Shaping Function: Polymeric 3D Systems With Unconventional Geometries for Biomedical Applications

Small, Volume 22, Issue 33, 12 June 2026.
Particle shape is a key design parameter governing biological interactions. Advances in fabrication enable precise control over anisotropy and compartmentalization, allowing modulation of cellular uptake, transport, and biodistribution, ultimately enhancing therapeutic performance. ABSTRACT Polymer geometry is a primary determinant of physical behavior

Deterministic Factors Overwhelm Stochastic Environmental Fluctuations as Drivers of Jellyfish Outbreaks. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Jellyfish outbreaks are increasingly viewed as a deterministic response to escalating levels of environmental degradation and climate extremes. However, a comprehensive understanding of the influence of deterministic drivers and stochastic environmental ...

Coastal aquaculture ponds represent a notable source of the blooming jellyfish Aurelia coerulea

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The frequent occurrence of Aurelia coerulea medusae in coastal waters poses a serious threat to power plants and fisheries, emphasizing the importance of early jellyfish bloom detection. Owing to the complex life cycle of jellyfish and the limitations of

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Synthetic pelagic biomass size spectra of the tropical and subtropical Atlantic

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Synthetic normalized biomass size spectra (NBSS) comprising non‐synoptically sampled phytoplankton, meso‐ and macrozooplankton, and micronekton including mesopelagic fishes were explored to analyze pelagic community structure in seven regions of the tropical and the subtropical Atlantic representative of different water bodies (NE Brazil shelf,

Jellyfish‐Derived Activated Carbon: Synthesis, Characterization, and Adsorption Performance

Israel Journal of Chemistry, Volume 66, Issue 3, May 2026.
This research introduces a circular economy solution for environmental water cleanup by transforming invasive jellyfish biomass into high‐quality activated carbon. Through pyrolysis and KOH activation, the created porous material efficiently removes methylene blue and lead from water.

Reframing jellyfish perception from “enemies” to “helpers” through Ocean Literacy

Frontiers in Marine Science
Despite covering three-quarters of Earth’s surface and comprising 99% of its habitable space, the ocean remains underrepresented in formal education, contributing to widespread Ocean Literacy (OL) deficits.
