Convenient Confinement: Interplay of Solution Conditions and Graphene Oxide Film Structure on Rare Earth Separations

Graphene oxide (GO) membranes are excellent candidates for a range of separation applications, including rare earth segregation and radionuclide decontamination. Understanding nanoscale water and ion behavior near interfacial GO is critical for groundbreaking membrane advances, including improved selectivity and permeability. Here, we experimentally examine the impact of solution conditions on water and lanthanide interactions with interfacial GO films and connect these results to GO membrane performance. The investigation of the confined films at the air–water interface with a combination of surface-specific spectroscopy and X-ray scattering techniques allows us to understand water and ion behaviors separately. Sum frequency generation spectroscopy reveals a dramatic change in interfacial water organization because of graphene oxide film deprotonation. Interfacial X-ray fluorescence measurements show a 17× increase in adsorbed lanthanide to the GO film from subphase pH 3 to pH 9. Liquid surface X-ray reflectivity data show an additional 2.7 $e^–$ per Å 2 for GO films at pH 9 versus pH 3 as well. These results are connected to GO membrane performance, which show increased selectivity and decreased flux for membranes filtering pH 9 solutions. We posit insoluble lanthanide hydroxides form at higher pHs. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of interfacial experiments on model GO systems.

Specific Ion Effects in Lanthanide–Amphiphile Structures at the Air–Water Interface and Their Implications for Selective Separation

The use of surfactants to attract dissolved ions to water surfaces and interfaces is an essential step in both solvent-based and solvent-free separation processes. Here, we have studied the interactions of lanthanide ions in the aqueous subphase with monolayers of dihexadecyl phosphate at air–water interfaces. With heavier lanthanides (atomic number Z ≥ 65) in the subphase, the floating layer can be compressed to an area/molecule of about half the molecular cross section, indicating bilayer formation. X-ray fluorescence and reflectivity data support this conclusion. In the presence of lighter lanthanides (Z < 65), only monolayers are observed. Subphase-concentration-dependent studies using Er 3+ (heavier) and Nd 3+ (lighter) lanthanides show a stepwise progression, with ions attaching to the monolayer only when the solution concentration is >3 × 10 –7 M. Above ~10 –5 M, bilayers form but only in the presence of the heavier lanthanide. Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction shows evidence of lateral ion–ion correlations in the bilayer structure but not in monolayers. Explicit solvent all-atom molecular dynamics simulations confirm the elevated ion–ion correlation in the bilayer system. This bilayer structure isolates heavier lanthanides but not lighter lanthanides from an aqueous solution and is therefore a potential mechanism for the selective separation of heavier lanthanides.

The Global Spectra-Trait Initiative: A database of paired leaf spectroscopy and functional traits associated with leaf photosynthetic capacity (v1.0.0)

The Global Spectra-Trait Initiative (GSTI) aims to generate generalizable spectra trait models using reflectance data to predict leaf traits associated with the photosynthesis capacity of leaves. It comprises a synthesized dataset of leaf trait data, input datasets and code. Leaf traits include the maximum carboxylation rate of rubisco (Vcmax), the maximum electron transport rate (Jmax), the dark respiration, as well as the prediction of leaf nitrogen, leaf mass per area (LMA), and leaf water content (LWC). The dataset comprises >7500 paired observations from around 400 species from a broad range of biomes. This dataset comprises a zip file of the GSTI GitHub repository (https://github.com/plantphys/gsti), the synthesized database (.csv) and database metadata files. This dataset was updated on 2025-12-12 with minor edits to mirror the accepted manuscript version and GitHub release (Version 1.0.0 (ESSD accepted version)). Edits included minor changes to the project documentation on GitHub and removal of 12 duplicate entries from the database.

