The unexplained results could enhance future efforts to study out-of-body experiences, researchers say.

An international team of scientists featuring faculty at Binghamton University has recreated a 1,000-year timeline documenting the ecological changes and human impact to the area surrounding Crawford Lake, the famed location of the proposed Anthropocene.

A Pusan National University study reveals that equivalence scales used to adjust household income requirements for public transfers should not be treated as one-size-fits-all. Household needs vary by composition, consumption type, and benefit objectives. Adults and children may have different income needs, while education expenditure is a key exception. Non-shareable goods require greater additional resources. The findings highlight the need to tailor equivalence scales to the specific objectives of public transfer programs.

Accurately predicting passenger flows is essential for preventing congestion and delays in subway networks. In a recent study, researchers developed a multi-time-scale model that uses recurring day-to-day and week-to-week travel patterns to predict both passenger destinations and travel times one day ahead. Tested on Shenzhen subway data, the model outperformed several widely used forecasting methods across most stations.
