Vertical distribution, growth pattern, and age of an alien freshwater mussel, Sinanodonta pacifica, across elevations gradient on a tropical island and their implication for ecosys... by Asep Sahidin, Gunawan Muhammad, Pringgo Kusuma Dwi Noor Yadi Putra, Irfan Zidni, Zahidah Hasan, Bayu Kreshna Adhitya Sumarto, Septiana Sri Astuti, Yusli Wardiatno, Akira Komaru

“…Mussels were collected over one-year period (2020–2021) from lowland (0–300 m above sea level), midland (300–750 m), and highland (> 750 m) regions to examine density, age structure, growth pattern, and mortality. In midland, the highest population density 5.63 ± 1.83 individuals/m² and the fastest growth rate (growth coefficient, k = 0.26) was shown attributed to moderate temperatures, low suspended solids, and nutrient availability. …”

Highly tough, crack‐resistant and self‐healable piezo‐ionic skin enabled by dynamic hard domains with mechanosensitive ionic channel by XueBin Wang, Tong Liu, FuYao Sun, Jingyi Zhang, BoWen Yao, JianHua Xu, JiaJun Fu

“…Here, we resolve this perennial mismatch through a molecularly engineered strategy of implanting carboxyl‐functionalized groups into the dynamic hard domain structure of synthesized poly(urethane‐urea). This design provides an ultra‐high fracture energy of 211.27 kJ m−2 that is over 123.54 times that of tough human skin, while maintaining skin‐like stretchability, elasticity, and autonomous self‐healing with a 96.40% healing efficiency. …”
