A low‐surface‐area hard carbon anode is synthesized from corncob waste through a two‐step process. The material treated at the highest temperature exhibits reduced irreversible reactions and enhances sodium storage performance, due to optimized porosity and structural order, highlighting a sustainable strategy for advanced sodium‐ion battery materials.

Phenotypic and Molecular Characterisation of Silicon Uptake and Deposition in Festuca arundinacea [PDF]
Silicon (Si) is taken up from the soil as monosilicilic acid by plant roots, transported to leaves and deposited as phytoliths, amorphous silica (SiO2) bodies, which are a key component of anti-herbivore defense in grasses. Silicon transporters have been

Migratory Songbirds as Potential Ectozoochorous Protist Dispersal Vectors
We demonstrate that migratory songbirds carry diatoms (Bacillariophyta) in their plumage, revealing an unexpected avian–algal association. All seven bird specimens we examined contained diatoms—224 frustules representing 25 genera and 9 orders, primarily freshwater, benthic pennates—some retaining chloroplasts prior to digestion and mounting (implying ...

Abstract Loess tablelands, plateau‐like landforms built of wind‐blown dust, store large volumes of sediment on its path from bedrock sources to sedimentary basins. Long‐term storage of organic carbon also occurs in buried soils beneath loess tableland summits.

ABSTRACT Agropastoralism has been a widespread subsistence strategy in Central Asia from prehistory to the present. While significant research has aimed at understanding past agropastoral communities in the region, reconstructing a generalized economic model remains challenging due to the complex topographic and ecological conditions, as well as its ...

MioVeg1: A Global Middle Miocene Vegetation Reconstruction for Climate Modeling
Abstract Climate models require boundary condition information, such as vegetation and soil distributions because they influence the mean state climate, and feedbacks can significantly influence regional climate and climate sensitivity to CO2 forcing.
