Urbanization and Spatial Aggregation Impair Multifunctionality in Urban Vacant Lots

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study provides the first assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality in urban vacant lots. Although urbanization and spatial aggregation of vacant lots impaired multifunctionality, soil moisture improved it. ABSTRACT Urban shrinkage, driven by population decline rather than expansion, is an emerging concern in many developed ...

Selective and Tunable Routes for Glucose to Fructose Conversion Using MgCl2 Catalysis and Comparison to Other Metal Ions

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
MgCl2 is a cheap catalyst for glucose to fructose conversion in water with excellent selectivity if competing pathways leading to CC bond breakage avoided by control of pH and oxygen and use of mild temperatures. Both a stereoselective 1,2‐hydride shift and isomerization via an enediol intermediate contribute to the isomerization.

Roots of resilience: Assessing child and adolescent nature connectivity in the Mediterranean Region of Murcia (Spain)

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 378-391, February 2026.
Abstract Children today spend less time outdoors than previous generations, with potential consequences for health, learning and pro‐environmental attitudes. We assessed children's connection with and exposure to nature in a Mediterranean setting using the Nature Connection and Experience Index (NCEI), a composite measure that integrates an affective ...

Blue and NIR Upconversion in Tm3+/Yb3+ Co‐Doped Yttrium Pyrogermanate Phosphor for High‐Sensitivity Optical Thermometry

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 2, February 2026.
Y2Ge2O7:Tm3+/Yb3+ phosphors synthesized via solid‐state method exhibit efficient blue and NIR upconversion luminescence under 980 nm excitation, enabled by cooperative energy transfer from Yb3+ to Tm3+. The system demonstrates excellent optical thermometry performance, achieving a maximum absolute sensitivity of 156.42 × 10−2 K−1 and relative ...

A Healthier Distance? Spatial Proximity to Everyday Amenities and Self‐Rated Health among Older Adults in the Northern Netherlands

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, Volume 117, Issue 1, Page 121-136, February 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the association between the proximity of home to various everyday life amenities and self‐rated health (SRH) among 7,226 older adults who participated in the Lifelines health survey. Our results show that SRH was significantly higher for participants living farther from grocery shops and closer to healthcare places.

Nutzen der 3d‐4f Koordination: Molekulares Quanten‐Feder‐Magnet‐Verhalten in axialen Ni2Ln Komplexen

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 5, 28 January 2026.
Wir berichten über heterotrimetallische Ni2Ln Komplexe, die Austauschfeder‐Magnete auf molekularer Ebene nachahmen. CASSCF Rechnungen zeigen kollineare Anisotropieachsen, während µSQUID Studien langsame Relaxation und offene Hysterese in Ni2Tb, Ni2Dy, und Ni2Ho offenbaren.