Colliding localized, lumpy holographic shocks with a granular nuclear structure

We apply a recent and simple technique which speeds up the calculation of localized collisions in holography to study more realistic models of the pre-hydrodynamic phase of heavy ion collisions using gauge/gravity duality. Our initial data reflects the lumpy nuclear structure of real heavy ions and our projectiles’ aspect ratio mimics the Lorentz contraction of nuclei during RHIC collisions. At the hydrodynamization time of the central region of the quark gluon plasma developed during the collision, we find that most of the system’s vorticity is located well outside the hydrodynamized part of the plasma. Only the relativistic corrections to the thermal vorticity within the hydrodynamized region are non-negligible. We compare the transverse flow shortly after the collision with previous results which did not use granular initial conditions and determine the proper energy density and fluid velocity in the hydrodynamized subregion of the plasma.

My warranty has expired: I need to be retested

The concept of warranty period, the duration of time during which the patient’s risk remains low, is appealing. However, some points remain to be resolved before its translation in the clinical arena. Methodological issues should be standardized in order to compare the results of studies in different patient populations. Also, the definition of a “normal” study should always take into consideration the history of prior revascularization, the achieved level of exercise, and the stressor used. The promise of warranty can be questioned by the patient’s baseline demographic and clinical characteristics and may also be influenced by life-style modification in the course of the follow-up. The “warranty period” concept should shift from data reflecting the time to a cardiac event to the development of ischemia, given an opportunity for intervention before a cardiac event occurs. In this context, clarify the role of serial imaging can be extremely useful, in particular to evaluate if and when retesting a patient after a normal scan.

Regional Control of Hairless versus Hair-Bearing Skin by Dkk2

Haired skin is a defining characteristic of mammals. Yet, some specialized skin regions, such as human palms, soles and ventral wrist, and mouse plantar foot, are entirely hairless. Using mouse plantar skin as a model system, we show that the endogenous secreted Wnt inhibitor DKK2 suppresses plantar hair follicle development and permits the formation of hairless skin. Plantar skin retains all of the mechanistic components needed for hair follicle development, as genetic deletion of Dkk2 permits formation of fully functional plantar hair follicles that give rise to external hair, contain sebaceous glands and a stem cell compartment, and undergo regenerative growth. In the absence of Dkk2 , Wnt/β-catenin signaling activity is initially broadly elevated in embryonic plantar skin and gradually becomes patterned, mimicking follicular development in normally haired areas. These data reflects a paradigm in which regionally restricted expression of a Wnt inhibitor underlies specification of hairless versus hairy skin.

Building commissioning costs and savings across three decades and 1500 North American buildings

B.V. Building commissioning (Cx) is a process for assuring efficient building operations that can be applied to new construction and existing buildings, resulting in energy and non-energy benefits. Quantifying the benefits of commissioning is challenging, but a 2009 study of 643 commercial buildings provided a solid initial data set to which we added 839 additional buildings for a significantly expanded and updated meta-analysis representing 34.7 million square meters (373 million square feet) of floor area. Since 2009 the commissioning industry has continued to grow, driven by building codes, utility programs, and rising awareness of commissioning benefits. In parallel, building controls have become more sophisticated, and analytics software has emerged to assist with commissioning. We find that delivery mechanism and market segment are key determinants of outcomes, although significant and cost-effective savings are found across the spectrum. Median primary energy savings for Cx projects in existing buildings ranged from 5 percent for those conducted under utility programs, 9 percent for monitoring-based commissioning utility programs (i.e., augmented with submetering and diagnostics), and 14 percent for Cx projects outside of utility programs. Across all project types, median savings ranged from 3 percent for the lodging market segment to 16 percent for public order and safety facilities. Outcomes did not vary significantly by building size or by market segment. Energy savings are rarely estimated for new construction commissioning. We found that the median costs of Cx were lower for the 2018 sample than for the 2009 sample—$\$$2.85 per square meter ($\$$0.26 per square foot) for existing buildings (a 33 percent reduction) and $\$$8.78 per square meter ($\$$0.82 per square foot) for new construction (a reduction of almost 50 percent). The median simple payback time for existing buildings was 1.7 years, with a 25th–75th percentile range of 0.8–3.5 years. Overall, this article summarizes these and other key findings, and discusses how the 2018 data reflects shifts in commissioning practice and outcomes.

