Facilitating Sodium‐Ion Diffusion in Fe‐Doped Co3O4 for High‐Rate Performance

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The limited rate performance of cobalt oxide (Co3O4) materials restricts their applicability in the rapid charge–discharge process of sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). Iron (Fe) lattice doping can facilitate sodium‐ion diffusion by narrowing the bandgap and modulating the Co─O bond length.

Multifunctional Superwetting Sea‐Urchin‐Mimetic Nanosheet‐Based Interface for Remote Oil‐Water Separation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐free, FBC–rGO coating‐based robust superhydrophobic/superoleophilic sorbent (WCA >154°), enabling rapid, selective oil uptake and efficient oil/water separation. Integrated into a dolphin‐inspired Wi‐Fi mini‐bot with onboard pumping and storage, the platform enables remote, contactless, on‐site oil recovery from hazardous spill zones ...

Feeding Behavior, Gut Microbiota, and Transcriptome Analysis Reveal Individual Growth Differences in the Sea Urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius

open access: yesBiology
Growth differentiation among farmed sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus intermedius) poses a significant challenge to aquaculture, with there being a limited understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms. In this study, sea urchins with varying growth

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Organic Sunscreens Used Worldwide, Alone and in Mixture, on Terrestrial Plants

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

Estimating the abundance of clustered and cryptic marine macro-invertebrates in the Galápagos with particular reference to sea cucumbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Estimating the abundance of marine macro-invertebrates is complicated by a variety of factors: 1) human factors, such as diver efficiency and diver error; and 2) biological factors, such as aggregation of organisms, crypsis, and nocturnal emergence ...

Warm waters undermine cryptic female choice

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding the thermal sensitivity of reproductive interactions is crucial given global warming. Previous studies have almost exclusively focused on interactions before mating, even though important interactions between the sexes also occur after mating (e.g.
