total consumption of metallic tantalum with an increasing demand for the high-technology sector. Tantalum capacitors contain a large concentration of tantalum, and the absence of niobium leads to interesting economic outcomes for potential recycling processes. The article discusses such recycling using sulfur, where an AB2O6 crystal structure analogous to the orthorhombic columbite-tantalite series is sulfidized. Sulfide affinities differences between A (Mn, Fe) and B (Nb, Ta) effectively separate the ternary oxide, capitalizing on the distinct chemical properties between A and B elements, in the absence of fluoridic acids. To bypass the fluoride-based chemistry process entirely, a proof of concept of tantalum disulfide (TaS2) production via sulfidation of Ta2O5 and its subsequent metallic reduction via molten sulfide electrolysis are also presented.
Exploring Gendered Perspectives on Personality Traits and Entrepreneurial Performance in Lebanon during the COVID-19 Crisis
Authors: Youssef Moustafa Haj , Sayour Nagham 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We investigate the impact of gendered personality traits on the entrepreneurial performance of male and female entrepreneurs in Lebanon during the COVID-19 crisis. Using the Big Five personality model and survey data from 500 entrepreneurs, the research examines how traits such as agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, extraversion, and openness to experience influence business outcomes in high-pressure environments. The findings reveal that agreeableness and neuroticism benefit female entrepreneurs more than males during crises, while conscientiousness significantly deteriorates the financial performance of female entrepreneurs. Extraversion and openness exhibit no differential effects on financial performance by gender. By examining the interplay between gendered personality traits and entrepreneurial performance within the unique context of Lebanon during the COVID-19 pandemic, this study contributes novel insights to the literature. It challenges traditional views on gendered advantages in entrepreneurship, particularly by highlighting the underexplored positive implications of neuroticism and the nuanced role of agreeableness. These findings provide actionable insights for policymakers and support organisations. Specifically, fostering relational skills such as agreeableness and leveraging neuroticism’s sensitivity for proactive crisis management can enhance entrepreneurial resilience. Additionally, training programmes aimed at addressing the rigidity associated with conscientiousness can help entrepreneurs adapt more effectively to volatile environments. By tailoring interventions to gender-specific personality dynamics, these insights can strengthen entrepreneurial ecosystems and improve resilience in times of uncertainty.
Effect of terahertz radiation on cells and cellular structures
Authors: Rytik A. P. , Tuchin V. V. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The paper presents the results of modern research on the effects of electromagnetic terahertz radiation in the frequency range 0.5–100 THz at different levels of power density and exposure time on the viability of normal and cancer cells. As an accompanying tool for monitoring the effect of radiation on biological cells and tissues, spectroscopic research methods in the terahertz frequency range are described, and attention is focused on the possibility of using the spectra of interstitial water as a marker of pathological processes. The problem of the safety of terahertz radiation for the human body from the point of view of its effect on the structures and systems of biological cells is also considered.

