National Science Review
The formation of a strong coordination structure, [Zn(H2O)6]2+ often increases direct contact between the solvated H2O and Zn anodes on the inner Helmholtz layer, which exacerbates undesirable side reactions and dendrite growth, hindering the practical application of aqueous Zn metal batteries. Here, we identify that the solvated H2O can be effectively minimized by an artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) consisting of highly nitrogen-doped amorphous carbon (NC) and perfluorosulfonic acid polymer (Nafion). Theoretical and experimental analyses reveal that NC raises the Fermi level of the composite SEI and activates the non-coordinating charge transfer from the SEI to [Zn(H2O)6]2+, which leads to ultrafast desolvation of hydrated Zn-ions in the outer Helmholtz layer; while the Nafion framework ensures selective transport channels for Zn ions. Remarkably, the derived NC-Nafion@Zn symmetric cell exhibits a long lifespan (3400 h, 1 mA cm–2; 2000 h, 5 mA cm–2); moreover, the NC-Nafion@Zn//Mn4O3-carbon nanotubes full battery delivers ultralong cycling stability of 9300 cycles at 2 A g–1 with a high retention of 91.3%.

The Late Ordovician mass extinction (LOME, ca. 445 Ma), which occurred over two extinction intervals (LOMEI-1 and LOMEI-2), was the first “Big Five” biotic crises of the Phanerozoic. The ultimate trigger of this extinction remains debated, with glacially induced global cooling and volcanism-driven warming events separately suggested as the underlying cause. Here, we report anomalously high mercury (Hg) levels in two Ordovician-Silurian successions from a shelf-to-slope transect in South China, indicating abnormally high Hg loading to the ocean. Analyses of Hg isotopes through the successions reveal near-zero Δ¹⁹⁹Hg from the late Katian to the earliest Hirnantian (LOMEI-1), suggesting that Hg was mainly derived from large-scale volcanism. Positive shifts in Δ¹⁹⁹Hg are observed during the Hirnantian stage, coincident with global glaciation, suggesting enhanced Hg sequestration to sediments driven by subsidence of cold and dense surface seawater. Negative shifts in Δ¹⁹⁹Hg values across the LOMEI-2 within the Hirnantian likely suggest enhanced terrestrial Hg and sulfate fluxes to the ocean due to volcanism-induced global warming, which promoted oceanic anoxic/euxinic conditions. This study provides novel evidences linking intensive volcanism to significant changes in the atmosphere-land-ocean system across the Ordovician-Silurian transition, particularly to the euxinic ocean conditions that triggered the LOME.

Developing a robust zinc (Zn) anode, free from Zn dendrites and unwanted side reactions, relies on designing a durable and efficient interfacial protection layer. In this study, gradient coating technology is employed to construct a hierarchically structured composite of Sn with diamond‐like carbon (DLC/Sn‐DLC) as an artificial protective layer. The DLC framework endows DLC/Sn‐DLC layer with high stability and adaptability, achieving long‐term stability of the anode–electrolyte interface. The gradual‐composite Sn, with its Sn─O─C interface chemical bonds, facilitates rapid charge transfer and offers ample zincophilic sites at the base, promoting uniform Zn²⁺ reduction reaction and deposition. Additionally, the DLC/Sn‐DLC composite exhibits a “lotus effect” and favorable hydrophobic properties, preventing water‐reduced side reactions. Leveraging this structural design and the synergistic cooperation of DLC and Sn, the DLC/Sn‐DLC@Zn electrode demonstrates remarkable Zn plating/stripping reversibility, eliminating Zn dendrites and side reactions. Notably, under a high current density of 10 mA cm⁻², the DLC/Sn‐DLC@Zn anode‐based symmetrical cell exhibits stable operation for over 1550 h, with a low nucleation overpotential of 101 mV. The DLC/Sn‐DLC@Zn||Mn3O4‐CNTs full battery delivers a high capacity of 109.8 mAh cm⁻² after 5800 cycles at 2 A g⁻¹, and the pouch cell shows potential for energy storage applications.

... Global warming, driven by rising emissions and the accumulation of greenhouse gases, has emerged as one of the most critical consequences of climate change [1][2][3]. Policymakers have recognized that assessing the environmental impact of organizations is essential for identifying and implementing strategies that reduce these effects [4,5]. Consequently, businesses are under increasing pressure to lower their emissions and contribute to the global effort to combat this environmental crisis [6]. ...

... Shale systems of three types-marine, marine-continental transitional, and continental-are widely distributed in sedimentary basins across China, including the Sichuan, Ordos, and Tarim Basins [1,2]. Currently, shale gas exploration and development in China are primarily focused on marine shale systems [3][4][5][6][7], while marine-continental transitional shale systems have become a new area of shale gas exploration and development in recent years [8][9][10][11]. With the deepening of unconventional gas exploration in the Sichuan Basin [4,12,13], multiple marine shale systems have achieved effective shale gas development. ...

... Increasing energy demands are driving a heavier dependence on fossil fuels, leading to higher pollution and hastening climate change [1][2][3][4]. Silicon-based photovoltaic cells could be a viable solution to the energy scarcity [5][6][7]. However, they face several challenges because their power conversion efficiency is relatively low and the manufacturing process is complicated. ...

... This leaked hydrogen can coexist with the surrounding rock for extended periods. Influenced by factors such as humidity, pressure, and temperature, it may chemically react with the mineral composition of the surrounding rock, including substances like illite and calcite [21][22][23]. However, this reaction is slow, making it difficult to monitor with current testing methods, and its potential impacts still need to be verified [24]. ...

... During the early stage, the formation is water-saturated with favorable porosity and permeability (Begum et al., 2019;Gholinezhadateni and Rostami, 2021), also facilitating the migration and accumulation of early-generated molecules with long side chains and low aromaticity. After noise elimination and intensity normalization of the non-hydrocarbon data, compositional similarities among samples can be quantified using cosine distance (Yuan et al., 2024). Taking interlayer siltstones as benchmarks, the shales with high compositional similarities indicate "sweet spots", since they might have undergone similar compositional fractionation. ...

... Under such complicated terrain conditions, the drilling and fracturing of shale gas wells are more difficult, the infrastructure construction is weak, and insufficient transport capacity leads to failure in realizing a high yield in some shale gas-producing areas [55,56]. Additionally, a large amount of water is consumed in the fracturing process of shale gas, and the single-well water consumption of shale gas in China is relatively high, equaling 2.5~5 × 10 4 m 3 [58][59][60]. The large-scale exploitation of shale gas will directly affect the water consumption of residents. ...
