Catalytic Activity of Cobalt Ferrites in Water Oxidation Reactions and Its Defect Dependency

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
Cobalt ferrite spinels calcined at 400–600 °C show temperature‐dependent changes in crystallinity, particle size, and defect concentration. A combination of PXRD, BET, SEM, Mössbauer spectroscopy, magnetometry, and PALS reveals how defect landscapes govern opposing trends in chemical versus electrochemical water oxidation.

The contribution of a surge event to infilling in a barrier‐enclosed estuary: Insights from field observations

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.
A storm surge in a sheltered, barrier‐enclosed estuary amplified water levels and flood dominance, increasing suspended sediments and altering transport pathways. Observations showed a sixfold rise in flux to the upper estuary, underscoring storms' major role in estuarine infilling processes.

Molecularly Engineered Fluorescent Magnetic Microrobots for Sensing High‐Energy Nitroaromatic Explosives in Highly Acidic Aqueous Environments

Small, Volume 22, Issue 5, 22 January 2026.
Magnetically powered fluorescent microrobots embedded with ketenimine‐based probes enable remote sensing of high‐energy explosive compounds in harsh acidic environments. Upon interaction with picric acid, the fluorescence of the microrobots is quenched, providing a precise “on–off” detection mechanism for selective monitoring in confined and hazardous ...
