Extra Climate Benefits From Afforestation Due to Reduced Forest Fragmentation in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Afforestation in China reduced forest fragmentation in 2015, transforming 51.8 M ha of edge forests into interior forests. This enhanced carbon sequestration (1.4±0.2 Pg CO2e, a cooling biogeochemical effect), while reduced albedo (−0.9 Pg CO2e, a warming biophysical effect) partially offset the gain, yielding a net extra climate benefit of ...

Molecular Evolution of H2O:O2 Ices at Different Temperatures in Simulated Space Environments. II. Evolution of Reaction Pathways

The Astrophysical Journal
In this continuation of our study on the chemical evolution of H _2 O:O _2 ices (6:1 ratio) under analog cosmic-ray irradiation (0.8 MeV H ^+ ) at 9, 50, and 100 K, we investigate changes in the reaction pathways that influence the formation and ...

Magnetically Boosted Water‐Splitting Performance in Metallic Glasses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A strategy for boosting water electrolysis efficiency using ultralow magnetic fields on soft‐magnetic MG wires is reported. Ni40Fe40P20 metallic glass exhibits superior overall water‐splitting performance (1.51 V @ 1000 mA cm−2) at 100 Oe, enabled by spin polarization in periodic surface magnetic domains to enhance orbital hybridization and net spin ...

Experimental Examination of Brine and Water Lifetimes after Impact on Airless Worlds

The Planetary Science Journal
The role played by transient impact-induced endogenous brines in the formation of geomorphic features has been proposed on airless worlds such as Europa, Vesta, and Ceres, as well as on worlds with thin atmospheres such as Mars.

Machine Learning Accelerated Non‐Adiabatic Molecular Dynamics Elucidates Local Polarization Effects on Non‐radiative Recombination in Halide Perovskites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work proposes and constructs the Hefei‐NAMD‐S framework based on machine learning stacked models to investigate the relationship between local polarization and non‐radiative recombination. The results indicate that, compared with A‐site local polarization, B‐site local polarization shows a more evident association with the non‐radiative ...

An Efficient Method for Measuring the Color of a Natural Satellite with Astrometric Applications

The Astronomical Journal
The Gaia DR3 catalog released in 2022 contains precise broadband photometry for more than one billion stars in the G , BP, and RP passbands, which is very useful for calibrating the differential color refraction (DCR) effect in ground-based observations.

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

The influence of hypothetical exomoons on planetary thermal phase curves

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. More than 200 moons exist in our Solar System, yet no exomoon has been confirmed to date. While the innermost two planets of the Solar System lack natural satellites and most studies favour the existence of exomoons around long-period planets ...

Reconstruction of Nickel Chalcogenide Induced Ruthenium Nanoparticles Embedding for Oxygen Evolution: Mechanism Switching Enables Enhanced Catalytic Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ru nanoparticles supported nickel chalcogens (Ru/NiX, X = S, Se), which enable fast electrooxidation to form an adaptively Ru embedding structure, featured by the compressed Ru─O─Ni bridge bonds at the Ru/NiOOH interface. On the one hand, Ru nanoparticles have a high affinity for capturing the OH−, consequently increasing the *O radical coverage.

Furfuryl Alcohol‐Driven Proton Supply Enables Efficient Photocatalytic H2O2 Production Beyond Water‐Based Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A ZnIn2S4–carbon dot heterojunction enables photocatalytic H2O2 production coupled with furfuryl alcohol oxidation. In this redox system, furfuryl alcohol acts as both the electron donor and oxidation substrate, producing furoic acid with 100% selectivity and 98% conversion while supporting efficient H2O2 generation with a solar‐to‐chemical conversion (
