Recent Advances in Conjugated Microporous Polymers for Photocatalysis: Mechanism, Synthesis and Applications

Exploration, EarlyView.
Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) have attracted more and more attention as new photocatalysts due to their unique advantages such as high performance, long stability and strong light absorption. This review summarizes the application of CMPs as a photocatalyst in recent years and introduces the catalytic mechanism.

Nonthermal Food Processing Technologies: A Comprehensive Review

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the shift from traditional thermal food preservation methods to advanced nonthermal technologies. Traditional methods, represented by heating, often compromise the nutritional and sensory quality of foods. In contrast, nonthermal approaches such as high‐pressure processing (HPP), pulsed electric field (PEF ...

Global in situ Observations of Essential Climate and Ocean Variables at the Air–Sea Interface

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
The air–sea interface is a key gateway in the Earth system. It is where the atmosphere sets the ocean in motion, climate/weather-relevant air–sea processes occur, and pollutants (i.e., plastic, anthropogenic carbon dioxide, radioactive/chemical waste ...

Exchangeable lead (Pb) in lowland paddy soils of Sri Lanka as affected by the differences in agro‐climatic zones, soil orders, and water sources

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Lead (Pb) accumulation in the human body poses serious health risks. As rice is the staple food in Sri Lanka, with a high per capita intake (114 kg), there is a significant risk of Pb transfer through rice consumption. This study evaluated exchangeable Pb concentrations in soils and produced Pb distribution maps.

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.
