The grazing impact of megaherbivores on sediment accumulation and stabilization functions of seagrass meadows in a subtropical coral reef lagoon

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrasses thrive in shallow lagoons between land and fringing coral reefs, serving as a buffer that mitigates the propagation of environmental stressors from land to reefs. However, mass grazing by megaherbivores poses a significant threat to seagrass loss, impacting the sustainability of tropical coastal habitats. Despite the urgency of this

Programmable Dual‐Wavelength Switchable All‐fiber Laser via Hybrid Optical Amplifier in the NIR‐III Region for Multi‐Contrast Photoacoustic Microscopy

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A novel dual‐wavelength switchable all‐fiber laser operating in the NIR‐III region, utilizing a hybrid optical amplifier, is presented. This laser generates high power‐spectral‐density pulses with flexible pulse widths and high switching frequencies, enabling efficient multi‐contrast photoacoustic microscopy for the detection of microplastics in ...

Bio‐Based Nanofiber Membranes for Effective Air Filtration: Fabrication and Evaluation of Flame‐Retardant Behavior, Mechanical Properties, and Filtration Performance

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
The membranes are fabricated from a biodegradable polymer and a bio‐based and inorganic flame‐retardant material in optimized electrospinning conditions to control flammability. Hydrogen bonds between the applied materials improved the mechanical properties and potential exposure to fire. These membranes offer higher filtration quality compared to that

Red Mud as an Additive in the Extrusion of Protein‐Based Porous Materials

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Protein‐based foams from agricultural by‐products were altered using red mud, a waste from alumina production, as an additive. Red mud significantly increased elasticity, acting as a plasticizer and redox agent. Strain at break reached 190% in high‐gluten content foams with raw red mud, demonstrating red mud's potential as a sustainable additive for ...

Litter on Wheels: An Ocean Garbage Art Car

open access: yes, 2018
In the Fall term of 2018, Gettysburg College seniors Bill LeConey and Will Gibson created the world\u27s first Ocean Garbage Art Car, by covering an old Ford truck with plastic bottles (and other trash commonly found in our oceans), to raise awareness ...
