A multidisciplinary study led by researchers from the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has uncovered the first definitive evidence of Middle Paleolithic Quina technology in East Asia.
An international research team led by scientists from the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered an exceptionally preserved phosphatic stromatoporoid sponge from the Early Ordovician, dating back about 480 million years, in Yuan’an, Yichang, South China.
A research team from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS) utilized a Stepwise Feed-Forward Neural Network (Stepwise FFNN) algorithm. They integrated observational data from the Global Ocean Data Analysis Project (GLODAP) to create a global monthly 3D gridded pH dataset spanning the past 30 years.
A research team led by Prof. LUAN Fubo from the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has uncovered a novel mechanism involving a ternary surface complex on titanium dioxide (TiO₂) that improves the simultaneous removal of arsenic (As) and uranium (U) from contaminated groundwater.
A study conducted by researchers at the Institute of Applied Ecology has uncovered how widely used agricultural chemicals, designed to enhance fertilizer efficiency, may reshape soil microbial ecosystems, showing that urease inhibitors—chemicals added to slow the breakdown of urea fertilizers—trigger compensatory mechanisms in soil microbes.
A recent study conducted by researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology reveals that adding nitrogen to temperate grasslands disrupts the natural balance between nitrogen and phosphorus in plants, with root systems showing a notably stronger response than aboveground organs.
