Fluid–substrate coupled controls on mineral‑phase selection in the Kunlun hydrothermal system

Abstract Mineral precipitation at submarine hydrothermal vents transfers redox‑sensitive elements from the lithosphere to the ocean. However, conventional plume and sediment‑trap sampling poorly preserves particle‑scale signatures generated at reactive interfaces, hindering robus...

Evaluation of Leucine in Hydrate-based CO2 Separation Technology for Synthesized Mixture Gas

Abstract To increase the combustion calorific value, reduce the greenhouse effect of CO2, and prevent corrosion to pipelines, impurity gases such as CO2 and N2 in biogas must be effectively removed. This study investigates the effects of leucine (Leu) on the kinetics and gas sepa...

Dual Magnetite Formation Pathways in Abyssal Serpentinites From the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge

Abstract Serpentinization, which involves hydrothermal alteration of olivine and pyroxene in ultramafic rocks, generates magnetite and strongly modifies the magnetic properties of oceanic lithosphere. However, the microstructural pathways of magnetite formation and their bulk mag...

Genome-Wide Association Study of Spawning Traits and Candidate Gene Mining in Portunus trituberculatus

Portunus trituberculatus is a commercially crucial marine aquaculture crab species in China, renowned for its high economic value. Spawning performance is one of the most important target traits in selective breeding programs for this species; however, the genetic architecture un...

Dynamics of the Asian Summer Monsoon Anticyclone: insights from potential vorticity tendency diagnostics

The Asian Summer Monsoon Anticyclone (ASMA), the dominant circulation in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) during the boreal summer, undergoes pronounced spatio-temporal variability. While the climatological mean state of the ASMA is well documented, the mechani...

Global-Scale Diagnoses of Tropical Cyclone Maximum Wave Heights from 5 Km GPM Retrievals and Their Implications for Reanalysis Bias

Tropical cyclone (TC) inner-core maximum wave height (MWH) measurements are virtually absent, forcing reliance on reanalyses such as ERA5. Using a GPM-retrieved dynamic MWH product on a 5 km pixel grid, 165 global TC–GPM overpass cases of tropical-storm intensity and above, drawn...

Decomposition of phengite from residual subducted slabs enhancing lithospheric tin mineralization: Insights from K–Li–Nd isotopes

The sources and roles of volatiles in tin (Sn)-related magmatic systems remain controversial. We present integrated K–Li–Nd isotopic, trace element, and volatile data from Late Cretaceous Xishan Sn-mineralized granites in the southern margin of the South China Block to constrain...

Understanding projected uncertainty of Southern Ocean sea salt aerosol in CESM1-LE: role of internal variability

Abstract Southern Ocean (SO) sea salt aerosol is key to Earth’s energy budget, but its future changes are highly uncertain. Here using a 40-member ensemble from the Community Earth System Model Large Ensemble (CESM1-LE) project, we find that projected SO sea salt is modulated by...

A 3D VTI Factored Eikonal Solver Using a Six‐Tetrahedron Pyramidal Stencil

ABSTRACT Accurate traveltime computation for the eikonal equation is essential in seismic applications such as tomography and migration. The fast sweeping method is widely used because of its unconditional stability and computational efficiency. We develop a three‐dimensional fas...

Tracking Variability in Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Riverine Inputs to the Iberian Margin Over the Last 250 kyr

Abstract The Iberian Margin provides an exceptional archive of climate variability due to its high sedimentation rates. However, uncertainties persist regarding the provenance of terrigenous detrital sediments on the Iberian Margin, and the climate‐driven changes in their source...

Hard Carbon Networks for Mitigating Graphite Lattice Strain Under Extreme‑Low‑Temperature Fast Charging

ABSTRACT Low‐temperature fast charging of lithium‐ion batteries is primarily constrained by sluggish reaction kinetics and mechanical degradation of graphite anodes. Here, a kinetic–structural coordination strategy based on a 15 wt.% hard carbon (HC) percolating network embedded...

Changes in the tropical rainfall seasonal cycle dominated by mesoscale convective systems

Global warming is reorganizing atmospheric circulation and hydroclimate, and tropical rainfall is a key manifestation of this response. Yet how these large-scale changes are translated into the tropical rainfall seasonal cycle remains uncertain because organized convection, which...

Stoichiometry-driven electronic heterogeneity in covalent organic frameworks for coupled H2O2 photoproduction and chemoselective fragrance upgrading

Coupling H2O2 photoproduction with value-added organic transformations avoids the sluggish kinetics of water oxidation, yet integrating both processes within one photocatalyst remains challenging. Here, we report stoichiometry-driven electronic heterogeneity in covalent organic f...
