Query:
What do you recommend for PDF reading that allows highlighting and annotation -- for a PC? Yes, I'm an old fogey and have relied on pen-and-ink until now. And yes, it's probably time to move digital. But no, the Adobe world is NOT an answer. And cloud-services are a no-go; I'm on rural internet
Suggestions?

I’m glad to share my paper on publication activity and migration trends of Ukrainian SSH scholars during the first two years of the full-scale war.
👉 https://www.jscires.org/article/15/1/124
The key finding: the most productive researchers have largely remained in #Ukraine and many have maintained or even increased their publication activity, despite the challenges.

Farmers, scientists aim to manage risks of nitrogen fertilizer
Researchers at the University of Regina and the University of Saskatchewan tested the urea fertilizer, which helps feed two-thirds of the global population. After adding it to farm ponds, they found the product degraded water quality and is a widespread threat to freshwater sources.

I was astonished by the dynamism of this observatory: new domes, new #instruments, new projects and new buildings. #Research in #astronomy in the metropolitan #France is performing like a charm.
