Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT The Hawaiian monk seal is a phocid Carnivore endemic to the Hawaiian Archipelago. This species was thought to be silent under water until the recent discovery that mature males produce at least six distinct calls year round, typically in bouts of two or more, with sound production linked to reproductive status.

Open Ocean Biogeochemical Impacts of Extreme Terrestrial Precipitation
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract Extreme events reshape ocean ecosystems with significant implications for nutrient and carbon cycling. Here, we demonstrate that flooding on land can be a significant driver of biogeochemical variability in the open ocean, even in relatively dry climates.

Chemically Programmable Underwater Sound‐Absorbing Metamaterial via MXene Self‐Assembly
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.MXene self‐assembly creates a chemically programmable underwater metamaterial with quasi‐periodic layers and a chemical‐physical multi‐level constraint system. A crosslinker as a ‘chemical scissor’ precisely edits microscopic interactions, exciting deep‐subwavelength strong local resonances that induce near‐zero/negative effective bulk modulus (Keff ...

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.
