Amorphous VO₂ : a pseudocapacitive platform for high-rate symmetric batteries by Chao, Dongliang, DeBlock, Ryan, Lai, Chun-Han, Wei, Qiulong, Dunn, Bruce, Fan, Hong Jin

“…Such a symmetric battery offers safer operation in terms of overcharging, overdischarging, polarity reversal, high charge/discharge current abuse, and long-term usage. The results suggest that amorphous transition metal oxides may offer advantageous attributes for rapid, safe, and energy-dense storage.…”

Nature-based solutions for flood risk reduction : a probabilistic modeling framework by Lallemant, David, Hamel, Perrine, Balbi, Mariano, Lim, Tian Ning, Schmitt, Rafael, Win, Shelly

“…Results for the Chindwin River basin in Myanmar highlight the potential consequences of deforestation on long-term flood risk. We find that loss reduction is driven by small but frequent storms, suggesting that current practice relying on large storms may underestimate the benefits of nature-based solutions. …”

Sector entry flow prediction based on graph convolutional networks by Ma, Chunyao, Alam, Sameer, Cai, Qing, Delahaye, Daniel

“…Results show that, the proposed method outperforms the well established Long short-term memory (LSTM) model, and demonstrates better capability in predicting rapid changes in traffic flow and has relatively smaller decrease in prediction accuracy as the prediction time-window increases.…”

Reliable environmental trace heavy metal analysis with potentiometric ion sensor - reality or a distant dreams by Lisak, Grzegorz

“…In short, it is now clear that solely lowering the detection limit of the ion-selective electrodes does not guarantee development of successful sensors that would meet the requirement of environmental matrices over long term usage. More pressing challenges of the properties and the performance of the potentiometric sensors must be addressed first before considering extending their sensitivity to low analyte concentrations. …”

Exploring the limitations of osmotically assisted reverse osmosis: membrane fouling and the limiting flux by Peters, Christian D., Li, Dan, Mo, Zijing, Hankins, Nicholas P., She, Qianhong

“…Flux behavior in short-term operation was correlated to both the evolution of fouling and the change of internal concentration polarization. In long-term operation, membrane fouling constrained the OARO water flux to a singular, common upper limit, in terms of limiting flux, which was demonstrated to be independent of operating pressures and membrane properties. …”

A cationic thorium-organic framework with triple single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation peculiarities for ultrasensitive anion recognition by Li, Zi-Jian, Lei, Min, Bao, Hongliang, Ju, Yu, Lu, Huangjie, Li, Yongxin, Zhang, Zhi-Hui, Guo, Xiaofeng, Qian, Yuan, He, Ming-Yang, Wang, Jian-Qiang, Liu, Wei, Lin, Jian

“…Moreover, the single-crystal-to-single-crystal transition in NaIO3 solution can efficiently and selectively turn the ligand-based emission off, leading to the lowest limit of detection (0.107 μg kg-1) of iodate, one of the primary species of long-lived fission product 129I in aqueous medium, among all luminescent sensors.…”
