The ‘Lifeboat Hypothesis’: Aquatic Microplastics in a Warming World—Climate‐Resilient Refugia for Bacterial Pathogens

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Lifeboat hypothesis proposes that microplastics act as mobile microbial refugia, buffering environmental stress and enabling persistence, adaptation and dispersal of microorganisms, including pathogens and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) determinants.

Dinoflagellate responses to nutrients and mangrove leaf organic matter in the bioluminescent Mangrove Lagoon, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1240-1250, August 2026.
Abstract Bioluminescent bays (biobays) are uncommon coastal ecosystems featuring dense populations of dinoflagellates, often found in mangrove‐ringed lagoons with long water retention times and high organic matter (OM) levels. Although mangroves are associated with high dinoflagellate abundance, it remains uncertain how inorganic nutrients compare with

Potassium isotopic compositions and exposure ages of evolved and silica‐rich achondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2140-2162, August 2026.
Abstract Some of the oldest igneous rocks in the Solar System include evolved and silica‐rich achondrites that originate from parent bodies less than 1000 km in diameter, referred to as planetesimals. While Earth was initially in a molten state and required continental crust formation and plate tectonics to generate andesite bulk compositions, evolved ...

A Global Review of Microplastic Contamination in Groundwater: Empirical Evidence and Latin American Perspectives

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 357-366, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of microplastics (MPs) in groundwater has emerged as a significant concern due to their environmental impact and the threat they pose to vital water resources, groundwater being one of the most important freshwater sources in the world.

Sustainable Metal Mixture Separation From E‐Waste Leaching: Flow‐Based System Approach With Closed‐Loop Reutilization of Organic Ligands

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 14, 29 July 2026.
This paper reports a flow‐based liquid–liquid extraction system for the selective separation of copper from copper–silver leachates obtained from e‐waste. This process enhances sustainability and reduces solvent consumption. In addition, a ligand/solvent regeneration step is described, enabling copper back‐extraction, recycling of the organic ...
