Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

Well-Being on Planet Earth

open access: yesPsychological Topics, 2009
The Gallup World Poll allows a look at how humanity is flourishing, based on the answers of survey respondents sampled from across the globe. Several conclusions are clear. First, how people are doing depends enormously on the society in which they live,

Microscale Patterning of Ultrahigh‐Viscosity Metallic‐Polymer Composites via Embedded Droplet Writing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid additive manufacturing platform integrates direct droplet writing of metallic composite with VAT photopolymerization to fabricate architected soft magnetic composites. This approach enables microscale patterning of high‐viscosity materials for programmable actuators, adaptive fluidic devices, and switchable adhesives, offering tunable ...

Advances in Solution‐Processed Textile Triboelectric Nanogenerators: Ink Formation, Processing Strategies, Applications, and Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Advanced ink systems for solution‐processed textile triboelectric nanogenerators are systematically summarized, spanning conductive, tribo‐negative, and tribo‐positive layers. By connecting ink chemistry, deposition methods, and device function, the present review reveals the key governing principles of solution development and highlights practical ...

Contribution of the Moon-forming Impactor to the Volatile Inventory in the Bulk Silicate Earth

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The timing and mechanism by which the present-day inventory of life-essential volatiles hydrogen–carbon–nitrogen–sulfur (H–C–N–S) in the bulk silicate Earth (BSE) was established are debated.

Improving LAI retrieval in complex mountains with implicit mutual terrain irradiance

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People
Leaf area index (LAI), a key indicator of vegetation canopy structure, is vital to regional ecological assessment and environmental monitoring. However, rugged terrain can induce the radiation distortion recorded by senses, thus resulting in substantial ...

Implications of the TTV-detection of close-in terrestrial planets around M stars for their origin and dynamical evolution

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
It has been shown that an Earth-size planet or a super-Earth, in resonance with a transiting Jupiter-like body around an M star, can create detectable TTV signals (Kirste & Haghighipour, 2011).

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

A global approach to near-Earth object impact threat mitigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
There is currently no concerted international plan addressing the impact threat and how to organize, prepare and implement mitigation measures. We report on a new international project to address impact hazard mitigation issues, being the subject of a ...
