- Urbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6169 populations in 160 cities globally. Plants were assayed for a Mendelian antiherbivore defense that also affects tolerance to abiotic stressors. Urban-rural gradients were associated with the evolution of clines in defense in 47% of cities throughout the world. Variation in the strength of clines was explained by environmental changes in drought stress and vegetation cover that varied among cities. Sequencing 2074 genomes from 26 cities revealed that the evolution of urban-rural dines was best explained by adaptive evolution, but the degree of parallel adaptation varied among cities. Our results demonstrate that urbanization leads to adaptation at a global scale.

- The Suoerkuduke Cu-Mo ore is a medium-sized skarn deposit in the East Junggar orogen of the southern Altaids, Xinjiang, Northwest China. We measured Re-Os isotopes of a molybdenite veinlet from the main ore body, of which eight yielded model ages ranging from 303 +/- 5 to 317 +/- 5 Ma with a well-constrained Re-187-Os-187 isochron age of 305 +/- 7 Ma, a MSWD of 4.9 and a weighted average model age of 310 +/- 4 Ma with a MSWD of 4.2. The Re-187-Os-187 isochron age is consistent with the weighted mean model age, within error, and indicates that the time of Cu-Mo mineralization was at c. 310 Ma in the late Carboniferous. This new age is close to the youngest porphyry-related Cu-Mo metallogenic epoch (c. 311 Ma) in the East Junggar region, and is not, as previously suggested, in the Permian. Considering the implications of this new age, we propose that the Suoerkuduke deposit was part of a large-scale porphyry-skarn system, which formed by the interaction between far-traveled hydrothermal fluids and the calcium-rich volcanic wall rocks.

- In this White Paper we present the potential of the Enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for determining the nature of dense matter; neutron star cores host an extreme density regime which cannot be replicated in a terrestrial laboratory. The tightest statistical constraints on the dense matter equation of state will come from pulse profile modelling of accretion-powered pulsars, burst oscillation sources, and rotation-powered pulsars. Additional constraints will derive from spin measurements, burst spectra, and properties of the accretion flows in the vicinity of the neutron star. Under development by an international Consortium led by the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the eXTP mission is expected to be launched in the mid 2020s.
