Bergmann's rule: Why does body size increase with latitude?

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 830-843, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Bergmann's rule describes the tendency for endothermic body size to increase with latitude, a pattern often attributed to climatic factors. However, the underlying developmental and evolutionary mechanisms remain debated.

California Temperature Since 1520 CE Shows Interactions in Extremes of Heat, Drought, and Fire

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Summer maximum temperatures (Tmax ${T}_{\text{max}}$) in the Sierra Nevada have risen rapidly since the turn of the 20th century, especially above 1,500 m where trends in the south exceed 3°C century−1. To place this warming into context, we developed a 504‐year reconstruction of growing‐season (April–September) Tmax ${T}_{\text{max}}$ (1520 ...

Chemical modification of tannin/furanic rigid foams by isocyanates and polyurethanes

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2012
Tannin/furanic rigid foams were modified by either polymeric 4,4’ diphenylmethane diisocyanate (pMDI) or a one-component polyurethane still presenting reactive isocyanate groups (PUR).

Synthesis, Properties, Applications and Challenges of Multicomponent Doped Organic Room Temperature Phosphorescence Materials

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The multi‐component doping strategy, involving self‐assembly, host‐guest systems, and crystal engineering, has gained attention for its simplicity, cost‐effectiveness, structural diversity, and adjustable room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP). This review summarizes and evaluates the progress in creating RTP materials using this strategy, highlighting

Peptide‐Induced Ferroelectricity in Charge‐Transfer Supramolecular Materials

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 11, 20 February 2026.
Bio‐inspired supramolecular charge‐transfer amphiphiles self‐assemble into nanoribbons in water, where peptide chirality‐induced symmetry breaking generates robust ferroelectricity across multiple systems. These water‐processable organic ferroelectrics also enhance neuronal outgrowth and electrophysiological maturity, offering a versatile strategy for ...

P227 Effect of a new training device on pMDI technique [PDF]

Thorax, 2013
Introduction A simple training device (In-Check Flo-Tone®) has been developed to teach pMDI users when and how to actuate their inhaler via the sounding of an inspiratory flow whistle. Samples of the device plus instructions were made available to UK healthcare professionals who were invited, from April 2013, to take part in a short questionnaire ...
