Does Palsa Thaw in Northern Finland Contribute to Remobilisation of Metals Accumulated in Peat Into Surface Waters?

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Resonant X‐Ray Diffraction of Conjugated Polymers at the Selenium K‐Edge

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Analogous to isomorphous replacement used in X‐ray crystallography studies of proteins, substituting sulfur for selenium in conjugated polymers enables resonant diffraction studies of molecular packing down to the length scale of π‐‐π stacking. Two selenium‐containing polymers are studied with a comparison made between sulfur K‐edge and selenium K‐edge

Data‐Driven Engineering of Thermostable Collagen‐Mimetic Peptoid Triple Helices

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Data‐driven active learning discovery of collagen‐mimetic peptoids capable of forming a thermostable collagen‐like triple helix using computational screening followed by experimental validation. ABSTRACT Collagen‐mimetic peptides (CMPs) are engineered molecules designed to replicate the triple‐helical structure of natural collagen.

Implications of heterogeneous embankment conditions for geoelectrical investigations on dams: A case study at Mactaquac Dam, Canada

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has been shown to be effective for surveying and monitoring dams, due to the method's sensitivity to moisture content and relevant physical properties (e.g., porosity). Automated ERT systems, capable of time‐lapse monitoring, can be used to detect variations in ground conditions.

Tuning adsorption and morphology in poly(glutamic acid) via controlled acidic partial deprotection

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Partial deprotection of poly(glutamic acid) generates morphologies and assemblies that match fully deprotected polypeptides in small‐molecule adsorption, extending to block copolypeptides with pH‐dependent effects. Abstract Synthetic polypeptides prepared from N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) monomers are important platforms for environmental and medical ...
