Designing the Next Generation of Biomaterials through Nanoengineering

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 39, October 2, 2025.
Nanoengineering enables precise control over biomaterial interactions with living systems by tuning surface energy, defects, porosity, and crystallinity. This review highlights how these nanoscale design parameters drive advances in regenerative medicine, drug delivery, bioprinting, biosensing, and bioimaging, while outlining key translational ...

Quantitative Assessment of Environmental Site Design vs. Traditional Storage‐Based Stormwater Management: Impacts on Catchment Hydrology of Minebank Run, Baltimore, MD

Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2025.
Study compared effects of traditional stormwater storage ponds to environmental site design (ESD) on annual maximum peak flows, annual runoff coefficient and flow flashiness in a developed catchment with limited stormwater controls. ESD and ponds reduced annual maximum peak flow by nearly 50%, but only ESD significantly decreased the annual runoff ...

Selection and Evaluation of Native Plants for Rain Gardens in Tropical Regions: A Dual‐Method Assessment Framework

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Rain gardens depend on resilient plant species that can withstand fluctuating moisture conditions while providing ecological and aesthetic benefits. This study addresses the limited research on tropical and native herbaceous species by evaluating their health through both visual and physiological assessment methods.

Influence of Plant Species and De‐Icing Salt on Microbial Communities in Bioretention

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
Plant species shape bioretention bacterial and fungal communities and their associated functions, which drive system efficiency. These results underscore the importance of plant selection when designing bioretention systems. Moreover, the communities were preserved or recovered within 5 months after the exposure to NaCl levels typical of spring runoff.

Microplastic, an Emerging Threat to the Global Seagrass Ecosystems: A Review

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 1, Fall 2025.
ABSTRACT Seagrass, a type of marine plant that grows into meadows in intertidal zones and shallow coastal waters, can contribute to numerous ecological and economic benefits. Benefits include carbon sequestration, habitat for marine species, coastal protection, and raw materials for medicines and fertilizer production.

Comparing dry and wet sieving with laser diffraction to the hydrometer method for particle size analysis of sandy bioretention soil media

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 89, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract Standardization of particle size analysis (PSA) is crucial to ensure the proper blending of stormwater filter media such as bioretention soil media (BSM). BSM typically contains >80% sand and is amended with organic matter and fines (silt and clay) to support pollutant removal.
