Freshwater fish functional diversity shows diverse responses to human activities, but consistently declines in the tropics

Ecography, EarlyView.
Freshwater environments are intertwined with human activities and the consequence has been environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Fish provide key ecological and economic benefits, and fish abundance and diversity can be affected by human activities resulting in functional diversity (FD) changes that might scale up to ecosystem impacts ...

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Thermochromic Radiative Cooling Coatings with Robust Superhydrophobicity for Energy‐Efficient Buildings

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A scalable, color‐adaptive radiative cooling coating is developed to enable dynamic spectral regulation via a reversible thermochromic transition at ~45 °C and a high solar reflectance of 91.7%. The coating achieves 4.44 °C outdoor sub‐ambient cooling while providing robust superhydrophobicity and environmental durability through its micro/nano ...

Exploring the Spatial Dynamics of a Just Regional Energy Transition: What If We Ask Citizens?

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The installation of wind turbines and solar parks in valued rural landscapes has led to local concerns and perceived injustices to the extent that the societal acceptance of the energy transition is at stake. Although the literature on energy justice is blooming, research into citizens' understandings of justice with regards to regional energy

Covalent Immobilization of Laccase on Mesoporous Bismuth Silicate for High‐Performance Biodegradation of Contaminants

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Myceliophthora thermophila laccase covalently immobilized on bismuth silicate (BiSi‐ext) achieved synergistic adsorption–biodegradation of Tectilon Blue 4R‐01 and ibuprofen. The biocatalyst showed enhanced stability, reusability, and rapid pollutant removal via expanded active‐site accessibility, enabling efficient, eco‐friendly wastewater remediation.

Stigma, attitude, and knowledge of epilepsy in Italy: A survey on 1159 subjects

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Stigma remains a major determinant of impaired quality of life (QoL) in people with epilepsy (PwE). We aimed to investigate perceptions of epilepsy‐related stigma in the Italian general population, assess knowledge of epilepsy and seizure first aid, and identify factors associated with stigmatizing attitudes.

Validation of DSM‐5 Severity Specifiers for Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder and an Alternative Specifier for Binge Eating Disorder in a Korean Cohort

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We examined the clinical validity of DSM‐5 severity specifiers for bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) in Korean outpatients. Method Seven hundred ninety‐nine outpatients with BN (n = 668; mean age = 23.7 years; 95% female; mean BMI = 20.54 kg/m2) or BED (n = 131; mean age = 26.1 years; 89% female; mean BMI = 25.07 ...
