Tuning Grain Boundary Carbides via Solute Rare‐Earth Elements to Prevent Intergranular Brittle Fracture

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Carbides strengthen the grain boundaries; nevertheless, excessive carbide precipitates embrittle the grain boundaries of high‐temperature alloys during prolonged service. Here, we provide direct evidence of solute rare‐earth atoms and demonstrate that they can trap vacancies and inhibit interstitial diffusion, restraining carbide precipitation

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 ...

A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

Effects of landscape context on avian specialist response to increased surface temperature in protected areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Human development is a driver of global change and a major threat to biodiversity. Protected areas maintain and support biodiversity, but outside stressors, such as climate change and land use change, can negatively influence natural resources within protected areas.
