Introduction Shippers may undeclare maritime dangerous goods as general cargo to avoid the preparation time, documentation burden, and freight premium associated with dangerous goods transportation, creating serious risks for vessel safety, port operations, and the marine environment. This paper examines whether blockchain-enabled documentation can mitigate such undeclaration by improving provenance information and shortening...

Insects represent the largest group of migratory animals in terms of species and biomass, yet the relative contributions of population‐associated genetic differentiation and environmental plasticity to insect migration remain unclear. Here, we integrate population genomics with common garden experiments to infer the geographic origins of immigrant populations and evaluate population‐ and developmental‐temperature‐associated va...

Cross-border maritime logistics requires coordination among carriers, ports, customs authorities, and financial institutions, yet existing workflows are often constrained by fragmented regulatory data systems, inefficient dynamic capacity matching, and slow batch-based clearing. This paper proposes B-MARCO, a blockchain-driven multi-national auction and resource optimization framework for cross-border maritime logistics. B-MAR...
