Impacts of anthropogenic aerosols on a snowfall event – a case study in the Guanzhong Basin and its surrounding areas, China

Abstract. Impacts of anthropogenic aerosols on clouds and snowfall during winter precipitation events remain highly uncertain, particularly under heavy pollution. A winter snowfall event over the Guanzhong Basin (GZB) and its surrounding regions (GZBs), China, has been simulated...

Photothermal Regulation of Reaction Intermediates at Ru–O–Mn(II) Interfaces for Enhanced Low-Temperature CO2 Methanation

Abstract Photothermal CO2 methanation offers a promising strategy for carbon-neutral fuel production. However, simultaneously achieving high activity, selectivity, and long-term stability at low temperatures remains challenging due to inherent trade-offs in reaction kinetics and...

Engineering and land use intensified climate-driven Yangtze River flood hazards since the Little Ice Age

Understanding the interplay between climate variability and human activities is essential for assessing long-term river flood hazards. Yet, the relative contributions of natural and anthropogenic drivers to flood magnitude remain poorly constrained due to limited multicentury rec...
