Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Classification of nighttime light types in China’s nature protected areas based on SDGSAT-1

International Journal of Digital Earth
Protected areas play a crucial role in preserving biodiversity and providing ecosystem services. However, the encroachment of nighttime light increasingly exacerbates light pollution in these regions. Previous studies using remote sensing to assess light

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Monitoring Turkey’s nighttime light and environmental change

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment
Abstract Night lighting, population growth and climate change are major concerns for Turkey. The intensity of night lights in Turkey has increased significantly in recent years and this increase is closely linked to the rapid growth of the population and the expansion of urban areas.

Natural Product Toosendanin Suppresses the Malignant Development of Skin Melanoma by Targeting BNC2 for Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
BNC2 exhibits context‐dependent opposing functions across multiple cancer types. This study reveals BNC2 as an oncogenic driver of melanoma proliferation and metastasis through transcriptional activation of PIK3CA. The natural compound TSN simultaneously degrades BNC2 and its oncogenic partner SMAD3 via CRBN‐dependent ubiquitination.

Greener Solvents for the Photoisomerization and Catalytic Heat Release of a Norbornadiene‐Based Molecular Solar Thermal Energy Storage System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A Molecular Solar Thermal (MOST) system combining a scalable norbornadiene–quadricyclane photoswitch, a biodegradable solvent, propylene carbonate, and noble and first‐row metal catalysts, is presented. Propylene carbonate boosts photoisomerization quantum yield by 25% compared to toluene, prolongs energy storage by an additional 15 days, and enables ...
