Diatom‐Inspired 1D Immobile Robots Capable of 2D Collective Mobility

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study presents a diatom‐inspired robotic system that explores group coordination through limited physical interactions. The researchers tune groups of Barbots, simple robotic agents that possess neither individual mobility nor explicit communication capabilities, to achieve complex and adaptive collaboration based on environmental light.

Fear of grazing rivals the toxin‐inducing effects of nutrients in two marine harmful algae – a meta‐analysis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1904-1921, August 2026.
ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

The Inertness of the Lysozyme Template: Assessing the Structural Impact of Silicification Byproducts and Precursors

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lysozyme templates bioinspired silicification via localized electrostatic pooling, at variance with disordered peptides, require counterion‐driven coacervation. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering and NMR spectroscopy reveal that the folded lysozyme template remains structurally inert and monomeric in the presence of silicic acid mimics and alcohol byproducts.

PondNet – towards a global network of experiments on the effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Global change is reshaping the distribution of biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems. Predicting the long‐term consequences of such changes remains a challenge due to a need for a clear understanding of the mechanisms underpinning ecosystem‐level responses, as well as the role of geographical and environmental contingencies.

Strong spatial partitioning of mesozooplankton in a dynamic frontal zone shapes trophic transfer efficiency

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Frontal zones are often areas of increased biological productivity and have hydrographic gradients on short spatial scales. The small scale of gradients poses a challenge in identifying differences in zooplankton community structure and trophic transfer efficiency through the pelagic food web.
