A mosaic of microclimates: biodiversity outcomes and wildlife habitat potential in large‐scale solar facilities

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2158-2171, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid global expansion of photovoltaic (PV) solar facilities, now comprising nearly 80% of the recent and projected growth of renewable electricity, represents one of the most significant land‐use changes of the 21st century. While PV facilities are critical for decarbonising energy systems, their large spatial footprint and infrastructure

Enrichment and Genomic Characterization of a N2O-Reducing Chemolithoautotroph From a Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas and also leads to stratospheric ozone depletion. In natural environments, only a single N2O sink process is the microbial reduction of N2O to N2, which is mediated by nitrous oxide reductase (NosZ) encoded by nosZ ...

Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 3565-3583, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

Structural and Functional Characterisation of a Metagenome‐Derived CYP108D18 Reveals an Unusual Dioxygen‐Bound State and Selective Hydrocarbon Hydroxylation

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.
CYP108D18, identified from a hot spring metagenome, catalyses selective phenylcyclohexane hydroxylation. This P450 has an exceptionally low substrate‐bound heme redox potential. Crystal structures revealed an unusual dioxygen‐bound substrate‐free form and a persistent open active site upon substrate binding.

Spatial and temporal groundwater biogeochemical variability help inform subsurface connectivity within a high-altitude Alpine catchment (Riale di Ronco, Switzerland)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Accessing the deep terrestrial subsurface (greater than 1 km below the surface) presents significant practical challenges, leaving these ecosystems largely uncharacterized despite their extensive presence beneath Earth's landmasses.

Complementary but Not Interchangeable: A Comparison of eDNA and Bulk Sample Metabarcoding for the Assessment of Groundwater Invertebrate Communities

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Bulk‐ and eDNA‐metabarcoding were compared across 50 groundwater sites (monitoring wells, springs, hydrants) to assess invertebrate communities. Both recovered different community structures with limited overlap (13.8% OTUs); eDNA was dominated by non‐stygobionts, and bulk samples by stygobionts.

High biodiversity in a benzene-degrading nitrate-reducing culture is sustained by a few primary consumers

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Chrats Melkonian and colleagues use metagenomics and transcriptomics to study microbial dynamics in a 15-year old bioreactor. In contrast to what is expected in a system where benzene is the primary carbon and energy source, relatively few members of the

A Review of Artificial Intelligence in Ophthalmology: Key Aspects, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesEye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 125-154, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly reshaping ophthalmology because the specialty depends heavily on structured imaging, quantitative measurements, and repeatable diagnostic workflows. This review provides a clinically grounded and translationally oriented synthesis of AI in ophthalmology, covering methodological foundations ...

Temperature-driven shifts in microbial reactions and community structure in bentonite under Fe(III)- and sulfate-reducing conditions: implications for deep geological repository performance

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
Bentonite is a promising buffer material for the engineered barrier system in deep geological repositories (DGRs) of spent nuclear fuel. Beyond its physical barrier function, bentonite harbors microbial communities that can mediate biogeochemical ...
