Parallel Electrical Integration of Photo Bio Electrochemical Systems (photo‐BESs): Performance Gains and Load Dependency

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 13, 8 July 2026.
Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Luminescence and Photochromism in Lanthanide‐Doped Hackmanites

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Lanthanide‐doped lithium hackmanite derivatives are prepared utilizing a doped LiAlSiO4 precursor to modify luminescent and photochromic properties. Upon UV excitation, europium doping results in green Eu2+ persistent luminescence from shallow traps. Contrarily, samarium doping induces unusual near‐infrared photochromism.

Predicting Daylight Illuminances on Vertical Surfaces Using Luminous Efficacy of SolarIr radiance

Journal of the Korean Solar Energy Society, 2014
Exterior vertical illuminance is an important factor for lighting control. But, there are not many researches about the exterior illuminance on a vertical surface. In this study, we predicted the exterior illuminance on a vertical surface using vertical luminous efficacy.

Pollination by long‐proboscid horseflies and its implications for reproductive isolation among coflowering Satyrium orchids in South Africa

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Premise Floral adaptations to pollinators can drive lineage diversification and promote coexistence of species. We investigated the reproductive biology of Satyrium longicolle, a South African orchid that we hypothesized to belong to a long‐proboscid horsefly pollination guild and examined overlap of pollinators and floral traits among ...

Spectral‐Resolved Light at Night: TEMPO Observations and Background Correction

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) poses risks to public health and ecosystems. While long‐term remote sensing has tracked global nighttime light, spectrally resolved light at night (spectral light at night (SLAN)) data from geostationary orbit only became available with NASA's Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) mission. Its

The Effect of ‘Hydraulic‐Visual’ Interaction on the Intensity of Fish Schooling in the Upstream Movement of Juvenile Silver Carp

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study used juvenile silver carp as model organisms to investigate the combined effects of flow velocity, turbulence kinetic energy and visual cues from obstacles on fish schooling intensity. The experiments demonstrated that schooling intensity is a dynamic behavioural adjustment shaped by the integration of hydraulic constraints, energetic ...
