Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are gaps and biases in our knowledge, including the choice of basibionts, the methods used, and the habitats ...

In Situ Bilayer Interphase Enables Air‐Stable Li Metal Anode for Long‐Term Li‐Air Batteries
An in situ formed bilayer SEI—featuring an Ag/LiF‐enriched inner backbone and a CF3‐dominated hydrophobic outer shell—enables fast/uniform Li+ transport and exceptional moisture‐air stability for Li metal. Lithium metal is an attractive anode for next‐generation high‐energy batteries, but its practical use is plagued by dendrite growth and parasitic ...
