  • Imagine a future where your clothes power your devices and recognize you with a simple tap. Researchers at Dongguk University have developed a gel polymer-based triboelectric nanogenerator that generates electrical signals from body movement to power electronics like LEDs and functions as a self-powered touch panel for user identification.

The article from EurekAlert! discusses a study published in the journal *Nature Communications* which explores the impact of climate change on the global distribution of marine species. Researchers from the University of Bristol and other institutions used a new modeling approach to predict how marine species might shift their ranges in response to changing ocean temperatures. The study suggests that while some species will expand their habitats towards the poles, others might face significant habitat loss, particularly in tropical regions. This could lead to a reshuffling of marine biodiversity, with potential implications for fisheries, conservation efforts, and ecosystem services. The findings underscore the urgency of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate these drastic ecological changes.
