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 ...

Decoupling Stable Cyclic Deformation From Defect Accumulation in Metals
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Introducing amorphous nanoparticles into a metal matrix enables a cyclic deformation regime where strain hardening and defect accumulation are decoupled. These nanoparticles act as dislocation sinks and undergo reversible shear transformations, sustaining microstructural stability over millions of cycles.
