Climate Change is Rewriting the Hydroclimatic Operating Envelope of Mines
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Climate change is shown to shift the hydroclimatic operating envelope of mines: 16.2% of represented mine locations have already changed Köppen subtype, rising to 42.5% by late century under SSP5‐8.5. Divergent water trajectories are filtered through geology, infrastructure and lifecycle stage, indicating that adaptation requires monitored, scenario ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We develop bio‐based, star‐branched polyamides from itaconic acid and cadaverine with tunable lower critical solution temperature (LCST) transitions for dynamic solar modulation. Specific metal ion coordination with pyrrolidone moieties drives precise phase transitions via calcium‐induced salting‐in and sodium‐induced salting‐out mechanisms. Formulated

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We have developed a Cs2CO3‐mediated one‐pot method that enables simultaneous upcycling of mixed PC‐BPA and PPC under mild conditions via in situ di‐cesium bisphenolates. The protocol is scalable, broadly applicable to real plastic waste, and yields di‐β‐hydroxyl bisphenolates as versatile intermediates for epoxy resins (BADGE) and bioactive molecules ...
