A Global Methane Observation System to Reduce Uncertainty for Anthropogenic and Natural Sources and Sinks for Detecting and Attributing Climate Feedbacks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conceptual illustration of a Global Ecosystem Methane Observing System (GEM‐OS) integrating satellites, aircraft, atmospheric networks, and ecosystem measurements to quantify methane emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. The multi‐scale observing framework improves source attribution, reduces uncertainty in regional methane budgets, and ...

Development and Applications of a Magnetism‐Aware General‐Purpose Atomic Cluster Expansion Potential for the Fe‐O‐H Ternary System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐driven iron oxide reduction, water‐iron corrosion, and hydrogen embrittlement of metallic iron share the same Fe‐O‐H chemistry. A general‐purpose Atomic Cluster Expansion potential covers this chemistry across the full concentration range with explicit Ising‐like treatment of magnetism.

Rainfall Shapes the Diversity of Soil Nitrogen‐Fixing Microorganisms Worldwide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the distinctive pattern and mechanism of rainfall driving the global biodiversity and biogeography of soil potential N‐fixing microorganisms, and constructs the theoretical framework. The results guide us on how to maintain ecosystem productivity under future climate changes (e.g., whether a specific region needs more N fertilizers ...

Unveiling a Near‐Total Rear Passivation for High Performance of Ultra‐Thin ACIGS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ultra‐thin solar cells of (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 (ACIGS) suffer from rear interface recombination, limiting their performance. To tackle it, a full coverage plasma enhanced chemically vapor‐deposited 8 nm porous SiOx passivation layer was implemented and evaluated. It is shown that a combination of the near‐complete passivation from silica and the formation

SynNotch Receptors for Visualizing Immunoreceptor Force Transmission and Downstream Signaling In Vivo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically activated SynNotch reporter platform enables detection of force transmission through receptors as they mediate immune cell interactions. Targeting CD40 on B cells and TCR on T cells records force‐induced reporter activation across 2D coculture, 3D organoid, and implanted in mice, which also reveal force‐amplification of immune receptor ...
