Advances in vital‐sign prediction and early‐warning models for underground coal mine workers integrating environmental factors

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes advances in predicting miners' vital signs by integrating environmental monitoring (dust, temperature, and gas) with physiological data. It highlights multi‐source data fusion techniques and early‐warning models for enhanced occupational safety in underground coal mines.

Fluorescent Colored Passive Radiative Cooling Based on Carbon Dots for Cooling Power Recovery

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
We demonstrate colored passive radiative coolers consisting of a highly reflective porous ceramic base covered by an eco‐friendly luminescent carbon dot‐polymer composite, with two types of carbon dots enabling conversion of either ultraviolet or visible light, respectively.

Bacterial symbiont as game changers for Aphis craccivora Koch’s fitness and survival across distinct climate types

open access: yesScientific Reports
Symbiotic bacteria play a crucial role in the survival, development, and adaptation of aphids to environmental conditions. Buchnera aphidicola (Enterobacterales: Erwiniaceae), the obligate endosymbiont of aphids, is essential for their fitness, while ...

Thermal baselines and climate‐space geometry mediate systematic terrestrial biodiversity responses to warming

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Global warming is rapidly restructuring biological communities, yet terrestrial ecosystems often appear to lack the systematic climate‐driven signatures observed in marine realms. We hypothesise that this apparent idiosyncrasy arises from neglecting the geographic structure of climate.

Synergistic Design of Composite Ionogels With Enhanced Thermoelectric Properties, Mechanical Stretchability, and Sustainable Recyclability

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
While flexible TE devices hold promise for converting low‐grade waste heat (e.g., from human skin or electronics) into usable electricity, existing materials suffer from three major limitations: 1) poor mechanical stretchability (failing to match human skin's elongation, ~20–30%), limiting wearability; 2) tradeoffs between thermoelectric efficiency (e ...
