This study analyzes the spatial agglomeration of livestock industry at the county level across China from 2000 to 2022 using the localization quotient and Moran's I. An interpretable machine learning approach is employed to test hypotheses concerning the driving mechanisms underlying the spatial distribution of livestock industry. The results show that the agglomeration of China's livestock industry is intensifying, with the agro-pastoral transitional zone(APTZ) emerging as a prominent agglomeration area and distinct agglomeration patterns observed within the zone as well as in its eastern and western regions. Proximity to markets has become an increasingly important determinant of livestock industry agglomeration in China. This market-driven shift has heightened the demand for agricultural feed, prompting the livestock industry to relax its dependence on local natural resource endowments and gradually relocate eastward. Regionally, the agglomeration within the APTZ is shaped by the joint effects of natural and social factors. Natural factors dominate agglomeration dynamics in the western regions of the zone, whereas social factors are more influential in its eastern regions.展开更多

文摘Developing efficient and durable electrocatalysts for acidic oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is pivotal for advancing proton exchange membrane water electrolysis(PEMWEs),yet balancing activity and stability remains a formidable challenge.Herein,we propose a dual-engineering strategy to stabilize Ru-based catalysts by synergizing the oxygen vacancy site-synergized mechanism-lattice oxygen mechanism(OVSM-LOM)with Ru-N bond stabilization.The engineered RuO_(2)@NCC catalyst exhibits exceptional OER performance in 0.5 M H2SO4,achieving an ultralow overpotential of 215 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2) and prolonged stability for over 327 h.The catalyst delivers 300 h of continuous operation at 1 A cm^(-2),with a negligible degradation rate of only 0.067 mV h-1,further demonstrating its potential for practical application.Oxygen vacancies unlock the OVSM-LOM pathway,bypassing the sluggish adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM)and accelerating reaction kinetics,while the Ru-N bonds suppress Ru dissolution by anchoring low-valent Ru centers.Quasi-in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),X-ray absorption spectroscopy(XAS),and isotopic labeling experiments confirm the lattice oxygen participation with *O formation as the rate-determining step.The Ru-N bonds reinforce the structural integrity by stabilizing low-valent Ru centers and inhibiting overoxidation.Theoretical calculations further verify that the synergistic interaction between OVs and Ru-O(N)active sites optimizes the Ru d-band center and stabilizes intermediates,while Ru-N coordination enhances structural integrity.This study establishes a novel paradigm for designing robust acidic OER catalysts through defect and coordination engineering,bridging the gap between activity and stability for sustainable energy technologies.

文摘Gibbons are small,arboreal apes that play a critical role in tropical biodiversity and ecosystem ecology.However,nearly all species of gibbons are threatened by habitat loss,illegal trade,hunting,and other human activities.Long-term poor understanding of their genetics and evolution undermines effective conservation efforts.In this study,we analyse comparative population genomic data of four Nomascus species.Our results reveal strong genetic differentiation and gene flow among Nomascus species.Additionally,we identify genomic features that are potentially related to natural selection linked to vocalization,fructose metabolism,motor balance,and body size,consistent with the unique phenotype and adaptability of gibbons.Inbreeding,coupled with population declines due to climate change and historical human activities,leads to reduced genetic diversity and the accumulation of deleterious variations that likely affect cardiovascular disease and the reproductive potential of gibbons and further reduce their fitness,highlighting the urgent need for effective conservation strategies.

文摘To realize the practical application of anion exchange membrane water electrolysis(AEMWE),it is essential to develop highly active,durable,and cost-effective electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Herein,we report a hollow-structured Ni_(x)Co_(1−x)O/Ni_(3)S_(2)/Co_(9)S_(8)heterostructure synthesized via sequential template-assisted growth,thermal oxidation,and controlled sulfidation process.The abundant bimetallic heterointerfaces not only provide additional active sites but also promote electronic modulation via charge redistribution.Additionally,the porous and hollow architecture enhances active surface area and mass transfer ability,thereby increasing the number of accessible active sites for alkaline OER.As a result,the prepared electrocatalyst achieves low overpotential of 310 mV at 10 mA cm^(−2)and small Tafel slope of 55.94 mV dec^(−1),demonstrating the exceptional electrocatalytic performance for alkaline OER.When integrated as the anode in an AEMWE cell,it delivers outstanding performance with only 1.657 V at 1.0 A cm^(−2)and reaches high current density of 5.0 A cm^(−2)at 1.989 V,surpassing those of commercial RuO_(2).The cell also shows excellent long-term durability over 100 h with minimal degradation.This study highlights the strong potential of rationally engineered oxide/sulfide heterostructures for next-generation alkaline water electrolysis.

