Based on the notable characteristic of spatial imbalance between energy production and consumption in China, this paper takes the evolution of China＇s primary energy resources development（excluding hydropower） from 1949 to 2007 as the study object, with the aim to sum up the evolutive characteristics and laws of China＇s energy resources development in the past nearly 60 years. Then, based on comprehensive considerations of coal＇s, oil＇s and natural gas＇s basic reserves, qualities, geological conditions production status, and ecological service function of every province, this paper adopts development potential index （DP）to evaluate the development potential of every province＇s en- ergy resources, and divide them into different ranks. Conclusions are drawn as follows： （1） Generally speaking, China＇s gross energy production was increasing in waves from 1949 to 2007. From the viewpoint of spatial patterns, China＇s energy resources development has shown a characteristic of ＂concentrating to the north and central areas, and evolving from linear-shaped to ＂T-shaped＂ pattern gradually since 1949. （2） The structure evolution of China＇s energy resources development in general has shown a trend of ＂coal proportion is dominant but decreasing, while oil and gas proportions are increasing＂ since 1949. （3） At the provincial scale, China＇s energy resources development potential could be divided into large, sub-large, general and small ranks, four in all. In the future, the spatial pattern of China＇s energy production will evolve from ＂T-shaped＂ to ＂R-shaped pattern＂. These conclusions will help to clarify the temporal and spatial characteristics and laws of China＇s energy resources development, and will be beneficial for China to design scientific and rational energy development strategies and plans, coordinate spatial imbalance of energy production and consumption, ensure national energy supply, avoid energy resources waste and disorderly development, and promote regional sustainable development under the globalization back-ground with changeful international energy market.展开更多

The development of NIC provides an opportunity to bridge the digital divide and narrow the regional gap,providing continuous impetus to further promote economic development. Here, we considered 31 provincial-level administrative units in China(not including Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan of China due to data unavailable) and established comprehensive evaluation indicators for the development potential of NIC. Afterward, we used the entropy-weight TOPSIS model to determine the development potential of NIC and analyze its spatio-temporal evolution characteristics. Furthermore, the GeoDetector model was applied to explore the driving mechanism of the NIC development potential. The conclusions were as follows: (1) The Chinese NIC development potential is generally low. The eastern China was the region with the highest development potential year by year, while the development potential in the central China was found to be in an accelerating phase. (2) The evolution of the Chinese NIC development potential’s spatial pattern has been characterized by an inland extension and coastal agglomeration. Moreover, we identified a superior development zone, a rising development zone, an inferior development zone, and a declining development zone. (3) The scope of Chinese NIC development potential agglomeration areas has gradually expanded and its degree has gradually deepened. The range of high-value agglomeration in eastern area gradually expanded and its degree gradually deepened. (4) Investment in innovative talents appears as the core factor affecting the Chinese NIC development potential. Whether acting alone or synergistically with other factors, its promoting effect on Chinese NIC development potential is the strongest.展开更多

Human development is associated with basic necessities for subsistence, the quality of life, and political and civil rights, in addition to income indicators. Our analysis suggests that the concept of human development potentials has two dimensions: the rights of development and limits to human development. Both are largely ignored in the neoclassical theory of development. However, human development is not unbounded, which approaches to a relatively fixed constant at given economic, technological and institutional conditions. This conceptual understanding is supported by results from the empirical examination of the relationships between demands for carbon展开更多

With the increasingly aging population, AD has presented an overwhelming healthcare challenge to modern society; the World Alzheimer Report 2015 has estimated that 46.8 million people worldwide lived with dementia in 2015 and this number will rise to 74.7 million in 2030 and that the total cost of dementia was 818 billion in US$ in 2015 and will reach two trillion in 2030. Post-mortem studies have identified two histopathological hallmarks in the brains of AD patients; extracellular senile plaque with elevated deposition of amyloid β （Aβ） peptides, and intracellular neurofibrillary tangle composed of hyper-phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau.Etiologically, progressive neuronal loss within the cerebral cortex and hippocampus regions of the brain leads to irreversible decline in, and eventually complete loss of, memory and other cognitive functions that afflict AD patients. The widely-accepted amyloid cascade hypothesis for AD pathogenesis holds that accumulation and aggregation of neurotoxic Aβ peptides, due to imbalance of their generation and clearance as a result of changes in genetic makeup, aging and/or exposure to environmental risk factors, is a major and early trigger of AD. This hypothesis has continuously gained support by preclinical and clinical studies （Selkoe and Hardy, 2016）. However, the intensive and costly drug discovery efforts over the past decades based on such a hypothesis have proved extremely frustrating in developing effective therapeutics to treat or slow down the progress of AD, highlighting the need for more research to improve our understanding towards the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which Aβ peptides bring about neurotoxicity and cognitive dysfunction.展开更多

