While extensive research has focused on maize production in Cameroon, the exploration of its value-added products and their profitability in the North-West Region remains underexplored. This study examined the profitability of maize value-added products in Mezam Division, with the objectives to: 1) identify various maize-based products, 2) assess the diversity of these products, 3) conduct a cost-benefit analysis of selected products, 4) examine the relationship between profitability and product diversity, and 5) identify key constraints impacting profitability. To achieve these objectives, structured questionnaires were administered to 500 small-scale maize entrepreneurs randomly selected from five subdivisions. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze objective 1 and 5, while the Shannon Diversity Index was employed to assess product diversity. Additionally, a cost-benefit analysis was conducted on four selected products namely pap, parched corn, peeled parboiled corn, and corn beer, and a correlation analysis was used to examine objective 4. In total, 13 maize value-added products were identified, with a diversity index of 4.4. The total cost of processing the four selected products per entrepreneur using 18 kg of maize per product was FCFA 83631.5 (US $132.75), while the total revenue was FCFA 121864.5 (US $193.43), resulting in an economic profit of FCFA 38,233 (US $60.69). Pap emerged as the most profitable product, with an economic profit of FCFA 27,875 (US $44.24), while corn beer was the least profitable, with an economic profit of FCFA 2133.46 (US $3.39). The correlation analysis revealed a strong negative relationship between product diversity and profitability (r = −0.91), indicating that entrepreneurs can maximize profitability by focusing on a few high-demand products like pap and parched corn. Key constraints to profitability included fluctuating market prices, high production costs, limited access to finance, and inadequate storage facilities. Despite these challenges, our findings indicate that maize value addition is profitable in Mezam Division. Entrepreneurs can leverage this data for informed decision-making and future investments. It is recommended that the government promote maize value addition and provide financial support for modern processing equipment to boost profitability and income generation.展开更多

This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.展开更多

文摘Maize value-added products play a crucial role in reducing post-harvest losses, enhancing food security, and generating income. While extensive research has focused on maize production in Cameroon, the exploration of its value-added products and their profitability in the North-West Region remains underexplored. This study examined the profitability of maize value-added products in Mezam Division, with the objectives to: 1) identify various maize-based products, 2) assess the diversity of these products, 3) conduct a cost-benefit analysis of selected products, 4) examine the relationship between profitability and product diversity, and 5) identify key constraints impacting profitability. To achieve these objectives, structured questionnaires were administered to 500 small-scale maize entrepreneurs randomly selected from five subdivisions. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze objective 1 and 5, while the Shannon Diversity Index was employed to assess product diversity. Additionally, a cost-benefit analysis was conducted on four selected products namely pap, parched corn, peeled parboiled corn, and corn beer, and a correlation analysis was used to examine objective 4. In total, 13 maize value-added products were identified, with a diversity index of 4.4. The total cost of processing the four selected products per entrepreneur using 18 kg of maize per product was FCFA 83631.5 (US $132.75), while the total revenue was FCFA 121864.5 (US $193.43), resulting in an economic profit of FCFA 38,233 (US $60.69). Pap emerged as the most profitable product, with an economic profit of FCFA 27,875 (US $44.24), while corn beer was the least profitable, with an economic profit of FCFA 2133.46 (US $3.39). The correlation analysis revealed a strong negative relationship between product diversity and profitability (r = −0.91), indicating that entrepreneurs can maximize profitability by focusing on a few high-demand products like pap and parched corn. Key constraints to profitability included fluctuating market prices, high production costs, limited access to finance, and inadequate storage facilities. Despite these challenges, our findings indicate that maize value addition is profitable in Mezam Division. Entrepreneurs can leverage this data for informed decision-making and future investments. It is recommended that the government promote maize value addition and provide financial support for modern processing equipment to boost profitability and income generation.

