Transitioning From L1 Medium of Instruction to L2 English Medium Instruction: The Role of Translanguaging in Contributing to EFL Students’ Language Learning Motivation

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on English‐Medium‐Instruction (EMI) highlights inadequate support for students transitioning from L1‐medium‐instruction to EMI. To date, little research has focused on how L2 students’ adaptation to an EMI environment influences their L2 learning motivation (LLM).

Promoting Foreign Language Enjoyment Through Displaying Affiliation in Collaborative Digital Multimodal Composing in Hong Kong ESL Classrooms: Insights From Translanguaging and Transpositioning Perspectives

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studies on classroom interactions suggest that displaying affiliation through linguistic and multimodal resources could promote positive emotions like enjoyment, thereby enhancing engagement and enthusiasm in second/foreign language learning.

AI foundation models in plant biology

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Foundation models decode genomes, engineer proteins, phenotype crops, and drive AI agents across plant biology. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/xcmmkel). Summary Rapid technological progress has enabled plant biologists to accumulate unprecedented volumes of multi‐scale, multi‐modal data, yet this abundance of data has intensified ...

Resource Substitution: Local Governments' Issue Attention and Policy Reinvention

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on policy reinvention, where a government modifies rather than replicates policy innovations introduced by other governments, has progressed significantly, but how it is influenced by the government's issue attention has not been thoroughly examined.

Ultrasound‐Driven Dual Piezocatalytic–Electrical Scaffold Synergistically Promotes Osteoporotic Bone Healing

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The regeneration of osteoporotic bone defects is severely hampered by compromised endogenous healing capacity, demanding advanced strategies that actively orchestrate pro‐osteogenic microenvironments. Here, we report an integrated, self‐powered osteo‐regenerative system that uniquely leverages a dual ultrasound‐responsive piezoelectric ...

Abnormal Phase Transition Mechanism in the CoCrAlY Bond Coat Revealed by In Situ and Ex Situ Experiments

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In Co‐based alloys, the γ phase is normally stable at high temperatures and the ε phase at low temperatures, and there is a martensitic transition on cooling to ∼417°C. In the γ/β dual‐phase CoCrAlY bond coat of turbine blade thermal barrier coating systems, we observed the opposite: γ remained stable at room temperature, yet it underwent a γ →

Defect Engineering of Carbon Frameworks Driven All‐Slope Hard Carbon Anodes for Fast‐Charging Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fast‐charging capability is one of the crucial factors determining the application prospects of sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). Nevertheless, the mismatched sodium storage kinetics and Coulombic efficiency (CE) in hard carbon anodes are bottlenecks in the implementation of fast‐charging SIBs. Herein, we propose a facile pre‐carbonization strategy

Acoustically Assisted Heterojunction Hydrogel Promotes Angiogenesis and Tissue Regeneration by Modulating the Inflammatory Microenvironment

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The healing of diabetic chronic wounds is hindered by multiple pathological barriers, including oxidative stress imbalance induced by hyperglycemia, persistent bacterial infection, and impaired neovascular function. This study developed an F127–HA–BiOCl@CeO2 (FHBC) hydrogel dressing with acoustic responsiveness, achieving tissue repair through

The Formation and Hardening Mechanisms of Multiscale Gradient Structures Tailoring by Explosive Hardening and Annealing in Commercially Pure Titanium

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Gradient structures (GS) introduced by plastic deformation have been shown to effectively enhance the surface properties of metallic materials. However, the GS fabricated by existing methods often suffers from limited hardening depth and limited control over the GS layer, which constrain their engineering applications.

Organ‐specific ozone and nitrogen legacies strengthen substrate control over litter decomposition

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2548-2559, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Elevated tropospheric ozone (O3) and nitrogen (N) deposition are concurrent atmospheric changes that strongly influence terrestrial carbon cycling, yet their combined effects on below‐ground decomposition remain poorly understood.
