Published: November 2024

AbstractConsidering climate change adaptation in provincial land and space planning is of great significance for ensuring good ecology, agricultural safety, and urban livability. In conjunction with the compilation of the “Liaoning Provincial Land and Space Planning (2020–2035)”, a land and space planning meteorological assessment technology suitable for climate has been established. From the three dimensions of climate resources, meteorological disaster risk, and wind-heat environment and meteorological diffusion capacity, 25 elements are selected to study the climate endowment and risk of land and space, and the spatial evaluation of agricultural and urban climate suitability and ecological climate importance is given; and using the climate change forecast results under different scenarios from 2020 to 2035, the spatiotemporal distribution of the province’s future climate is analyzed. In summary, a comprehensive climate zoning of Liaoning Provincial Land and Space Planning is drawn, and climate adaptation strategy suggestions for each zone are proposed.

AbstractUsing the hourly rainfall data in the Data as a Server, based on the North China Numerical Forecasting System (CMA-BJ), the Mesoscale Weather Numerical Forecasting System (CMA-MESO), and the Northeast Numerical Forecasting System (CMA-DB) of the China Meteorological Administration, a multi-model fusion rainfall forecasting method is proposed and tested in Laoning from 2022 to 2023. The results show that without considering the deviation within a radius of 40km, during the Northeast cold vortex rainfall process, the success rate of the fusion forecast in 2022 increased by an average of 13.08%, and the hit rate increased by an average of 0.57%. In 2023,these numbers are 25.7% and 17.5%.During the subtropical high-pressure rainfall process, the success rate of the fusion forecast in 2022 increased by an average of 16.8%, and the hit rate increased by an average of 1%.In 2023,the hit rate increased 289%. During the typhoon storm process, the success rate of the fusion forecast in 2022 increased by an average of 34.21%, and the hit rate increased by an average of 14.9%.In 2023, these numbers are 30.7% and 651%.When short-term heavy rainfall is caused by the influence of systems such as upper troughs, the success rate of the fusion forecast in 2022 increased by an average of 32.2%, and the hit rate increased by an average of 4.07%. Under the influence of systems such as the Northeast cold vortex and upper troughs, the success rate of the fusion forecast shows positive growth, while under the background of subtropical high pressure and typhoons, the fusion forecast is a negative skill compared to the original numerical model.

Country-Wide Effects of Urban Heat Island on Cooling and Heating Energy Use—An Empirical Case of Office Buildings in South Korea
Authors: Ngarambe Jack , Kim Gon , Yun Geun Young 
Published: November 2024

AbstractUrban Heat Islands (UHI) affect building energy use in many cities worldwide. The correlations between UHI and building energy use have mostly been studied via city-scale modeling simulations, making validation of the obtained results challenging. In this study, we use clustering and statistical methods to examine the relationship between various indicators of UHI and building energy use, utilizing archived empirical data on energy consumption in office buildings across the entire country of South Korea. Our findings reveal considerable differences in UHI behavior across provinces and cities in the country. These variations are driven by a complex interplay of factors related to geographic locations, urbanization levels, and the topography of the provinces. These results suggest that mitigative efforts for UHI in South Korea should consider targeted measures tailored to specific locales. We also identify strong positive correlations between various UHI indicators, particularly monthly average Urban Heat Island Intensity (UHII) and cooling energy consumption in office buildings. However, the relationship between UHII and heating energy consumption was largely non-existent. These findings offer an empirical foundation for the development of efficient and inclusive policies that promote livability in urbanized areas.
Impact of Building Type Selection on Environmental Ventilation Effects in Residential Communities
Authors: Yan Li 
Published: November 2024

AbstractThe selection of residential building types generally considers the economic benefits of land space utilization or the control of plot ratio by higher-level planning for current land utilization, with less consideration for the impact of buildings on the environment, especially the ventilation and heat dissipation of the site. In this study, three commonly used building forms, small-sized villa buildings, multi-story buildings commonly used in old communities, and high-rise buildings commonly selected in most residential areas, were chosen as research objects. The numerical simulation of wind field changes in residential areas was conducted using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The conclusion drawn is that under the same climatic background, different building forms have a significant impact on the ventilation of the environmental space, and higher building heights have a significant strengthening effect on the surrounding wind environment.High-rise buildings can achieve an average wind speed increase compared to the original area Above 50%.On the sides parallel to the incoming wind direction, there will be obvious areas of increased wind speed, and with the increase of building height, the area of increased wind speed also increases.The maximum can be expanded to 3 times the original wind speed or more.On the leeward side of the building, there will be a more obvious area of air stagnation, and the lower the building height and the smaller the volume, the larger the area of air stagnation.

