Researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) examined the relationship between color indices (the strength of green and Hue) calculated from digital camera images in a rubber plantation in Xishuangbanna. They also measured the gross primary production obtained from daily flux tower observations of carbon dioxide at a daily time step over two years.
The China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) operated smoothly at a beam power of more than 50 kW on Jan. 29, marking another significant milestone for the facility. The important achievement came less than six months after the facility went into full operation. Based on this breakthrough, scientists are expecting to meet the facility's design goal of 100 kW much sooner than originally planned.
Researchers from Yangzhou University and the Institute of Process Engineering found a new way to purify pathogen-rich water with high efficiency and without using metal. This method can provide standard drinking water in 30 minutes with disinfection efficiency over 99.9999% under visible light irradiation.
Our Milky Way galaxy's disk of stars is anything but stable and flat. Instead, it becomes increasingly 'warped' and twisted far away from the Milky Way’s center, according to astronomers from National Astronomical Observatories of Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Based on an experiment conducted in the South China Sea in 2016, researchers from the Institute of Acoustics revealed the causes of the phenomena about horizontal refraction of acoustic waves in deep water with Ray methods (BELLHOP 3D model).
<em>Pteris vittata</em> is a vital model plant of arsenic hyperaccumulation and the arsenic in soil can be rapidly absorbed by <em>P. vittata</em> and subsequently translocated into its shoots (fronds). The lack of omics information has seriously limited the research on its arsenic hyperaccumulation and regulation mechanism. The Research Group led by Dr. HE Zhenyan from the Key Laboratory of Plant Resources, Insti...
