The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) has successfully completed filling its 20,000-tons liquid scintillator detector and begun data taking on August 26. After more than a decade of preparation and construction, JUNO is the first of a new generation of very large neutrino experiments to reach this stage.

Chinese researchers led by Prof. WANG Wenda and Prof. TIAN Lijin from the Institute of Botany have revealed a breakthrough in understanding the light-harvesting efficiency of coccolithophores.
Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have solved part of that puzzle, identifying a specific transcriptional module "WmABF1-1-WmMYB111" that controls the plant's leaf senescence and underpins its survival.
A research team led by Prof. YANG Yuanhe from the Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with partners, has found that prolonged warming significantly reduces soil nitrogen (N) stocks in Tibetan permafrost ecosystems.
Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences synthesized decades of research on fungicides through a global meta-analysis, and they revealed the complex and varied effects of fungicides on wild plant at species and community levels.
Jie Bulu is a tea farmer from the Jino, one of the smallest ethnic minority groups in China. For this year's China International Fair for Trade in Services, he brought tea harvested from 300-year-old trees in his hometown, hoping to introduce the pride of his people to the rest of the country and the world. Jie Bulu is not alone at the exhibition of the "One Country, One Priority Product" platform, initiated by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
When scientists established China's first ecosystem research station for temperate steppe on this vast grassland 46 years ago, it took a five-hour drive to the nearest town just to make a phone call. Today, the scene has changed dramatically: drones soar overhead, satellites monitor from space, and LiDAR technology meticulously scans the vegetation below. This integrated network is aimed at safeguarding the grasslands of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in northern China.
Chinese researchers have developed a hybrid framework to trace sources and change of on-road carbon dioxide emissions in real time with 30-meter resolution, according to a research article recently published in the journal Sustainable Cities and Society.This technology is being applied in Shenzhen, south China's Guangdong Province, and is expected to be used in more cities in the future to assess and promote carbon dioxide reduction on urban roads.
Scientists have made a significant advancement in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen dissociation, offering a promising pathway to more sustainable chemical manufacturing with lower energy use and reduced environmental impact.
