A study led by Dr. DU Xuemin, published in *The Innovation*, has reported a novelphotopyroelectric tweezer that combine the advantages of light and electric fields. Using a rationally designed photopyroelectric substrate with efficient and durable photo-induced surface charge-generation, it enables versatile manipulation in various working scenarios.

Advances in Atmospheric Science recently published a special topic​ on solar energy meteorology, led by scientists from the Harbin Institute of Technology and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This issue consists of five invited articles featuring progress and challenges in satellite remote sensing, solar system modeling, photovoltaic power forecasting, thermal balance of solar panels and decarbonization strategy.

Vector winds forecast by numerical weather prediction models still in need of optimization.

A new study reveals that the seasonal march of the mid-Pliocene East Asian summer monsoon was about 10 days earlier than today, providing implications for the future change from a paleoclimate perspective.

Researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences used climate simulations and reconstructions of ancient climate conditions to uncover a striking pattern: extreme warming expanded subtropical dry zones and shrank tropical wet regions in the early Eocene.

China focuses on improving air quality via the coordinated control of fine particles and ozone

The CMA-TRAMS team conducted an assimilation forecast experiment with observations that targeted Typhoon Haikui,  The data comes from the operational sounding systems called “Beidou", combined with the data from the new-generation HAIYAN-I UAV. The results showed that, with the new assimilated data, the forecast landing point of Haiku was significantly closer to reality.

Researchers led by Prof. HU Zheng from SIAT, uncovered a polyclonal origin of tumors, challenging the traditional clonal evolution theory. Using a DNA barcoding system in mouse models and genomic analysis of human colorectal samples, they demonstrated that colorectal precancers often arise from multiple distinct cellular lineages, which later transition to monoclonality as tumors progress. These findings, published in Nature, provide critical insights into the early evolution of colorectal cancer and offer new opportunities for preventing malignant transformation.
