Satellite‐Derived Leaf Photosynthetic Capacity Data Set Improves Atmospheric Inversion of Terrestrial Carbon Fluxes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Accurately estimating the terrestrial carbon sink is crucial for understanding the global carbon cycle. Here, we examine how different parameterizations of the key leaf photosynthetic capacity parameter, namely the maximum Rubisco carboxylation rate normalized to 25°C (Vcmax25), influence terrestrial carbon flux estimates within an atmospheric

Characterization of Nitinol Produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion for Mechanical Metamaterial Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
Stabilization of L‐PBF Ni50.7Ti49.3 under low‐cycle loading was investigated. Recoverable strain after cycling was dependent on the amount of applied load. Recovery ratio was 53.4% and 35.1% at intermediate and high load, respectively. The maximum total strain reached 10.3% at a high load of 1200 MPa.
