The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.Recent strategies address these challenges through ion‐specific regulation, encompassing chloride‐tolerant and chloride‐regulating anodes together with cathode designs that suppress OH− accumulation and Mg2+/Ca2+ coupling. This ion‐management‐oriented framework provides general guidelines for achieving stable, selective, and scalable seawater ...

Hyperbranched Molecular Brush Membrane for Efficient and Antifouling Oil‐Water Emulsion Separation
CleanMat, EarlyView.This work develops a carboxyl‐terminated hyperbranched molecular brush‐modified membrane that exhibits superhydrophilicity, underwater superoleophobicity, and a strong negative charge. The membrane achieves high efficiency, superior antifouling performance, and stable separation of oil‐in‐water emulsions across a wide pH range.
