A Review and Critique of Methods and Knowledge Gaps in Quantifying Spillover Effects from Protected Areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The sustainability of area‐based conservation initiatives depends on their value to society. Conservation often focuses inside protected areas, but the impacts of protected areas beyond their boundaries (spillovers) are critical for their social license.

Upcycling Spent Cu‐Containing Catalysts to CuO Humidity Sensors for Physiological Detection: Calcination Temperature Optimization

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT To achieve high‐value utilization of spent catalysts, we recovered copper (Cu) from Cu‐bearing spent catalysts via acid‐base leaching to fabricate CuO and systematically studied how calcination temperature affects their microstructure and humidity‐sensing performance. Characterizations show that CuO‐500 (calcined at 500°C) has a large specific

Manipulating RE‐O Bonds Engineered Thermal/Oxygen Transport Characteristics of Monoclinic‐Prime RETaO4 High‐Entropy Ceramics

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Multifunctional thermal protective ceramic thermal/environmental barrier coatings (T/EBCs) are of great significance for applications of various high‐temperature components, and we propose an effective strategy for designing high‐entropy ceramics (HECs) as T/EBCs for SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), where low thermal expansion ...

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

Spatiotemporal Pattern Evolution and Driving Mechanisms of World Botanical Gardens Over Five Centuries

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 255-267, September 2026.
This study presents a comprehensive review of the 500‐year spatiotemporal evolution of global botanical gardens, identifying three major development stages—initial exploration (1543–1699), steady expansion (1700–1899), and rapid proliferation (1900–2020)—with six distinct sub‐stages. We propose a tripartite driving framework grounded in colonial botany

In Situ Rare Earth Nanoparticle Reinforcement of NiCoCrAlYTa Coatings via HCPEB Modification: Insights Into Early Oxidation Behavior and Microstructural Evolution

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT NiCoCrAlYTa coatings are widely used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems for gas turbines and aeroengines to provide oxidation resistance and support the formation of a protective thermally grown oxide (TGO). Herein, high‐current pulsed electron beam (HCPEB) modification was utilized to strengthen a NiCoCrAlYTa coating by ...

VO2 Hollow Nano‐Reactor: Enabling Near‐Room‐Temperature and Ultrafast Hydrogen Release From α‐AlH3

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT α‐phase aluminum trihydride (α‐AlH3) is a promising high‐capacity hydrogen storage material, but its practical application is limited by slow dehydrogenation kinetics and high reaction temperatures. This study demonstrates, for the first time, effective modulation of the hydrogen release kinetics of AlH3 by employing a hollow nanostructured ...

Electrically Switchable Altermagnetism in Monolayer MoCl3

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Altermagnets intertwine spin‐split bands with vanishing net magnetization, offering great potential for high‐density, stray‐field‐free spintronic devices. However, their development is hindered by both material scarcity and difficulties in external control due to their intrinsic symmetry protection.

Dual Modulation of Schottky Barrier Height and Width Enables High‐Performance p‐Type MoTe2 Transistors

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Efficient hole injection at metal‐semiconductor interfaces remains a central challenge for high‐performance p‐type transistors based on two‐dimensional (2D) semiconductors. Although substantial efforts have been devoted to reducing Schottky barrier height through contact engineering, the barrier width is rarely addressed, thereby limiting ...
