Evaluation of Low‐Level Clouds, Temperature, and Surface Radiation Using a Model, Two Reanalyses, and Southern Ocean Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Low‐level clouds over the Southern Ocean (SO) exert a strong influence on surface radiation, yet their representation in reanalyses and climate models remains uncertain. We evaluated cloud properties and surface radiative fluxes from ERA5, MERRA‐2, and the CAM‐ATRAS model using observations obtained over the SO by Japan's R/V Shirase during ...

Distribution Characteristics and Factors Influencing Culturable Bacterial Bioaerosols on a Dairy Farm in Northern China

Agriculture, 2023
Studying the distribution characteristics of bioaerosols and their interaction with the environment is crucial for dairy farms. The distribution of aerosols differs in dairy farming from farming of other livestock, and their sensitivity to environmental ...

Covalently Immobilized Lignin–Xanthene Conjugates for Persistent Surface Photochemistry and Self‐Sterilizing Interfaces Under Ambient Visible Light

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Bio‐derived lignin–Eosin Y macromolecular networks are developed as visible‐light‐responsive self‐sterilizing coatings that generate reactive oxygen species without leaching. The spray‐coated photopolymerized surfaces exhibit durable antibacterial and antiviral activity under ambient light for extended periods, demonstrating a scalable and sustainable ...

Efficacy and Efficiency of an Atmospheric Pressure Dielectric Barrier Discharge Reactor (GAPS) for Air Disinfection

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2026.
A Grid‐like Air Plasma Sanitiser has been tested for the inactivation of airborne pathogens. This reactor demonstrates a 4.5 and 2.5‐log reduction in aerosolized E. coli and SARS‐CoV‐2, respectively. This device shows an energy efficiency per order index, 2 orders of magnitude lower than values reported for comparable plasma‐based systems.

Pollen Mineralization Fuels Biogeochemical Cycling and Microbial Community Succession in Lake Superior

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Pollen is a terrigenous particulate regarded as recalcitrant organic matter (OM) in aquatic ecosystems, seasonally introducing undetermined quantities of terrigenous OM to inland lakes. The role of pollen as a carbon and nutrient delivery mechanism for large aquatic ecosystems remains an understudied component of biogeochemical cycling.
