Increasing artificial light at night enhances salmonid predator foraging efficiency in an urbanized lake

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Artificial light at night (ALAN) poses a threat to ecosystems globally. It includes both direct and indirect light, or skyglow, which occurs when ALAN scatters in the atmosphere, extending beyond its original source. We analyzed ALAN trends in Lake Washington, WA, from 2014 to 2023 using Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS ...

Covalently Immobilized Lignin–Xanthene Conjugates for Persistent Surface Photochemistry and Self‐Sterilizing Interfaces Under Ambient Visible Light

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Bio‐derived lignin–Eosin Y macromolecular networks are developed as visible‐light‐responsive self‐sterilizing coatings that generate reactive oxygen species without leaching. The spray‐coated photopolymerized surfaces exhibit durable antibacterial and antiviral activity under ambient light for extended periods, demonstrating a scalable and sustainable ...

Effect of Accelerated Aging on the Performances of 3D Printed Polylactic Acid‐Polyhydroxyalkanoate Specimens

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, Volume 66, Issue 8, Page 6137-6149, August 2026.
The accelerated aging behaviours on the FFF‐fabricated PLA‐PHA Specimens. ABSTRACT Despite the increasing use of biodegradable polymers in additive manufacturing, their long‐term durability remains insufficiently understood. The aim of this study to investigate the influence of accelerated aging on the performance of fused filament fabrication‐printed ...

Anisotropic Diffuse Radiation Model of Photovoltaic Systems

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 34, Issue 8, Page 987-993, August 2026.
Monthly incident diffuse energy—isotropic and anisotropic models. ABSTRACT The diffuse solar radiation is a component of the global solar radiation and may contribute a significant percentage (50% and above in some locations) of the electric output energy of Photovoltaic (PV) systems.

Sustainably Synthesized Plasma Encapsulants for Organic Solar Cells With Enhanced Stability Under Harsh Moisture and UV Exposure

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Plasma–polymer encapsulation significantly improves the moisture and UVA stability of organic solar cells, enabling prolonged efficiency retention and partial postexposure recovery. Characterization of the developed sustainable encapsulation thin films reveals a hydrocarbon‐rich protective network and UV‐induced oxidation mechanisms, providing new ...

CbPM Estimates of Net Primary Production in the North Atlantic From Profiling Floats and Satellites Diverge Seasonally Due To Fluorescence and Vertical Extrapolation Effects

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Marine net primary production (NPP), defined as the difference between gross production and phytoplankton respiration, is often estimated using algorithms applied to remote sensing data. While assumptions are needed to extend surface satellite observations through depth, some NPP algorithms, like the Carbon‐based Productivity Model (CbPM ...

Mars' O+ ${\mathbf{O}}^{+}$ and O2+ ${\mathbf{O}}_{\mathbf{2}}^{+}$ Ion Escape During Disappearing Solar Wind Events

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Disappearing solar wind events (DSWEs), intervals when the solar wind proton density <1 cm−3 ${\text{cm}}^{-3}$, represent one extreme of the Mars solar wind interaction. Using data from NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission from February 2016 to May 2024, 154 orbits across 90 unique days were identified.

The ASTE‐BGC Data‐Assimilative Regional Ocean Biogeochemical Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We present a data‐assimilative regional ocean biogeochemical model, ASTE‐BGC, which simulates the physical and biogeochemical state of the North Atlantic Ocean from 2002 to 2017. Model physics are provided by a physical state estimate (ASTE), which assimilates O(109) in situ and satellite‐based observations over the model domain and time ...

MAUSAM: An Observations‐Focused Assessment of Global AI Weather Prediction Models During the South Asian Monsoon

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Past evaluation of artificial intelligence (AI) weather prediction has primarily relied on reanalyses, which can obscure important deficiencies due to prevailing biases in reanalyses themselves. Here, we present MAUSAM (Measuring AI Uncertainty during South Asian Monsoon), an evaluation of seven leading AI‐based prediction systems—FourCastNet,
