Machine learning in transport modeling has become a trend in science and industry. In this paper, we observe its main directions and focus on a dataset of seasonal road creation. Seasonality as a parameter in transport modeling has a significant impact on transport scenarios but is underestimated worldwide and in Russia, despite modern data challenges. ...

Soil respiration (SR) is a main component of the carbon cycle in terrestrial ecosystems,
and being strongly affected by changes in the environment, it is a good indicator of the ecosystem’s
ability to cope with climate change. This research aims to find better empirical SR models using
25-year-long SR monitoring in two forest ecosystems formed on sandy Entic ...

Urban dust nanoparticles drive inflammatory activation of human neutrophils and macrophages in vitro
Pavlyuchenkova A., Vorobjeva N., Ivaneev A. et al., Environmental Science and Pollution Research 2025 Vol. 32 P. 26541–26553
Today, the majority of the world’s population lives in urban environments, where they are constantly exposed to dust particles of varying sizes, including urban dust nanoparticles (NPs). The minute size of NPs ensures their quick and efficient penetration into inner body parts, where they can interact with many cell types, including epithelial, endothelial, and immune ...

For the first time, a variability analysis of phenological dates of woody plant development in connection with climate change was conducted for the conditions of Primorsky Krai. The study is based on a continuous (from 1987 to 2022) series of phenological observations for five tree species from the Nature Chronicle of the Sikhote-Alin Reserve. According ...

Since the end of the Little Ice Age, glacier retreat has been recorded globally, with its rates steadily increasing. Glacier forelands serve as convenient areas for studying the patterns of biotic community formation during primary succession. Collembola (hereinafter – springtails) typically play key roles in primary successions, being among the first colonists of territories newly ...

The present study focuses on greenhouse gas emissions from wastewater treatment and sewage sludge disposal at landfill. Traces of ammonium, dihydrosulfide, phenol, formaldehyde, various hydrocarbons, and mercaptans have been identified. The dynamics of these gases are especially intense during the purification process from grids to aerotanks. Methane concentrations fluctuated more than sixfold in the wastewater ...

This study analyzes agency and news values across verbal and visual modalities
in Croatian online news on the climate crisis, examining how climate change is
portrayed. We explore newsworthiness, visual framing, and metaphor, linking
agency to broader concerns about responsibility. In addition, the analysis traces
how different types of agency shape news values in both metaphorical and nonmetaphorical
micro-contexts. To ...
