Electrospun Carbon Nanofiber‐Based Multifunctional Electrocatalysts for Zinc‐Air Batteries and Overall Water Splitting: Fabrication, Progress, and Perspective

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of high‐performance and stable electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) plays a critical role in advancing clean energy technologies, including metal‐air batteries and hydrogen production through overall water splitting.

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

open access: yesRare 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.

Evolutionary and environmental determinants of heat tolerance and acclimation capacity in herpetofauna

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Exploring heat tolerance and acclimation capacity can provide an effective approach to evaluating species’ sensitivity to extremely high temperatures due to climate warming. Despite some work on amphibian and reptile thermophysiological adaptation, related questions remain. We reviewed the literature to provide a synthesis of worldwide data on

Urban sustainability commitment: Actor constellations and motivations

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract In recent years, cities have increasingly committed to sustainable urban development, despite it being a voluntary task. This paper investigates the causes behind this commitment by focusing on local policy‐makers and their motivation rather than viewing cities as unitary actors.

Do Ambitious Goals Call for Stringent Policy? The Stringency, Target Sectors, and Measures of Finland's Climate and Energy Policy in Response to EU Greenhouse Gas Emission Targets

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines how the climate and energy policy in Finland changed between the two parliamentary terms of 2015–2019 and 2019–2023, when the EU tightened its greenhouse gas emission targets. We analyze the relevant policy measures (N = 223) of five government strategic plans and evaluate their stringency, i.e., their compulsory and ...

Adverse neonatal outcomes in small‐for‐gestational age twins identified using twin vs singleton growth charts: systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 706-715, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the use of twin vs singleton growth charts for detecting small‐for‐gestational‐age (SGA) twins at risk of adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane and Scopus databases were searched electronically from inception to May 2024.

Factors influencing fine roots decomposition rates in response to nitrogen addition vary across root characteristics

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3504-3516, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nitrogen (N) deposition strongly affects litter decomposition and nutrient release, thereby reshaping carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Although most studies have focused on above‐ground litter, the effects of N addition on fine root decomposition and their ...

Experimental insights into characteristic properties and applications of two‐dimensional Janus transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials: a comprehensive review

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 8161-8197, November 2025.
Graphical abstract AbstractThe studies on the synthesis of two‐dimensional (2D) Janus materials have made significant progress over the years. They offer new opportunities to increase the potential usage of Janus transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials in different application areas due to their unique structural, electrical, optical and ...

Aridity and grazing are associated with reduced trait complementarity and higher invasion intensity of Solanum rostratum in native plant communities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 3255-3268, November 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The biotic resistance hypothesis (BRH) of Elton posits that diverse communities are more resistant to biological invasions. While the effects of climatic stresses and human disturbances on community invasibility have been extensively studied individually, their combined

Climate and Land‐Use Changes Predicted to Jointly Drive Soil Fungal Diversity Losses in One‐Third of North American Coniferous Forests

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study assessed the potential impacts of climate and land‐use change on soil fungal diversity across four North American biomes. We found that climate change typically caused both diversity losses and gains, particularly in coniferous forests and among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, whereas land‐use change mainly reduced diversity, especially in ...
