Animating blossom: Time‐lapse to encourage plant awareness in the YouTube era

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse videos can effectively capture key traits of flower blossoms, such as color, 3D structure, and temporal changes, making them valuable complements to herbarium specimens and other botanical collections. Despite the abundance of such videos on YouTube, most provide no ecological and botanical insights.

Deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and improved YOLOv9 for efficient benthos detection: a case study at Lake Hamana, Japan

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a UAV‐based framework that integrates deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and an enhanced YOLO detector to improve centimetre‐scale benthic organism monitoring. Using hermit crabs in Lake Hamana, a coastal lagoon in Japan, as a case study, the method substantially enhanced small‐object detection performance ...

Embodied, Enacted, and Multimodal: Exploring Science Teachers’ Metaphors in Authentic Classroom Contexts

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, science education research has extensively examined the role of metaphors in teaching and learning science. However, much of the existing research has focused on verbal manifestations of metaphors, thereby overlooking aspects of metaphors that may occur in non‐verbal form. This study reconceptualises metaphors as dynamic

From Intention to Practice in Hotel Food Sustainability: A Behavioural Analysis in Central Portugal

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the commitment of hotel Food and Beverage (F&B) departments in Central Portugal to sustainable food practices from a behavioural perspective. We develop and test the Commitment Analysis of Sustainable Hotel Food Practices model, which integrates cognitive (knowledge), affective and attitudinal determinants and links them to

The Role of Awareness in Sustainable Construction Materials Uptake in Developing Economies: Evidence From Nigeria

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable Construction Materials (SCM) are crucial for reducing lifecycle emissions in the built environment, yet their adoption remains limited in many developing economies, such as Nigeria. This study investigates how awareness influences the adoption of SCM among professionals in Nigeria's Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)

Designing “Korean” Kimchi: Speculative Configuration of Distance and Commodity Value in the Chinese Kimchi Industry

open access: yesEconomic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Chinese kimchi industry, manufacturers employ product names, photographs, and logistical strategies to promote their kimchi's “Koreanness.” So, what makes their kimchi “Korean,” and how does its Koreanness formulate kimchi's commodity value?

Defects That Magnetize Beyond Monolayer PtSe2

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The presence of a complex point defect consisting of a Pt vacancy (black circle) and a PtSe antisite (red circle) revives and increases the quenched magnetism in bilayer PtSe2. Magnetic properties can be further modulated by the presence of an Se vacancy (blue circle), which can convert the ferromagnetic behavior into antiferromagnetic when it occurs ...

Photo‐induced proton release of spiropyran‐derived nanomaterials for mRNA delivery in hard‐to‐transfect cells

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Light‐induced proton release from spiropyran can disrupt the stability of both nanoparticles and endosomal membranes, thereby promoting endosomal escape and ultimately enhancing transfection performance. Abstract Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapy has been explored as a treatment for various genetic disorders. Significant progress has been made in developing

High‐Resolution Mapping of Discharge Product in Li─O2 Batteries

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Li─O2 batteries promise exceptional energy density, but have several factors limiting performance, such as poor rate performance. To understand rate limitations, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy and X‐ray nano‐computed tomography were employed to map the distribution of discharge products in discharged air ...
