High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.

Natural Anthraquinone‐Like Compound Extracted from Green Husk of Walnut Improves Photocatalytic H2O2 Production Catalyzed by TiO2 Nanoparticles

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
In this work, a novel biomolecule/semiconductor hybrid catalyst was prepared by loading anthraquinone‐liked juglone onto anatase TiO2. This catalyst exhibited high photocatalytic activity for H2O2 production. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a vital oxidant with broad industrial applications, and its production via photocatalysis represents a highly ...
