Coupled Above‐ and Belowground Ecosystem Stability Worldwide
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Are the worlds above and below our feet in sync? This global exploration reveals an entangled fate between above‐ and belowground ecosystem stability. It identifies arid regions as hotspots for this coupling and highlights temperature stability as a vital safeguard for maintaining ecosystem balance across our warming planet.

Developing a Universal Framework for Estimating Soybean Leaf Area Index Growth
AgronomyLeaf Area Index (LAI) is a key variable in modeling plant growth because it is the site of photosynthesis. However, there are significant differences in LAI between different models and between models and satellite-derived estimates.

Universal Entanglement and an Information‐Complete Quantum Theory
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.This Perspective summarize an informationcomplete quantum theory which describes a fully quantum world without any classical systems and concepts. Here spacetime/gravity, having to be a physical quantum system, universally entangles matter (matter fermions and their gauge fields) as an indivisible trinity, and encodes information‐complete physical ...
