Spectrally selective emitters (SSEs) have attracted considerable attention, because of radiative cooling, which could dissipate the heat from earth to outer space through the atmospheric window without any energy input. Intrinsically inorganic SSEs have significant advantages to other SSEs, such as...

Abstract Global warming caused by carbon emissions significantly threatens ecosystems and sustainable development. Adopting new measures is essential to realize the low-carbon transition. Digital governance provides fresh impetus for climate change mitigation and carbon neutrality. Although several...

The application of fertilizer in agricultural production has become universally common for achieving high crop yields and economic benefits, but it has potential impacts on food safety, energy crisis and environmental pollution. Optimal management of fertilization is thus necessary for maintaining s...

The integration of high proportions of renewable energy into power systems to replace traditional synchronous generators has led to continuous weakening of the system inertia support and primary frequency regulation resources. Spatiotemporal dispersion of the system’s frequency response has become i...

Calcium sulfoaluminate-based expansive agents (EAs) can effectively reduce shrinkage in concrete. However, conventional EA production consumes substantial quantities of non-renewable resources, which is costly and not sustainable. This study explores the feasibility of producing cost-effective calci...

The displacement of a concrete gravity dam is a direct manifestation of its deformation. It provides an intuitive reflection of the dam’s overall operational behavior and serves as a key indicator of the dam’s safe operating condition. In this paper, we propose a factor set that considers the hyster...

This paper focused on the intergenerational transmission of poverty in rural China by estimating the intergenerational transmission of earnings and stated its mechanism from the perspective of human capital investment before children participated in the labor market. The data used in this study were...

One of the primary drawbacks of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is the large peak-to-average ratio (PAPR). It continues to contribute nonlinear degradations after it was introduced into optical fiber transmissions. However, phase-modulated OFDM can reduce the PAPR to the minimum, s...

During winter wheat production, aphids need to be controlled with pesticides for the entire growth period. Controlled-release technology has been regarded as an alternative method for the improvement of pesticide efficiency. This study investigated two types of imidacloprid controlled-release granul...

Background: Automatic segmentation of liver regions as well as liver lesions such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from computed tomography (CT) images is critical for accurate diagnosis and therapy planning. With the advent of deep learning techniques such as transformers, computer-aided diagnosti...

In this study, the effects of enzymolysis on physicochemical properties, digestive characteristics, and flora regulation of the meal replacement powder (MRP) were investigated on the basis of the previously obtained compound MRP. The results showed that the color, water absorption index, and water s...

In the context of global warming, polar tourism is developing rapidly, and the demand for polar cruise travel in the Northwest Passage continues to increase, while sea ice has long been a key factor limiting the development of polar cruise tourism. This study focuses on the operational risk of sea i...

At present, sea ice remains a critical factor affecting the safety of vessel operations along the Northern Sea Route (NSR). However, inconsistencies between the navigability outcomes derived from the criteria for the admission of ships in the area of the Northern Sea Route (NSR criteria) and the pol...

In recent years, inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have garnered widespread attention due to their high compatibility, excellent stability, and potential for low-temperature manufacturing. However, most of the current research has primarily focused on the surface passivation of perovskite. In c...

The development of the cotton fiber is very sensitive to temperature variation, and high temperature stress often causes reduced fiber yield and fiber quality. Short-term high temperature stress often occurs during cotton production, but little is known about the specific timing and duration of stre...

Xanthomonas oryzea pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the causal agent of bacterial blight of rice, which is a significant threat to many of rice-growing regions. The type III secretion system (T3SS) is an essential virulence factor in Xoo. Expression of the T3SS is often induced in the host environment or in hrp-...
