Unravelling the multi-scale structure of vertebrate scavenger communities: The role of beta-diversity in livestock carcass consumption by María Eugenia Cabrera-García, Patricia Mateo-Tomás, José Hernán Sarasola, Juan I. Zanón Martínez, Beatriz Martínez-Miranzo, Pedro P. Olea

“…Scavenger abundance increased during spring and was positively influenced by carcass weight; furthermore, carcasses in croplands supported less abundance that those located in natural habitats. Aligning with the theory of carrion unpredictability in maintaining biodiversity, our results suggest that scavenger species replacement (turnover) at human-mediated carcasses scattered in the field plays a significant role in shaping vertebrate scavenger assemblages.…”

CeO2−δ as Electron Donor in Co0.07Ce0.93O2−δ Solid Solution Boosts Alkaline Water Splitting by Gege Su, Yichao Hou, Jie Yin, Jiayi Yang, Zhenglong Li, Xin Du, Xin Zhang, Pinxian Xi, Chun‐Hua Yan

“…The in situ Raman spectra show a stable F2g peak at ≈452 cm−1 of Co0.07Ce0.93O2−δ, while the F2g peak in CeO2−δ almost disappeared during HER progress, demonstrating the charge distribution of *H adsorbed on Co0.07Ce0.93O2−δ is more stable than *H adsorbed on CeO2−δ. Density functional theory calculations reveal that Co0.07Ce0.93O2−δ solid solution increases protonation capacity and favors for formation of *H in alkaline media. …”
