South America is undergoing an unprecedented drought crisis, threatening water security, ecosystem integrity and socioeconomic stability. While individual extreme drought events are well documented, the temporal evolution and mechanistic drivers of long‐term drought intensification remain poorly understood. Here, we employ the Running Slope Difference (RSD)– t ‐test method to analyse Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) and soil moisture data, revealing two critical regime shifts in Central South America (CSA) drought patterns since 1958. We identify an abrupt transition from wet to dry conditions circa 1978, followed by a pronounced acceleration in drought severity post‐2012. Random Forest attribution analysis demonstrates that these regime shifts stem from distinct driving mechanisms. The 1978 transition primarily reflects precipitation deficits linked to large‐scale atmospheric circulation changes, including enhanced subsidence and tropospheric warming that suppress convective activity. In contrast, the post‐2012 acceleration is predominantly driven by elevated vapour pressure deficit (VPD), triggered by land surface feedbacks. Specifically, progressive vegetation loss reduces evapotranspiration, creating a positive feedback loop where decreased atmospheric moisture enhances VPD, accelerates soil moisture depletion and amplifies vegetation stress. This identification of temporally distinct drought intensification mechanisms provides crucial insights for regional climate adaptation strategies. Our findings suggest that while the 1978 regime shift reflected primarily atmospheric forcing, recent drought acceleration is increasingly modulated by land‐atmosphere feedbacks—highlighting the critical role of vegetation conservation in future drought resilience.

Long‐lived subsurface anticyclonic eddy enhances microbial diversity and vertical niche partitioning - Ying Wang; Zhaomin Han; Lei Wang; Peng Cheng; Dapeng Xu; Bangqin Huang; Ping Sun (Limnology and Oceanography, 2026)
Subsurface anticyclonic eddies (SAEs) reshape ocean stratification and nutrient–light regimes, yet their microbial and biogeochemical impacts remain poorly resolved. We combined CTD‐ADCP hydrography, nutrient profiles, microscopy and flow‐cytometry, and 18S/16S rRNA transcript sequencing to examine a long‐lived SAE in the northern South China Sea. The lens‐shaped eddy featured a strong velocity core (maximum 0.46 m s −1 at 90 m) and a deepened euphotic zone from exterior reference to edge to center (107.9 → 117.9 → 124.5 m). Depth‐integrated chlorophyll‐ a (25–150 m) was higher inside the eddy (19.7 mg m −2 ) than at reference waters (18.2 mg m −2 ), peaking at the center (20.8 mg m −2 ), indicating subsurface intensification of autotrophic biomass. Alpha‐diversity enhanced within the eddy, especially at its edge, while vertical turnover of protistan and bacterial assemblages exceeded center–edge differences, contrasting with surface‐intensifying anticyclonic eddies that often homogenize communities. Distance‐based redundancy analyses identified water mass, nutrient, viral, bacterial, and nanoflagellate gradients as key correlates of community structure, reflecting light‐nutrient colimitation modulated by top‐down control. Ecotype‐resolved patterns supported this framework that high‐light Ostreococcus tauri declined, whereas low‐light Prochlorococcus MIT9313 was ~ 5‐fold enriched just above the core and toward the center. Protist–bacteria co‐occurrence network formed depth‐ and edge‐specific modules and hub taxa included protist Stramenopiles, free‐living Alphaproteobacteria and particle‐associated Deltaproteobacteria. Collectively, the deepened euphotic zone and elevated subsurface chlorophyll‐ a , together with spatially structured community assembly, demonstrate that the eddy functions as a localized biogeochemical reactor enhancing subsurface productivity and microbial recycling in oligotrophic waters—linking eddy physics to ecosystem function.

Deep learning for mangrove change prediction: Gaoqiao Mangrove, China - Jiajun Yuan; Yongze Li; Zhaohui Cheng; Xiong Sun; Dazhao Liu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2026)
Mangrove forests in southern China’s Gaoqiao Mangrove National Nature Reserve (Guangdong–Guangxi border) have undergone significant decline followed by partial recovery, driven by human activities and conservation efforts. Traditional monitoring methods struggle to capture their complex spatiotemporal dynamics. This study develops a practical two-stage deep learning framework: an enhanced U-Net with Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) and Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) first extracts high-quality annual mangrove masks from multi-temporal Landsat imagery (1993–2023), achieving IoU = 0.815 and F1-score = 0.928. These masks are then used for spatiotemporal forecasting, with U-Net–ConvLSTM recommended as the primary architecture due to its excellent balance of accuracy, simplicity, and computational efficiency. An optional asymmetric Ecological Constraint Loss (ECOLOSS) can be added to form the ConvLSTM+ECOLOSS variant, providing marginal additional accuracy (IoU = 0.793 vs. 0.787, MAE = 6.70% vs. 6.83%) on the test period (2019–2023) by acting mainly as an ecological safeguard against unrealistic long-term runaway trends. Forecasts for 2024–2026 indicate continued slow recovery under current management. The U-Net–ConvLSTM pipeline offers a transparent and efficient tool for operational mangrove monitoring and conservation planning in subtropical China.

