Salinity affects crop growth and productivity, and this stress can be increased along with drought or high temperature stresses and poor irrigation management. Cultivation of salt-tolerant crops plays a critical role in enhancing crop yield under salt stress. In the past few decades, the mechanisms of plant adaptation to salt stress have been described, especially relying on ionic homeostasis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, and phytohormone signaling.

Non-linear least squares (NLS) methods are commonly used for quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), especially for multi-exponential T1ρ mapping, which provides precise parameter estimation for different relaxation models in tissues, such as mono-exponential (ME), bi-exponential (BE), and stretched-exponential (SE) models. However, NLS may suffer from problems like sensitivity to initial guesses, slow convergence speed, and high computational cost. While deep learning (DL)-based T1ρ fitting methods offer faster alternatives, they often face challenges such as noise sensitivity and reliance on NLS-generated reference data for training.

Atom interferometry shows high sensitivity for inertial measurements in the laboratory, but it faces difficulties in field applications because of a trade-off between sensitivity and size. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a small sensor with high resolution for measuring acceleration and rotation in inertial navigation applications. Presented here is a miniaturized inertial sensor capable of measuring acceleration and rotation simultaneously based on high-resolution dual atom interferometers.

The global transition to clean energy technologies has escalated the demand for lithium (Li), a critical component in rechargeable Li-ion batteries, highlighting the urgent need for efficient and sustainable Li extraction methods. Nanofiltration (NF)-based separations have emerged as a promising solution, offering selective separation capabilities that could advance resource extraction and recovery. However, an NF-based lithium extraction process differs significantly from conventional water treatment, necessitating a paradigm shift in membrane materials design, performance evaluation metrics, and process optimization.

With the acceleration of urbanization, unreasonable land use poses a serious threat to ecological security. However, there is still some space for improvement in the existing assessment of ecological risks (ERs) caused by land use/land cover change (LUCC). Therefore, this study takes the central Yunnan Province (CYP) as an example, and uses the Patch-Generating Land Use Simulation (PLUS) model and the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Trade-offs (InVEST) model to simulate the land use/land cover (LULC) in different scenarios in the future, calculate the ecosystem services (ESs) from 2000 to 2020 and the next 20 years, as well as ERs of various types of ESs caused by LUCC.
