Monitoring mercury across the National Wildlife Refuge System using a biosentinel approach

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We measured mercury concentrations in 1,356 dragonfly larvae collected from 30 National Wildlife Refuges across the United States and found wide variability among refuges, spanning the full range reported for other protected lands. Using a management‐focused mercury impairment index, 80% of refuges contained sites classified as moderate or higher risk.

Does Palsa Thaw in Northern Finland Contribute to Remobilisation of Metals Accumulated in Peat Into Surface Waters?

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Photooxidation of 18‐Carbon Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids to Prepare Mono‐Hydroxylated Octadecanoids

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
We developed a fast and simple one‐step synthetic strategy to produce mono‐hydroxylated metabolites based on the photosensitized oxidation of 18‐carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). This approach could likely be extended to other PUFAs, suggesting that photosensitized oxidation could be employed to rapidly prepare hydroperoxides from multiple ...

Enzymatic Ring‐Opening Polymerization of ε‐Caprolactone in Novel Green Solvents: from Batch Systems to Continuous Flow Mesoreactors

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Multi‐gram synthesis of CaLB‐catalyzed ROP of ε‐CL in green organic media under flow conditions. ABSTRACT The transition toward sustainable alternatives in polymeric material production is a critical step in reducing the environmental impact of the traditional plastic industry.

3D Polymeric Nanonetworks: From Self‐Assembly to Advanced Fabrication

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review provides the first systematic cross‐method comparison of fabrication techniques for 3D polymeric nanonetworks. It evaluates five key strategies—block copolymer self‐assembly, hyper‐crosslinking, template‐assisted methods, 3D printing, and nanolithography—across critical metrics including resolution, throughput, scalability, and material ...

Sounds Sweet: Sound Reduplication in Brand Names Enhances Sweet Taste Expectations

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between brand name sounds and taste perception is an emerging area of interest in marketing research. This study aims to demonstrate the role of sound‐evoked cuteness in the expectation of sweet taste. Across seven studies (including two supplementary studies), our findings revealed that sound reduplication in brand names is ...
