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.

Solar‐Driven Bifunctional Adsorption‐Storage Films for Ultra‐Fast Dehumidification and Freshwater Supply in Low‐carbon Buildings

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bifunctional adsorption‐storage films enable autonomous indoor humidity regulation and freshwater harvesting, rapidly decreasing relative humidity from 90.7% to 21.6% within one hour while producing 1.1 kg·m−2·day−1 of water, offering a passive route towards energy‐efficient humidity control and sustainable indoor environments. ABSTRACT Indoor humidity

Causal‐Guided Ultra‐Long‐Term Time Series Forecasting Via Anticipated Covariates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Often treated as unknown, information from the future remains underutilized.We demonstrate that in a coupled dynamical system, providing the future state of the effect enables accurate forecasting of the cause for a long timesteps. A time series forecasting paradigm that introduces anticipated covariates to represent such known future states is ...

ZrO2 Aerogel‐Supported Pd Nanoparticles for Photothermal CO2 Reduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoparticle‐based aerogels are promising catalysts for photothermal reactions due to optical transparency, high surface area, and low thermal conductivity. Here, we present deposition of Pd nanoparticles on ZrO2 aerogel granules by a wet‐impregnation approach.

Curvature‐Controlled Field Effect Enables Thermal Localization for Low‐Temperature C─F Bond Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐curvature γ‐Al2O3 nanoneedles concentrate heat into nanoscale hotspots under identical external heating, amplifying local temperature and accelerating CF4 decomposition. By linking curvature‐induced thermal localization to lower apparent activation barriers and enhanced intermediate formation, this work reveals geometry as a powerful design ...
