Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
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 ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

A Green Consumer‐Based Approach to Advance Branding Strategies in Experiential Consumption Contexts. Insight From the Cruise Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growing environmental awareness has intensified demand for sustainability and transparency, especially in cruise tourism, a high‐impact and highly scrutinised service context. This study examines how green consumption values (GCV) shape passengers' perceptions of the credibility of green marketing claims (believability) and, in turn, influence

Lipase-Assisted Removal of Spin Finishes from Synthetic Fibre Textiles

Textiles
Lubricants based on fatty acid ester (FAE) mixtures are widely used in the textile industry, e.g., in spin finishes applied during the production of synthetic fibres, or in sizes added to fibres before weaving. FAE lubricants can significantly impact the

Riding on a Pegasus: Is ‘Sustainability’ Still a Myth in Bangladesh's RMG Sector?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although a growing number of studies explore sustainability, the role of stakeholders and institutions in shaping environmental sustainability initiatives remains overlooked particularly from the upstream fashion supply chain contexts. Drawing upon the framework proposed by Lee, our study aims to fill this gap by examining the interplay ...

Challenges of Bio‐Syngas Conversion to High‐Value‐Added Liquid Chemicals and Fuels via COx Hydrogenation

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Converting biomass‐derived syngas into value‐added fuels and chemicals offers a promising route toward carbon neutrality, yet unfavorable H2/COx ratios, elevated CO2 levels, and trace impurities pose persistent obstacles. This review examines strategies spanning syngas conditioning, impurity‐tolerant catalyst development, and integrated process design,

Experimental Investigation on the Effect of Dry and Wet Activation Processes on the Morphological Properties of Activated Carbon Derived From Sugarcane Bagasse

Carbon Innovation, EarlyView.
Synthesis and characterization of sugarcane bagasse‐derived activated carbon via KOH‐assisted dry and wet activation. ABSTRACT This study explores the impact of activation processes on the morphological properties of activated carbon. Carbon is initially produced through vacuum pyrolysis at three temperatures (500°C, 600°C, and 700°C), with a heating ...
