Printing with ice

Physicists from the University of Amsterdam have developed a method to print three-dimensional structures in ice. Last December, the work gathered a lot of attention when the researchers 3D-printed a Christmas tree. In the scientific publication that came out this week, the researchers also show how small pillars can be printed under an angle, making it possible to print arbitrary profiles in ice that don’t need any additional support.

科学家提出基于土地变化趋势的时间频率分析框架

土地退化是影响全球生态系统服务功能的重要生态问题。联合国防治荒漠化公约将“土地退化零增长”（LDN）确立为可持续发展核心目标，旨在实现土地损失与收益的动态平衡。然而，传统LDN评估多依赖固定历史基线的静态比较，在气候波动剧烈的干旱区易将短期气候变异与长期退化趋势混淆，难以精准识别需优先干预的持续性退化区域，导致宏观报告与地方景观过程认知之间存在脱节。
