Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Interfacial Ru–O–W Orbital Coupling Enables Lattice Oxygen Stabilization for Enhanced Acidic OER
Carbon Energy, EarlyView.A RuO2/WO3 electrocatalyst with strong interfacial Ru–O–W bonds exhibits optimized Ru–O interactions, enhancing intrinsic activity and stability for acidic OER. The WO3 support modulates the electronic structure of RuO2 and promotes oxo‐intermediate deprotonation, delivering a low overpotential of 203 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and sustained operation beyond 200

Ultra‐High‐Efficiency On‐Chip CO2 Conversion by Nanosecond Self‐Pulsing Micro‐Plasma Devices
Carbon Energy, EarlyView.A micro‐plasma chip with sub‐10‐μm electrode gaps is introduced for efficient CO2‐to‐CO conversion. The device self‐converts a DC power supply into nanosecond pulses, producing field‐emission electrons that vibrationally excite CO2, driving dissociation via the ladder‐climbing mechanism. A scaled‐up chip array achieves 30% single‐pass conversion and 50%
