Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 3, 3 February 2026.Bioinspired slippery surfaces combining the hydrophobic–hydrophilic patterns of beetle backs and the lubricated structure of pitcher plants enable efficient water harvesting. The patterned hydrophilic regions promote droplet nucleation and coalescence, while the infused lubricant ensures rapid droplet transport, providing a robust strategy for ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.Abstract Line‐shaped contrails formed behind aircraft can evolve into broadly spread and long‐living cirrus clouds under favorable conditions. These contrail‐cirrus contribute significantly to the aviation‐induced radiative forcing. While past modeling studies have examined contrail‐cirrus across various atmospheric and aircraft‐type dependent ...
