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 ...

The New Titan Planetary Climate Model. II. Titan’s Haze and Cloud Cycles
The Planetary Science JournalObservations of Titan have long revealed the presence of seasonal cycles, including haze, clouds, and gases. The lack of information on the different processes that govern these cycles prevents us from understanding all the phenomena taking place in ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This perspective proposes a cohesive machine learning strategy to decode microplastic aging. It advocates for Federated Learning to dismantle global data silos and introduces the TRACE framework (TRansport, Aging, Corona, Ecotoxicity). By integrating physics‐informed modeling with causal discovery, this approach bridges the laboratory‐field gap to ...

The Final Ascent: from refuges to ruins in a warming world [PDF]
Research Ideas and OutcomesMountains exemplify how climate change transforms long-standing refuges into zones of loss. As species track suitable climates upslope, they confront absolute ecological limits.

From Defense Executor to Engineering Target: Harnessing Lignin for Crop Resistance
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lignin serves as both a physical and chemical executor of broad‐spectrum plant immunity. This review systematically summarizes classical and recent advances in lignin‐mediated immunity, outlines the multifaceted regulatory modules controlling lignification under biotic stress, discusses key physiological and biochemical mechanisms behind lignin‐based ...

Impacts of Atmospheric Carbon Species and Stellar Type on Climates of Terrestrial Planets
The Planetary Science JournalThe climates of terrestrial planets are largely determined by the composition of their atmospheres and the spectral types of their host stars. Previous studies suggest that a wide range of carbon species abundances (CO _2 , CO, and CH _4 ) can result ...

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The
