Researchers from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a Temporal Frequency Analysis framework to identify land degradation hotspots in drylands.

An international research team led by scientists from National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has discovered an isolated pulsar located within the tidal tail of NGC 6791, one of the oldest and most massive open clusters in the Milky Way.

Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden and their collaborators identified a new fossil oak species in northern Thailand. The newly identified species, Quercus liensis, provides crucial evidence that the region experienced a cooler, wetter subtropical climate during the Late Oligocene to Early Miocene epoch, about 25 million years ago.

A research team led by Professor FU Qiaomei from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology has identified various Denisovan remains in Southwest China during the late Middle Pleistocene, including the first Denisovan radius, providing crucial insights into Denisovan geographical distribution, evolutionary history, and postcranial phenotype.

Researchers from the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IMCAS) have characterized the structural and functional properties of the emerging SARS-CoV-2 sublineage BA.3.2.2 by studying RE.2.2, the lineage designation for the BA.3.2.2 branch gaining prevalence after prolonged low detection in European surveillance datasets.

A new study by Chinese scientists from the Institute of Psychology suggests that the answer may lie in how music unfolds over time. Rather than merely distracting us from a stressful experience, music appears to engage the brain's stress-regulation system through evolving patterns of tension and resolution.

Researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with UK researchers, investigated the potential of TanSat-2 observations for assessing anthropogenic carbon emissions and ecosystem carbon sinks.

Researchers from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with researchers from the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of CAS, have developed a coumarin-linked covalent organic framework that enables high-efficiency photocatalytic water splitting for hydrogen production.

Scientists from the Institute of Hydrobiology and their collaborators have found that targeted fish removals can enhance native fish biodiversity and improve ecosystem functioning in freshwater protected areas, offering an approach to freshwater conservation than fishing bans alone.

Researchers from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with other institutions, have quantified how cell-to-cell inconsistency undermines electric vehicle battery pack performance.

Comparing "twin" supernovae SN 2021pfs and SN 2011fe, astronomers from the Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, with collaboarotors, found that progenitor metallicity introduces subtle brightness variations in Type Ia supernovae.

Researchers from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics with collaborators revealed that active motifs can be generated in situ through the reconstruction of NiO surface during POM, identifying the atomic-scale origin of catalytic activity.

Scientists from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have recently found that a long‑term dominant diatom in China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project maintains its edge through a mutually reinforced cycle with bacteria.

Prof. WANG Hui's team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, along with Prof. FAN Kelong's team from the Institute of Biophysics, developed an iron dual-atom nanozyme with highly efficient catalase-like activity, showing promise for treating rheumatoid arthritis.

A team led by Prof. WANG Zhenyang from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed an electromagnetic wave-absorbing metastructure that can absorb microwaves over a broad frequency range while also supporting loads and removing ice through electrical heating.

Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have discovered two new species of Begonia in the karst region of Guangxi, China. The two species, Begonia renkunii and Begonia tianyangensis, were identified from specimens collected during field surveys in Baise City.

A team led by Prof. ZHENG Wei and Prof. YE Shiwei from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a large-FOV, dual-region, two-photon fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (LD-2P-FLIM) system, which features a large space-bandwidth product (SBP) and high data throughput for multiparametric and quantitative brain function imaging.

A research team led by Prof. WU Zhengyan and Prof. ZHANG Jia from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a carbon dot-stabilized and coordination-gated nanocarrier formulation (NFCT), which helps protect iron from oxidation and keep it on plant leaves after rainfall.
