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 ...

Recent Advances in Prussian Blue Analogs as Capacitive Deionization Electrode Materials: Fundamentals, Structure–Performance Relationships, and Design Strategies

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines the fundamental ion‐storage mechanisms, the structural chemistry, and redox behavior of Prussian blue analogs as Faradaic electrodes in capacitive deionization, their intrinsic limitations and engineering optimization strategies, and the critical materials‐to‐device considerations required to advance PBA‐based CDI ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Ceria Nanostructures Obtained by Hydrothermal Synthesis: Exploring the Experimental Parameter Landscape for Precise Morphology and Size Control

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Hydrothermal and microwave‐assisted syntheses enable systematic tuning of ceria nanostructure morphology. Chloride counter‐ions direct nanorod growth, while an acetate buffer yields uniform nanocubes whose size (14–26 nm) is tuned via the reactor filling ratio, with microwave heating significantly cutting reaction times to minutes while preserving high

A modular and programmable electrolyte platform: Covalently anchored thermochromic hydrogels for on‐demand electrochromic devices

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Developing stable, multifunctional hydrogel electrolytes without compromising performance presents a considerable challenge in the field. In this study, we introduce a material design strategy with broad applicability to combinations of functional polymeric segments, ionic monomers, and salts.

Heterogeneous Exhumation Mechanisms in Neoproterozoic Collisional Metamorphism: P–T Constraints From Pelotas and Punta del Este Terranes, Southern Brazil and Uruguay

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Petrography, thermobarometry, and pseudosection modelling reveal peak metamorphic conditions of 3–7.5 kbar and 520°C–800°C in Tonian‐Cryogenian orthogneisses of the Dom Feliciano Belt. Metamorphic field gradients of 27°C/km–39°C/km and variable exhumation mechanisms support correlation of these units as remnants of a Himalayan‐type Piratini Orogeny ...

Modeling the impacts of grazing management on livestock behavior and performance: A case study in the Peruvian Andes

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Our modeling study shows that livestock management strongly influences grazing behavior and animal performance in the Peruvian Andes. Furthermore, adjusting stocking rates and improving animal distribution can enhance forage intake and body condition while increasing forage biomass.

Antarctic soil microbiomes encode structurally conserved and phylogenetically diverse beta‐lactamases

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
An integrative metagenomic framework combining sequence, structural, and functional inference reveals a phylogenetically diverse and structurally conserved repertoire of putative beta‐lactamases across Antarctic soil microbiomes, with predominance of class A and subclass B3 enzymes and limited but detectable associations with mobile genetic elements ...

Warm‐wet transition restructures arid lake microbiomes and functional potential

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study summarizes how a long‐term warm‐dry to warm‐wet transition restructures microbiomes and functional potential in Lake Bosten, an arid lake in northwestern China. Warm‐wet hydroclimatic change increased water level and hydrological connectivity, while decreasing salinity and total nitrogen.

Hematological and Genotoxic Effects of Subchronic Oral Exposure to a Mancozeb‐Based Fungicide in Female Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive use of pesticides in modern agriculture has raised increasing concerns regarding the potential biological effects of repeated exposure to pesticide residues and commercial formulations. Mancozeb is a widely used ethylene‐bis‐dithiocarbamate fungicide; however, information on its hematological and genotoxic effects following ...
