Soil carbon fractions and their role in climate-resilient agriculture: A review

open access: yesSustainable Chemistry for Climate Action
Soil, a complex and dynamic ecosystem, is a vital support system for life on Earth. Soil carbon fractions—from transient, labile forms to persistent recalcitrant pools—play a key role in climate mitigation, soil fertility, and sustainable land management.

Quasi‐Solid Cathode Additive Enables Highly Reversible Four‐Electron I−/I0/I+ Conversion in Aqueous Zn‐I2 Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A quasi‐solid BMICl/CNTs additive addresses dual challenges in four‐electron zinc‐iodine batteries (4eZIBs). It suppresses polyiodide shuttling via bonding in the I−/I0 step and enhances I+ kinetics while curbing hydrolysis via Cl− immobilization and BMI‐ICl2 complex formation in the I0/I+ step.
