Title: Longitudinal Agent-Based Simulation of Beach Nourishment Volumes Under Alternating Storm Seasons During Seasonal Transitions

Abstract:Nourishment sized from long-term averages understates episodic losses after clustered storms. Shoreline models show delayed post-storm top-ups reduce net retreat more than single large placements.

Title: Field-Based Microclimate Mapping of Urban Pocket Parks for Heat-Island Mitigation in Emerging Economies

Abstract:Small parks are promoted for amenity value, yet cooling contribution is rarely quantified. Dense logger grids show evening temperature reductions scale with continuous leaf area more than ornamental design alone.

Title: Data-Driven Metagenomic Insights Into Rhizosphere Microbiomes Under Cover Crop Diversification Across Heterogeneous Landscapes

Abstract:Cover crop mixtures are promoted for disease suppression, yet microbiome responses remain poorly resolved. We sequence rhizosphere communities across monoculture and multi-species covers and link taxa to enzyme activities. Diversified covers enrich nitrogen-cycling guilds.

Title: Multiscale Open Educational Resources Adoption Barriers Among Mid-Career University Lecturers for Decision Support

Abstract:OER policies stall when mid-career lecturers lack time to adapt materials. Workload, quality uncertainty, and promotion incentives dominate barriers; adaptation grants and peer review raise reuse more than mandates alone.

Title: Integrated Machine Learning Forecasts of Urban Heat Stress From Sparse Sensor Networks Under Resource Constraints

Abstract:Sparse municipal sensor grids leave gaps in neighborhood heat-risk maps. We train gradient-boosting models on fused logger and satellite land-surface temperature and validate against pedestrian thermal-comfort walks. Forecast skill improves when street canyon geometry and tree canopy are included as features.

Title: Empirical Digital Twin Prototypes for Predictive Maintenance of Municipal Water Pumps

Abstract:Pump failures cascade into service outages when inspections are calendar-based. Digital twins fed by vibration and pressure streams prioritize interventions before catastrophic seal failures.

Title: Comparative Spectral Indices for Early Detection of Nitrogen Deficiency in Mixed Grass Swards With Uncertainty Quantification

Abstract:Mixed swards obscure early nitrogen stress when greenness metrics average across species. Red-edge ratios from handheld spectrometers detect deficiency earlier than NDVI alone.

Title: Comparative LCA of Modular Timber Versus Concrete Mid-Rise Housing Prototypes Using Open Data Streams

Abstract:Cities pursue low-carbon housing without clear embodied-carbon trade-offs. Cradle-to-gate LCA of modular timber and concrete prototypes highlights scenarios where timber advantages reverse.

Title: Regional Hyperspectral Early Warning of Powdery Mildew in Greenhouse Cucumber During Seasonal Transitions

Abstract:Powdery mildew often becomes visible only after yield is already reduced. Hyperspectral leaf scans under contrasting LED recipes detect pre-symptomatic changes earlier than RGB scouting.

Title: Experimental Mobile Eye-Tracking of Visual Attention in Museum Exhibit Redesigns in Emerging Economies

Abstract:Exhibit redesigns claim clearer narratives without measuring attention. Mobile eye-tracking before and after redesign shows dwell-time shifts toward intended interpretive nodes.
