Inspired by octopuses, actuating legs based on soft materials are fabricated with programmed chiroptical properties and mechanical behaviors to achieve dynamic color modulation and reversible shape morphing, and these legs are developed into a modular OCTOID system.

Demystifying Piecewise and Localized Scatter Correction Methods
ABSTRACT Multiplicative scatter is a common source of noise in near‐infrared spectroscopy and other related instrumental techniques. A wide variety of methods are commonly used for the correction of multiplicative scatter. However, the majority of such methods assume that the parameters that describe the scatter are constant throughout the measured ...

Trait‐based approaches to restoration ecology: Synthesizing insights from diverse systems
Abstract Under accelerating global change, trait‐based approaches are emerging as essential tools in the ecological restoration toolbox. Where restoration has traditionally focused on the recovery of focal species in isolated systems, trait‐based methods can provide a common language that extends beyond species‐ or system‐specific contexts, allowing ...

This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Seagrass habitats are widely recognised as key nursery areas for juvenile fish, yet their specific role in supporting growth and condition remains incompletely understood. This study investigates the diet, growth and condition of juvenile (0+) snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) across multiple habitats in the Hauraki Gulf and northeastern New Zealand, with ...

Finding the Best Nursery: How Habitat Features Shape Juvenile Snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) Density
This study examines habitat preferences of juvenile Australasian snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) in northeastern New Zealand, analysing data from 113 stations across structured and unstructured habitats. We investigated how juvenile snapper densities were influenced by environmental factors, including prey availability and physical habitat features ...

Translocating Intact Assemblages to Degraded Sites to Accelerate Ecological Recovery
Estuarine ecosystems are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as climate change, coastal development, and increased nutrient and sediment inputs. These pressures are deteriorating ecological health and threatening the functioning and services that estuarine ecosystems provide.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Abstract Bathymetry is a critical input to storm surge models on coastlines fronted by lagoon systems, yet few studies explore how variations in bathymetry influence flood impacts, flooded extent, and exposed population across these globally widespread morphologies.
