A self-powered finger-worn wireless tracking interface for human-machine interaction
Reference #1 Abstract INTRODUCTION RESULTS DISCUSSION MATERIALS AND METHODS Acknowledgments Supplementary Materials REFERENCES eLetters (0) Information & Authors Metrics & Citations View Options References Figures Tables Media Share This article has 0 eLetter . Abstract Continuous touch positioning and trajectory tracking are essential for immersive human-machine interaction, yet conventional interfaces are fundamentally limited by rigid power supplies and tethered data transmission.
Heat-triggered phospholipid flipping stabilizes plasma membrane fluidity
Abstract Cells must rapidly counteract heat stress-induced hyperfluidization of the plasma membrane to prevent membrane damage1,2, yet how cells achieve such early protection remains unknown. Here we show that in rice (Oryza sativa), the P4-ATPase OsALA5, together with its β-subunit OsALIS2, mediates a heat-responsive flipping of saturated phosphatidylcholines that rapidly stabilizes plasma membrane fluidity.

Net release of CO 2 from thawing permafrost soil carbon predicted to occur earlier in this century
Abstract INTRODUCTION RESULTS DISCUSSION MATERIALS AND METHODS Acknowledgments Supplementary Materials REFERENCES Information & Authors Metrics & Citations View Options References Figures Tables Media Share Abstract Accelerating permafrost thaw may release vast deep (>3 meters) frozen soil carbon as carbon dioxide (CO2), but this magnitude remains uncertain because current Earth system models (ESMs) lack deep carbon processes.

Spatiotemporal patterns of methane fluxes across alpine permafrost region on the Tibetan Plateau - Nature Communications
Abstract Methane (CH4) emissions from thawing permafrost could amplify climate warming. However, long-term trajectory of net CH4 balance in permafrost regions, particularly high-altitude permafrost regions, remains unknown. Based on literature synthesis and CLM5.0 model, we evaluate the contemporary and future CH4 fluxes across the Tibetan alpine permafrost region from 1989−2100.
Warming of northern peatlands increases the global temperature overshoot challenge

Keywords: northern peatlands carbon greenhouse gases temperature feedback overshoot climate change land surface model reduced-complexity earth system model Introduction Northern peatlands (>30°N) store 400–600 Pg C in soils, and are projected to undergo more pronounced warming than the global average.1,2 If part of this carbon is destabilized, it could potentially cause large amplifying feedback on climate warming.

Self-assembling dendrimer nanodrug formulations for decreased hERG-related toxicity and enhanced therapeutic efficacy
Abstract Cardiotoxicity, especially human ether-a-go-go–related gene (hERG)–related toxicity, is a leading cause of drug failure or market withdrawal. Reducing hERG binding to obviate potential cardiac toxicity is crucial. Nanotechnology has been applied to drug delivery for reducing drug toxicity and improving efficacy, but few studies have addressed hERG-related cardiotoxicity.
Trends in the seasonal amplitude of atmospheric methane - Nature
Abstract Methane is an important greenhouse gas1 and its atmospheric concentration has almost tripled since pre-industrial times2,3,4. Atmospheric methane mixing ratios vary seasonally, with the seasonal cycle amplitude (SCA) having decreased in northern high latitudes and increased in the subtropics and tropics since the 1980s5,6. These opposing SCA trends can help understanding of long-term changes in the global methane budget, as methane emissions and sinks have opposing effects on the SCA5.

A Review of Fluid Energy Converters Based on Triboelectric Nanogenerators: Performance Analysis from Energy Conversion
2.2. Basic Working Modes of FEC-TENGs To cope with the complex energy harvesting environment and better harvest the dispersed mechanical energy in the environment, four basic working modes have been proposed for TENG according to the polarization change direction and electrode configuration, including vertical contact/separation (CS) mode, lateral-sliding (LS) mode, single-electrode (SE) mode, and freestanding triboelectric-layer (FT) mode [,].
Numerical Simulation Analysis of the Submarine Drilling-Rig Bit Flow-Noise Characteristics

Wetland emission and atmospheric sink changes explain methane growth in 2020 - Nature
Abstract Atmospheric methane growth reached an exceptionally high rate of 15.1 ± 0.4 parts per billion per year in 2020 despite a probable decrease in anthropogenic methane emissions during COVID-19 lockdowns1. Here we quantify changes in methane sources and in its atmospheric sink in 2020 compared with 2019.
Earlier ice loss accelerates lake warming in the Northern Hemisphere - Nature Communications
Abstract How lake temperatures across large geographic regions are responding to widespread alterations in ice phenology (i.e., the timing of seasonal ice formation and loss) remains unclear. Here, we analyse satellite data and global-scale simulations to investigate the contribution of long-term variations in the seasonality of lake ice to surface water temperature trends across the Northern Hemisphere.
Trade-off between tree planting and wetland conservation in China - Nature Communications
Abstract Trade-offs between tree planting programs and wetland conservation are unclear. Here, we employ satellite-derived inundation data and a process-based land surface model (ORCHIDEE-Hillslope) to investigate the impacts of tree planting on wetland dynamics in China for 2000–2016 and the potential impacts of near-term tree planting activities for 2017–2035.

Future impacts of climate change on inland Ramsar wetlands
Abstract The 1971 Ramsar Convention promotes wetland conservation worldwide, yet climate change impacts on wetland extent and associated biodiversity are unclear. Hydrological modelling and soil moisture estimates are used to quantify climate change-driven shifts in wetland area across 1,250 inland Ramsar sites. We estimate that net global wetland area expanded during 1980–2014, but 47% of sites experienced wetland loss. By 2100, a net area loss of at least 6,000 km2 (about 1%) is projected.
