Fire Performance and Flame‐Retardant Behavior of Epoxy Resin Modified With Fly Ash and Aluminum Trihydrate

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Fly ash (FA) and aluminium trihydrate (ATH) were incorporated into epoxy to enhance fire performance. Increasing FA content delayed ignition and reduced heat release, while the FA with ATH combination significantly improved thermal protection, extending the time for coated steel to reach 100°C from 183 to 646 s.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2119-2133, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Trade‐offs in avian parental care: a review of theory and meta‐analysis of brood size manipulations

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2337-2358, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The selective forces shaping parental care have been studied for over 50 years. While theoretical and experimental work has yielded qualitative progress, the large body of empirical work testing predictions about parental investment based on life‐history trade‐offs has yet to be synthesized.

Building phenotypic character matrices for phylogenetic inference: exploration of 35 years of practice

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2379-2407, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

Catechols, Catecholamines, and Hydroxylated Naphthalene Derivatives as Building Blocks for the Electrochemical Deposition of Thin Films: Mechanisms and Properties

ChemElectroChem, Volume 13, Issue 19, 1 October 2026.
This review describes cyclic voltammetry or chronamperometry of phenol derivatives, catecholamines, and hydroxylated naphthalenes on electrodes. Under strong oxidative conditions the solutes are mineralized, but in the electrochemical stability window of the solvent, the electrode undergoes passivation or deposition of porous (eventually conductive ...

Müller Glia–Vasculature Interactions in the Developing Retina

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 10, October 2026.
Retinal vascular layers form normally despite loss of cholinergic retinal waves. Müller glial processes contact endothelial tip cells early and form Aquaporin‐4‐enriched endfeet. Glial endfoot calcium signals are compartmentalized and occur largely independently of neural activity. ABSTRACT Coordinated signaling among neurons, glia, and the vasculature

Multitechnique Physicochemical Characterization of Horse Hoof Trimmings as Sustainable and Untapped Keratin Source

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
Horse hoof trimmings, cruelty‐free and traceable keratin‐rich waste, were characterized for particle size, morphology, thermal stability, composition and metal contamination. Results show a high higher‐heating value and promising upcycling paths for energy and materials, but variable metal contamination (shoeing‐ and milling‐dependent) requires ...

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.
