Surface Chemical Analysis of Plastic Materials by X‐Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy: Understanding Weathering, Fragmentation and Contaminant Uptake in Marine Environments

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This Perspective demonstrates how X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) uncovers surface chemical changes in plastics, providing insight into weathering‐driven fragmentation and contaminant adsorption. The Perspective underscores XPS's pivotal role in elucidating fragmentation mechanisms, predicting pollutant–plastic interactions, and guiding ...

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found
