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

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
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.

Constructed value of information with iterative scoring and parametric uncertainty to identify management‐relevant research priorities for a declining raptor species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

Synergistic Enhancement of Toluene Catalytic Oxidation via Pt‐Induced Oxygen Vacancies and Heterojunction Built‐In Electric Field

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Improving catalytic activity for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) oxidation and enhancing water‐tolerance stability remain challenging in practical applications. Herein, a composite catalyst integrating Pt/CoOx‐NiOx mesoporous nanorods (MNRs) with a phenyltriethoxysilane (PhTES)‐modified surface was fabricated via a facile route for toluene ...

In Situ Transmission Electron Microscopy Study of Titanium–Steel Heterostructure: Real‐Time Analysis of Interfacial Fracture Evolution

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Titanium (Ti)–steel composite joints are prone to the formation of compounds such as TiC, TiFe, and TiFe2 during solid‐phase bonding. This phenomenon leads to premature failure and significantly reduces the bonding quality of the joints. However, the fracture behavior of the joint influenced by these compounds, particularly on the initiation ...

Architecting a Robust Yarn‐Like CNT Framework for Structurally Resilient ZnSe Anodes in Potassium–Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of structurally stable anodes with high capacities and long cycle lives is essential for the development of potassium–ion batteries. Conversion‐type anodes have attracted considerable attention in potassium–ion batteries (PIBs) due to their high theoretical capacities.

Root exudates mediate microorganisms to improve rhizosphere nutrient availability and crop productivity under straw mulching and slow‐release nitrogen fertilizer

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1725-1739, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudates play a key role as signals and nutrients in mediating plant–microbe communication. However, critical knowledge gaps remain regarding how root exudates mediate soil–microbe–plant interactions to regulate crop yield under long‐term straw mulching combined ...

Plant economics traits predict plant carbon allocation and responsiveness to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under varying precipitation

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1921-1932, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Most terrestrial plant species form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). However, the below‐ground carbon (C) allocation of plants and the nutritional and growth benefits provided by AMF within this symbiosis vary greatly across species and environments ...

Rapid construction of insect–plant interaction networks via multiplexed long‐fragment DNA metabarcoding and NGS

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1896-1909, June 2026.
Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.
