Non-technical summary
We identify a set of essential recent advances in climate change research with high policy relevance, across natural and social sciences: (1) looming inevitability and implications of overshooting the 1.5°C warming limit, (2) urgent need for a rapid and managed fossil fuel phase-out, (3) challenges for scaling carbon dioxide removal, (4) uncertainties regarding the future contribution of natural carbon sinks, (5) intertwinedness of the crises of biodiversity loss and climate change, (6) compound events, (7) mountain glacier loss, (8) human immobility in the face of climate risks, (9) adaptation justice, and (10) just transitions in food systems.
Technical summaryThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Assessment Reports provides the scientific foundation for international climate negotiations and constitutes an unmatched resource for researchers. However, the assessment cycles take multiple years. As a contribution to cross- and interdisciplinary understanding of climate change across diverse research communities, we have streamlined an annual process to identify and synthesize significant research advances. We collected input from experts on various fields using an online questionnaire and prioritized a set of 10 key research insights with high policy relevance. This year, we focus on: (1) the looming overshoot of the 1.5°C warming limit, (2) the urgency of fossil fuel phase-out, (3) challenges to scale-up carbon dioxide removal, (4) uncertainties regarding future natural carbon sinks, (5) the need for joint governance of biodiversity loss and climate change, (6) advances in understanding compound events, (7) accelerated mountain glacier loss, (8) human immobility amidst climate risks, (9) adaptation justice, and (10) just transitions in food systems. We present a succinct account of these insights, reflect on their policy implications, and offer an integrated set of policy-relevant messages. This science synthesis and science communication effort is also the basis for a policy report contributing to elevate climate science every year in time for the United Nations Climate Change Conference.
Social media summaryWe highlight recent and policy-relevant advances in climate change research – with input from more than 200 experts.

Non-technical summary
We summarize what we assess as the past year's most important findings within climate change research: limits to adaptation, vulnerability hotspots, new threats coming from the climate–health nexus, climate (im)mobility and security, sustainable practices for land use and finance, losses and damages, inclusive societal climate decisions and ways to overcome structural barriers to accelerate mitigation and limit global warming to below 2°C.
Technical summaryWe synthesize 10 topics within climate research where there have been significant advances or emerging scientific consensus since January 2021. The selection of these insights was based on input from an international open call with broad disciplinary scope. Findings concern: (1) new aspects of soft and hard limits to adaptation; (2) the emergence of regional vulnerability hotspots from climate impacts and human vulnerability; (3) new threats on the climate–health horizon – some involving plants and animals; (4) climate (im)mobility and the need for anticipatory action; (5) security and climate; (6) sustainable land management as a prerequisite to land-based solutions; (7) sustainable finance practices in the private sector and the need for political guidance; (8) the urgent planetary imperative for addressing losses and damages; (9) inclusive societal choices for climate-resilient development and (10) how to overcome barriers to accelerate mitigation and limit global warming to below 2°C.
Social media summaryScience has evidence on barriers to mitigation and how to overcome them to avoid limits to adaptation across multiple fields.

Summary
Two works against the Council of Chalcedon are attributed to Timothy Aelurus. The first survives fully in Armenian and as a synopsis in a Syriac epitome; its title in Armenian is very long, so today scholars call it Against the Dyophysites or On the Unity of Christ. Timothy includes over three hundred quotations not only from authors whose views he opposed but also from works cited in support of his understanding of Christology. He also refutes the Definition of Faith promulgated by the Council of Chalcedon and Leo of Rome’s Tome to Flavian of Constantinople in this work, which was endorsed by the Definition. The second work survives in a single Syriac manuscript, which dates to before 562. It consists of four parts: (1) a section-by-section refutation of the Chalcedonian Definition, (2) a section-by-section refutation of the Tome of Leo, (3) a florilegium of quotations from the acts of Ephesus II chosen to demonstrate the bishops’ stunning change of mind at Chalcedon, and (4) a eulogy for Dioscorus of Alexandria along with an exhortation to persevere in the faith.