As an important energy source for the economic development of our country, petroleum and chemical industry in our country is developing continuously with the progress of the society. At present, the petroleum and chemical industry in our country has gradually stepped into the forefront of the world. As a kind of non-renewable resources, oil is an important resource formed by the earth's geological process for thousands of years. Nowadays, the increasing demand for oil resources in the international community has resulted in the depletion of oil resources and the difficulty and complexity of oil exploitation projects. Therefore, under the current social environment of shortage of oil resources, effective measures must be taken to comprehensively enhance the geological exploration in the later stage, so as to fully cover the production benefits of oil field exploitation. This paper will sort out and analyze the geological potential tapping and efficiency enhancement in the later stage of oil field development.展开更多

Method: Mouse morula produced in for and in the were vitrified in the solution containing ethylene glycol, Ficoll and sucrose (EFS solution) with one-step and two-step methods. The developing potential and status of the pellucid zona in vitified mouse morula were assessed. Results: The percentages of morula developed into blastocyst stage were 81. 8% and 82.4%, 97. 3% and 98.4%, respectively, after one-step and two-step exposure of in vitro morula or in vivo morula to EFS solution alone, which did not show significant difference compared to their controls (P > 0. 05). The percentage of in vitro morula developed into blastocyst vitrified by onestep method was significantly lower than that by two-step method and coned (P < 0.05, 70.6% vs 81 .3%; 70.6% vs 83 .6%, respectively). However, there was no significant difference between blastocyst rates of in vivo morula vitrified by one-step and two-step methods (P>0.05, 93. 1% us 95.7%). No rupture of pellucid zona was observed in all thawed morula after one-step and two-step vitrification, irrespective of in vitro morula or in vivo morula. Conclusion: Morula produced in vitro and in vivo after vitrification may maintain high survival rate and developing potential. Two-step vitrification method with EFS solution is suitable for in vitro morula, which can improve the developing potential of in vitro morula. Onestep and two-step vitrification method have no detrimennd effect on the developing potential of in vivo morula.展开更多

文摘Located between terrestrial and marine ecosystems,mangrove forests are sensitive to changes in climate.The responses of mangrove ecosystems to climate change in the future can be understood by reconstructing past mangrove dynamics using proxies preserved in the intertidal sediments.Considering the complexity of the proxies commonly used,it is necessary to develop a relatively simple,inexpensive proxy.In this study,available chemical tracers(δ13Corg and C:N)of the four cores(YLW02,YLW03,O18,and Q37)from the intertidal zone of the northern Beibu Gulf(NBG)and a three-end-member(mangrove,sea grass,and suspended particulate matter)model was utilized to determine the contribution of mangrove-derived organic matter(CMOM)in carbonate-free sediments.Compared with the summed concentration of mangrove pollen(SCMP),a significant positive correlation between CMOM and SCMP is displayed.The calculated CMOM for an additional 210Pb-dated sediment core from the Yingluo Bay,NBG(YLW01)clearly indicates a mangrove development going through degradation,flourishing,relative degradation,and relative flourishing,which are separately in correspondence with the lowest,highest,lower,and higher air temperature and rainfall in the time intervals of 1890–1918 AD,1919–1956 AD,1957–1990 AD,and 1991–2010 AD.This suggests that CMOM preserved in intertidal sediments has a potential to reconstruct historical mangrove development in high resolution,at the very least,along the coasts of the NBG.

文摘Alzheimer’s disease （AD） is an age-related eurodegenerative disease that represents the most common cause of dementia among the elderly people. With the increasingly aging population, AD has presented an overwhelming healthcare challenge to modern society; the World Alzheimer Report 2015 has estimated that 46.8 million people worldwide lived with dementia in 2015 and this number will rise to 74.7 million in 2030 and that the total cost of dementia was 818 billion in US$ in 2015 and will reach two trillion in 2030. Post-mortem studies have identified two histopathological hallmarks in the brains of AD patients; extracellular senile plaque with elevated deposition of amyloid β （Aβ） peptides, and intracellular neurofibrillary tangle composed of hyper-phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau.Etiologically, progressive neuronal loss within the cerebral cortex and hippocampus regions of the brain leads to irreversible decline in, and eventually complete loss of, memory and other cognitive functions that afflict AD patients. The widely-accepted amyloid cascade hypothesis for AD pathogenesis holds that accumulation and aggregation of neurotoxic Aβ peptides, due to imbalance of their generation and clearance as a result of changes in genetic makeup, aging and/or exposure to environmental risk factors, is a major and early trigger of AD. This hypothesis has continuously gained support by preclinical and clinical studies （Selkoe and Hardy, 2016）. However, the intensive and costly drug discovery efforts over the past decades based on such a hypothesis have proved extremely frustrating in developing effective therapeutics to treat or slow down the progress of AD, highlighting the need for more research to improve our understanding towards the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which Aβ peptides bring about neurotoxicity and cognitive dysfunction.

