Research of Spatial-Temporal Variation and Correlation of Water Storage and Vegetation Coverage in the Loess Plateau

Remote Sensing
As a region with functions such as energy production and as an ecological barrier, the Loess Plateau plays a vital role in China. This study examines the spatiotemporal changes in water storage and vegetation cover and their correlations.

Leaf‐Inspired Eutectic Skin With Extreme Fatigue Resistance and Robust Wet Adhesion for Amphibious Epidermal Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by Acorus calamus leaves, a heterogeneous eutectic skin integrates an aligned fibrous network within a hydrophobic eutectogel matrix. This hierarchical architecture triggers strain‐induced crystallization to achieve exceptional mechanical toughness and durable wet adhesion.

The increased frequency of combined El Niño and positive IOD events since 1965s and its impacts on maritime continent hydroclimates

Scientific Reports, 2022
The Indian and Pacific Oceans surround the Maritime Continent (MC). Major modes of sea surface temperature variability in both oceans, including the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), can strongly affect precipitation on ...

Comparative evaluation of the dynamics of terrestrial water storage and drought incidences using multiple data sources: Tana sub-basin, Ethiopia

Journal of Water and Climate Change
Evaluating water storage changes and addressing drought challenges in areas like the Tana sub-basin in Ethiopia is difficult due to limited data availability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamics of terrestrial water anomaly and drought

Second‐Harmonic Hyper‐Mie Optical Activity Enables Closed‐Loop Chiral Photochemistry

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Nonlinear chiral photochemistry is demonstrated in CdTe/CdO nanohelices, where circularly polarized infrared light both drives and tracks photo‐oxidation via second‐harmonic scattering. This closed‐loop process reveals real‐time structural evolution, including shell fracturing and core exposure, accompanied by a transition from hyper‐Mie to hyper ...

Improved understanding of Okavango Delta inundation using GRACE-derived terrestrial water storage

Environmental Research: Water
Hydrologic contributions from the Angolan Highlands sustain the Okavango Delta, one of the world’s largest inland wetlands. Observations show a clear link between the timing, intensity, and seasonal distribution of precipitation in the Highlands and ...

Use of a multiscalar GRACE-based standardized terrestrial water storage index for assessing global hydrological droughts

, 2022
A multiscalar standardized terrestrial water storage index (STI) is proposed to assess global hydrological droughts in this study. STI is defined as the standardized statistical deviation of terrestrial water storage (TWS) measured by CSR GRACE to the ...

Double‐Sided Mechanical Interlocking Enables Soft‐Rigid Conductive Interfaces With a Record High Toughness for Flexible Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A double‐sided mechanical interlocking strategy is developed to create robust electrical contact between polymer electrode and metal interconnect. The fibrous structure enables formation of thread–hole adhesion, which only breaks under bulk failure and achieves a record high interfacial energy exceeding 730 J·m−2. This adhesion secures the integrity of

High Center‐of‐Mass, Multi‐Legged Soft Robots Powered by Geometrically Encoded Liquid Crystal Elastomer Arc Appendages

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the octopus and the golden wheel spider, soft robots with liquid crystal elastomer arc fibers as appendages are fabricated to transcend surface constraints through an elevated center of mass and minimal contact footprints. By leveraging curvature‐encoded deformation‐recovery cycles, these robots exhibit contractile, torsional, and flexural ...
