pH‐Tunable Material Properties of Glycine‐Rich Condensates from Tick Bioadhesive

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work studies the influence of pH on the phase separation behavior of a disordered glycine‐rich protein found in tick bioadhesive. The results show profound impact on the propensity of coacervation, condensate microstructure and viscosity, amphiphilicity of the peptides, and effective encapsulation of therapeutic molecules.

From Waste to Value: Conversion of Calcium Sulfate to Vaterite via Carbon Capture and Storage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new concept for carbon management that relies on the carbonation of industrial gypsum waste and yields phase‐pure vaterite at ambient conditions without any additives. The obtained vaterite is further shown to be a reactive material that develops compressive strength in aqueous suspensions like conventional cements.

UAV-LiDAR-Based Study on AGB Response to Stand Structure and Its Estimation in Cunninghamia Lanceolata Plantations

Remote Sensing
Forest spatial structure is of significant importance for studying forest biomass accumulation and management. However, above-ground biomass (AGB) estimation based on satellite remote sensing struggles to capture forest spatial structure information ...

Carbon Capture and Sequestration [PDF]

Science, 2009
Overwhelming scientific evidence shows that CO 2 emissions from fossil fuels have caused the climate to change, and a dramatic reduction of these emissions is essential to reduce the risk of future devastating effects.

Bio‐Inspired Nanoarchitected LiFePO4 Cathodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) is synthesized using a bio‐inspired method, using acidic macromolecules similar to those found in many calcareous mineralized organisms to modulate the morphology and crystal growth of LFP‐carbon composite particles. The observations from this process indicate a non‐classical crystallization process, which subsequently ...

Biochar conductivity enhances methane generation in paddy soil by facilitating electron transfer mediated by dissolved organic matter

Biochar
Biochar can regulate methane (CH4) emissions from paddy soils. However, the mechanism through which biochar conductivity influences methanogenesis in paddy soils remains unclear.
