Liquid Metal Microrobots for Magnetically Guided Transvascular Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid metal‐based microrobots combine magnetic steering, intrinsic X‐ray visibility and softness, to navigate blood vessels even against flow. Under clinically relevant magnetic fields, liquid metal microrobots roll along vessel walls, cross endothelial barriers, and accumulate in target tissues.

Determinants of Land Use in the Densely Populated Kigezi Highlands of Southwestern Uganda [PDF]

open access: yes
We use a multinominal logit model to examine the determinants of plot abandonment (unintentional fallows) and long fallows (intentional fallows) in order to propose policy interventions that lead to optimal and sustainable management of land use systems ...

Droplet Electricity Generators With Maximized Energy Collection Zone Enabled by Aloe‐Inspired Midrib and Cuticle

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An Aloe‐pinspired droplet electricity generator (A‐DEG) overcomes the limited energy collection zone of conventional DEGs by guiding impact droplets through a channeling midrib and artificial cuticle. The channeling midrib induces uni‐directional droplet spreading, while the artificial cuticle on the midrib further reinforces this behavior through its ...

Investments in Land Conservation in the Ethiopian Highlands: A Household Plot-Level Analysis of the Roles of Poverty, Tenure Security, and Market Inventives [PDF]

open access: yes
Land degradation is a major problem undermining land productivity in the highlands of Ethiopia. This study explores the factors that affect farm households’ decisions at the plot level to invest in land conservation and how much to invest, focusing on ...

Undercoordinated Molybdenum Catalysts Enable Ultrafast Quasi‐Solid Sulfur Chemistry in Sodium‐Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An unsaturated coordination chemistry strategy activates a quasi‐solid‐state redox pathway by strengthening NaPSs adsorption and accelerating redox conversion kinetics, thereby overcoming the kinetic bottlenecks that limit high‐rate performance. In situ transmission electron microscopy, combined with newly developed Na‐ion diffusion descriptors ...

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination

The Cost of Exemption from Encumbrance of Property Ownership (on the Example of the Cost Indicators of Land Plots)

open access: yesФинансы: теория и практика
This article is devoted to the study of cost indicators in relation to “problematic” land plots which have been built with unauthorized construction, contain emergency buildings, or are polluted by waste.

The Effect of Malaria on Settlement and Land Use: Evidence from the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

open access: yes
We estimate the effect of malaria on settlement and land use patterns in the Brazilian Amazon, where potential settlers were randomly assigned to plots in a newly opened settlement area.
