Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Regolith samples from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu were stowed and delivered to Earth in the OSIRIS‐REx spacecraft's Sample Return Capsule (SRC). We applied multiple analytical techniques to study the components of the post‐flight SRC, with a focus on assessing the conditions and any contaminants to which the Bennu samples were exposed ...

Humidity‐driven shape morphing enhances fog harvesting in porous cactus spines
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Spine straightening and water collection during fog exposure in Turbinicarpus alonsoi. Summary Cacti develop spines instead of conventional leaves, which often serve as mechanical defence against herbivores. However, some cactus species grow porous and flexible spines, suggesting fundamentally different functions.

Quantitative Phylogenomics of Within-Species Mitogenome Variation: Monte Carlo and Non-Parametric Analysis of Phylogeographic Structure among Discrete Transatlantic Breeding Areas of Harp Seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Phylogenomic analysis of highly-resolved intraspecific phylogenies obtained from complete mitochondrial DNA genomes has had great success in clarifying relationships within and among human populations, but has found limited application in other wild ...

Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations
Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 11, Page 4085-4098, November 2026.ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of

At‐nest drone monitoring causes minimal behavioural disturbance in breeding Eurasian Curlew
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 4, October–December 2026.Incubating Eurasian Curlew taken with DJI Mavic 3T optical camera at a height of 25 m. Drone‐based monitoring of breeding Curlew in lowland England caused minimal behavioural disturbance. Although incubating birds frequently looked up at the drone, displacement from the nest was rare, suggesting that drones can provide an effective low‐impact ...
