Advancing Efficient Decarbonization: Trade-offs and synergies among carbon mitigation policies
Our study in Nature Climate Change has considered the mitigation policy interactions using the CEEGE model. With multiple policy combination options, we find that in most cases these interactions will delay the achievement of carbon neutrality in China.
Cyclone Biparjoy and Phosphorus Transitions: Tracing Dust Pathways to Asia’s Largest Grassland
Dust transport plays a crucial role in global nutrient cycles, yet its impact on grasslands remains underexplored. Our study investigates how cyclone Biparjoy influenced deposition in the Banni grassland, revealing how dust from the MENA and the Thar Desert contributes ecosystem nutrient dynamics.
Employing biodiversity to reduce pesticide risk
Biodiversity (eg., crop diversification, crop-domestic animal co-culture, and crop-edible fungus co-culture) has been proved to be a useful way to suppress pests and therefore to reduce pesticide risk in farming.