文摘With the continuous development of China's social economy, the demand for natural resources is also increasing day by day. As an important energy source for the economic development of our country, petroleum and chemical industry in our country is developing continuously with the progress of the society. At present, the petroleum and chemical industry in our country has gradually stepped into the forefront of the world. As a kind of non-renewable resources, oil is an important resource formed by the earth's geological process for thousands of years. Nowadays, the increasing demand for oil resources in the international community has resulted in the depletion of oil resources and the difficulty and complexity of oil exploitation projects. Therefore, under the current social environment of shortage of oil resources, effective measures must be taken to comprehensively enhance the geological exploration in the later stage, so as to fully cover the production benefits of oil field exploitation. This paper will sort out and analyze the geological potential tapping and efficiency enhancement in the later stage of oil field development.

文摘The carbon emissions and cost during the construction phase are significant contributors to the oilfield lifecycle.As oilfields enter the late stage,the adaptability of facilities decreases.To achieve sustainable development,oilfield reconstruction was usually conducted in discrete rather than continuous space.Motivated by economic and sustainability goals,a 3-phase heuristic model for oilfield reconstruction was developed to mine potential locations in continuous space.In phase 1,considering the process characteristics of the oil and gas gathering system,potential locations were mined in continuous space.In phase 2,incorporating comprehensive reconstruction measures,a reconstruction model was established in discrete space.In phase 3,the topology was further adjusted in continuous space.Subsequently,the model was transformed into a single-objective mixed integer linear programming model using the augmented ε-constraint method.Numerical experiments revealed that the small number of potential locations could effectively reduce the reconstruction cost,and the quality of potential locations mined in phase 1 surpassed those generated in random or grid form.Case studies showed that cost and carbon emissions for a new block were reduced by up to 10.45% and 7.21 %,respectively.These reductions were because the potential locations mined in 1P reduced the number of metering stations,and 3P adjusted the locations of metering stations in continuous space to shorten the pipeline length.For an old oilfield,the load and connection ratios of the old metering station increased to 89.7% and 94.9%,respectively,enhancing operation efficiency.Meanwhile,recycling facilitated the diversification of reconstruction measures and yielded a profit of 582,573 ¥,constituting 5.56% of the total cost.This study adopted comprehensive reconstruction measures and tapped into potential reductions in cost and carbon emissions for oilfield reconstruction,offering valuable insights for future oilfield design and construction.
文摘Objective: To assess the developing potentiality of mouse morula produced in vitro or in the after vitrification and to evaluate the effect of one-step and two-step vitrification methods. Method: Mouse morula produced in for and in the were vitrified in the solution containing ethylene glycol, Ficoll and sucrose (EFS solution) with one-step and two-step methods. The developing potential and status of the pellucid zona in vitified mouse morula were assessed. Results: The percentages of morula developed into blastocyst stage were 81. 8% and 82.4%, 97. 3% and 98.4%, respectively, after one-step and two-step exposure of in vitro morula or in vivo morula to EFS solution alone, which did not show significant difference compared to their controls (P > 0. 05). The percentage of in vitro morula developed into blastocyst vitrified by onestep method was significantly lower than that by two-step method and coned (P < 0.05, 70.6% vs 81 .3%; 70.6% vs 83 .6%, respectively). However, there was no significant difference between blastocyst rates of in vivo morula vitrified by one-step and two-step methods (P>0.05, 93. 1% us 95.7%). No rupture of pellucid zona was observed in all thawed morula after one-step and two-step vitrification, irrespective of in vitro morula or in vivo morula. Conclusion: Morula produced in vitro and in vivo after vitrification may maintain high survival rate and developing potential. Two-step vitrification method with EFS solution is suitable for in vitro morula, which can improve the developing potential of in vitro morula. Onestep and two-step vitrification method have no detrimennd effect on the developing potential of in vivo morula.
