Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

A data-driven model for quantifying how maize yields in North-East China respond to summer climate

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
We demonstrate a data-driven approach that gives skilful annual predictions of province-scale maize yield across China’s Northeast Farming Region (NFR), using the June—August (JJA) mean temperature and total precipitation as predictors.