Non-technical summary
We summarize some of the past year's most important findings within climate change-related research. New research has improved our understanding about the remaining options to achieve the Paris Agreement goals, through overcoming political barriers to carbon pricing, taking into account non-CO2 factors, a well-designed implementation of demand-side and nature-based solutions, resilience building of ecosystems and the recognition that climate change mitigation costs can be justified by benefits to the health of humans and nature alone. We consider new insights about what to expect if we fail to include a new dimension of fire extremes and the prospect of cascading climate tipping elements.
Technical summaryA synthesis is made of 10 topics within climate research, where there have been significant advances since January 2020. The insights are based on input from an international open call with broad disciplinary scope. Findings include: (1) the options to still keep global warming below 1.5 °C; (2) the impact of non-CO2 factors in global warming; (3) a new dimension of fire extremes forced by climate change; (4) the increasing pressure on interconnected climate tipping elements; (5) the dimensions of climate justice; (6) political challenges impeding the effectiveness of carbon pricing; (7) demand-side solutions as vehicles of climate mitigation; (8) the potentials and caveats of nature-based solutions; (9) how building resilience of marine ecosystems is possible; and (10) that the costs of climate change mitigation policies can be more than justified by the benefits to the health of humans and nature.

We investigated the relationship between environmental temperature and reported Salmonella infections in 10 European populations. Poisson regression adapted for time-series data was used to estimate the percentage change in the number of cases associated with a 1 °C increase in average temperature above an identified threshold value. We found, on average, a linear association between temperature and the number of reported cases of salmonellosis above a threshold of 6 °C. The relationships were very similar in The Netherlands, England and Wales, Switzerland, Spain and the Czech Republic. The greatest effect was apparent for temperature 1 week before the onset of illness. The strongest associations were observed in adults in the 15–64 years age group and infection with Salmonella Enteritidis (a serotype of Salmonella). Our findings indicate that higher temperatures around the time of consumption are important and reinforce the need for further education on food-handling behaviour.

Physical properties and structural parameters have been measured for ropes of nylon 6 as a function of the number of use operations. The fractional content of the α crystal form, sound velocity, birefringence, tensile strength and length all increase systematically and significantly with increasing the number of use operations. The fractional content of the γ crystal form and fiber diameter decrease with use. These trends indicate that the measurement of such properties and structural parameters, especially the length, provide a possible basis for establishing a reliable, rapid, and convenient nondestructive characterization method to predict the remaining service life of nylon 6 ropes.

A normal coordinate approach was used to generate ciystallographic packing candidates of a multitorsional polyimide synthesized from 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid (BTDA) and 2,2-dimethyl-l,3-(4-aminophenoxy)propane (DMDA) (PI-2). Candidates were obtained under conditions of fixed axial advance of 24.6 Å per monomer, and imposed 2/1 helical or 1/0 transiational symmetry, consistent with the observed WAXD meridional layer line spacing [1]. The ability of comb in atori ally generated torsional states to adopt the desired geometry was examined. Necessary corrections to die conformational parameter equations originally derived by Kusanagi, et al. [2|, have been made. The procedure described allowed crystallographic conformations satisfying explicit geometric and MM3 intramolecular energy criteria to be generated for a linear multitorsional polyimide prior to the application of crystallographic screening or refinement procedures.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), tensiometric wetting, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to investigate the surfaces of PAN based carbon fibers. Percent weighted dipole moments (%WDM) were computed from the deconvoluted core level carbon XPS peaks. Tensiometric wetting separated the polar and dispersive components of the fiber surface energies thus allowing the computation of % polar energies. AFM provided quantitative measurements of the fiber surface rugosities. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed adhesive interfacial fractures for PMR-15 (polyimide) composites of fibers with low %WDM and % polar energies; cohesive fractures for those with high %WDM and % polar energies. Increasing interlaminar shear strengths correlated with increasing %WDM and % polar energies. The fibers with higher %WDM also had rougher surfaces which probably expose more graphite basal plane dipole sites in addition to providing mechanical interlocking.

The temperature dependence of amorphization dose for zircon under 1.5 MeV Kr ion irradiation has been investigated using the HVEM-Tandem Facility at Argonne National Laboratory. Three regimes were observed in the amorphization dose-temperature curve. In the first regime (15 to 300 K), the critical amorphization dose increased from 3.06 to 4.5 ions/nm2. In the second regime (300 to 473 K), there is little change in the amorphization dose. In the third regime (> 473 K), the amorphization dose increased exponentially to 8.3 ions/nm2 at 913 K. This temperature dependence of amorphization dose can be described by two processes with different activation energies (0.018 and 0.31 eV respectively) which are attributed to close pair recombination in the cascades at low temperatures and radiation-enhanced epitaxial recrystallization at higher temperatures. The upper temperature limit for amorphization of zircon is estimated to be 1100 K. The ion-mass dependence of the amorphization dose (in dpa) has also been discussed in terms of the energy to recoils based on data obtained from He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe irradiations and a 238Pu-doped sample.