文摘Understanding the evolution and mechanisms of livestock industry agglomeration provides valuable policy insights for reconciling growing meat demand with constrained resource endowments. This study analyzes the spatial agglomeration of livestock industry at the county level across China from 2000 to 2022 using the localization quotient and Moran's I. An interpretable machine learning approach is employed to test hypotheses concerning the driving mechanisms underlying the spatial distribution of livestock industry. The results show that the agglomeration of China's livestock industry is intensifying, with the agro-pastoral transitional zone(APTZ) emerging as a prominent agglomeration area and distinct agglomeration patterns observed within the zone as well as in its eastern and western regions. Proximity to markets has become an increasingly important determinant of livestock industry agglomeration in China. This market-driven shift has heightened the demand for agricultural feed, prompting the livestock industry to relax its dependence on local natural resource endowments and gradually relocate eastward. Regionally, the agglomeration within the APTZ is shaped by the joint effects of natural and social factors. Natural factors dominate agglomeration dynamics in the western regions of the zone, whereas social factors are more influential in its eastern regions.

文摘Cloud data sharing is an important issue in modern times.To maintain the privacy and confidentiality of data stored in the cloud,encryption is an inevitable process before uploading the data.However,the centralized management and transmission latency of the cloud makes it difficult to support real-time processing and distributed access structures.As a result,fog computing and the Internet of Things(IoT)have emerged as crucial applications.Fog-assisted proxy re-encryption is a commonly adopted technique for sharing cloud ciphertexts.It allows a semitrusted proxy to transforma data owner’s ciphertext into another re-encrypted ciphertext intended for a data requester,without compromising any information about the original ciphertext.Yet,the user revocation and cloud ciphertext renewal problems still lack effective and secure mechanisms.Motivated by it,we propose a revocable conditional proxy re-encryption scheme offering ciphertext evolution(R-CPRE-CE).In particular,a periodically updated time key is used to revoke the user’s access privileges while an access condition prevents a malicious proxy from reencrypting unauthorized ciphertext.We also demonstrate that our scheme is provably secure under the notion of indistinguishability against adaptively chosen identity and chosen ciphertext attacks in the random oracle model.Performance analysis shows that our scheme reduces the computation time for a complete data access cycle from an initial query to the final decryption by approximately 47.05%compared to related schemes.

文摘This study presents a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis on Batrachospermaceae based on key taxonomic identifiers(rbcL,psaA,psbA,and COI-5P)from some genera.To systematically explore the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomy within Batrachospermaceae,we integrated molecular and morphological data,and explored the phylogeny,character evolution,and ancestral geographical origin and provided a theoretical support for the classification and geographic origination of Batrachospermaceae.Our findings reveal distinct relationships within the phylogenetic tree.Notably,10 genera(Sirodotia,Batrachospermum,Tuomeya,Volatus,Lympha,Nothocladus,Torularia,Sheathia,Nocturama,and Petrohua)are closely associated in the rbcL phylogenetic tree.Additionally,four genera(Kumanoa,Hoefkenia,Notohesperus,and Virescentia)exhibit high support ratios,indicating their close interrelations.Other genera,including Paludicola,Visia,Acarposporophycos,Macrosporophycos,Visioidea,Balliopsis,and Psilosiphon,exhibit clustering traits.Furthermore,the multigene sequences provide a robust support for Montagnia that forms a monophyletic group.Ancestral reconstruction of morphological characters identifies nine primitive character states,including whorl,fascicle length,cortical cells,secondary fascicles,the shape of carpogonical branch,spermatangia,carposporophyte,carpogonium and trichogyne,with Visia likely representing ancestral traits in Batrachospermaceae.Furthermore,geographical origin maps suggest a potential common ancestral of Batrachospermaceae origin in the American continent.Additional to conventional analyses,including evolutionary and ancestral reconstruction investigations into key morphological characters,we attempt to reconstruct the biogeography within the Batrachospermaceae,thus contributing to a nuanced understanding of its origin.

文摘To reveal the influence of coupled effects of dry-wet cycling and precompression stress(CEDWCPS)on the damage evolution of limestone with horizontal fissure(LHF),a series of degradation and uniaxial compression tests were conducted,and a corresponding piecewise damage constitutive model(PDCM)was established.We found that both dry-wet cycling and precompression stress deteriorate the physical properties,alter the microscopic characteristics,and reduce the mechanical properties of the LHF.These degradations are particularly pronounced under the CEDWCPS,although the magnitude of these changes gradually diminishes with the progression of dry-wet cycling.Meanwhile,they also reduce the deformation degree,prolong the micropore compaction stage,shorten the unstable crack propagation stage,lower the frequency and intensity of AE events,decrease the high-amplitude and high-frequency AE signals,enlarge crack scales,and shorten the crack initiation time.Among the changes of these indicators,the dry-wet cycling plays a dominant role.The crack types of LHF under the CEDWCPS(LHFCEDWCPS)are predominantly tensile cracks,supplemented by shear cracks.The failure mode can be defined as tensileshear composite failure.Finally,the established PDCM effectively captures the nonlinear deformation of micropore and the linear deformation of the matrix in LHFCEDWCPS,with all corresponding R^(2) consistently exceeding 0.97.

