Will I love my second baby as much as my first? Prevalence and psychosocial correlates of maternal‐fetal relationship anxiety for second‐time mothers

open access: yesInfant Mental Health Journal: Infancy and Early Childhood, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 541-553, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Most mothers have more than one child. Second‐time mothers may worry about whether they will love the second baby as much as their first child. The current study examined mothers’ maternal‐fetal relationship anxiety (MFRA) to their second baby, the prediction of mother‐infant bonding (MIB) and infant‐mother attachment security post‐partum, and

Factors that shape large‐scale gradients in clonality

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 827-837, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Many plant species reproduce clonally. However, ecologists still have much to learn about the factors that shape large‐scale patterns in plant clonal growth and reproduction, especially in the southern hemisphere. We addressed this knowledge gap by quantifying relationships between reproductive mode and a suite of plant characteristics and

Epidemiological observations on pastern dermatitis in young horses and evaluation of essential fatty acid spot‐on applications with or without phytosphingosine as prophylactic treatment

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 221-e62, June 2022., 2022
Background Equine pastern dermatitis (EPD) is a common multifactorial clinical syndrome in horses. Treatment can be difficult; pathogenesis and triggering factors cannot always be determined. Objectives To assess risk factors for developing EPD in a large group of horses kept under the same conditions and to analyse whether or not a spot‐on containing ...

Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Bio‐Inspired Continuous Gradient Nanocomposites for Ultrahigh‐Temperature Dielectric Energy Storage at 150°C–200°C

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Dielectric polymers commonly suffer from severe performance degradation above 150°C, hindering advanced power systems. Herein, we demonstrate a polyetherimide (PEI) nanocomposite that overcomes this by mimicking the gradient architecture of nacre and bamboo, incorporating a continuous vertical gradient of fluorinated boron nitride nanosheets ...

Harnessing social media data to track species range shifts

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs and citizen science data remain heavily biased toward the Global North. Especially in megadiverse countries with limited biodiversity records, incorporating social media data can help address existing data gaps.

The Structural Origin of the Amorphous‐to‐Crystalline Transformation in Cu‐Zr Based Amorphous Alloy

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Amorphous alloys (AAs) possess a metastable structure from a thermodynamic perspective and tend to crystallize under external conditions, which in turn alters their material properties. To gain an in‐depth understanding of their crystallization mechanism, this study employed in situ spherical aberration‐corrected transmission electron ...

Excellent Comprehensive Electromechanical Properties in PZT‐Based Hard High‐Temperature Piezoceramics

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐power piezoelectric ceramics which have a wide operating temperature range are essential for sensor and actuator applications in extreme conditions. However, their development is fundamentally hindered by the inherent trade‐off among key parameters (TC, d33, Qm).
