Change in South Asian Summer Monsoon During MIS7, an Interglacial Complex of the Middle Pleistocene With High Obliquity Forcing

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon is a major component of the global climate system, yet its response to varying boundary conditions remains debated. We present pollen data from IODP Site U1446 (Bay of Bengal), recording vegetation changes in India's Core Monsoon Zone (CMZ) between 260 and 190 ka, spanning Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 7.

Molecular Genetic Characterization of the Diet of Limestone and Rainforest Langurs

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Using DNA metabarcoding of 419 fecal samples collected over 1 year, we characterized and compared the diets of four Trachypithecus species from rainforest and limestone habitats in Vietnam. Langurs consumed a remarkably high diversity of plants (122–129 genera across 59–73 families), with clear interspecific differences in dietary composition and ...

Sustainable Flame Retardant System with Thermomechanically Modified Stinging Nettle Tailored for Polyamide 12

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 6, June 2026.
A sustainable flame retardant system for polyamide 12 is developed by combining melamine polyphosphate with thermomechanically modified stinging nettle. The plant‐derived component alters degradation pathways, enhances char formation, and reduces heat release.
