Spatial identification of areas suitable for other effective area‐based conservation measures in the European Union

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although significant biodiversity has been safeguarded by protected areas (PAs), biodiversity trends continue downward. Within the frameworks of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the new EU Restoration Regulation (2024), conserving critical biodiversity areas is essential.

Thermally Driven Hydrogenation of CO2 to Light Olefins Over Hollow Cubic In2O3‐La‐ZIF‐8 Tandem Catalyst

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Thermally driven hydrogenation of CO2 to light olefins (C2=–C4=) using metal oxide‐zeolite tandem catalysts is an effective strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. However, progress in this area is constrained by zeolite pore transport limitations, acid‐site inactivation, and surface carbon poisoning.

Comparative Evaluation of Chemical and Physical Expansive Agents in Cemented Paste Backfill: Expansion Behavior, Mechanical Response, and Microstructural Mechanisms

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents an assessment of four representative expansive additives—calcium sulphoaluminate–calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium abietate—and their effects on the expansion behavior, mechanical development, and microstructural characteristics of cemented paste backfill (CPB).

Elevation, soil pH and calcium availability shape regional and local scale spatial patterns of PhoD gene abundance in tropical and subtropical forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 983-1000, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Organic phosphorus mineralization is a critical process in the phosphorus cycle, governing phosphorus bioavailability for plants. The PhoD gene, which encodes the key enzyme alkaline phosphatase, serves as a valuable biomarker for this process.

Distribution, scale, and drivers of mass mortality events in Europe's freshwater bivalves

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are decimating populations and compromising key ecosystem functions around the globe. One taxon particularly vulnerable to MMEs is freshwater bivalve mollusks. This group has important ecosystem engineering capacities and includes highly threatened and highly invasive taxa.

Ionic‐Liquid‐Assisted Synthesis of NiTe/CoTe Heterostructure With Te Vacancies in N, P, and F Co‐Doped Hollow Carbon Nanorods for Efficient Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution and High‐Performance Flexible Supercapacitors

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Low conductivity, slow ion‐diffusion, and limited reactive sites are common problems in electrocatalysts and electrode materials. In this study, a complex NiTe–CoTe heterojunction with abundant Te vacancies embedded in N, P, and F co‐doped hollow carbon nanorods (NiTe1−x–CoTe1−x/NPFC) was fabricated via a simple ionic liquid‐assisted ...

Multiple pregnancy with complete hydatidiform mole and coexisting normal fetus: systematic review and meta‐analysis of clinical outcomes from non‐randomized studies

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 272-282, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Complete hydatidiform mole and coexisting normal fetus (CHMCF) is a rare condition for which there is significant heterogeneity in diagnosis, counseling and management of complications. The objective of this study was to summarize the prevalence of clinical outcomes in reported cases of CHMCF.

Interfacial Electronic Interactions in Hierarchical Heterostructure Electrocatalyst for Energy‐Saving Hydrogen Production at Industrial Current Densities

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Developing low‐energy‐input electrocatalytic systems for efficient hydrogen production is crucial for advancing sustainable energy technologies. The overall hydrazine splitting (OHzS) has emerged as a promising strategy to reduce the overall energy consumption by replacing the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction.

Contrasting light demands determine the coordination of plants' non‐structural carbohydrates and economic strategy over the range of solar spectral composition

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 534-552, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Non‐structural carbohydrates (NSC) are critical mediators of plant adaptation to fluctuating light environments. They are tightly coordinated with plant economic strategy, that is, leaf economics spectrum (LES) and root economics spectrum (RES).

Implications of global distributive justice principles for implementation of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract In the era of the sixth mass extinction, reversing global biodiversity loss is of vital importance for life on Earth. In 2022, parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) adopted the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), a strategic plan with 23 action‐oriented targets to be achieved by 2030.