High frequency (4th order) sequence stratigraphy of Early Miocene deltaic shorelines, offshore Texas and Louisiana

Well logs and 3D seismic reflection data are integrated to image Lower Miocene depocenters of the upper Texas and westernmost Louisiana coastal and offshore areas. Although previously interpreted at a large scale (3rd order cycles), the detailed stratigraphy and depositional history of the early Miocene succession has not been fully developed. The upper lower Miocene interval from Robulus L (MFS10) to Amphistegina B (MFS9) has been further subdivided into five 4th order cycles (each 200 to 300 m thick) to provide finer scale stratigraphic detail and interpretation of depositional environments. Results of the finer scale correlations are presented in a series of sandstone percent maps. Overall, the maps display a strike-elongate (sub-parallel to the present day coastline) orientation for the sandstone bodies which thin to the southeast (basinward). Net sandstone thickness is relatively low in older cycles and increases in younger cycles suggesting an overall progradation of the deltaic system into the mapped area through time. Continued marine regression and southward movement of the shoreline are also confirmed by seismic amplitude 2 maps. After a major transgression associated with Robulus L deltaic progradation occurred under rising sea level conditions. Deltaic sediments prograded southward and sandstone brought to the upper Texas coast was distributed laterally by longshore currents to form strandplain coast lines. Maximum regression occurred during the interval MFS9_2 to MFS9_3 when a deltaic depocenter formed offshore Texas in east High Island area. However, sandstone thickness progressively decreased laterally to the east (offshore Louisiana) where more shale was present and marine processes reworked deltaic derived sandstones into shore parallel bars. There was a clear retreat of the shoreline during the youngest cycle marking the beginning of transgression associated with Amphistegina B . Detailed stratigraphic interpretation (at a 4th order scale) shows more variability in the dominant shoreline processes during early Miocene than previously thought. Recognition of sedimentary systems variability at a 4th order scale is critical for improved hydrocarbon exploration and in understanding potential future CO 2 storage in the area.

Ab Initio-Based Bond Order Potential for Arsenene Polymorphs Developed via Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning

Arsenene, a less-explored two-dimensional material, holds the potential for applications in wearable electronics, memory devices, and quantum systems. This study introduces a bond-order potential model with Tersoff formalism, the ML-Tersoff, which leverages multireward hierarchical reinforcement learning (RL), trained on an ab initio data set. This data set covers a spectrum of properties for arsenene polymorphs, enhancing our understanding of its mechanical and thermal behaviors without the complexities of traditional models requiring multiple parameter sets. Our RL strategy utilizes decision trees coupled with a hierarchical reward strategy to accelerate convergence in high-dimensional continuous search spaces. Unlike the Stillinger-Weber approach, which demands separate formalisms for buckled and puckered forms, the ML-Tersoff model concurrently captures multiple properties of the two polymorphs by effectively representing the local environment, thereby avoiding the need for different atomic types. Here, we apply the ML model to understand the mechanical and thermal properties of the arsenene polymorphs and nanostructures. We observe an inverse relationship between the critical strain and temperature in arsenene. Thermal conductivity calculations in nanosheets show good agreement with ab initio data, reflecting a decrease in thermal conductivity attributable to increased anharmonic effects at higher temperatures. We also apply the model to predict the thermal behavior of arsenene nanotubes.

