Responsive Materials, EarlyView.We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Long‐Term Morphodynamic Responses to Flood Diversion in the Lower Kano River, Japan
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fluvial morphodynamics—the interaction between water flow, sediment transport, and channel morphology—is a central concern in sustainable river management. However, the long‐term effects of flood diversion remain underexplored. This study investigated the decadal‐scale morphodynamic responses of the lower Kano River in Japan following the ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Salmonid fishes typically express anadromy. During their juvenile riverine emigration, their downstream movements can be inhibited by hydropower schemes that entrain fish in their intakes. Here, the riverine migration success of smolts of brown trout Salmo trutta (“trout smolt”) and Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts (“salmon smolt”) was ...

Can Environmental Markets Pay for More Sustainable Farm Dams? A Cost–Benefit Analysis
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Farm dams are widespread artificial waterbodies that play a critical role in agricultural water security. Enhancing these systems through sustainable interventions such as fencing, hardened access points, and revegetation can improve water quality and deliver carbon and biodiversity co‐benefits.
