MoS2‐Modified Bamboo‐Like Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Nanotubes Encapsulating Ni Nanoparticles Enabling Synergistic Adsorption–Catalysis for High‐Performance Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The commercialization of lithium–sulfur batteries (Li–S batteries) has been hindered by the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and sluggish redox kinetics. In this study, we constructed a three‐dimensional hollow conductive network host material for sulfur with synergistic enhancement effects.

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

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2548-2559, August 2026.
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.

Alleviation of phosphorus rather than nitrogen limitation driven by permafrost and landscape effects on Dahurian larch forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2590-2601, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.

Leaf C:P ratio as a universal indicator of photosynthesis in subtropical woody species: Stoichiometric thresholds and metabolic trade‐offs

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2332-2344, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) serve as important indicators for assessing nutrient balance in forest ecosystems, but their relationships with photosynthetic dynamics require deeper characterization.

Ultralight N‐Doped Interconnected Porous Carbon From Lignin: Synergistic Structural and Doping Engineering for High‐Performance Electromagnetic Wave Absorption

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of lightweight, high‐attenuation, and broadband carbon‐based electromagnetic wave absorbers is hindered by the intrinsic trade‐off between impedance matching and dielectric dissipation. Herein, we report a facile and scalable synthesis of N‐doped lignin‐derived interconnected porous carbon (Nx‐LIPC) via hydrogen‐bond self ...

Edge‐Fluorinated Flower‐Like Porous Graphene Microspheres With Enlarged Interlayer Spacing for High‐Performance Potassium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The utilization of carbonaceous anodes in electrochemical systems, particularly potassium‐ion batteries (PIBs), remains hindered by sluggish kinetics and modest capacities, which are caused by the intrinsic ion storage mechanisms and constrained interlayer spacings.
