Terrestrial ecosystem health under long-term metal inputs: modeling and risk assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Metal contamination of soils may pose long-term risks to ecosystem health if not properly managed. Future projection of contamination trends, coupled with ecological assessment, is needed to assess such risks.

Melt Electrowriting High Resolution Poly(ethylene‐co‐vinyl acetate) Scaffolds for Soft Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work pioneers melt electrowriting (MEW) of polyethylene vinyl acetate (PEVA) to fabricate ultra‐compliant, high‐resolution scaffolds. By integrating microscale precision with soft tissue‐like biomechanics, PEVA overcomes stiffness‐driven limitations of conventional MEW polymers, establishing a mechanically biomimetic platform for soft tissue ...

An exposure-effect approach for evaluating ecosystem-wide risks from human activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ecosystem-based management (EBM) is promoted as the solution for sustainable use. An ecosystem-wide assessment methodology is therefore required. In this paper, we present an approach to assess the risk to ecosystem components from human activities ...