Heavy Versus Light Lanthanide Selectivity for Graphene Oxide Films is Concentration Dependent

Rare earths are important materials in various technologies such as catalysis and optoelectronics. Graphene oxide (GO) is a promising material for separation applications, including the isolation of lanthanides from complex mixtures. Previous works using fatty acid monolayers have demonstrated preferential heavy versus light lanthanide adsorption, which has been attributed to differences in lanthanide ion size. In this work, we used interfacial X-ray fluorescence measurements to reveal that GO thin films at the air/water interface have no lanthanide selectivity for dilute subphases. However, at high subphase concentrations, ~8 times more Lu is adsorbed than La. By comparing the GO results with an ideal monolayer with a carboxylic acid headgroup, arachidic acid (AA), we demonstrate that the number of Lu ions adsorbed to GO is significantly higher than the number expected to compensate for the surface charge. Vibrational sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy results on both GO thin films and AA monolayers reveal a red-shifted SFG signal in the OH region, which we attribute to partial dehydration of the adsorbed ions and carboxylic acid headgroups. Liquid surface X-ray reflectivity data show that the GO thin film structure does not significantly change between the very dilute and concentrated subphases. We speculate that the functional groups of both GO and AA facilitate cation dehydration, which is essential for ion adsorption. Heavy lanthanide Lu has stronger ion–ion correlations that can overcome the electrostatic repulsion between cations at higher concentrations compared to light lanthanide La, meaning GO and AA can exhibit apparent overcharge with Lu. Lastly, the layered structure of the GO films and reactive chemical nature of GO itself can accommodate ion adsorption.

Counterions under a Surface-Adsorbed Cationic Surfactant Monolayer: Structure and Thermodynamics

The surface adsorption of ionic surfactants is fundamental for many widespread phenomena in life sciences and for a wide range of technological applications. However, direct atomic-resolution structural experimental studies of noncrystalline surface-adsorbed films are scarce. Thus, even the most central physical aspects of these films, such as their charge density, remain uncertain. Consequently, theoretical models based on contradicting assumptions as for the surface films' ionization are widely used for the description and prediction of surface thermodynamics. We employ X-ray reflectivity to obtain the angstrom Ångström-scale surface-normal structure of surface-adsorbed films of the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in aqueous solutions at several different temperatures and concentrations. In conjunction with published neutron reflectivity data, we determine the surface-normal charge distribution due to the dissociated surfactants' headgroups. The distribution appears to be inconsistent with the Gouy-Chapman model yet consistent with a compact Stern layer model of condensed counterions. Here, the experimental surfactant adsorption thermodynamics conforms well to classical, Langmuir and Kralchevsky, adsorption models. Furthermore, the Kralchevsky model correctly reproduces the observed condensation of counterions, allowing the values of the adsorption parameters to be resolved, based on the combination of the present data and the published surface tension measurements.

Adsorption of Mixed Micelles of Polysorbate 80 and Oleic Acid to the Air–Water Interface

The solubilization of long chain amphiphiles with limited solubility into mixed micelles composed of highly soluble surfactants plays a crucial role in modulating the stability and functionality of formulations in pharmaceutical and food systems. Subsequently, the mixed micelles adsorb from solution to the air−water surface, defining the transport mechanism of the insoluble amphiphiles to the interface. We use X-ray reflectivity to measure the composition and provide insight into the structure of these mixed monolayers, and, alongside interfacial tension measurements, we provide an understanding of how the bulk composition determines the surface composition and the dynamics of tension reduction. We use a model system consisting of an insoluble fatty acid, oleic acid (OA), and a soluble micelle-forming surfactant, polysorbate 80 (PS80). PS80 forms spherical micelles, and, above the critical micelle concentration (cmc), OA is readily solubilized inside the micelles. We show that the adsorption of PS80/OA mixed micelles to the air−water interface rapidly reduces the tension and lowers the equilibrium tension in proportion to the OA concentration. X-ray reflectivity data, fit using Parratt-slab models, quantitively demonstrates that the monolayers become enriched with OA, and we show how the OA intercalates into the PS80 monolayers.

