Observing the effectiveness of stewards and cameras in promoting behavior for beach‐nesting bird conservation: A mixed‐methods approach

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding the factors that influence human behavior is crucial for effective wildlife conservation strategies. This study examines the impact of conservation stewards and cameras on beachgoers' adherence to conservation guidelines designed to protect beach‐nesting birds.

Processing and release of endogenous immunogenic peptide signals

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 3, May 2026.
SUMMARY In both animals and plants, small secreted peptides known as cytokines and phytocytokines mediate local and systemic communication during immune and stress responses. These signaling molecules are typically synthesized as inactive precursors that require proteolytic processing to become active.

On‐Demand Activation of Thin Alginate Shell Encapsulated Volatile Liquid for Untethered Pneumatic Soft Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 8, 22 April 2026.
Phase‐changing liquids enable untethered pneumatic actuation in soft robotics but suffer from volatility and storage challenges. This work reports a simple method to encapsulate Novec 7000 within micron‐thin alginate shells via in situ injection and ionic crosslinking.

Impact of Seasonal Composition on the Long‐Term Performance of Post‐Consumer Recycled Polypropylene

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 15, April 15, 2026.
Ten batches of post‐consumer polypropylene recyclate were examined over a period of 15 months. Despite identical MFR and density specifications, there were significant differences in their composition, affecting mechanical performance. Elongation at break and crack resistance varied particularly strongly.
