A New Lidar‐Based Observational Estimate for a Short‐Term Longwave High‐Cloud Feedback
Abstract High clouds play a substantial role in modulating the Earth's top‐of‐atmosphere radiative energy budget. Models project that changes in high‐cloud altitude and area in response to warming will have a net warming effect within the tropics. Yet, to our knowledge, a robust global observational constraint of a short‐term cloud feedback associated ...

Optomechanical frequency combs are generated in high‐Q microbubble cavities by simultaneous ultrasound and laser excitation, arising from nonlinear coupling between optomechanical modes and ultrasonically driven mechanical oscillations. Comb spacing and intensity are tunable through acoustic and optical parameters, whereas the optical spring effect ...

Compact Fourier‐Transform Spectrometer on Thin‐Film Lithium Niobate via Mode‐Circulating Modulation
Schematic diagram of the proposed compact on‐chip Fourier‐transform spectrometer on thin‐film lithium niobate that exploits mode‐circulating electro‐optic modulation, in which guided light is sequentially converted among multiple spatial modes to accumulate multiple phase modulation events within a single physical modulation arm.

Cteno‐Bot: An Untethered Metachronally Swimming Robot With Magnetoactive Propulsors
We present Cteno‐bot, an untethered ctenophore‐inspired robot which swims using metachronally coordinated appendages. A single mechanism controls up to 216 magnetoactive propulsors via a dynamically varying magnetic field. We show that the swimming speed of the robot can be increased without a corresponding increase in power requirement, simply by ...

Trait‐Based Drivers of Host Specificity in Freshwater Mussel–Fish Parasitic Interactions
Freshwater mussels (Unionidae) rely on an obligate parasitic larval stage on fish hosts, yet their host specificity remains poorly understood in a broader ecological and evolutionary context. By integrating phylogenetic, life‐history, and host‐use data, we show that host phylogenetic specificity is conserved but varies systematically with mussel life ...