文摘During drilling operations in deep fractured tight gas reservoirs,lost circulation of working fluid frequently occurs due to the formationʼs low pressure-bearing capacity.Adding lost circulation materials(LCMs)to drilling fluids is the most common method for controlling lost circulation.Among these,granular LCMs are widely used,but the application frequency of flaky LCMs has been increasing annually due to their unique morphology.However,the migration and plugging behavior of flaky LCMs within fractures,and the mechanisms enhancing the pressure-bearing capacity of the plugging zone are not well understood.Therefore,this study conducted visual plugging experiments and dynamic fracture plugging experiments to evaluate the plugging mode and pressure-bearing capacity of the plugging slurry with various particle sizes and concentrations of flaky LCMs.The experimental results demonstrate that the fracture plugging process can be divided into four stages:uniform flow stage of the plugging slurry,formation and development stage of the bridging area,formation and development stage of the plugging area,and pressure-bearing stage of the plugging zone.The inclusion of flaky LCMs notably reduces the duration of stages 1 and 2,while simultaneously increasing the proportion of the plugging zone and enhancing its surface porosity.Flaky LCMs reduce the effective fracture width through“interception”and“co-bridging”modes,thus improving plugging zone formation efficiency.Appropriate particle size and concentration of flaky LCMs increase the area and length of the plugging zone.This reduces the fracture width increment caused by injection pressure and enhances frictional force between the plugging zone and fracture surface,thereby improving the pressure-bearing capacity of the plugging zone.However,excessively high concentrations of flaky LCMs result in decreased structural stability of the plugging zone,and excessively large particle sizes increase the risk of plugging outside fracture inlet.The recommended concentration of flaky LCMs in the plugging slurry is 2%–3%,with a particle size 1.2 to 1.5 times that of the bridging granular LCMs and not exceeding twice the fracture width.This study provides a theoretical foundation for selecting LCMs and designing plugging formulations for field applications.

文摘Background:Aortic atherosclerosis increases the risk of embolic events under extracorporeal circulation(ECC).To evaluate the hemodynamic impact of ECC on atheromatous plaques,an atherosclerosis animal model,which is also eligible for ECC,is required.Methods:Twenty-nine New Zealand White rabbits received a pro-atherosclerotic diet(group diet,n=10),a pro-atherosclerotic diet and additional intraaortic balloon insufflation injury(group BI,n=9),or served as controls(n=10).After 3 or 6 months,aortic explants were analyzed by(immuno-)histology and RT-PCR.Results:Blood serum analyses revealed increased cholesterol-levels in groups diet and BI compared to controls(3 months:p=0.03 each,6 months:p<0.0001 each).Aortic inflammatory infiltration was significantly enhanced in groups diet(CD3 at 3 months:p<0.0001,6 months:p=0.02;CD68 at 3 months:p=0.01)and BI(CD3 at 3 months:p<0.0001,6 months:p=0.03;CD68 at 3 months:p=0.04,6 months:p=0.02).Increased intima hyperplasia occurred in both groups(p<0.0001 each).Macroscopic analyses after 3 and 6 months showed ubiquitous lumen-narrowing aortic plaques.Calcification of the intima and media was increased in groups diet(intima:p<0.0001 at 3 and 6 months;media at 3 months:p<0.0001,6 months:p=0.01)and BI(intima:p<0.0001 at 3 and 6 months;media at 3 months:p<0.0001,6 months:p=0.02).Extensive lipid accumulation was found in the intima in both treatment groups(p<0.0001 each).Conclusions:A rabbit model with high aortic calcific plaque burden—diet-induced with no implicit need of an additional intimal injury by an intraaortic balloon insufflation due to comparable outcome—exhibiting multiple pathophysiological aspects of human atherosclerosis has been designed and thoroughly characterized.It is suitable for use in future studies on the interaction between atherosclerotic plaques and the arterial blood flow under ECC.
文摘In the context of urban-rural integration development in China,the distribution of value-added income of rural land collective ownership is related to the protection of farmers rights and interests and the specific implementation of rural revitalization strategy.Based on the entry of rural collectively-owned construction land into the market and the compensation system for land expropriation,this paper discusses in detail the distribution of value-added income of rural land collective ownership,analyzes the current situation,existing problems and causes of the current distribution mechanism,and puts forward countermeasures and suggestions for optimizing the distribution mechanism.Through literature research and case analysis,this paper reveals the unfair phenomenon in the distribution of value-added income of rural land,and discusses the roles and responsibilities of government,collective organizations and individual farmers in the distribution of income.The results show that establishing a fair and reasonable income distribution mechanism,strengthening the construction of laws and regulations,improving farmers participation and protecting their rights and interests are the key to optimizing the distribution of rural land value-added income.In addition,it is expected that this paper will provide some theoretical basis and practical guidance for improving the distribution mechanism of value-added income of rural land collective ownership.

