Understanding Regional Cultural-Psychological Variations and Their Sources in China
This research comprehensively examined regional variations in individualism and collectivism within China and the explanatory power of 20 potential factors derived from the existing cultural psychological theories, including socioecological (e.g., climates, subsistence activities, and modernization) and population (e.g., ethnicity, genetic and linguistic features) ones. Three large-scale studies were conducted. In Study 1 ( N = 18,606), we assess…
County green transformation
Gross ecosystem product (GEP) refers to the direct measurement of a region’s ecosystem product supply capabilities and the basis for value realisation. China has made clear arrangements for establishing GEP assessment regulations, with 36 districts and counties currently conducting GEP assessment, of which 24 districts and counties have executed dual assessments of regional gross domestic product (GDP) and GEP. To explore the influence of GEP ass…
The causal relationship between digital literacy and students’ academic achievement
This meta-analysis focuses on the relationship between digital literacy (DL) and academic achievement. The 35 independent effect sizes that were collected were analyzed using Comprehensive Meta-analysis (CMA) software version 2.0, and the results showed a significant, medium positive correlation between DL and academic achievement. In addition, there were significant differences in the correlation between DL and academic achievement among student…
The COPD risk associated with adulthood weight change and early adulthood BMI
Gaps concerning general adiposity and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are delaying policies for weight interventions in COPD prevention, especially adiposity in early adulthood and weight changes during adulthood. Based on the China Kadoorie Biobank, a prospective cohort between 2004–2008 covering 5 urban and 5 rural areas, we included 138,764 males and 194,159 females aged 35 ~ 70 years. Weight change was defined as the difference b…
A Comprehensive Evaluation of Machine Learning and Classical Approaches for Spaceborne Active-Passive Fusion Bathymetry of Coral Reefs
Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) techniques are increasingly valuable for deriving high-quality bathymetric maps of coral reefs. Investigating the performance of the related SDB algorithms in purely spaceborne active–passive fusion bathymetry contributes to formulating reliable bathymetric strategies, particularly for areas such as the Spratly Islands, where in situ observations are exceptionally scarce. In this study, we took Anda Reef as a ca…

The research results showe…
Drivers and Decoupling Effects of PM2.5 Emissions in China
Although economic growth brings abundant material wealth, it is also associated with serious PM 2.5 pollution. Decoupling PM 2.5 emissions from economic development is important for China's long-term sustainable development. In this paper, the generalized Divisia index method (GDIM) is extended by introducing innovation indicators to investigate the main drivers of PM 2.5 pollution in China and its four subregions from 2008 to 2017. Afterwards, a…

Prediction Performance Comparison of Risk Management and Control Mode in Regional Sites Based on Decision Tree and Neural Network
The traditional risk management and control mode (RMCM) in regional sites has the defects of low efficiency, high cost, and lack of systematism. Trying to resolve these defects and explore the application possibility of machine learning, a characteristic dataset for RMCM in regional sites was established. Three decision tree (DT) algorithms (CHAID, EXHAUSTIVE CHAID, and CART) and two artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms [back propagation (B…

Transnational Accessibility between Residential Areas Based on Multimodal Transport System
Due to the development of globalization, transnational activities are more frequent and evaluations of current accessibility are the basis for accessibility improvements. Accessibility evaluation indices generally contain two parts: travel time and travel probability. However, complex transnational processes involve the multimodal transport system, including air and land transport networks, which makes the calculation of these indices more diffic…
Oil Flow Analysis in the Maritime Silk Road Region Using AIS Data
Monitoring maritime oil flow is important for the security and stability of energy transportation, especially since the “21st Century Maritime Silk Road” (MSR) concept was proposed. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) provides public annual oil flow data of maritime oil chokepoints, which do not reflect subtle changes. Therefore, we used the automatic identification system (AIS) data from 2014 to 2016 and applied the proposed technic…

Estimation of soil available potassium in Chinese agricultural fields using a modified sodium tetraphenyl boron method
China has a long history and has made a substantial contribution to global crop production, but lacking in potassium (K) mineral resource, have led to numerous studies of K availability in Chinese agricultural soils. In this study, we collected 2,428 surface soil samples from nine important agricultural regions to investigate available K reserves in Chinese agricultural soils. Soil highly available K (HAK) and maximally available K (MAK) were est…
Plant community characteristics and functional traits as drivers of soil erodibility mitigation along a land degradation gradient
Plant community characteristics and functional traits may respond to soil erosion due to their high plasticity in varied environments. However, the linkages between plant functional traits and soil properties under erosion stress remain poorly understood, despite the fundamental role they play in controlling soil erosion. Here, we selected 50 plots on degraded land caused by long‐term water erosion representing three degrees of erosion that diffe…
