  • New Study Reveals How High Temperatures Disrupt Anthocyanin Metabolism in Red Kiwifruit

    Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences used "Hongyang" kiwifruit to simulate high-temperature stress (30°C, 35°C, 40°C, compared with a 25°C control). They systematically monitored physiological indicators, transcriptome characteristics, and dynamic changes in related metabolites to clarify how high-temperature stress affects anthocyanin biosynthesis and stability, providing a theoretical basis for developing fruit quality regulation strategies under high-temperature conditions.

  • New Study Reveals Interhemispheric Thermal Imbalance Key to Asian-Australian Monsoon Variability

    A research team led by Prof. YAN Hong from the Institute of Earth Environment of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Australian scholars, reconstructed Australian summer monsoon (AuSM) variability over the past 13.5 ka using a 5.13-m-long sediment core from Bromfield Swamp in the tropical monsoon region of northern Australia.

  • Study Reveals How Superionic State Enables Long-Term Water Storage in Earth's Interior

    A research team from the Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators, used complementary molecular dynamics simulations, combining ab initio and deep-learning potential methods. Their findings reveal that under deep lower mantle and core–mantle boundary (CMB) conditions, water and the key hydrous mineral δ-AlOOH enter a superionic state—which combines features of a solid crystal lattice with liquid-like mobile ions—thereby fundamentally altering their stability and dehydration behavior.

  • Satellite Study Reveals 24.2 Billion Tonne Annual Groundwater Loss in High Mountain Asia

    A recent satellite-based study has uncovered alarming declines in groundwater storage across High Mountain Asia, widely known as the "Asian Water Tower". This critical water source, which sustains agricultural irrigation, urban water supplies and ecological security for hundreds of millions of people in more than a dozen downstream countries, is depleting at a staggering rate of approximately 24.2 billion tonnes per year.
