Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Geodetic glacier mass loss in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago: Photogrammetric analysis of historical aerial photographs (1958–2023)

Journal of Glaciology
The Canadian Arctic Archipelago constitutes a primary source of contemporary sea-level rise from glaciers and ice caps, yet glacier-scale, multi-decadal records on Baffin and Bylot Islands remain limited.

Post-breeding season migrations of a top predator, the harbor seal (Phoca vitulina richardii), from a marine protected area in Alaska. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are increasingly being used as a conservation tool for highly mobile marine vertebrates and the focus is typically on protecting breeding areas where individuals are aggregated seasonally.

A Rare De Novo Missense Mutation in IFT122 Confers a Genetic Susceptibility Factor of Idiopathic Pediatric Uveitis Via Trio‐based Whole‐Exome Sequencing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rare de novo IFT122‐A773E variant is identified in idiopathic pediatric uveitis and shown to exacerbate retinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction. Mechanistically, the variant enhances IFT43 interaction, elevates calcium signaling, and activates the MEK/ERK/FRA1 axis, revealing a previously unrecognized cilia‐associated pathway that may increase ...

Grain Boundary Structure Ordering via Electroshock Treatment Enhances Strength‐Ductility Synergy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Electroshock treatment triggers atomic rearrangement, transforming disordered grain boundaries into ordered states without inducing recrystallization. This grain boundary ordering effectively relieves strain concentration and strengthens boundaries, enabling a simultaneous improvement in both strength and ductility.

Covalently Linked Peptides and Membrane Potential Enable CyaA Segment Translocation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a newly developed Droplet Interface Bilayer‐Pipette assay, the authors show that two segments of the CyaA toxin cross membranes by distinct mechanisms. One segment translocates spontaneously, whereas the translocation of the other depends on membrane potential.

Loss of CYLD on Chromosome 16q Impairs Homologous Recombination and Genomic Stability Through TIRR Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chromosome 16q loss drives genomic instability through disruption of the CYLD–TIRR–53BP1 axis. CYLD preserves homologous recombination by stabilizing TIRR and limiting 53BP1 accumulation at DNA double‐strand breaks. CYLD deficiency redirects repair toward error‐prone non‐homologous end joining, promotes mutational burden and homologous recombination ...

Freestanding Hierarchical‐Porous BCZT Thin Films Enable Efficient Ultrasonic Energy Harvesting in Soft Tissue

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Freestanding hierarchical‐porous BCZT thin films integrate a compliant porous surface with a dense piezoceramic backbone to balance mechanical reliability, voltage sensitivity, and acoustic coupling. The films enable stable wearable pulse‐wave monitoring and enhanced tissue‐coupled ultrasonic energy harvesting, offering a promising route toward soft ...

Disturbance of a rare seabird by ship-based tourism in a marine protected area.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Managers of marine protected areas (MPAs) must often seek ways to allow for visitation while minimizing impacts to the resources they are intended to protect.

Space Jam‐Ming: Generating Interstitial Space Using Fragmented Granular GelMA to Investigate Novel Paradigms of Cancer Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microgels enable independent control of stiffness and interstitial space, overcoming limitations of conventional 3D hydrogels. Using fragmented gelatin methacryloyl microgels, we show that stiffness does not restrict non‐metastatic breast cancer growth, contrary to bulk hydrogels, and reveal the role of adherent‐to‐suspension transition in cancer ...