“Tracks” of alpha-recoil nuclei have been observed directly in titanite (CaTiSiO5). Recoil tracks in titanite are 4 to 6 nm in diameter and consist of a central aperiodic zone surrounded by a narrow (0–2 nm) outer zone that is essentially crystalline, but which exhibits modulated image contrast due to interstitial defects. Previous work has suggested that titanite is 2 to 3 times more sensitive to alpha-decay damage than other ceramic phases (e.g., zircon, ZrSiO4). We find, however, that track diameters in titanite are essentially the same as reported for other phases, including zircon (ZrSiO4), pyrochlore (NaCaTa2O6F), and zirconolite (CaZrTi2O7). An annealing study of titanite (300 to 700 °C, N2) shows a two-stage recovery process. Track diameter decreases at 400 °C. An intermediate phase develops at 500 °C, and nearly all tracks are epitaxially recrystallized. At 700 °C, all tracks and the intermediate phase are gone.

Rigid rod polymers are of potential use in fibers for composites because of their high specific tensile strength and modulus as well as their high thermal stability. Some other common properties of systems meeting these criteria are a nonlinear elasticity (increasing Young's modulus with increasing tensile stress) and a negative coefficient of thermal expansion along the fiber axis. In composites, these two properties can combine to cause an increase of Young's modulus with increasing temperature and can lead to yielding or interfacial failure. The source of the nonlinear elasticity resides at two length scales: 1) the scale of the crystallites, (the reversible realignment of the crystallites along the fiber axis with increasing stress), and 2) at the scale of the molecules, (an inherent nonlinear elasticity of the molecules themselves). The former effect is reviewed and computational results for the latter are presented along with computational results for the molecular origin of the negative coefficient of thermal expansion.

Single crystals of the silicate neptunite were irradiated with 600 keV Ar2+ and 1.5 MeV Kr+ and analysed by transmission electron microscopy. Amorphization was observed in a surface layer several hundred angstroms thick following Ar2+ irradiations up to 5.0×l013 Ar/cm2, yet the Ar2+ ions travelled an average of 1/2 μm in depth. The microstructure of the amorphous surface layer depends on the ion fluence, but the amorphous layer thickness remained constant. At the highest fluence, a narrow region below the amorphous layer shows a brittle-to-ductile strain transition, due to tensional volume-expansion of the adjacent ductile amorphous layer. With 1.5 MeV Kr1+, amorphization of the electron transparent region was completed after a fluence of 1.7×l014 Kr+/cm2, and no further damage was observed up to 5.1×1015 Kr+/cm2. However, following a low fluence of 2.0×1011 Kr+/cm2, a single crystal of neptunite became a polycrystalline aggregate (grain size 10 nm) within 7 days of room temperature aging.

Since the pioneering work of Carothers which led to the introduction of strong nylon fibers by DuPont in the 1930s, polymer scientists have pursued the development of high-performance fibers to replace natural or metallic products, both to improve mechanical properties and to reduce weight. That development was relatively slow and evenly paced until DuPont again revolutionized the field with the release of Kevlar™, an aromatic polyamide with unprecedented mechanical properties. Since then, the field has literally boomed with new developments, and now organic fibers are available with properties that compete with the best inorganics and are far superior to metal fibers.
Strong motivation for the invention of new organic fibers comes from the aerospace industry, which seeks fibers to use in reinforced composite structural materials. Composites bring new advances in stiffness (airplane wings can't bend too much!) in weight savings (every kilogram saved in the structure of an airplane saves $120 over its lifetime, and in a spacecraft $10,000), and in radically new ideas, such as radar-invisibility (stealth)5 and mission-adaptive wings (in-flight variable-shape wings). Hence, for a variety of specialty applications, otherwise commercially indefensible materials become viable.
It may be somewhat counter intuitive to materials scientists unfamiliar with polymers to expect polymer mechanical properties to be greater than in the best metals. The origin of high strength and stiffness in a polymer fiber is the covalent bond, especially when aligned in an ordered array of long chain molecules.