Highly Contrasting Static Charging and Bias Stress Effects in Pentacene Transistors with Polystyrene Heterostructures Incorporating Oxidizable N , N '-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)aniline Side Chains as Gate Dielectrics

Charge storage and trapping properties of polymer dielectrics govern the charge densities of adjacent semiconductors and greatly influence the on-off switching voltage (threshold voltage, V th ) of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) when the polymers are used as gate insulators. Intentional charging of polymer dielectrics in OFETs can change V th and affect the bias stress. We describe a chemical design and fabrication protocol to construct multilayer-stack dielectrics for pentacene-based OFETs using different polystyrene (PS)-based polymers in each layer, with oxidizable N,N-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)anilino (TPAOMe)-substituted styrene copolymers in arbitrary vertical positions in the stacks. Thermal, byproduct-free crosslinking of benzocyclobutene subunits provides integrity to the multilayer structure by preventing dissolution of the previous deposited layer. Neutron reflectivity data verified the multilayer morphology. We compared the Vth shift before and after charging the stacks by application of ±100V across 0.5-1 µm total film thicknesses. Bias stress was the dominant effect in bilayer devices with a TPAOMe layer in contact with the pentacene, indicated by the direction of V th shift associated with either polarity of external electric field. In structures with no TPAOMe subunit in contact with the pentacene, when charging with -100V on top of the source and drain electrodes, electron injection from pentacene to dielectric was the major charging mechanism, again consistent with the bias stress direction. When charging with +100V, bilayer devices without TPAOMe showed little change in V th , suggesting there was no bias stress effect or charge injection in these devices for this charging polarity. For the bilayer devices with the TPAOMe layer in the bottom, and the trilayer devices with TPOMe in the middle, when +100V was applied, the V th shifts were opposite those expected from bias stress. Dipole formation or partial ionization of chargeable groups at the interface between the dielectric layers are likely polarization mechanisms in these cases. A simple analytical model supports the plausibility of these mechanisms. This work provides examples of both stabilization and shifting of V th , and therefore controlling charge carrier density, in semiconductors overlying the dielectric multilayers.

Online Bayesian State Estimation for Real-Time Monitoring of Growth Kinetics in Thin Film Synthesis

Rapid validation of newly predicted materials through autonomous synthesis requires real-time adaptive control methods that exploit physics knowledge, a capability that is lacking in most systems. Here, in this study, we demonstrate an approach to enable real-time control of thin film synthesis by combining in situ optical diagnostics with a Bayesian state estimation method. We developed a physical model for film growth and applied the direct filter (DF) method for real-time estimation of nucleation and growth rates during pulsed laser deposition (PLD). We validated the approach using simulated and experimental reflectivity data for WSe 2 growth and ultimately deployed the algorithm on an autonomous PLD system during the growth of 1T'-MoTe 2 . The DF robustly estimates growth parameters in real time at early stages of growth, down to 15% monolayer area coverage. This fusion of in situ diagnostics, data assimilation, and physical modeling opens new opportunities in adaptive control of synthesis trajectories toward desired material states.

Smooth Modified Surfaces of Silicon for the Study of Ionic Liquid Interfaces by Neutron Reflectometry

Silicon surfaces with termination of hydrogen (H–Si), quartz, native silicon (native-Si), and chemically deposited (Au–Si) cd and sputtered gold (Au–Si) s were fabricated with roughness less than 6 Å to study the solid–liquid interface of the ionic liquid (IL) methyltrioctylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [N 1888 ][TFSI], by neutron reflectometry (NR). The modifications made to the silicon surface were to obtain a native positive or negative charge similar to a charged surface in electrochemical systems. The differences in scattering length density (SLD) based on mass density and composition of IL were examined. Perpendicular to the substrate surface, a distinct transition between the first ion layer and the bulk liquid is resolved out of the reflectivity data for the gold surfaces and in particular the chemically deposited Au–Si. Other interfaces are best described by a diffuse transition between regions of different SLDs. The diffuse transitions between SLDs observed here suggest that the interfacial structure of IL, while ordered, is best described by a continuous variation in composition as opposed to distinct layers of ions.