Lie Subalgebras, Solutions and Conserved Vectors of a Nonlinear Geophysical Korteweg de Vries Equation in Ocean Physics and Nonlinear Mechanics with Power Law
Authors: Adeyemo Oke Davies 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Ocean physics describes the way the ocean surface layer interacts with the atmosphere and extends to the transmission of energy from ocean waves and tides to the seafloor. Hence, for the first time, this article explores the analytical study of a generalized geophysical Korteweg-de Vries equation found in ocean physics with power-law nonlinearity. The model is analyzed using the Lie group theory that ensures mapping of the existing solutions to other solutions. Initially, the calculation of the associated Lie algebra for the model is carried out in a systematic manner, after which one parameter transformation group for the algebra is derived. Besides, a one-dimensional optimal system of subalgebra is derived in a procedural manner. Sequel to this, the subalgebras and combination of the achieved symmetries are invoked in the reduction process, culminating in generating nonlinear ordinary differential equations associated with the model under study. In consequence, analytic soliton solutions, including non-topological soliton solutions and general periodic function solutions of note, in the structure of Weierstrass elliptic and Jacobi elliptic functions are obtained for the model. One of the interesting results also includes an implicit hypergeometric function solution. Additionally, numerical simulations are utilized to develop a basic understanding of the physical phenomena described by the model in ocean physics. Ultimately, conserved vectors are determined for the model by applying Ibragimov’s theorem together with Noether’s theorem.
Comparing extraction conditions for favorable yield of lutein and zeaxanthin from distiller’s grains
Authors: Aicher Emily , Engelberth Abigail S. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Sustainable manufacturing practices have become requisite to stretch resources and increase process efficiency. Repurposing waste is a critical strategy to increase sustainability. In bioethanol production, distiller’s grains are a low-value byproduct stream that typically become animal feed. However, corn – and thus distiller’s grains – contains notable levels of lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoids thought to play a role in maintaining eye health. There is potential to recover additional value from distiller’s grains while repurposing a low-value stream. Conditions to recover lutein and zeaxanthin from either wet distiller’s grains and solubles (WDGS) or dried distiller’s grains and solubles (DDGS) using Soxhlet extraction were investigated and statistically analyzed. Extraction solvent, solid loading, and material type were varied, and the resins were processed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to determine the carotenoid content for each condition. The factors causing the greatest changes in yield per gram of sample dry mass were material type (DDGS resulted in a 26% greater yield as compared to WDGS) and solvent (yield with ethanol was 231% greater than with ethyl acetate). Similarly, only material, solvent, and the material × solvent interaction were significant in determining yield (α = 0.05). Solid loading produced only marginal changes in yield per gram of dry mass. Investigating mixing ratios and particle sizes of distiller’s grains, as well as scalable extraction techniques, are the next steps in developing an industrial method of lutein and zeaxanthin recovery.