Design of Monitoring System for River Crab Feeding Platform Based on Machine Vision - Yueping Sun; Ziqiang Li; Zewei Yang; Bikang Yuan; De’an Zhao; Ni Ren; Yawen Cheng (Fishes, 2026)
Bait costs constitute 40–50% of the total expenditure in river crab aquaculture, highlighting the critical need for accurately assessing crab growth and scientifically determining optimal feeding regimes across different farming stages. Current traditional methods rely on periodic manual sampling to monitor growth status and artificial feeding platforms to observe consumption and adjust bait input. These approaches are inefficient, disruptive to crab growth, and fail to provide comprehensive growth data. Therefore, this study proposes a machine vision-based monitoring system for river crab feeding platforms. Firstly, the Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) algorithm is applied to enhance underwater images of river crabs. Subsequently, an improved YOLOv11 (You Only Look Once) model is introduced and applied for multi-target detection and counting in crab ponds, enabling the extraction of information related to both river crabs and bait. Concurrently, underwater environmental parameters are monitored in real-time via an integrated environmental information sensing system. Finally, an information processing platform is established to facilitate data sharing under a “detection–processing–distribution” workflow. The real crab farm experimental results show that the river crab quality error rate was below 9.57%, while the detection rates for both corn and pellet baits consistently exceeded 90% across varying conditions. These results indicate that the proposed system significantly enhances farming efficiency, elevates the level of automation, and provides technological support for the river crab aquaculture industry.

Carbon tax, renewable portfolio Standards, or both? Evaluating policy effectiveness in promoting renewable energy and reducing emissions - Dandan Wu; Hao Ding; Yang Cheng; Hongyan Jenny Li; Wei Wang; Qi Sun (Environment, Development and Sustainability, 2026)
The transition to a low-carbon economy is a critical global challenge. However, the relative effectiveness of renewable portfolio standards (RPS) and carbon tax policies, particularly their potential synergistic effects, remains insufficiently understood. Clarifying this relationship is essential for designing effective policies that enhance renewable energy investment and reduce carbon emissions. We develop an optimization framework in which a monopolistic electricity supplier in China invests in a hybrid energy system of conventional and renewable power. We compare profit-maximizing strategies under four policy scenarios: no policy, a carbon tax, an RPS, and a mixed policy (carbon tax + RPS). The analysis examines how these policies shape production and pricing decisions, investment, emissions, consumer surplus, and social welfare. Three main findings emerge. First, both carbon tax and RPS policies significantly encourage renewable energy investment and reduce carbon emissions. Second, mixed policies consistently outperform single policies, demonstrating the highest potential for renewable energy development and carbon emission reduction. Third, social welfare effects under mixed policies vary depending on the carbon tax and renewable energy quota level, with the highest social welfare achieved under low and medium quotas. Importantly, renewable intermittency does not alter the relative ranking of policies, though consumer environmental awareness shifts investment thresholds. Based on these findings, three recommendations emerge: integrating carbon tax with RPS accelerates renewable deployment, phased emission reduction balances neutrality targets with electricity demand, and incentives linking green electricity with consumer awareness strengthen adoption. These results provide actionable policy guidance for China and offer broader insights for economies pursuing a sustainable low-carbon transition.

Background/aims Ocular anterior segment diseases are major causes of global visual impairment. Early and accurate detection of anterior segment abnormalities is essential to support predictive diagnostics, targeted prevention, and individualized treatments management. Conventional slit-lamp assessments are often limited by human observation and inter-clinician variability, restricting their ability to achieve rapid and large-scale disease screening. To advance anterior segment care within the predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM) framework, this study aimed to develop a comprehensive and validated semi-supervised object detection (SSOD) system for slit-lamp imaging–based screening of multiple anterior segment diseases. Methods A total of 7230 slit-lamp images from 3302 patients were retrospectively collected at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University between November 2016 and July 2024. The proposed SSOD integrated a Category Control Embed (CCE) module to mitigate class imbalance and an Out-of-distribution Detection Fusion Classifier (ODDFC) to identify previously unseen lesions. Model performance was quantitatively compared with YOLOv8 and ophthalmologists using quantitative metrics (average precision [AP], recall) and clinical assessments of diagnostic accuracy, lesion comprehensiveness, and localization precision. Results The SSOD achieved mAP comparable to YOLOv8 (0.729 vs. 0.725 for single-lesion; 0.538 vs. 0.543 for multi-lesion), but demonstrated substantially higher recall (0.893 vs. 0.656 for single-lesion; 0.679 vs. 0.477 for multi-lesion). In clinical evaluations, SSOD scored 2.430/3 for single-lesion and 1.942/3 for multi-lesion detection, outperforming YOLOv8 and approaching the performance of junior ophthalmologists in multi-lesion cases. Conclusion The SSOD framework offers an efficient and scalable solution for anterior segment disease screening, delivering reliable multi-lesion detection with minimal annotation. It supports early recognition of anterior segment lesions, guides targeted interventions to prevent irreversible vision loss, and facilitates patient-centered, individualized management that advances ophthalmic care from reactive assessment to proactive precision treatment, aligning with the principles of 3PM.