Grass Evolutionary Lineages Can Be Identified Using Hyperspectral Leaf Reflectance

Hyperspectral remote sensing has the potential to map numerous attributes of the Earth’s surface, including spatial patterns of biological diversity. Grasslands are one of the largest biomes on Earth. Accurate mapping of grassland biodiversity relies on spectral discrimination of endmembers of species or plant functional types. We focused on spectral separation of grass lineages that dominate global grassy biomes: Andropogoneae (C 4 ), Chloridoideae (C 4 ), and Pooideae (C 3 ). We examined leaf reflectance spectra (350–2,500 nm) from 43 grass species representing these grass lineages from four representative grassland sites in the Great Plains region of North America. Here, we assessed the utility of leaf reflectance data for classification of grass species into three major lineages and by collection site. Classifications had very high accuracy (94%) that were robust to site differences in species and environment. We also show an information loss using multispectral sensors, that is, classification accuracy of grass lineages using spectral bands provided by current multispectral satellites is much lower (accuracy of 85.2% and 61.3% using Sentinel 2 and Landsat 8 bands, respectively). Our results suggest that hyperspectral data have an exciting potential for mapping grass functional types as informed by phylogeny. Leaf-level hyperspectral separability of grass lineages is consistent with the potential increase in biodiversity and functional information content from the next generation of satellite-based spectrometers.

Summertime Continental Shallow Cumulus Cloud Detection Using GOES‐16 Satellite and Ground‐Based Ceilometer at North Alabama

Abstract Accurate simulations of boundary layer cloud processes remain challenging in Earth system modeling. Observations are essential to evaluate and improve models of such processes. This study introduces a comprehensive validation framework for a satellite‐based detection algorithm of continental shallow cumulus (ShCu) clouds during the daytime, which was initially developed using ground‐based observations of stereo cameras at the Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains site (J. Tian et al., 2021, https://doi.org/10.3390/rs13122309 , 2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2021gl097070 ). To validate this algorithm, the framework employs ground‐based ceilometer measurements from North Alabama (NA) where ShCu populations are prevalent. This study first generates clear‐sky surface reflectance maps at NA and identifies ShCu pixels with a detection threshold using Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) reflectance data. The obtained cloud fractions (CFs) are then compared against CFs from a ground‐based ceilometer, considering factors such as observed area differences, satellite parallax issue, and systematic biases. We found that with a detection threshold (∆R) of 0.05, the ShCu detection algorithm is effective for NA, enabling the reproduction of hourly ShCu CFs using GOES. Our framework is straightforward and easily repeatable to evaluate the effectiveness of a ∆R threshold for detecting ShCu clouds in various geographic regions where ceilometers are deployed. This satellite detection of ShCu provides a crucial regional context for ground‐based measurements, facilitating the tracking of convection initiation and its coupling with land surface conditions. Integrating localized ground‐based and regional satellite data will enhance our ability to conduct thorough studies of cloud morphology and land‐atmosphere interactions in North Alabama.

National-scale remotely sensed lake trophic state from 1984 through 2020

Lake trophic state is a key ecosystem property that integrates a lake’s physical, chemical, and biological processes. Despite the importance of trophic state as a gauge of lake water quality, standardized and machine-readable observations are uncommon. Remote sensing presents an opportunity to detect and analyze lake trophic state with reproducible, robust methods across time and space. We used Landsat surface reflectance data to create the first compendium of annual lake trophic state for 55,662 lakes of at least 10 ha in area throughout the contiguous United States from 1984 through 2020. The dataset was constructed with FAIR data principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reproducible) in mind, where data are publicly available, relational keys from parent datasets are retained, and all data wrangling and modeling routines are scripted for future reuse. Together, this resource offers critical data to address basic and applied research questions about lake water quality at a suite of spatial and temporal scales.
