However, the lidar data resolution over the space and time exists limitation, causing the coupling relationship between FCS and BGBC to remain insufficiently understood. To explore the coupling mechanism between FCS …
Unraveling the Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Nonlinear Drivers of Green Transition of Farmland Use in Major Grain‐Producing Areas
Promoting the green transition of farmland use (GTFU) in major grain‐producing areas is essential for ensuring food security and advancing sustainable agricultural development. However, existing studies on GTFU have predominantly relied on static cross‐sectional analyses, with insufficient attention paid to its nonlinear driving mechanisms. To address these gaps, this study developed a county‐level GTFU evaluation system for Jiangsu Province base…
Global meets local
Glocalisation represents a dialectical relationship between global and local interactions. Scholars have examined the glocalisation process within tourism, while broader globalisation dates back to 1000 BC and shows distinct characteristics across various phases. This article explores the dynamic evolutionary logic of the glocalisation process in the Lushan Mountain Scenic Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site designated as a Cultural Landscape. Usi…

Threshold, Care Climate, and Place
Drawing on two waves of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, this study advances a Threshold–Care Climate–Place lens on late-life depression by asking whether any shortfall in assistance with daily activities relates to depressive symptoms, and how that link depends on the relational tone of family care and the contexts in which older adults live. To balance breadth with depth, depression is measured both as a cross-wave harmonized …
Women in Palaeoart and the Afterlives of Symbols
Women-centred motifs in African rock art form part of the most persistent symbolic repertoire of early cosmologies. Despite their prominence, these figures have received limited sustained analysis. Examination of their contexts reveals four recurrent logics—care, regeneration, boundary mediation, and the social encoding of voice—that structure social and ritual life. A comparative case from Alice Walker’s The Color Purple shows these logics reart…
How does summer extreme weather affect regional variations in tourism demand
Intensifying extreme summer weather under ongoing climate change is exposing tourism to growing vulnerabilities across regions. While prior research has noted these impacts, regional dynamics in tourism demand remain underexplored. This study examines the spatial dynamic effects of extreme summer weather on tourism demand across districts in the Republic of Korea, where a pronounced summer season and surrounding coastlines increase exposure to cl…
The differential impact of perceived job security on part‐time and full‐time entrepreneurial intention
Entrepreneurship has been conceptualized as a dichotomous choice for a long time, which blends two types of entrepreneurship (i.e., part‐time and full‐time) and consequently hinders our understanding of entrepreneurial activities. Drawing on real options perspective, we theorize that the certainty related to paid employment (i.e., perceived job security) may increase personal further investment in wage employment, indicated by the affective organ…

Fragile Fortune
A sizable group of superwealthy business elites have emerged in China, now home to the world's second-largest number of US dollar billionaires. Whereas existing studies highlight how large fortunes confer enormous power to their holders, this article shows, through an original data set on China's top business tycoons, that they often have trouble sustaining their absolute wealth or relative position. It argues that a key source of concentrated we…
Towards effective mobilization of social participation
State mobilization is crucial for promoting social participation in mainland China. Due to its historically weak roots, social participation’s limited popularity reflects the failure of China’s current instrumental mobilization approach which focuses on risk control, bureaucratism, and implementing top-down directives. As explained in this article, mobilization should be a value-oriented and inclusive process that emphasizes people’s happiness ra…

Dramatic escalation in metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular risk in a Chinese population experiencing rapid economic development
Cardiovascular risk escalated dramatically in this population between 2002 and 2010. The escalation may relate to the rapid economic development, which led to accelerating changes in nutrition, lifestyle, and socio-economic status. Our findings suggest that health transition in rapidly developing second- and third-world countries may be much faster than what has been observed in Western countries