文摘International trade research has long sought to investigate how manufacturers can upgrade within global value chains and escape the“low-end trap”.This paper examines how collaborative innovation can facilitate this ascent,using an undirected weighted network of joint patent applications and firm-level data.By analyzing the network’s structural characteristics and its evolution,we explore the mechanisms through which collaboration drives the rise of manufacturing enterprises within global value chains.Our findings show that:(1)China’s rapidly expanding collaborative innovation network features a distinct“core-periphery”structure,with leading firms,universities,and government research institutions at its center.(2)By strengthening market power and enabling firms to take on more advanced production,collaborative innovation contributes to a higher domestic value-added rate in exports.(3)Heterogeneity analysis reveals that the impact of collaborative innovation on moving up the value chain is particularly evident for firms with strong production and technology absorption capabilities,those positioned lower in the value chain,and those facing fewer trade barriers.

文摘The Hadley Circulation(HC),a fundamental component of global atmospheric circulation,plays an important role in the global energy balance and transport of moisture.The interaction between ENSO and the HC significantly impacts tropical climate and has broad implications for global climate variability through atmospheric teleconnections.The HC is usually represented by the mass stream function.As a result,it can rarely be observed through in-situ measurement.Reanalysis datasets and CMIP models are frequently used to investigate the properties of the HC.Previous studies systematically assess the capability of these CMIP models to represent the spatial distribution and intensity of the HC anomalies associated with ENSO events.However,most of these studies investigate the HC anomaly from a global perspective.In this work,we focus on evaluating the ability of CMIP6 models to capture the three-dimensional features of ENSO-related HC anomalies in comparison to that in six reanalysis datasets.Results show a consistent westward shift of the ENSO-related HC over the tropical Central-Eastern Pacific in almost all CMIP6 models,accompanied by a weakening of the asymmetric component of the ENSO-related HC over the equatorial Pacific.The former is mainly attributed to the westward extension of the Pacific cold tongue in CMIP models,while the latter is more related to the southward shift of the ENSO-related SST and precipitation anomalies in CMIP models.One should be aware of these biases when studying the ENSO-related atmospheric circulation changes.Our study has broad implications for ENSO simulations and the predictability of ENSO-related global climate variabilities.

文摘In 2022, South China(SC) experienced record-breaking rainfall during its first rainy season, causing severe socioeconomic losses. This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.

文摘Climate models are essential for understanding past,present,and future changes in atmospheric circulation,with circulation modes providing key sources of seasonal predictability and prediction uncertainties for both global and regional climates.This study assesses the performance of models participating in phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project in simulating interannual variability modes of Northern Hemisphere 500-hPa geopotential height during winter and summer,distinguishing predictable(potentially predictable on seasonal or longer timescales)and unpredictable(intraseasonal and essentially unpredictable at long range)components,using reanalysis data and a variance decomposition method.Although most models effectively capture unpredictable modes in reanalysis,their ability to reproduce dominant predictable modes-specifically the Pacific-North American pattern,Arctic Oscillation,and Western Pacific Oscillation in winter,and the East Atlantic and North Atlantic Oscillations in summer-varies notably.An optimal ensemble is identified to distinguish(a)predictable-external modes,dominated by external forcing,and(b)predictable-internal modes,associated with slow internal variability,during the historical period(1950-2014)and the SSP5-8.5 scenario(2036-2100).Under increased radiative forcing,the leading winter/summer predictable-external mode exhibits a more uniform spatial distribution,remarkably larger trend and annual variance,and enhanced height-sea surface temperature(SST)covariance under SSP5-8.5 compared to historical conditions.The dominant winter/summer predictable-internal modes also exhibit increased variance and height-SST covariance under SSP5-8.5,along with localized changes in spatial configuration.Minimal changes are observed in spatial distribution or variance for dominant winter/summer unpredictable modes under SSP5-8.5.This study,from a predictive perspective,deepens our understanding of model uncertainties and projected changes in circulations.

