  • New Study Traces How Earth's Alpine Plant Diversity Evolved

    A newly published study in the scientific journal Science Advances unveils the deep-time processes responsible for the exceptional plant diversity characterizing the world's mountain regions. While the richness of alpine flora is well-documented, this research, spearheaded by scientists from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, offers a comprehensive analysis of how geological forces and climate change have shaped this biodiversity over millions of years.

  • Chinese Researchers Reveal How Urban Heat Sources Intensify Extreme Heat Events

    Chinese researchers have recently revealed how surface heat sources in urban clusters contribute to extreme heat events, according to the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources (NIEER) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The study unveiled the changing characteristics of surface heat sources and their relationship with compound high-temperature events, highlighting the importance of surface energy analysis in understanding urban climate change.

  • Chinese Scientists Make Breakthrough in Invasive Brain-computer Interface Trial

    China has made progress in invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) tehcnology, achieving complex real-world operations such as mind-controlled wheelchairs. BCI is categorized into three types: invasive, semi-invasive and non-invasive. The latest breakthrough in the invasive BCI was achieved by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology, in collaboration with Huashan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University and other institutions.
