Study on the composite fracture characteristics of filling and reinforcing cracked rock mass after high temperature damage

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Cement infill shares compressive and shear stresses during loading, while interfacial friction hinders crack propagation and reduces stress concentration, improving the rock's load‐bearing capacity. Failure modes vary with crack inclination. Unfilled specimens show four modes.

High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.

Fe‐Free Photocatalysis‐Self‐Fenton System for Ultraefficient Water Purification Enabled by Carbon Nitride With Strong Built‐in Electric Field

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This study reports a photocatalytic H₂O₂ production rate of 14.9 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹, representing a 22.2‐fold enhancement. Additionally, the Fe‐free PSFs achieved complete degradation of 100 mg·L⁻¹ tetracycline within 10 min across a wide pH range. ABSTRACT Photocatalytic‐self‐Fenton system (PSFs) hold great promise for water purification through in situ ...

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

The effect of trait choice on hybrid species distribution model projections under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) have been increasingly combined with thermal performance data to enhance their transferability and to provide a physiological explanation for the predicted geographic patterns. Yet, while it is widely acknowledged that thermal sensitivities may vary among biological traits, it remains largely unexplored to what extent

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

Bioinspired Janus Evaporator for Efficient Desalination of Saline‐Alkali and Seawater Through Photothermal‐Capillary Effects

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work combines textile technology to ingeniously integrate a hydrophobic PP/MXene photothermal sheath with a hydrophilic cotton core into functionalized yarns, successfully developing a Janus core‐sheath evaporator (PM‐CSY‐F). The evaporator demonstrates outstanding evaporation rates and efficient desalination efficiency when applied to treating ...

A Highly Stable Zinc‐Mimosinate Metal–Organic Framework for Controlled Agrochemical Delivery

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the design of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as agrochemicals constructed from active building blocks. The highly robust GR‐MOF‐25 is assembled from the natural herbicide L‐mimosine and Zn2+ ions, combining herbicidal, micronutrient, and antibacterial properties.
