What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

Review of the fauna associated with wild and farmed mussels and oysters in the Mediterranean

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mussels and oysters are important ecosystem engineers which modify the physical and chemical characteristics of the environment and create habitats that support highly diverse associated communities. In the Mediterranean Sea, the native Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis, together the ...

Dear NSF: Scientific Ocean Drilling Is Necessary for Climate Studies, Natural Hazards Research, and Inspiring Future Scientists

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, 2023
This letter, written by two early career researchers, highlights their urgent concerns regarding the future of scientific ocean drilling (SciOD) research following the retirement of the JOIDES Resolution (JR) at the end of the 2024 fiscal year.

Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

B, N‐Co Doped Porous Carbon Nanotubes Supported Cu Single Atoms and B‐Doped Cu Nanoparticles for High‐Performance Electrocatalytic NO3RR and Zn‐Nitrate Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
The ToC image shows a porous B, N‐doped carbon nanotube decorated with B‐doped Cu nanoparticles for nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion. The unique structure enhances charge transport, promotes the adsorption and activation of key intermediates, alters the rate‐determining step, suppresses hydrogen evolution, and improves NH3 yield and Faradaic efficiency ...

Major engineering breakthrough of Well XA‐1, the deepest ten‐thousand‐meter well in a global sedimentary basin

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Well XA‐1, completed at a true vertical depth of 11 156 m in the Shawan Sag of the Junggar Basin, is the deepest predominantly near‐vertical well drilled in a sedimentary basin. The figure shows the basin's tectonic framework and well location (a), a structural cross‐section spanning the Shawan Sag and adjacent uplifts (b), and the stratigraphic column

Global patterns of treeline predictability and the gap between the forest and the treeline

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The alpine treeline is the highest elevation at which trees can grow, which is assumed to be controlled by temperature and globally predictable. However, many upper forest limits (UFLs) do not reach this elevation, due natural factors and human disturbance.

Counter‐ion modulation: A facile approach toward quenching‐resistant multi‐resonance emitters for efficient narrowband electroluminescence

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Quenching‐resistant carbocation‐based multi‐resonance emitters are developed via a facile counter‐ion modulation strategy, giving much narrowed emission bands under high doping concentrations, and greatly improved device efficiency for solution‐processed narrowband OLEDs by simply increasing the size of counter ions.

Multiphase Tectonic Process With Slab Dynamics in the Northern East China Sea Shelf Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Megasequence 1 characterised by Palaeocene extension and differential subsidence driven by the rollback of the subducting Izanagi Plate. Megasequence 2 records a kinematic reorganisation of the East Asian margin, transition from a rifting to a compressional regime.
