Below-cloud scavenging of aerosol by rain: a review of numerical modelling approaches and sensitivity simulations with mineral dust in the Met Office's Unified Model [PDF]
Theoretical models of the below-cloud scavenging (BCS) of aerosol by rain yield scavenging rates that are 1–2 orders of magnitude smaller than observations and associated empirical schemes for submicron-sized aerosol.

Programmable Motion of Optically Gated Electrically Powered Engineered Microswimmer Robots. [PDF]
A programmable microswimmer leveraging induced‐charge electrophoresis (ICEP) is presented for propulsion and optically modulated electrokinetic propulsion (OMEP) for steering. ZnO‐coated sections enable optical torque generation under uniform illumination, simplifying control.

Occurrence of the driftfish Nomeus gronovii (Scombriformes: Stromateoidei: Nomeidae) in the sandy beach surf zone of southern Brazil [PDF]
We record a single juvenile specimen of a driftfish, Nomeus gronovii (Gmelin, 1789), in a shallow surf zone in the southern Brazilian waters. This is the southernmost record of N. gronovii on the South Atlantic.
