Materials advances for distributed environmental sensor networks at scale Nature Reviews Materials, Published online: 19 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41578-025-00838-7Accurate, spatiotemporally resolved monitoring of environments and ecosystems serves as the starting point to both identify and remedy natural or anthropogenic environmental hazards. This Review covers materials science advances supporting a new paradigm in environmental sensing: distributed networks of sensing elements capable of system-level profiling with the possibility of harmless environmental resorption after a predetermined recording period. https://bit.ly/4n6O2TD
