Larval condition and growth of Sardinella brasiliensis (Steindachner, 1879): preliminary results from laboratory studies [PDF]
, 2003 Brazilian sardine, the most important resource along the southeastern Brazilian coast, presented great variations and declines in its stocks. The main factors contributing to this are: oceanographic structure changes; recruitment failures; excessive ...

Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

(Poly)Borylated Species as Modern Reactive Groups toward Unusual Synthetic Applications
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.In this review, we spotlight recent breakthroughs in α‐polyboron‐substituted carbon‐centered intermediates (carbanion, carbocation, radical, and carbene) and polyborylated alkenes. By bridging fundamental reactivity with the application potential of these extraordinary species, we hope this review will serve as a roadmap for harnessing these unique ...

Mechanically Triggered Chemical Recyclable Polyethylene‐Like Materials
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Polyethylene‐like copolymers with benchmark properties are prepared by embedding latent cyclobutene mechanophores to overcome PE's end‐of‐life limits. The mechanophores are inert in service but are selectively opened by solvent‐free ball milling to yield well‐defined telechelic oligomers.

Manatees display diel trends in acoustic activity at two microhabitats in Belize.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Many marine mammals exhibit diel trends in vocal production, which can provide information on habitat use and behavioral activity. In Belize, Antillean manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus) commonly inhabit small depressions in the substrate or deep ...
