Understanding catalysis in a multiphasic two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide.

abstract：:Multiple hypotheses propose an ostensibly disparate array of drivers of food chain length (FCL), with contradictory support from natural settings. Here we posit that the magnitude of vertical energy flux in food webs underlies several drivers of FCL. We show that rising energy flux fuels top-heavy biomass pyramids, pr...
