Climatic Risks in South American Coastal Ecosystems: A Mixed-Methods Review

Received: 20 January 2026;  Published: 09 July 2026;  doi: 10.21926/aeer.2603019

Abstract

South America’s coastal ecosystems face increasing threats from multiple climatic stressors, including sea-level rise, ocean warming, intensifying heatwaves, shifts in ENSO patterns, ocean acidification, glacier melt, and more frequent extremes such as storms, droughts, and altered river discharges. These processes accelerate biodiversity loss, cause [...]

The Effect and Mechanisms of Risperidone and Voluntary Exercise Intervention on Hepatic Lipid Metabolism in Juvenile Female Rats

Received: 20 November 2025;  Published: 09 July 2026;  doi: 10.21926/rpn.2603013

Abstract

Risperidone is a commonly used antipsychotic drug in juveniles, but with serious metabolic side-effects. Previous evidence suggests that exercise mitigates risperidone-induced hypertriglyceridemia and adipose accumulation, yet the underlying hepatic mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, female juvenile rats were randomly assigned to four groups [...]

Pyrolysis of Discarded Chewing Gum for Acetic Acid Recovery

Received: 24 April 2026;  Published: 08 July 2026;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2603008

Abstract

Chewing gum, typically discarded indiscriminately, is a significant source of urban solid waste with waste that persist for long period. When in contact with notoriously recyclable materials, it can hinder their recycling processes due to its high post-consumer adhesion, leaving only the non-soluble phase. This gum base is commonly composed of polyvin [...]
