Being Single in the City: Cultural Geographies of Gendered Urban Space in Asia
Was bedeutet es, eine alleinstehende Frau in Indien oder China zu sein? Singles sind auf dem Vormarsch, auch in Asien. Es gibt eine ambivalente Faszination für die alleinstehende Frau als neuen Typus der selbstbewussten, kompetenten „Lifestyle-Surferin“ und engagierten Karrieremacherin.

Electrochromic Adaptive Solar Heater and Sub‐Ambient Passive Daytime Radiative Cooler
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An electrochromic Cu–Bi nanocluster device dynamically switches between solar heating and daytime sub‐ambient radiative cooling without mechanical motion. Defect‐activated graphene, minimized electrolyte loss, and pulse‐assisted reversible electrodeposition enable opposite solar and mid‐infrared modulation in one opaque platform, establishing a design ...

Material Before Morphology: Substrate‐Dependent Mechanical Tuning of Radular Teeth
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Substrate‐dependent material tuning in Clausilia radular teeth. Closely related taxa retain a conserved gross tooth morphology, but differ in elemental composition and mechanical properties according to feeding substrate. Rock‐associated taxa show increased Ca–Si enrichment and higher stiffness and hardness, especially in the central radular region ...

Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...
