The role of substrate materials for the survival and growth of coral micro‐fragment sheets

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Biofouling can have a negative impact on the survival and growth of corals in aquaculture. For coral aquaculture to support reef restoration, there needs to be a cost‐effective and efficient method that reduces the reliance on labor for coral maintenance.

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

Reconfigurable Metamirrors Based on Compliant Mechanisms

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 10, 2 February 2026.
Providing the basis for numerous practical applications, the reconfigurability of metadevices is of great importance. Through the integration of controlled mechanical deformation with chiral meta‐atoms, a compliant mechanism based metamirror is demonstrated for active control over the polarization of electromagnetic waves.

A review of autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) for monitoring hard‐bottom benthic biodiversity

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 435-455, February 2026.
Abstract Amid increasing anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems, standardised biodiversity monitoring is critical for assessing biodiversity change. Marine hard‐bottom habitats, though ubiquitous and biodiverse, present challenges for biodiversity monitoring due to their complex structure and limited accessibility. Autonomous reef monitoring structures (

Influence of Temperature, Sunlight and Wind on the Mobilization of Propylene Glycol From Airport De‐Icers by Rainfall

Water and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 44-55, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Commercial anti‐icers and de‐icers (CADs) are essential for safe winter operation; yet, their mobilization remains poorly understood, limiting the ability of airport operators to optimize treatment processes, thus presenting a significant risk to freshwater ecosystems.
