The Controlling Factors and Prediction of Deep-Water Mass Transport Deposits in the Pliocene Qiongdongnan Basin, South China Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Large-scaled submarine slides or mass transport deposits (MTDs) widely occurred in the Pliocene Qiongdongnan Basin, South China Sea. The good seismic mapping and distinctive topography, as well as the along-striking variation in sediment supply, make it ...

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Grain size of Quaternary sediments in the continental shelf-margin: implications for paleo-environment in the Northwestern South China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionThe quantitative distribution of grain size of sediments could imply the hydrodynamic conditions as well as terrestrial material composition; and thus, it is indicative of sea-level fluctuations, regional sources and climate changes.

Nano Borophene as a Programmable 2D Scaffold for Organized DNA Assembly and Long‐Range Energy Transfer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Borophene is introduced as a programmable 2D bio‐interface that organizes DNA through dual boron–sulfur and nucleobase interactions. This molecular architecture enables efficient long‐range nanosurface energy transfer, establishing new design principles for functional nano–bio interfaces and amplification‐free optical biosensing.

Types of Gas Hydrates in Marine Environments and Their Thermodynamic Characteristics

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2006
The hydrates in marine environment can be grouped into two categories,diffusion gas hydrates and vent gas hydrates. The diffusion gas hydrates occur widely in an area where bottom simulation reflector (BSR) was recorded in seismic profiles, and is a ...

Nitride MXenes Beyond Carbides: Bridging the Gap Between Computational Prediction and Experimental Realization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nitride MXenes remain constrained by a persistent gap between computational prediction and experimental realization. This Review identifies the thermodynamic, kinetic, and chemical barriers limiting their synthesis, critically evaluates emerging fabrication routes, and proposes a multidimensional computational‐experimental framework to accelerate the ...

Biodegradable 3D‐Printable and Coatable Antifouling Composites for Marine Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Marine biofouling damages submerged surfaces and raises greenhouse gas emissions. Biodegradable antifouling biocomposites were developed by hot‐mixing beeswax, Tween 80, and calcium stearate or stearic acid. Adjusting the component ratio enables processing via hot‐pressing, 3D‐printing, or dip‐coating.
