Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Damaging Surface Hail in Simulations of Satellite‐Detected Hailstorms in Australia's Tropics
Satellite detections of hail signatures are uncertain in the tropics, where the deep troposphere and a warm, humid sub‐cloud environment increase the chances that ice detected aloft will melt before it reaches the surface.

A new 1-D forced time-dependent model version with the hail size spectrum which includes only hail sized particles (larger than 0.5 cm in diameter; hereafter called realistic hail spectrum) was tested against its version which treats the hail size ...

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN HAIL EVENTS AND RADAR ECHOES IN TRANSYLVANIA [PDF]
Over 500 hail events reported across Transylvania by meteorological and hydrological stations, with several large hail events (i.e. hail diameter ≥ 2 cm), were studied during 2004-2014.

Charge Storage and Dark Photocatalysis in Multivariate Ti‐Based Metal‐Organic Frameworks
The mixed‐linker series of the titanium‐based metal–organic framework COK‐47 enables systematic tuning of photoresponsiveness and (dark) photocatalytic activity, deepening our understanding of structure‐property‐function relationships. Tailored metal‐to‐ligand charge transfer between the secondary building units (metal‐oxo layers and organic linkers ...

Cloud Microphysical Properties of a Typical Spring Hail Event in Yunnan
Synoptic conditions and microphysical formation mechanisms for hail events form the basis for investigating hail suppression technology. There are few relevant studies on hail formation mechanisms in spring in southern China.

Severe-hail detection with C-band dual-polarisation radars using convolutional neural networks [PDF]
Radar has consistently been proven to be the most reliable source of information for the remote detection of hail within storms in real time. Currently, existing hail detection techniques have limited ability to clearly distinguish storms that produce ...

Bacteria‐Trained, MnO2‐Armored Dendritic Cells for Immunotherapy
MnO2‐armored, bacteria‐trained dendritic cells undergo tumor‐responsive mechanical and immunological transformation. The nanocoating masks immune ligands and maintains a mechanically stiff, quiescent state during circulation, while the tumor microenvironment removes the armor and restores cellular deformability and immune accessibility.

Future changes in severe hail across Europe, including regional emergence of warm-type thunderstorms
Hail is a major threat to agriculture, properties, and people, yet little is known about changes to hail with anthropogenic warming. Here, we use pan-European convection-permitting simulations, and a contemporary hail proxy benefiting from simulated ...
