Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many small endotherms employ torpor as a survival strategy to reduce energy expenditure during periods with low food availability and cold temperatures. The expression and physiology of torpor can vary substantially within species because of phenotypic plasticity and ...

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks
Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...

Production of Sustainable Adsorbents for CO2 Capture Applications from Food Biowastes
Traditional methods to develop biomass-based carbon adsorbents generally involve carbonization followed by chemical or physical activation. However, routes involving the hydrothermal treatment of biomass are receiving growing interest.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the adoption of carbon pricing policies within the U.S. across states. While policymakers have many tools at their disposal, carbon pricing is a policy option that utilizes market theories to curtail harmful effects from emissions through pricing structures.

Carbon xerogels synthesized via a microwave‐assisted process were carbonized in the range of 1000°C–2800°C and evaluated as anodes for next‐generation sodium‐ion batteries. The material prepared at 1800°C showed optimal structural and textural properties and excellent electrochemical performance. Potential profile analysis provided insights into sodium
