Two Decades of Groundwater Variability in Peru Using Satellite Gravimetry Data

Applied Sciences
Groundwater is a critical yet understudied resource in Peru, where surface water has traditionally dominated national assessments. This study provides the first country-scale analysis of groundwater storage (GWS) variability in Peru from 2003 to 2023 ...

Engineering Nanoclay Edges to Construct Effective Polysulfide‐Trapping Interface for Markedly Enhanced Electrochemical Energy Storage

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A capsule‐shaped silicate clay (H‐ATP‐N2) rich in protonated edge hydroxyl groups (‐OH2+) is synthesized through a two‐step process involving microwave‐assisted acid treatment and N2 plasma etching to fibrous natural attapulgite. The H‐ATP‐N2 host inhibits the shuttle effect owing to the dominant adsorption mechanism–Lewis acid–base interaction between

Dominant Lithium‐Ion Conduction and Desolvation Regulation Enabled by Lithiated Monodisperse Nanospheres Composite Separator for High‐Nickel Lithium Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
To match high‐nickel lithium batteries, a composite separator is designed using a sulfonation‐lithiation nanosphere coating modification strategy. The composite separator can enhance the selectivity of lithium‐ion transport, accelerate Li+‐desolvation, and capture Ni, Co, and Mn ions.

Molecularly Engineered Dual‐Crosslinked Polymer Dielectrics for 200 °C Capacitive Energy Storage

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work establishes a molecular engineering strategy that constructs a robust dual‐crosslinked network in polymer nanocomposites, achieving a record‐high energy density of 5.17 J cm−3 with >90% efficiency at 200 °C. The multiscale‐validated design simultaneously enhances dielectric polarization and introduces deep electron traps, resulting in ...

Novel Zwitterionic Polydopamine Nanofiller‐Reinforced Hybrid Membranes With Superior Antifouling Performance for Wastewater Treatment

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reports one‐pot synthesized novel zwitterionic polydopamine‐silica (ZSiPDA) nanofillers for fabricating PES hybrid ultrafiltration membranes with enhanced hydrophilicity, permeability, and antifouling performance. The optimized membrane achieved over 91% humic acid removal and showed strong potential for municipal wastewater treatment.

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

On the Planarity of Heterocyclic Bay‐Substituted Perylenediimides: Insight into the Fluorescent Photoinduced Electron Transfer Sensing Framework

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Near‐infrared fluorescent pH indicators based on perylenediimide were constructed in a modular receptor–spacer–fluorophore–spacer–receptor format with heterocyclic amino moieties at the bay positions. Counterintuitively, the dibrominated intermediate with two heavy atoms is more emissive than the heterocyclic compounds.

Activating Paper Applying Gelatin, Starch and Chitosan Coatings Loaded With O/W Emulsions Encapsulating Rutin, Carvacrol and α‐Tocopherol

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Emulsion type governed the microstructure and functionality of papers coated with biopolymers matrix loaded with hydrophobic bioactives encapsulated into O/W emulsions. Emulsified systems improved UV–Vis barrier and antioxidant activity, whereas gelatin coatings with conventional or Pickering emulsions provided the greatest mechanical reinforcement ...

Addressing Biases in Ice Jam Observations by Integrating Multi‐Source Data in a Forested Fluvial Landscape, Southern Quebec

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exhaustive long‐term and large‐scale ice jam records are scarce in most cold river environments. Many discrete events occur in small, sparsely populated river systems and are poorly represented in open‐source databases. These observation biases are transferred to predictive models of ice jams and the collective understanding of their formation
