A New Spin on Photocatalysis: Vortex Fluidic‐Driven Photooxidations Enabled by Solution‐Processable Microporous Polymers

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Newly developed polymers with intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) were combined with benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (BTZ) to be used as visible light photocatalytic coatings on the Vortex Fluidic Device (VFD). The VFD's rapid rotation and continuous flow capabilities enhanced singlet oxygen and superoxide radical reactions, achieving a dramatic eightfold ...

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests

Ecography, EarlyView.
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

The Typhoon Kezia and Atmospherics

Journal of geomagnetism and geoelectricity, 1951
Summary-The author proposes the consideration that the main origins of atmos­ perhics are the symbol indicating the degree of disturbances in the conditional insta­ bility region, of which he confirmed the frontal type and the air mass type. This is not only justified on physics of the formation of atmospherics, discussing from the view point of ...

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

A Resilience‐Based Reward‐Penalty Scheme for Hardening Electricity Distribution Assets Against High‐Impact, Low‐Probability Disasters

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel resilience‐based reward‐penalty scheme (RPS) for electricity grids facing high‐impact, low‐probability (HILP) disasters. By modeling the costs of proactive asset immunization against reactive RPS penalties, our analysis conclusively demonstrates that long‐term investment in grid resilience is the more economically rational
