ABSTRACT Research on English‐Medium‐Instruction (EMI) highlights inadequate support for students transitioning from L1‐medium‐instruction to EMI. To date, little research has focused on how L2 students’ adaptation to an EMI environment influences their L2 learning motivation (LLM).

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

ABSTRACT Disruptive innovations often diffuse faster than inherited policy institutions can classify, assign jurisdiction, and govern them. In these early phases, the central struggle is often not yet about the stringency of substantive standards, but about prior questions of what the innovation is (its legal and administrative classification), who is ...

ABSTRACT Biodegradable Zn‐based alloys are promising candidates for temporary implants, yet excessive Zn2+ release during degradation may induce cytotoxicity and adverse tissue responses. In this study, Zn‐xBa alloys (x = 0.1 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1.0 wt% and 3.0 wt%) were developed to achieve controlled corrosion behaviors with improved biocompatibility.

ABSTRACT High‐entropy oxides (HEOs) are promising for microwave absorption but suffer from a trade‐off between impedance matching and attenuation, often requiring high filling ratios (> 50 wt%). Herein, we propose a “lattice‐spin” dual‐regulation strategy by introducing giant‐radius Bi into a single‐phase HEO solid solution.

Atom Probe Tomography‐Based Analysis of Residual Trace Elements in Advanced Metallic Materials
ABSTRACT Residual trace elements inherited from raw materials strongly influence the mechanical and environmental performance of advanced metallic alloys and recycling materials due to preferable boundary/interface segregation and resultant embrittlement effects, yet their parts per million level concentrations pose significant challenges to ...

ABSTRACT Arsenic presents a critical duality as both a hazardous environmental pollutant and an indispensable material for advanced semiconductor technologies. This study proposes an integrated reductive vacuum sublimation strategy, assisted by carbon and lead additives, to purify crude arsenic containing high oxygen (7.4%) and antimony (1326 mg kg−1).
