Soybean Roots, Leaves Adopt Distinct Metabolic Responses to Heat, Nitrogen Stress

A new study has recently revealed how soybean roots and leaves employ distinct metabolic strategies under nitrogen deficiency and high-temperature stress, which may help guide the development of soybean varieties with enhanced heat tolerance and improved nitrogen-use efficiency.

Study: Forest Trees Do Little to Acclimate to Prolonged Drought

Forests support much of the world's biodiversity and play a vital role in regulating Earth's climate, but they are increasingly exposed to drought. To understand the potential consequences of drought, a key question is whether trees can acclimate to prolonged water stress by altering their physiology. Many p revious attempts to answer this question have relied on evidence from potted plants or nat

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

Fossil Pollen Reveals Rapid Rise of Gangdese Mountains Around 15 Million Years Ago

Understanding the uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau is key to grasping the geodynamic processes that formed the "Roof of the World," as well as its far-reaching impacts on regional and global climate and the evolution of Asian biodiversity. The Gangdese Mountains, which run along the southern margin of the Lhasa terrane, are central to this story and among the many topographic features of the

Integrated System Developed for Simultaneous Measurement of Aerosol Absorption and Scattering

Atmospheric aerosols absorb and scatter solar radiation, influencing atmospheric radiative processes and environmental changes. Accurate measurements of these optical properties are essential for understanding aerosol effects on climate and air quality. However, conventional instruments often rely on separate sampling lines and measurement cells, which may introduce particle losses and differences

Rural-Urban Transition Triggers Transient Resilience Loss in Social-Ecological Systems

Urbanization is accelerating globally, blurring rural-urban boundaries and creating transition zones where rural and urban processes converge. Rural-urban transition zones cover a small proportion of Earth's surface, but they accommodate about one‑quarter of the global population and contribute to climate regulation and ecosystem services. They are facing intensifying environmental pressures, infr

Researchers Reveal Temperature Sensing Mechanism for Timekeeping in Plants

The greenhouse effect leads to a gradual increase in global temperatures. How plants sense temperature change and still maintain robust circadian rhythms with an approximately 24 h period is largely unclear.

Low Temperature Graphene Growth Opens a Route to Sustainable Resource Recycling

Graphene is an exceptionally useful material for creating batteries, catalysts, and electronic devices. Yet producing graphene typically requires temperatures as high as 900°C, limiting energy efficiency and making structural control difficult. To make graphene production more practical, a recent study has overcome this long-standing temperature barrier. In a study published in the Journal of the

Machine learning doesn’t replace human intelligence, but it can outlast human endurance, which makes it a very helpful tool for chemistry and material discovery. Scientists know the machine learning models can make predictions based on the vast reams of data it is trained on, but can it take it a step further and massively scale up testing out those predictions? “We already see that AI is powerful

Green Hydrogen Production and Storage Using Alcohols, Iron, and Baker's Yeast

Hydrogen gas (H₂) is widely regarded as a promising clean energy source. By weight, it stores nearly three times more energy than gasoline, and its use does not directly release carbon dioxide (CO₂). Yet most H₂ is still produced from fossil fuels through CO₂-intensive processes. Storing and transporting this energy-rich gas are also costly and technically challenging. Therefore, developing sustai

Scientists debunk volcano myths

Volcanoes emit smoke. Beneath a volcano lies a huge chamber filled with liquid magma. A series of earthquakes means an eruption is imminent. And if a ‘supervolcano’ like Yellowstone were to awaken, a global catastrophe would be upon us. These are images and ideas that regularly crop up in news reports, documentaries and on social media.
