Local governments urged to boost remote sensing capabilities
Beijing (XNA) Aug 17, 2023
A senior environmental expert has called on local governments along the Yangtze River to improve their remote sensing-based aquatic ecological monitoring capabilities, as China plans to introduce an environmental evaluation and assessment mechanism that no longer focuses on pollution control in the basin of Asia's longest watercourse.
Based on pilot programs this year and the next, the nat

Study explains how part of the nucleolus evolved
Boston MA (SPX) Aug 22, 2023
Inside all living cells, loosely formed assemblies known as biomolecular condensates perform many critical functions. However, it is not well understood how proteins and other biomolecules come together to form these assemblies within cells.
MIT biologists have now discovered that a single scaffolding protein is responsible for the formation of one of these condensates, which forms within

Penetrating radar aboard the Chang'E-4 rover reveals layers of the moon's history
A team of space scientists at the Planetary Science Institute, working with colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shenzhen University and the University of Aberdeen, has used data from China's Chang'E-4 rover to learn more about the history of the moon. In their study, reported in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, the group analyzed lunar-penetrating radar (LPR) data sent back from the rover.
China's Chang'E-4 rover has been wandering around on the far side of the moon since 2018. And during its meanderings, it has been sending radio signals downward using its LPR device.
