A Generic Approach to Creating a National Soil Security Strategy

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is a living and non‐renewable resource that underpins our very existence. It produces our food, filters our water, stores vast amounts of carbon, cycles essential nutrients, and sustains the rich tapestry of biodiversity on which our planet depends.

Intelligent Continuum Micromachines in Complex Confined Spaces

SmartBot, EarlyView.
The cover depicts a conceptual design for an intelligent continuum micromachine entering a target capsule used in fusion‐energy research through its slender gas‐fill tube. By combining route‐adaptive deformation, embedded sensing, and a functional end effector, the robot could inspect hidden defects, assess local conditions, and support localized ...

Covalent Organic Framework Electrolytes for Solid‐State Lithium Batteries: Designing Ion Highways for Next‐Generation Energy Storage

Small, EarlyView.
Covalent organic frameworks provide a structurally programmable platform for solid‐state lithium batteries. This review outlines a design framework linking structural descriptors to ion‐transport metrics. It examines mechanisms of confinement, channel architecture, and hybrid designs, addressing the reasons for the occasional failure of high intrinsic ...

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is
