Selective Benzene Capture by Metal‐Organic Frameworks
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) hold significant potential for capturing benzene from air emissions and hydrocarbon mixtures in liquid phases. This capability stems from their precisely engineered structures, versatile chemistries, and diverse binding interactions.

The structure of ant–plant ecological networks: Is abundance enough? [PDF]
Ecology, 2014 Knowledge of the mechanisms that shape biodiversity is essential to understand the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of interacting species. Recent studies posit that most of the organization of mutualistic networks is shaped by differences in species abundance among interacting species. In this study, we examined the mutualism involving plants with

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

Niches, rather than neutrality, structure a grassland pioneer guild [PDF]
, 2005 Pioneer species are fast-growing, short-lived gap exploiters. They are prime candidates for neutral dynamics because they contain ecologically similar species whose low adult density is likely to cause widespread recruitment limitation, which slows ...

Coexistence and relative abundance in annual plant assemblages: The roles of competition and colonization [PDF]
, 2002 Although an interspecific trade-off between competitive and colonizing ability can permit multispecies coexistence, whether this mechanism controls the structure of natural systems remains unresolved.
