Spatial pattern and structural transformation of industrial carbon dioxide emissions in China

Abstract Industrial carbon emissions are a critical component of China’s carbon peaking and carbon neutrality strategy, yet their long-term spatial evolution and underlying drivers remain insufficiently understood. Using the China City Greenhouse Gas (CCG) dataset and urban stati...

Poleward Redistribution of Tropical Cyclone Hazards over East Asia

Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) in the western North Pacific have undergone notable changes over recent decades alongside ocean warming and large-scale atmospheric circulation variability. Using TC best-track data from 1980 to 2025, we identify a pronounced poleward redistributi...

Homogeneous Positive Surface Charge via Interfacial Amino‐yne Polymerization for Efficient Li + /Mg 2+ Separation

ABSTRACT Efficient Li + /Mg 2+ separation is essential for lithium recovery from salt‐lake brines, yet remains highly challenging because of the similar physicochemical properties of these ions and the large excess of Mg 2+ in practical feed streams. Polyamide (PA) membranes offe...

Hot Pressing Sintering and Properties of Silicon Carbide/Graphite Composite Ceramics Containing 30 wt% Graphite

ABSTRACT Silicon carbide/graphite composite ceramics containing 30 wt% (SiC/C30) and 35 wt% (SiC/C35) graphite were fabricated by hot pressing sintering, and the sintering behavior, microstructure, mechanical properties, and functional properties of the composite ceramics were in...

Spatiotemporal all-optical diffractive neural networks empowered by spatiotemporal light field manipulation

All-optical neural networks (AONNs) offer significant potential for feature detection and pattern recognition by leveraging light-speed processing, high parallelism, and low energy consumption. However, traditional AONNs are limited to spatial light intensity distributions for bo...

Career plateau among prison police officers in western China: a cross-sectional study

Background: Career plateau reflects perceived limits on career advancement or meaningful work development. This study examined career plateau and its associations with work-family conflict, perceived organizational support, and occupational characteristics among prison police off...

Manure to insect farming for feed mitigates nitrogen and greenhouse gas emissions

Livestock manure is nutrient-rich and represents a promising feedstock for insect farming, with insect protein offering a high-quality alternative to conventional crop-based livestock feed. This pathway has substantial potential to mitigate nitrogen (N) and greenhouse gas (GHG) e...

Effect of Ru on Interfacial Re Segregation and Low-Cycle Fatigue Behavior of NiAlRe and NiAlReRu Model Superalloys

The effects of Ru on Re segregation and low-cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior were investigated in two model single-crystal superalloys, Ni-8.5Al-4Re and Ni-8.5Al-4Re-2Ru (wt.%). Microstructural morphology, elemental distribution, fatigue deformation behavior, and dislocation structur...

Neoadjuvant therapy and minimally invasive surgery for pancreatic cancer: current evidence and surgical decision-making

Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) is standard care for borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). While minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is increasingly utilized post-NAT, surgical decision-making and technical feasibility remain debated. This review evaluates cur...

A Class of C 2 Point-Normal Subdivision Surfaces and Their Exact Evaluation at Arbitrary Parameters

This paper proposes techniques to construct and evaluate C 2 subdivision surfaces under control of quadrilateral meshes with unit normal vectors at the vertices. An improved C 2 modification of the Catmull-Clark subdivision scheme is first given by tuning the eigenvalues of subdi...

Joint associations of problematic smartphone use and cyberbullying victimization with depressive and anxiety symptoms among Chinese primary and secondary school students: a large-scale school-based study

Problematic smartphone use (PSU) and cyberbullying victimization (CBV) are independently associated with emotional problems among adolescents. However, whether their co-occurrence is associated with a greater burden of depressive and anxiety symptoms remains unclear. This study e...

Intrinsic Planar Defects Govern Durability in Single-Crystal Ni-Rich Cathodes

Abstract Single-crystal Ni-rich layered oxides are promising cathodes for high energy-density lithium-ion batteries, yet their electrochemical stability remains unexpectedly difficult to reconcile with the anticipated benefits of a grain-boundary-free architecture. Here, we revea...