文摘As vital hydraulic infrastructures,concrete dams demand uncompromising safety assurance.Seismic effect commonly serves as a potential factor contributing to the damage of concrete dams,making seismic performance analysis crucial for structural integrity.Numerical simulation based on damage mechanics is usually considered as the approach for investigating the seismic damage behavior of concrete dams.To address the limitations of existing studies and extract the key dynamic characteristics of concrete arch dams,a concrete elastoplastic damage mechanics model is adopted,a seismic load input technique involving the viscoelastic boundary along with equivalent nodal forces is generated,and a spring-contact pair simulation technique formodeling the transverse joints of arch dams is developed.The damage process of an arch dam under the classic Koyna seismic load is simulated,with the damage evolution process under seismic action being characterized.The middle sections of the arch dam near the upper portion are considered regions prone to damage under seismic action.Furthermore,the nonlinear dynamic characteristics caused by the opening and closing collision between transverse joints of the arch damunder strong seismic action are extracted.The extracted dynamic characteristic provides a manifestation for the dynamic damage diagnosis of arch dams based on seismic responses.
文摘Rabies is a zoonotic disease with an estimated global mortality of 59,000 people annually and a burden of more than 3.7 million disability-adjusted life years(DALYs)that is caused by a neurotropic lyssavirus[1].Dogs are the primary source of human rabies,as more than 95%of human cases can be traced to dogs[2,3].China faces a substantial burden of rabies,having endured three major human rabies epidemics,which occurred in the 1950s,1981,and 2007[4].Implementation of various prevention and control measures has decreased the number of human rabies cases from 3,300 in 2007 to 167 in 2024.In China.
文摘The shale gas development in China faces challenges such as complex reservoir conditions and high development costs.Based on the pore pressure and geostress coupling theory,this paper studies the geostress evolution laws and fracture network characteristics of shale gas infill wells.A mechanism model of CN platform logging data and geomechanical parameters is established to simulate the influence of parent well’s production on the geostress in the infill well area.It is suggested that with the increase of production time,normal fault stress state and horizontal stress deflection will occur.The smaller the parent well spacing and the longer the production time,the earlier the normal fault stress state appears and the larger the range.Based on the model,the fracture network morphology and construction parameters of infill wells are optimized.parentparentparentparent The results indicate that:1:A well spacing of 500 m achieves a Pareto optimum between“full reserve coverage”and“stress barrier”;2:A parent well recovery degree of 30%corresponds to the critical point of stress reversal,where the lateral deflection rate of the infill fracture is less than 8%and the SRV loss is minimized;3:6-cluster intensive completion with twice the liquid intensity increases the fracture complexity index by 1.7 times,enhances well group EUR by 15.4%,and reduces single-well cost by 22%.This research fills the theoretical gap in the collaborative optimization of“multi-parameter,multi-objective and multi-constraint”and provide parameter optimization basis for shale gas infill well development in China and help to improve the development efficiency and economic benefits.

文摘Plasmas,the most common state of matter in the observable universe,are subject to instabilities of various types:hydrodynamic,magnetohydrodynamic,and electromagnetic.Our limited success in understanding these is due to the lack of direct experimental information on their origins and evolution.Here,we present direct spatially resolved measurements of the femtosecond evolution of the electromagnetic beam-driven instability that arises from the interaction of forward and return currents in an ultrahigh-intensity laser-produced plasma.We track its evolution from the initial linear stage to the later nonlinear stage by measuring the spatiotemporal evolution of the giant(megagauss)magnetic field created in the interaction process.Our experimental findings and numerical simulations are the first to indicate the observed instability triggered by the emission of electromagnetic radiation,like those known in the context of gravitational interaction,where the emission of gravitational radiation drives specific negative-energy modes in rotating black holes or neutron stars.

文摘The oxygen evolution reaction(OER)suffers from sluggish kinetics,necessitating efficient electrocatalysts to reduce overpotentials in water splitting.Currently recognized OER mechanisms primarily include the adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM),lattice oxygen mechanism(LOM),and oxide path mechanism(OPM).Compared to AEM,limited by scaling relationships,and LOM,constrained by stability issues,the OPM offers a promising alternative by enabling direct O-O bond formation via dual active sites,thus bypassing^(*)OOH intermediates and lattice O involvement and achieving a balance between activity and durability.However,activating the OPM process requires precise control over the spatial and electronic structure of active sites,making the design of OPM-based catalysts challenging.While previous reviews have focused on homo/heteronuclear diatomic perspectives of OPM-based catalysts,it is urgent to systematically summarize design strategies to provide a rational reference for their development.Herein,a review of design strategies for OPM-based OER catalysts across three scales is comprehensively presented,including in-situ engineering,doping-enabled sites reconstruction,and introducing new sites for nanoparticles,direct synthesis or post-treatments for molecular catalysts,and doping or template strategies for atom pairs or arrays.The unique advantage of atom arrays is also highlighted,and their future research directions and possible strategies are discussed.This review provides a systematic summary and forward-looking perspectives for rationally designing high-performance OPM-based OER catalysts.
