Origami‐Inspired Structural Design for Aquatic‐Terrestrial Amphibious Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work presents a lightweight amphibious origami robot actuated by a single shape memory alloy wire. A rigid foldable origami structure with displacement amplification enables efficient terrestrial crawling and aquatic swimming. The addition of fan‐shaped units allows controllable turning in both environments.

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

, 2007 Het speerpunt van het Nederlandse natuurbeleid is de invulling van de zogenaamde Ecologische Hoofdstructuur (EHS). Voor de zandgronden streeft men veelal naar het herstel van het oorspronkelijke heidelandschap. Daarvoor worden op grote schaal landbouwgronden aangekocht. Voorwaarde voor herstel van het heidelandschap zijn voedselarme omstandigheden. Om

Sialic Acid Sensing via Molecularly Imprinted Polymer on Laser‐Induced Graphene
Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.Sialic acid is an important biomarker for oral and overall health. Salivary levels of sialic acid are linked with oral cancer and other diseases. We develop a point‐of‐care sensor for sialic acid, based on molecularly imprinted aminophenylboronic acid electropolymerized onto laser‐induced graphene.

Land-Use Change and Carbon Sinks [PDF]
When and if the United States chooses to implement a greenhouse gas reduction program, it will be necessary to decide whether carbon sequestration policies — such as those that promote forestation and discourage deforestation — should be part of the ...
