Beyond Brown: Lignin's Emerging Role in Structural Color

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin, long regarded as a brown industrial byproduct, is emerging as a sustainable platform for structural color. This Perspective highlights how lignin's refractive index, intrinsic absorption, and nanoscale assembly enable tunable photonic responses in colloidal and thin‐film architectures, and outlines design strategies to advance scalable, bio ...

Litter accumulation alters the abiotic environment and drives community successional changes in two fenced grasslands in Inner Mongolia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Fencing is an effective and practical method for restoring degraded grasslands in northern China. However, little is known about the role of excess litter accumulation due to long‐term fencing in regulating abiotic environment and driving changes in ...

Привлечение иностранного капитала в Украину путем выпуска еврооблигаций [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In mountain ecosystems, species can be said to respond synchronously to environmental change when the elevation ranges of vegetation types and their associated vertebrates expand or contract in the same direction. Conversely, the response is asynchronous

Dual‐Functional Ingestible Passive Capsules for High‐Throughput Intestinal Sampling with Sealed Containment and Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To address challenges in high‐throughput intestinal sampling with sealed containment and target drug delivery, we developed a dual‐functional ingestible passive capsule with a dual‐triggered control system based on pH‐response and mechanical actuation.

Current national nature reserves are insufficient to safeguard the long-term survival of birds and mammals in China

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Enhancing the connectivity of protected areas is a global consensus for conserving biodiversity. Yet, it is unclear whether habitats are sufficiently connected within protected areas to efficiently protect wildlife populations for long-term survival ...

Vegetation changes produce benefits

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1976
The Hopland range area has more than 500 plant species, some of which were introduced from other parts of the world, and an understanding of the ecology of these plants is important for intelligent management of the vegetation.
