New Framework Shows Expanding Ecological Decline Across Asian Drylands

A research team from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography (XIEG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has proposed a new ecosystem health framework to track long-term, consistent ecological changes across Asian drylands. Based on the framework, the team found that ecosystem health across Asian drylands declined steadily until 2012, then partially recovered after 2014. Central Asia c

Two New Species of Genus Ormosia Discovered in Guangdong

"Red berries grow in southern land, how many spring branches hold?" The red beans described by WANG Wei (701–761) in his poem have evoked the longing of the Chinese people for thousands of years. Today, right in the "southern land" mentioned in the poem—the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area—a research team has unveiled the identity of two new species of this very genus.

The genus Androsace is widely distributed across the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with notable diversity in the Alps and the Hengduan–Himalaya regions. Previous phylogenetic studies have advanced the understanding of Androsace 's evolutionary history, but its biogeographic origins and diversification history remain unresolved due to limited species sampling and low statistical sup

Artificial Photosynthetic Hydrogel Microspheres Enable Programmable CO 2 Valorization

Converting carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ) into glucose, myo-inositol, sucrose, starch and other valuable products has been considered an achievable process mainly through plant photosynthesis.

Nanobubble Chemistry Enables Catalyst‑Free Ammonia Synthesis Under Mild Conditions

Ammonia is a cornerstone of global agriculture and a promising carrier for renewable energy storage. Yet nearly all of it is still produced via the Haber‑Bosch process, which operates above 400 °C and 200 atm, consumes about two percent of global energy, and emits large amounts of carbon dioxide. That is why finding a greener route under mild conditions has become a major challenge in chemistry an

Rewiring Rumen Hydrogen Economy: New Strategy for Methane Mitigation and Sustainable Livestock Production

Methane emissions from cattle and sheep contribute to global greenhouse gas emissions and reflect a loss of dietary energy that could otherwise support animal growth and productivity, which is a major challenge for sustainable livestock production.

Millions of people living in poverty rely on seagrass meadows for survival, study finds

The research found that at least 18 million people living in poverty fish in seagrass meadows across the Indo-Pacific. Of these, around 6.5 million are entirely dependent on the habitat for both food and fishing-related income. The study also revealed that households living in extreme poverty were significantly more likely to rely on seagrass meadows for all their fishing activities. Seagrass-depe

A new study published in PNAS on August 21 reveals that a distinct population of macrophages can directly "eat" scar-forming material in the liver and promote the reversal of liver fibrosis. The finding reveals an unrecognized mechanism by which macrophages help clear fibrotic tissue: not by secreting factors, but by physically removing the extracellular matrix (ECM).
