Microclimate mediates the strength and direction of avian biotic interactions

Ecography, EarlyView.
Theory predicts that the strength and direction of species interactions can shift from being competitive in benign environments toward being facilitative in stressful environments. However, the environmental context dependency of species interactions has rarely been tested in animal communities.

Continental scale metagenomics reveals Microcystis‐induced synchrony among aquatic taxa is exacerbated by trophic cascades

Ecography, EarlyView.
Harmful Microcystis proliferation severely threatens aquatic ecosystems globally, but its impacts on food‐web stability remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed 1309 metagenomic samples from freshwater ecosystems across China to investigate how Microcystis abundance affects synchrony among taxa in multi‐trophic food webs (from bacteriophages to ...

Global threats, local opportunities: ice‐related landforms provide refugia for high‐elevation plants and arthropods

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ice‐related landforms in mountain areas have been hypothesized to play a key role in the survival of cold‐adapted species threatened by climate change. However, our understanding of such landforms acting as refugia remains speculative. Here we analyse occurrence data, collected through a standardized sampling at 471 sampling points across the European ...

Tuning Colloidal Stability and Photothermal Conversion Efficiency of Graphite Nanofluids via Anionic‐Nonionic Surfactant Engineering

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Graphite nanofluids were stabilized using a mixed SDS/Tween 80 surfactant system. The optimized formulation exhibited enhanced colloidal stability, red‐shifted UV–Vis absorption, and improved photothermal conversion under solar irradiation. Achieving stable dispersion of graphite flakes (GFs) in aqueous media remains a critical challenge in developing ...

Anion‐Synergistic Regulation of Solvation‐Layer Chemistry in Nonflammable Electrolytes Enables Highly Safe and Durable Sodium Metal Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study establishes a new anion‐synergistic solvation chemistry framework for directing interfacial reactions and stabilizing sodium metal anodes. Uncontrolled dendrite growth, accompanied by thermal runaway in sodium metal, remains a critical bottleneck for practical applications of sodium metal batteries (SMBs).