文摘Subseasonal-to-seasonal(S2S)forecasting for East Asian atmospheric circulation poses significant challenges for conventional numerical weather prediction(NWP)models.Recently,deep learning(DL)models have demonstrated significant potential in further enhancing S2S forecasts beyond the capabilities of NWP models.However,most current DLbased S2S forecasting models largely overlook the role of global predictors from multiple spheres,such as ocean,land,and atmosphere domains,that are crucial for effective S2S forecasting.In this study,we introduce EAAC-S2S,a tailored DL model for S2S forecasting of East Asian atmospheric circulation.EAAC-S2S employs the cross-attention mechanism to couple atmospheric circulations over East Asia with representative multi-sphere(i.e.,atmosphere,land,and ocean)variables,providing pentad-averaged circulation forecasts up to 12 pentads ahead throughout all seasons.Experimental results demonstrate,on the S2S time scale,that EAAC-S2S consistently outperforms the European Centre for MediumRange Weather Forecasts(ECMWF)Ensemble Prediction System by decreasing the root-mean-square error(RMSE)by3.8%and increasing the anomaly correlation coefficient(ACC)by 8.6%,averaged across all 17 predictands.Our system also shows good skill for examples of heatwaves and the South China Sea Subtropical High Intensity Index(SCSSHII).Moreover,quantitative interpretability analysis including multi-sphere attribution and attention visualization are conducted for the first time in a DL S2S model,where the traced predictability aligns well with prior meteorological knowledge.We hope that our results have the potential to advance research in data-driven S2S forecasting.

文摘Using long-term Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model version 5(WACCM5)simulations initialized with the climatology around the year 2000,we studied the anomalous distribution of planetary wave and gravity wave fluxes during distinct phases of the boreal stratospheric polar vortex(BSPV)and Quasi-Biennial Oscillation(QBO).The contributions of these two types of waves to Brewer-Dobson circulation(BDC)anomalies were further analyzed.The results revealed that under four distinct phases,the northern hemisphere BDC is primarily governed by planetary waves,whereas gravity waves counteract approximately half of the planetary wave influence on the BDC in the upper stratosphere.The QBO regulates the position of the anomaly center within the BDC’s descending branch in the northern hemisphere.In particular,during the westerly phase of the QBO(WQBO),the center of this anomalous descending branch is located in the upper stratosphere,whereas during the easterly phase of the QBO(EQBO),it is located in the lower stratosphere.Southern hemisphere BDC anomalies are regulated more by QBO activity:during the WQBO,it shows synchronous changes with the BDC anomaly in the northern hemisphere,whereas during the EQBO,it exhibits an antiphase relationship with the BDC anomaly in the northern hemisphere.Mesospheric circulation anomalies are predominantly driven by gravity wave activity.The circulation weakens during a weak BSPV and strengthens during a strong BSPV.Additionally,the descending branch anomaly of the northern hemisphere circulation is more pronounced during the WQBO,whereas the ascending branch anomaly of the southern hemisphere circulation is more significant during the EQBO.
文摘Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate in patients with posterior circulation ischemic vertigo(PCI).Methods:Eighty-two patients with PCI who visited the hospital from February 2024 to February 2025 were selected as samples and randomly divided into two groups.Group A received Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate,while Group B received only Betahistine Mesylate.The efficacy,syndrome scores,hemodynamics,and quality of life indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:The efficacy of PCI treatment in Group A was higher than that in Group B(P<0.05).The syndrome scores in Group A were lower than those in Group B(P<0.05).The peak systolic velocity(PSV)of the basilar artery and left and right vertebral arteries in Group A were higher than those in Group B(P<0.05).The quality of life(SF-36)score in Group A was higher than that in Group B(P<0.05).Conclusion:Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate is effective and feasible in the treatment of PCI,with improved hemodynamic indicators and reduced disease scores.

