Dynamics and Drivers of Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration by Cropland Afforestation: A Global Meta‐Analysis
Cropland afforestation is a key strategy for enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration and mitigating climate change, yet its global patterns and drivers remain unclear. Here, we conducted a meta‐analysis of 1691 observations to quantify the impact of cropland afforestation on SOC and identify key influencing factors across climatic zones, forest types and soil depths.

This study aimed to explore the levels of psychosocial factors experienced by Chinese and international workers and examine associations between psychosocial factors, health-related outcomes (mental problems and general health), and turnover intention across various occupational stages. A cross-sectional study was conducted using stratified cluster sa…
Assessing the restorative effects of campus greeness on student depression: A comparative study across three distinct university campus type in Macau
This study addresses the growing mental health challenges among university students, with a particular focus on depression, by examining the role of campus greenness in mitigating its effects. In contrast to the majority of studies that concentrate on campus environments in Western countries, this research uniquely investigates how variations in campus density and form within the Chinese context influence the role of campus greenness in mitigatin…

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the relationship between the ratio of neutrophil count to mean hemoglobin concentration (NMHR) and the presence of heart failure (HF) and mortality. This study utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001–2018, with subsequent external validation performed through a hospital-based cohort. The logistic regression model and Cox proportional hazard…
Partnering With Peer‐Endorsed Cities: Unpacking the Role of Peer Choices in Interlocal Collaboration
Partner selection is critical for interlocal collaboration. However, governments often face challenges in identifying suitable partners, which can undermine the potential gains of collaboration. While previous studies suggest that conforming to peers can reduce uncertainty in decision‐making, its role in partner selection remains underexplored. This study explores the effects of peer conformity on interlocal collaboration. We posit that, in colla…
Understanding the well-being of residents in Chinese Continuing Care Retirement Communities—a case of Shanghai
Introduction: China is one of the world's fastest-aging countries. Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) have emerged as a viable option for accommodating and serving older adults. However, Chinese CCRCs are still in the early stages, and comprehensive research on resident well-being is still deficient. The study aims to assess how well residents in CCRCs are faring in terms of their psychological and physical health, considering China's…
Understanding interlocal collaboration for service delivery for migrant workers during the Covid-19 pandemic: Evidence from Guangdong, China
Interlocal collaboration for service delivery (ICSD) for migrant workers has grown rapidly in the postpandemic era. Nevertheless, limited research has investigated the mechanisms through which localities interact with one another in the implementation process. This study explores under what conditions a city collaborates more with one city than another in ICSD for migrant workers in Guangdong Province, China. Our results show that geographical pr…
Internet usage time and trust in doctors: Evidence from China
Although individual-focused literature tends to demonstrate a positive impact of the internet on trust in doctors in China, our study, which focuses on the general public, reveals contrasting results. Our findings imply that the primary manner in which internet usage, encompassing social media usage, influences public trust in doctors is by molding a collective perception of them. Consequently, the medical community may need to take a more proact…
Mapping Higher Education Internationalisation as a Research Space via Natural Language Processing (NLP) Techniques
The productivity of a specific research field hinges on the periodic examination of both the knowledge produced and the knowledge production activities. By harnessing the strength of traditional bibliometric analyses and a variety of Natural language processing (NLP) techniques, this study portrayed a holistic landscape of higher education internationalisation (HEI) research that incorporated time and region through a spatial lens. The findings r…
What is the gap between curator's plan and visitors' perception of the palace museum
The Palace Museum, well known as the Forbidden City, is one of the most splendid and valuable cultural treasures of China and a World Cultural Heritage.

Although prior research has discussed the strategic management of the curator, little is done…
Higher Education Expansion and Population Mobility
China has implemented a higher education expansion policy since 1999, increasing the number of higher education institutions and increasing the number of expansions. This paper uses panel data and intensity double difference method for 31 provinces in China from 1996 to 2020 for the analysis. It is found that the higher education expansion policy has increased the level of population mobility, especially for the southeastern coastal and economica…
Ocular biological parameters and prevalence of myopia in vocational high school and general high school in China
Significance Higher prevalence of myopia is possibly associated with more extended schooling schedules. Therefore, adjustments to high school curricula may aid in reducing the prevalence of myopia among adolescents. Purpose To investigate the prevalence of myopia among 15- to 18-year-old adolescents in Tianjin, China, and to evaluate the impact of different educational schedules on the prevalence of myopia among high school students. Methods This…
What Do Local People Really Need from a Place? Defining Local Place Qualities with Assessment of Users’ Perceptions
China is facing a serious urban regeneration issue in which replicable international-style locations are losing their socio-cultural adaptability, especially in anonymous residential neighbourhoods. This study defines the key location qualities from local literature and then refines these qualities through observation investigations and statistical analysis ( n = 180) to establish links between theories and contemporary uses. Based on the results…
Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the largest Covid-19 outbreak along the China-Myanmar border in Ruili City, Yunnan Province, China
