Study region: This study focuses on mainland China, covering eight subregions. Study focus: Dry-to-wet abrupt alternation (DWAA) events have become increasingly frequent worldwide, causing significant socioeconomic and environmental impacts. Current DWAA research overemphasizes monthly precipitation...

Despite increasing research on Copula-based conventional seasonal drought indices, studies on multivariate flash drought identification remain limited. This study employed three variables—the difference between precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (P–PET), soil moisture (SM), and runoff (R...

Adding fibres can help increase the performance of the binder and, thus, the mechanical performance of the pervious concrete. However, their performance under various curing conditions is questionable. This study investigates the mechanical performance and microstructure evolution of fibre-reinforce...

Quantitative assessment of development sustainability could be a challenge to regional management and planning, especially for areas facing great risks of water shortage. Surface-water decline and groundwater over-pumping have caused serious environmental problems and limited economic development in...

We propose a hybrid computational near-eye light field display based on micro-lens arrays (MLAs) and structure parameters prioritization method (SPPM) that can render correct accommodation and expand the depth of field (DOF). The proposed display consists of two MLAs and two micro-displays. Two sets...

Understanding the interactions between water security, carbon storage, and economic and social development (WCE) is critical for achieving sustainable urbanization. This study establishes a coupled WCE system model for Wuhan, China, by integrating System Dynamics (SD) and the Integrated Valuation of...

Recently, “Zhuji black plum” has been infected with the disease of leaf shot hole. There appears symptoms on leaves, branches and fruits. We had separated and identified the pathogen. It turned out that the pathogen of the leaf shot hole of “Zhuji black plum” was Xanthomomonas campestris pv prunis a...

By combining advanced fluid control technology with surface plasmonic resonance phenomenon, we could take advantage of various unique characteristics of plasmonics without changing the original structure to realize a tunable color filtering system. By modifying the wetting properties of solid surfac...

Cold stress responses help insects to survive under low temperatures that would be lethal otherwise. This phenomenon might contribute to the invasion of some Bemisia tabaci cryptic species from subtropical areas to temperate regions. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating cold stress responses...

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) sensing has emerged as a promising technology for non-contact health monitoring, offering high spatial resolution, material sensitivity, and integration potential with wireless platforms. While prior work has focused on specific applications or signal processing methods, a u...

Surfactants are critical in the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) process due to their ability to reduce oil–water interfacial tension (IFT), thereby improving EOR efficiency. While betaine surfactants have emerged as promising candidates for achieving ultralow IFT values (∼10−3 mN/m), their standalone pe...

Background and purpose: Accurate evaluation of response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in rectal cancer is critical for guiding clinical decision-making. This study developed and validated a large model-assisted automated prediction tool to assess response to nCRT in locally advanced rectal...

indica and japonica are the two most important subspecies of Asian cultivated rice. Identifying mechanisms responsible for population differentiation in these subspecies is important for indica-japonica hybridization breeding. In this study, subspecies and economic trait differentiation patterns wer...

ObjectiveQT interval irregularities correlate with severe arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. However, epidemiological data on QT intervals in Chinese adults are lacking. This study aimed to elucidate the distribution of the QT interval (QTc) patterns in Chinese adults and the risk factors associa...

Flowering time and branching type are important agronomic traits related to the adaptability and yield of soybean. Molecular bases for major flowering time or maturity loci, E1 to E4, have been identified. However, more flowering time genes in cultivars with different genetic backgrounds are needed...