文摘Aiming at the global design issue of transpiration cooling thermal protection system,a self-driven circulation loop is proposed as the internal coolant flow passage for the transpiration cooling structure to achieve adaptive cooling.To enhance the universality of this internal cooling pipe design and facilitate its application,numerical studies are conducted on this systemwith four commonly used cooling mediums as coolant.Firstly,the accuracy of the numerical method is verified through an established experimental platform.Then,transient numerical simulations are performed on the flow states of different cooling mediums in the new self-circulation system.Based on the numerical result,the flow,phase change,and heat transfer characteristics of different cooling mediums are analyzed.Differences in fluid velocity and latent heat of phase change result in significant variation in heat exchange capacity among different coolingmediums,with the maximumdifference reaching up to 3 times.Besides,faster circulation speed leads to greater heat transfer capacity,with a maximum of 7600 W/m^(2).Consequently,the operating mechanism and cooling laws of the natural circulation system is further investigated,providing a reference for the practical application of this system.

文摘The Twain-Hu Basin(THB),located in Central China,serves as a key juncture where the northerly“polluted”airflows of the East Asian winter monsoon meet the southerly warm and humid airflows.Using the T-PCA(T-mode Principal Component Analysis)objective synoptic pattern classification,Flexible Particle-Weather Research and Forecasting(FLEXPARTWRF)model,and Random Forest model,we investigate the influences of synoptic circulations on regional transport,local accumulation,and chemical transformation of PM_(2.5)during heavy air pollution over the THB in January of 2015-2022.The results show that the transport-type synoptic pattern accounts for 65.16%of heavy PM_(2.5)pollution,indicating that regional transport of PM_(2.5)dominates the THB’s heavy air pollution.The PM_(2.5)/CO ratio is higher in the transport-type pattern and positively correlated with PM_(2.5)concentrations,reflecting a higher efficiency of chemical transformation to secondary PM_(2.5)in transport-type pollution compared with the accumulation-type pollution.Transport-type heavy PM_(2.5)pollution is predominantly influenced by upstream anomalous northerly and easterly airflows at the bottom of the high-pressure system,converging with the southern wind in the receptor area over the THB.Accumulation-type heavy pollution exhibits weak wind anomalies in central and eastern China under the control of a uniform pressure field.Furthermore,thermally-induced vertical circulations with sinking airflows in the middle and lower troposphere suppress the vertical air pollutant dispersions.The relative contributions of atmospheric factors for transport-type PM_(2.5)heavy pollution events are 38.0%for dynamical driver,26.8%for thermal driver,and 35.1%for chemical transformation,while in accumulation-type,the contribution rates are 33.9%,36.3%,and 29.7%,respectively.This study elucidates the influences of synoptic patterns on regional transport,local accumulation,and chemical transformation of PM_(2.5)for heavy air pollution,with implications for understanding changes of air quality in the receptor region of regional transport.

文摘Tropospheric ozone pollution has been worsened over most regions of China,adversely affecting human health and ecosystems.The long-term ozone concentration depends largely upon atmospheric circulations.Here,we conducted meteorological adjustment to quantitatively assess the influences of meteorological factors on the ozone evolution in China's seven city clusters during thewarm season(April to October)from 2013 to 2020.Our analysis indicated that northern and eastern regions experienced ozone increases driven by emission changes.Southern regions,particularly the Pearl River Delta(PRD),exhibited ozone rise primarily due to meteorological conditions despite emission changes.In the Sichuan Basin(SCB)and Central Yangtze River Plain(CYP),where ozone levels decreased,meteorological conditions played a significant role in suppressing the ascent of ozone.Empirical orthogonal functions(EOF)analyses suggested that the spatiotemporal trend ofmeteorologyassociated ozone was strongly correlated with the variation of East Asian Trough(EAT),South Asian High(SAH)and the western Pacific subtropical high(WPSH).The top three EOF patterns explained 33.4%,21.8%,and 16.0%of the total variance inmeteorology-associated ozone.Absolute principal component scores-multiple linear regression(APCS-MLR)analyse quantitatively identified that enhanced EAT and SAH with a northward location of WPSH were favourable to surface ozone formation in central and eastern regions,but unfavourable to ozone formation in edge regions such as SCB.
