Molecular-level insight into water adsorption and projected atmospheric water harvesting performance in a hydrolytically stable MOF

Sorption-based atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) promises a solution to the global challenge of water scarcity and, despite the increasing number of promising AWH materials, there remains a need for insight into pore-filling mechanisms and the hydrolytic stability of such desicc...

Nanoscale Insights:Exploring Undersaturated Crystallizationof Flufenamic Acid with Liquid Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy

Abstract Pharmaceutical crystallization traditionally requires supersaturation to occur and is typically monitored through macroscopic characterization methods that can measure induction times and growth rates. However, detailed insights revealing the precise steps and mechanisms...

Drone-measured canopy spectra can be a complementary predictor of belowground arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi variations in urban community gardens

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form essential symbioses with plant roots, improving nutrient uptake, plant health, and soil function. However, assessing AMF abundance in urban ecosystems remains challenging. Drone-based multispectral imaging can estimate canopy functional tra...

An audit of professional standards for sport science

Sport is a global industry with athletes supported by sport scientists who have gained the necessary education and experience. However, there is still great variety in the training and career development opportunities for novice and trainee sport scientists to develop their pract...
