Vine‐Inspired Soft Robotics: Materials, Actuations, and Emerging Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vine‐inspired robots grow from the tip, enabling navigation through confined spaces with minimal disturbance. This Review summarizes material and actuation strategies for vine‐inspired growth, key functions including steering, retraction, attachment, branching, and variable stiffness, and emerging applications spanning medical intervention, confined ...

Seasonal and developmental patterns of body condition in Arctic seals

Frontiers in Marine Science
Quantifying the body condition of free-ranging marine mammals remains a central challenge in marine ecology, particularly for species inhabiting remote or logistically difficult environments. As rapidly warming conditions threaten the long-term viability

Structured decision analysis informed by traditional ecological knowledge as a tool to strengthen subsistence systems in a changing Arctic

Ecology and Society, 2018
Climate change is impacting the subsistence livelihoods of many indigenous communities in the Arctic. We describe how structured decision analysis (SDA), informed by traditional ecological knowledge, can be used to understand the mechanisms of how ...

A Quantitative Lithium Inventory Framework for Anode‐Free Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A component‐resolved lithium inventory framework quantitatively tracks Li redistribution across the cell in anode‐free NMC622||Cu pouch cells throughout cycling. Three sequential degradation stages are identified: formation‐driven cathode Li depletion, midlife inactive Li0 accumulation, and late‐stage runaway SEI thickening. The cathode, as the sole Li

Sonocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction for syngas production over surface‐roughened CuxO catalyst

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition to a carbon‐circular economy requires efficient technologies for converting CO2 into value‐added chemical feedstocks. Sonocatalytic CO2 conversion has recently emerged as a compelling approach to drive this conversion. Here, we report a surface‐roughened CuxO catalyst for sonocatalytic CO2 reduction in aqueous media, achieving a

Exposure to heat waves and drought improves subsequent leaf heat tolerance for five oak species in southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Given the threats of climate change, we investigated the impact of high temperatures separately and in combination with reduced soil water on leaf heat tolerance for five oaks (Fagaceae) with overlapping ranges in southern California, USA: Quercus agrifolia and Q. chrysolepis (evergreen species), Q. douglasii and Q.
