Optimal Grazing Exclusion Duration to Enhance Soil Carbon Sequestration in Degraded Grasslands
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Across China, grazing exclusion reaches the national mean soil organic carbon recovery benchmark sooner in high‐MAP regions (> 500 mm), but recovery is much slower where MAP < 300 mm. Scaling this strategy to 70% of China's degraded grasslands would sequester about 1.52 Pg of soil carbon over 10 years—roughly 17% of annual global fossil‐fuel emissions.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We show that interfacial oxygen at the MgO/Fe interface can be transformed from an uncontrolled variable into a tunable design parameter for spintronic junctions. Momentum microscopy provides direct access to the momentum‐ and spin‐resolved electronic structure beneath the insulating MgO layers, revealing how oxygen intercalation reshapes buried Fe ...

Surface Plasmon Enhanced Photoluminescence of Carbon Dots Formed In Situ on Silver Gratings
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Carbon emitters formed in situ on a silver grating via plasmonic catalysis yield enhanced spontaneous emission by preferential radiative decay into surface plasmons. Enhancement manifests as emission exhibiting characteristics of coherence (polarization, directionality), and accelerated lifetimes of ∼30 ps, yielding Purcell factors of ∼70.
