Summary of Contemporary Research on the Use of Chemical Dispersants for Deep-Sea Oil Spills

, 2019
Mitigation options for deep-sea oil spills are indeed few. In the open ocean, far from land, booming, burning, and mechanical pickup of oil at the sea surface may be of limited value due to wave and wind conditions.

Heat‐to‐Electricity Conversion Using Barium Strontium Titanate Multilayer Capacitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lead‐free barium strontium titanate multilayer capacitors convert waste heat into electricity via the Olsen electro‐thermodynamic cycle. These capacitors achieve an energy density of 3.7 J cm−3, comparable to the performance of lead‐based ceramics. Their high dielectric strength and broad operating temperature window below 100°C make them practical for

Oil Spills Around the World

, 2022
Oil spills are more common and occur in many different ways. Thousands of oil spills occur every year. Most of these spills are small, for example when oil spills while refueling ships. But these spills can still cause damage, especially if they occur in

Entorhinal Astrocyte Transplants Restore Spatial Exploration and Alleviate Amyloid‐Beta Pathology in Alzheimer's Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired MEC astrocytic Ca2+ signaling is associated with fragmented spatial exploration in AD mice. Region‐specific glial progenitor transplantation generates engrafted astrocytes that are accompanied by improved AQP4 polarization, reduced amyloid‐β‐associated pathology, attenuated neuroinflammation, preserved synaptic integrity, and ameliorated ...
