Cation-π Interaction-Driven Polyurethane Material With Superior Seawater Resistance and Excellent Tribological Performance.

Factors such as high humidity and salinity in the marine environment can accelerate material corrosion and wear. Achieving multiscale synergistic optimization of excellent mechanical and tribological ...

Modelling the impact of dominant transport pathways on Antarctic Krill fishing activity in the Southern Ocean.

Antarctic krill (Euphasia superba) are a key component in the Southern Ocean ecosystem, especially in the Atlantic sector, where the majority of the population is concentrated. The Norwegian commercia...

Oxidative uptake of Ce by oceanic ferromanganese crusts and implications for paleoredox estimates using Ce isotopes.

The oxidative enrichment and isotopic fractionation of cerium (Ce) in contact with vernadite (δ-MnO2) serve as a proxy for past redox conditions in both terrestrial and marine environments. However, t...

Multi-criteria ranking of power supply options for long-endurance autonomous marine pollution monitoring platforms using entropy-weighted VIKOR and ELECTRE.

Autonomous marine pollution-monitoring platforms must operate for extended periods in remote, harsh sea environments with limited maintenance access, making power-source selection a critical design ch...

Distance-Limited Larval Replenishment in the Deep-Sea Mussel Gigantidas platifrons Challenges Connectivity-Based Conservation Planning.

Deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems, critical for global methane and sulphur cycling, require accurate connectivity data for effective conservation planning amid increasing anthropogenic threats. Becau...

US military expansion and deep-sea mining pose environmental risks to Guam.

eDNA reveals extraordinary fish diversity in the Urauchi River, Iriomote Island, Japan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Robust biodiversity monitoring is essential for the management of UNESCO World Natural Heritage Sites; yet, systematic assessments of ichthyofaunal communities remain limited. Here, we apply environme...

Nanotechnological applications of marine algae derived neurotoxins spanning harmful algal blooms and therapeutic innovations.

Marine algae-derived neurotoxins, commonly associated with harmful algal blooms (HABs), represent a paradox in marine and biomedical sciences. While traditionally studied for their ecological disrupti...

Major contribution of anaplerosis to inorganic carbon fixation in the dark ocean.

While CO2 fixation by photo- and chemolithoautotrophs is a central process of the global carbon cycle, many organisms also incorporate inorganic carbon into organic compounds through anaplerotic carbo...

Embodied Science: Closing the Discovery Loop with Agentic Embodied AI

Artificial intelligence has demonstrated remarkable capability in predicting scientific properties, yet scientific discovery remains an inherently physical, long-horizon pursuit governed by experiment...

Eye Gaze-Informed and Context-Aware Pedestrian Trajectory Prediction in Shared Spaces with Automated Shuttles: A Virtual Reality Study

The integration of Automated Shuttles into shared urban spaces presents unique challenges due to the absence of traffic rules and the complex pedestrian interactions. Accurately anticipating pedestria...

Security awareness in LLM agents: the NDAI zone case

NDAI zones let inventor and investor agents negotiate inside a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) where any disclosed information is deleted if no deal is reached. This makes full IP disclosure the r...

Exploration Hacking: Can LLMs Learn to Resist RL Training?

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become essential to the post-training of large language models (LLMs) for reasoning, agentic capabilities and alignment. Successful RL relies on sufficient exploration ...

Chemical characterization of weathered polyethylene microplastics in marine coastal waters using OPLS-DA technique and ATR FT-IR spectra.

Predicting the fate of microplastics (MPs) in the environment and assessing their potential environmental hazard is crucial in defining effective mitigation strategies. This paper presents a novel app...

Ecotoxicological profile of a high prevalence marine disease area in Florida's Gulf coast.

Pervasive marine pollution can have devastating effects on ocean health. Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB), Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), and Organochlorine Pesticides (OCP) are particularly r...

Biosphere expansion drives Earth's secular oxygenation while tectonics modulate oxygen variability revealed by machine learning.

The rise of atmospheric oxygen fundamentally transformed Earth's surface environment and enabled the evolution of complex life. However, the processes driving long-term oxygen fluctuations remain poor...

Fishing trawlers drive the fine-scale daytime distribution of bottlenose dolphins at the Tiber River estuary (Western Mediterranean Sea).

Fisheries can strongly alter marine ecosystem dynamics, influencing the ecology and behaviour of top predators such as cetaceans. At the Tiber River estuary (Tyrrhenian Sea, Western Mediterranean), bo...

Host matters: coral reef fish species show distinct skin microbiome responses to upwelling-driven environmental changes.

Microbes from ambient-pressure analogues offer insights into possible life in Europa's high-pressure subsurface ocean.

Under its thick ice layer, Europa contains a shielded liquid water ocean where habitable conditions may exist. To effectively assess the habitability of this environment and the implications on putati...

Environmental DNA metabarcoding complements bottom trawling and detects fish species beyond recorded ranges in the Chukchi Borderland, Central Arctic Ocean.

Global climate change is profoundly altering Arctic marine biodiversity, yet baseline data on fish assemblages in the central Arctic Ocean remain critically scarce. The Chukchi Borderland-a Pacific-At...
