The persistence of endangered species in seasonal alpine ecosystems depends on their ability to adjust to fluctuating resources and potential interspecific interactions across multiple niche dimensions. Using camera traps, two-species occupancy models, diel activity analyses, and...

ABSTRACT Montane forest birds are highly vulnerable to climate warming because their habitats are often fragmented, topographically constrained, and difficult to track through dispersal. For Lady Amherst's Pheasant ( Chrysolophus amherstiae ), future climate risks remain poorly u...

Earthquake prediction has long been considered one of the greatest challenges in the global scientific community due to the complex and uncertain nature of seismogenic processes, along with the prevailing consensus that earthquakes are inherently unpredictable. Here, we present a...

Electromagnetic Localization 6-DoF Pose Estimation with TGNet-Guided Initial Value Refinement
High-precision electromagnetic localization shows great promise for applications in medical treatment, embodied intelligence, entertainment, and gaming. However, six-degree-of-freedom (6-DoF) coil pose estimation is essentially a highly nonlinear inverse problem. Numerical iterat...

Abstract Conventional ammonia electrosynthesis via the nitrite reduction reaction (NO2RR) is generally paired with the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, the intrinsically sluggish kinetic of the OER severely limits the overall energy efficiency of such electrolysis...

Ecology and Brain Size Drive Feeding Innovations in Birds
Feeding innovations, reflecting behavioral plasticity, are crucial for animals adapting to rapidly changing environments. Although larger brains are theorized to enhance adaptability by increasing behavioral flexibility, the combined influences of brain size and ecological factor...

Sperm competition shapes anuran testicular architecture through tubule and tissue adjustments
Abstract Testis morphology may act as a determinant of sperm size, and the evolutionary pressure to produce longer sperm may impose functional constraints on testicular architecture. Postcopulatory sexual selection, particularly sperm competition, is widely recognised as a primar...

Component Self‐Initiated Photopolymerization for Gel Polymer Electrolytes in Zinc–Air Batteries
ABSTRACT Flexible zinc–air batteries (FZABs) require gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) to ensure ionic transport, interfacial stability, and mechanical flexibility, yet their development is limited by trade‐offs among mechanical robustness, low‐temperature tolerance, and fabricatio...
