Ionic Gating of Liquid‐Crystal‐Like Pteridine Assemblies Enables Tunable Light Scattering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tunable optical properties emerge through developmentally regulated ionic gating, which transforms disordered, ultraviolet (UV)‐absorbing organelles into concentrically ordered, liquid‐crystal‐like light scatterers. By integrating analyses of pteridine composition, potassium‐dependent assembly, hierarchical ultrastructure, and optical behavior, the ...

Habitat selection and indirect interactions in fish ommunities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To increase the understanding of freshwater lake ecosystems, I have studied the habitat selection of perch (Perca fluviatilis L.), roach (Rutilus rutilus (L.)), and vendace (Coregonus albula (L.)).

A Single‐Solvent Acetone Strategy for Surface Enhancement and Robust Bonding in PMMA Microfluidic Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A single‐solvent acetone strategy simultaneously restores laser‐ablated PMMA surfaces and enables high‐strength bonding for microfluidic device fabrication. The process produces smooth, optically clear channels, achieves bonding strengths up to 27.3 MPa, and forms leak‐free devices within 25 min, providing a rapid and accessible route to robust PMMA ...

Growth Patterns of Small Pelagic Fish in West Africa [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability
Small pelagic fishes play important ecological roles in marine ecosystems, constitute some of the most economically valuable fisheries resources, and play a vital role in West African food security. Often living in upwelling regions, these species appear to have developed mechanisms to cope with environmental variability, such as opportunistic ...

The humble sardine (small pelagics): fish as food or fodder [PDF]

open access: yesAgriculture & Food Security, 2016
The group of small pelagic fish is the largest species group landed globally. A significant proportion of this nutrient-rich food is processed and lost to livestock feed, fish feed, fish oil, pet food and omega-rich vitamins. The nutritional importance of small pelagics as an easily digestible protein source, rich in essential lipids with fatty acids ...

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

Feeding habits of the dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) in the eastern Caribbean

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1999
The dolphinfish, Coryphaena hippurus, is an oceanic epipelagic fish with economic importance to sport and commercial fisheries throughout its worldwide distribution in tropical and sub-tropical waters.

Schooling behaviour of small pelagic fish: phenotypic expression of independent stimuli [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2007
We compared echo sounder measurements of fish schools on Venezuelan and Senegalese coastal shelves. In both areas Sardinella aurita was the predominant aggregative species; the stocks are known to be genetically independent. Persistent school typology is described by analysing 7 acoustic surveys in Venezuela and comparing with pioneer observations in ...

Iron‐Mediated Release of Aged Dissolved Organic Carbon From Waterlogged Peatland Under Warming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study conducts a five‐year in situ warming experiment in high‐altitude peatlands to examine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release. The study shows that warming promotes the release of plant‐derived modern DOC in drained peatlands, but amplifies aquatic export of century‐old DOC from waterlogged peatlands via Fe‐mediated DOC mobilization—a ...
