Aspire Regional Collaboratives: A Flexible Model for Cultivating a Diverse and Inclusive STEM Faculty at Community Colleges

New Directions for Community Colleges, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Aspire Regional Collaborative (RC) initiative fosters community college and university partnerships that strengthen pathways to STEM faculty positions in community colleges. In this study, we draw from the designing educational innovation for sustained adoption (DEISA) framework to document the progress of the RC initiative.

Graphene Materials for Sustainable Energy Applications: A Contemporary Perspective

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Graphene has garnered significant attention as a promising material with great potential for contributing to sustainable energy initiatives, such as RE100 (100% renewable energy initiative) and CF100 (100% carbon‐free initiative). This review aims to explore the potential of graphene for advancing renewable energy applications by highlighting

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

Atom Swapping Reaction on Diborylcarbenoid: Synthesis and Electronic Structure of Inorganic Chalcogenophene Analogues

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inorganic analogues of aromatic compounds, wherein C═C bonds are replaced with B─N bonds, are isoelectronic with the original aromatic compounds, however, they can show different properties. While borazine, an inorganic analogue of benzene, has been well‐studied, inorganic analogues of chalcogenophene have been less explored.

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Increase in plant productivity in the tundra in Sweden is not related to increasing presence of warm‐adapted vascular plant species

Ecography, EarlyView.
Over the past decades, Arctic and alpine biomes have warmed faster than the global average. Substantial vegetation changes have been reported as a response to this warming, including increased productivity and the spread of warm‐adapted (thermophilic) species that are less resistant to grazing pressure into higher latitudes and altitudes.

Climate‐driven resource availability drives medium‐ and broad‐scale temporal changes in owl–prey interactions over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem

Ecography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions are vital to ecosystem functioning but may be disrupted by climate change. We investigated a food‐web network involving three owl species over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem at Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, Chile.

Global analysis suggests nitrogen deposition as an underestimated driver of vegetation greening

Ecography, EarlyView.
The local effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on plants are well established, yet a global empirical analysis of nitrogen deposition effects on vegetation dynamics is missing. Here, we assess how nitrogen deposition, alongside other global change drivers such as fire, and changes in temperature, precipitation and human land use, is related to ...

Recent Advances in Pickering Emulsion Templated Phase Change Material Microcapsules: Design, Fabrication, and Multifunctional Applications

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fabrication process of phase change microcapsules using a Pickering emulsion template method and their subsequent applications. The increasing demand for efficient thermal energy storage systems has driven the development of phase change material microcapsules (PCMMs), which provide high energy‐storage density, reversible phase change, and reduced ...