Multiplatform ecosystems of professional learning: The case of the #CharlasEducativas
Authors: Carpenter Jeffrey P. , Mosquera-Gende Ingrid , Marcelo-Martínez Paula 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Self-directed educator professional learning is commonplace, and such activities increasingly span multiple digital spaces and formats, and blur boundaries between online and offline. In this exploratory research, we analyze the case of the #CharlasEducativas, a dynamic professional learning ecosystem that began in 2020 and is based in Spain. We describe the platforms, modalities, and activities that comprised the #CharlasEducativas from 2020–2023, and how these different elements combine to create a multiplatform learning ecosystem. Relying upon multiple data sources, we also analyze the topics and content associated with various components of this unique ecosystem, and share participant perceptions of the #CharlasEducativas. Although the ecosystem was first developed relying mostly on YouTube and X/Twitter, the #CharlasEducativas have evolved over time to include additional platforms, and even in-person events, with different spaces functioning in overlapping and distinct ways. These spaces have been employed in synchronous and asynchronous ways, using text, images, voice, and visuals to discuss and share information on a wide array of education topics. Many participants reported perceiving the #CharlasEducativas as a space of learning and community building, and credited this learning and community with sparking reflection upon and changes in their own teaching practices. We discuss how the #CharlasEducativas reflect opportunities and challenges of contemporary educator professional learning in the context of ubiquitous social media platforms. Finally, we define implications for research and practice, highlighting the need to advance understanding of educators’ multiplatform professional learning activities.
An Ancillary Effect of Patient Navigation Following Detox: Fewer Arrests
Authors: Rosenman Robert , Noonan Carolyn , Muller Clemma , Maclehose Rich , Trojan Jodi , Poole Erin , Manson Spero M. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractPatient navigation (PN) is increasingly used to help people overcome barriers to accessing health care. In a recent trial, PN was added to motivational interviewing (MI) to help patients discharged from detoxification (detox) transition to follow-up care. The goal was to test whether PN in addition to MI increased transition rates and reduced subsequent readmissions into detox compared with MI alone. Results demonstrated little evidence of a treatment effect on either of these two outcomes, but post hoc exploratory analyses showed that patients who received PN were less likely to be arrested in the year following discharge than patients who did not receive PN. In addition, the group that received PN had fewer multiple arrests resulting in a lower average number of arrests per person. These findings are hypothesis-generating and need replication for conclusive inference. Nevertheless, economic analysis indicates that PN after detox could be a cost-beneficial intervention to reduce arrests among a population at high risk for involvement in the criminal justice system.
The materialised temporality of dust: developing a biodesign methodology to spatialise time and temporalise space
Authors: Ramirez-Figueroa Carolina , Nevin Antony , Orme Campbell 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The paper uses the material and conceptual figure of dust and matter out of place to amplify more-than-human perspectives of time, to trace the changing orientations and ethos of a site. Dust contains a complex mixture of inorganic and organic material, made up of an exuberance of microbial life such as Penicillium, Aspergillus and Cladosporium and around 20 other fungal sources. We are interested in dust as a material and metaphorical device to situate and critique temporality and the way we narrate and investigate the past and future, from a non-human, microbial point of view. Dust implies residual matter, a contradiction to order often associated with dirt. It indicates something that needs to be removed, or rearranged, something that is “out of place,” an element that does not fit. Dust also indicates time and space and signals movement and life: dust hosts a medley of non-human particles and microbial communities that engage in their own worldmaking practices. The paper brings together methods of “un-cleaning” with archival research and spatial methods of 3D scanning, modelling and mapping, as an opportunity to decentre human hubris and explore the ways in which non-humans have and continue to inhabit “our” spaces.
Channels of influence in sustainable finance: A framework for conceptualizing how private actors shape the green transition
Authors: Fichtner Jan , Schairer Simon , Haufe Paula , Aguila Nicolás , Baioni Riccardo , Urban Janina , Wullweber Joscha 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Since the Paris Agreement, interest in decarbonization and sustainable finance has grown rapidly. Within the prevalent derisking regime, investment for decarbonization must come predominantly from the private sector. However, growth in ‘sustainable finance’ assets is not necessarily causing more sustainability-advancing productive investment to drive the green transition. We thus argue that sustainable finance is not exclusively about investing or providing finance, but crucially also about changing corporate practices toward greater sustainability. To shed light on how private financial actors can influence sustainability in a derisking context and to facilitate this broader research perspective on sustainable finance, we introduce the conceptual framework of ‘channels of influence’. These channels are different strategies and mechanisms used by private actors that influence the behavior of financial and non-financial corporations to increase financial flows to sustainable productive investments. We identify ten channels of influence concerning sustainable finance: (1) initial financing; (2) refinancing; (3) (re)insurance; (4) ratings; (5) climate-litigation; (6) company engagement; (7) divestment; (8) reputation; (9) coalition-building; and (10) standard-setting. These are grouped according to the specificity and breadth of their sustainability impact. Using these channels enables private actors to advance sustainability within the status quo of state-market relations and regulation.
Increasing invasive liana cover following tree mortality and containment treatments associated with a fungal pathogen
Authors: Abella Scott R. , Walters Timothy L. , Menard Karen S. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Tree-afflicting pests, such as insects and pathogens, could change forests in ways promoting invasions by non-native plants. After tree death associated with the fungal pathogen oak wilt (Bretziella fagacearum (Bretz) Z.W. de Beer, Marincowitz, T.A. Duong & M.J. Wingfield) and its attempted containment (severing root connectivity and sanitation removal of infected trees), we examined change in cover of the non-native liana Oriental bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculatus Thunb.; hereafter Celastrus) at 28 sites in temperate black oak (Quercus velutina Lam.) forests, Ohio, USA. During our five-year study spanning 2020 to 2024, Celastrus cover increased significantly (P < 0.05) through time at oak wilt sites but not in untreated reference forest sites without evidence of oak wilt. Celastrus cover increased by an order of magnitude, up to an average of 32× among oak wilt treatments up to 10 years old. By 2024, Celastrus cover ranged from 6-22% on average in 5-10-year-old oak wilt treatments, compared with 1% cover in reference forest. Results indicate that non-native plant invasion accelerated following disturbance associated with a fungal pathogen and its attempted containment, and more generally, suggest that tree-afflicting pests can promote invasive plants in forests. Co-management of tree-afflicting pests and non-native plants may become increasingly important to ensure forests recovering from tree mortality are dominated by native plants.
SUFFICIENT CONDITIONS FOR LOCAL TABULARITY OF A POLYMODAL LOGIC
Authors: SHAPIROVSKY ILYA B. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
On relational structures and on polymodal logics, we describe operations which preserve local tabularity. This provides new sufficient semantic and axiomatic conditions for local tabularity of a modal logic. The main results are the following.
We show that local tabularity does not depend on reflexivity. Namely, given a class

