A research team led by Prof. WU Qingbai from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified important non-temperature environmental factors contributing to permafrost degradation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
A research team led by Prof. WU Rongchang from the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with international partners, has presented a comprehensive δ¹³Corg sequence spanning the upper Lower to lower Upper Ordovician. Derived from the Hule-1 core in the Jiangnan slope of South China, the study fills a critical knowledge void by documenting the Middle Darriwilian Isotopic Carbon Excursion (MDICE) in the δ¹³Corg record.
Led by the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a new international study has provided farmers and policymakers with a roadmap to grow maize—one of the world's most vital crops—in a way that balances high productivity with planetary health.
Researchers from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and their collaborators discovered and analyzed a large pipe swarm—a cluster of cylindrical geological structures—with remnants of hydrogen hydrothermal activity on the east Caroline Plate, west of the Mussau Trench.
A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Binbin from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a superhydrophobic composite coating with mechanical stability and long-term anti-corrosion performance by utilizing recycled tire rubber particles as armored skeleton structure.
A research team led by Prof. HUANG Diying from the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified three species of Jurassic orthopterans—an insect group that includes grasshoppers, crickets and katydids—with forewing patterns nearly identical to the leaves of bennettitales, an extinct, cycad-like seed plant.
