A research team led by Prof. BI Haibo from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed that accelerated warming in the North Pacific has contributed to a significant slowdown in Arctic summer sea ice loss since 2007.
A new study led by the Nanjing Institute of Geography and Limnology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed that lake heatwaves are generally more intense, longer-lasting, and more frequent than their atmospheric counterparts.
A research team led by Prof. QI Shengwen from the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted fixed-funnel and rotating-drum experiments to measure the angle of repose, a key parameter reflecting the flowability of granular materials. The results showed that Chang'e-6 soil has a significantly higher angle of repose than near-side samples, exhibiting flow behavior characteristic of cohesive soils.
Researchers from the Institute of Earth Environment of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have presented a two-century-long reconstruction of summer relative humidity for the southern China's Central Water Tower (CCWT). The reconstruction relies on high-resolution tree-ring δ18O records.
A research team from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed an assessment and monitoring framework. The tool standardizes and integrates multiple "essential ocean variables" to pinpoint when and where the ocean is clearly affected by compound state change amid a warming climate.
Climate change is accelerating the reorganization of river-lake systems on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, reshaping hydrological and ecological processes in the "Asian Water Tower". A new study led by Prof. LU Shanlong from the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reveals the Zonag-Yanhu drainage basin, once isolated, has undergone rapid transformation since 2019, when it connected to the headwaters of the Yangtze River.
