Sustainable Flame‐Retardant Poly Lactic Acid Biocomposites Reinforced with Polyphosphate‐Enriched Microalgae: Unlocking the Potential of Hyper‐Compensation

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study explores microalgae cultivation for wastewater treatment and enhancement of poly lactic acid (PLA)‐based biocomposites. It achieves up to 99.9% nutrient removal, increases biomass productivity by 322%, and demonstrates a triphasic luxury phosphorus uptake system. Incorporation into PLA improves fire‐retardant properties, suggesting potential

Women online: A study of Common Service Centres in India using a capability approach

open access: yesAsia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 268-287, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Income‐generating activities by women are an effective means of reducing gender‐based deprivation and disparities. In the constrained familial and community settings of developing economies, online platforms can be an appropriate means for women to carry out economic activities. In this context, important initiatives taken by the Government of

Reinforcement Learning Approach to Advance Non‐Fullerene Acceptor‐Based Semi‐Transparent Organic Solar Cell

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
This study introduces a deep Q‐learning framework for semi‐transparent organic solar cells, combining AI and the Transfer Matrix Method to balance transparency/efficiency. Targeting PBDB‐T:ITIC‐based layers with asymmetric DMD contacts, the algorithm optimizes thickness/material properties, achieving 48.97% AVT and sustained photocurrent.

Accessible ecophysiological tools for seabird conservation

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 1983-2002, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Seabirds are the most endangered avian taxa on Earth, with over a third of species globally threatened. To help slow their decline, conservation physiology seeks to determine how seabird responses to climatic and anthropogenic threats influence demographic processes, but it is not widely utilized in monitoring.

Self‐Adaptive Reflectance Film for Passive Temperature Regulation in Diverse Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The rising demand for space cooling calls for innovative passive thermal systems. Traditional radiative cooling materials lack efficiency and alignment with cooling needs, limiting their energy‐saving. A smart film (PFSF) that integrates radiative cooling, reflectance tuning, and phase transition, offering adaptable temperature control across climates ...

Suitability of Natura 2000 sites for threatened freshwater species under projected climate change

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 1872-1887, December 2022., 2022
Abstract As part of the world's largest coordinated network of protected areas, Natura 2000, European Union member states designate special areas of conservation (SACs) to maintain or achieve favourable conservation status for imperilled aquatic species listed under Annex II of the Habitats Directive.