$\mathcal {F}$

of frames, consider the class

$\mathcal {F}^{\mathrm {r}}$

of frames, where the reflexive closure operation was applied to each relation in every frame in

$\mathcal {F}$

. We show that if the logic of

$\mathcal {F}^{\mathrm {r}}$

is locally tabular, then the logic of

$\mathcal {F}$

is locally tabular as well.
Then we consider the operation of sum on Kripke frames, where a family of frames-summands is indexed by elements of another frame. We show that if both the logic of indices and the logic of summands are locally tabular, then the logic of corresponding sums is also locally tabular.
Finally, using the previous theorem, we describe an operation on logics that preserves local tabularity: we provide a set of formulas such that the extension of the fusion of two canonical locally tabular logics with these formulas is locally tabular.
Network hub changes in the pars opercularis indicate impaired inhibition in tic disorder patients
Authors: Chi SuHyuk , Mok Young Eun , Kang June , Gim Jeong-An , Lee Moon-Soo 
Published: January 2025

Abstract

Objective:
This study aimed to utilise graph theory to explore the functional brain networks in individuals with tic disorders and to investigate resting-state functional connectivity changes in critical brain regions associated with tic disorders.

Methods:
Participants comprised individuals with tic disorders and age-matched healthy controls, ranging from 6 to 18 years old, all recruited from Korea University Guro Hospital. We ensured a medication-naïve cohort by excluding participants exposed to psychotropic medications for at least three weeks prior to the study. Data included structural and resting-state functional MRI scans, analysed with the CONN-fMRI Functional Connectivity toolbox v20b. The analysis included 22 patients (18 males, 4 females) and 26 controls (14 males, 12 females).

Results:
Significantly increased global efficiency was observed in the left inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis among tic disorder patients compared to controls. Furthermore, this region displayed enhanced resting-state functional connectivity with its right counterpart in patients versus controls.

Conclusion:
The inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis, known for its inhibitory role, may reflect adaptive functional adjustments in response to tic symptoms. Increased hubness of the inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis possibly represents functional adjustments in response to tic symptoms. The identified brain region with increased efficiency and connectivity presents a promising avenue for further research into tic expression and control mechanisms.
Chosen Glory and Chosen Trauma with Chinese Characteristics: Social Representations of History in an Authoritarian Context
Authors: Sinkkonen Elina 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
There is tension between manipulation of national identity construction and agency in the literature on ingroup identification, especially in authoritarian contexts. In China, the past is very relevant with regards to legitimacy of the Communist Party. Yet, we cannot just assume that what the state propagates is what can also be found at the bottom-up level. This article analyses social representations of history in China combining the top-down perspective of state education policies and curated historical narratives to the bottom-up perspective formed through analyzing two student surveys, collected first in 2007 and again in 2011-2012, and 11 interviews. Earlier research indicates that in most countries representations of history concentrate on negative issues and their time span is short. Chinese representations of history are divided into narratives of glory and humiliation, and respondents have a much longer perspective to national history than typical participants in international surveys. Finally, although problematic periods such as the Cultural Revolution get less coverage in political speeches and school textbooks, they are not forgotten among students. Furthermore, the view that people should have their own ideas about history and China rather than having to adopt the government promoted narrative was visible in multiple student interviews.
