Personal climate actions do not crowd out collective action and policy support: longitudinal evidence

npj Climate Action
Individual pro-environmental behaviours are often promoted as a pathway to broader climate engagement, yet critics argue they may divert attention from more impactful systemic solutions. Using four annual waves of longitudinal survey data from Australia (

Architecture‐Driven Sensor Stability in Weft‐Knitted Engineering Textiles

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Textile‐integrated sensor architectures are systematically compared to evaluate their electromechanical behavior under combined mechanical and environmental loading. Pocket‐based integration exhibits stable and reproducible signals, whereas tunnel‐based routing shows higher sensitivity accompanied by increased variability.

Gallium Microalloying in Bi–Sn Solders: Interfacial Phase Formation, Wettability, and Long‐Term Shear Reliability Under Isothermal Aging

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Gallium microalloying redirects interfacial reactions in low‐temperature Bi–Sn solders from Cu–Sn toward Cu–Ga intermetallic formation. The resulting Cu–Ga layer suppresses intermetallic growth during thermal aging, alters fracture pathways, and improves interfacial stability.

Downscaled projections of bioclimatic indices for species distribution modelling in Australia—a case study for the greater glider

Environmental Research: Climate
Climate change is a major factor contributing to biodiversity loss globally and in Australia. Addressing this conservation challenge requires information about present and future species distributions.

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

The diversity, dynamics, and culturability of bacterial and fungal communities present in warm-season pasture grass seeds

Frontiers in Microbiology
A rapidly changing climate has resulted in increasing challenges for farmers. This has led to an increase in demand for beneficial microbes to help fight these challenges faced by farmers, improving crop production under harsh conditions.

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Location of capture sufficiently characterises lifetime growth trajectories in a highly mobile fish

Movement Ecology
Variation in somatic growth plays a critical role in determining an individual’s body size and the expression of its life history. Understanding the environmental drivers of growth variation in mobile organisms such as fishes can be challenging because ...

Climate data for climate action

npj Climate Action
Political instability and geopolitical tension, together with rising nationalism, bureaucracy and economic pressure, increasingly challenge free access to and exchange of scientific data (both physical and digital), knowledge transfer (within and beyond academia), and research campaigns (of national and international teams around the world).