Published: November 2024

AbstractServing as a vital ecological space and public center for social activities, city play a key role in people’s urban life. Rational and efficient layout is essential to promote citizens’ participating level, which is the aim of building kinds of city parks. By investigating current situation of some typical city parks and inducing the data analysis method of GIS, POI and spatial autocorrection analysis, this research reveals the main feature of “high agglomeration and group” of city parks in major city centers in Mianyang and its positive effects. The research also shows that the number and spatial distribution density of city parks are strongly correlated with natural factors such as elevation, slope, and topography, as well as social factors including population, transportation, and economic growth, which causes an imbalanced layout geographically. Taking Mianyang as the research object, the aim of this paper is to visualize and quantitatively study the spatial distribution characteristics and its influencing factors, and provide basic analysis for the development of urban parks in Mianyang, and promote the implementation of Park City and Healthy City strategy in Mianyang.

Published: November 2024

AbstractCompared to general rainfall events, sudden rainfall has always been a challenge and focus of weather forecasting and research. In mid-July 2022, sudden heavy rainfall occurred in the northwest of the Sichuan Basin, resulting in the severe disasters. To better understand the causes of such rainfall events, a comparative analysis of the physical environment and dynamic characteristics of these two sudden rainfall events is conducted based on observational data and ERA5 reanalysis data. The results showed that both temperature and moisture environments of the events exhibited sudden changes. Before the onset of rainfall event, energy, moisture, and instability are increased explosively in a short period, reaching extreme conditions. Intense upward motion occurred as mid-to-upper-level cyclonic vorticity developed downward to the lower levels. Rainfall events is occurred during the optimal period when vorticity and moisture were coupled, with a good correspondence between the maximum wet vorticity area and the rainfall area, indicating the diagnostic significance of wet vorticity for identifying rainfall areas.

Published: November 2024

AbstractThe Fujiang River Basin, marked by its varied topography and frequent natural calamities, necessitates the establishment of resilient urban areas. This is essential for augmenting the region’s capacity to manage disaster risks and for the enhanced development of its towns. This research based on the kernel density analysis method, analyzes and summarizes the distribution of geological hazards in the Fujiang River Basin, and then identifies the urgency of improving the resilience of urban agglomerations in the Fujiang River Basin, and proposes corresponding planning strategies. The preliminary conclusions are as follows: in the Fujiang River basin, the landforms prone to landslide, debris flow, collapse and slope instability are mainly distributed along the topographic inflection point. These geological disasters are mainly concentrated in Hechuan, Pingwu, Jiangyou, Santai, Tongnan and other places. In contrast, the rest of the tributary areas are less prone to such disasters due to their broad, basin-like topography.

AbstractThe allocation of public service facilities based on community life circle is the main measure of urban social governance at present. Although there are many researches on the allocation of public service facilities, the evaluation on different levels of community life circle is still insufficient. Taking Mianyang city of Sichuan Province as an example, based on big data such as city blocks, roads and POI, the different levels of community life circles are delineated and their public service facilities are evaluated. The results show the following: (1) Combined 15, 10 and 5 min walking time with roads and administrative boundaries, three levels of community life circle is defined comprehensively. (2) The public service facility coverage rate and community life circle standard rate have gradually decreased from a 15-min community life circle(15min-CLC) to a 10-min community life circle(10min-CLC) and then a 5-min community life circle(5min-CLC). The unevenly distributed basic public service facilities, such as secondary schools and hospitals, mainly accounts for the low rates. (3) All categories of public service facilities present remarkable spatial auto-correlation, which shows on a characteristic transform from “core-periphery” to “one-core multi-center” distribution pattern with the decrease of the community life circle level. The study revealed the spatial distribution characteristics of urban public service facilities under different community life circle levels, and provided theoretical basis for optimizing the allocation of public service.

Published: November 2024

AbstractAddressing the fundamental health needs of residents and enhancing the accessibility of healthcare services represent essential objectives in the development of healthy urban environments. Consequently, the investigation into the spatial arrangement of medical and healthcare facilities holds substantial significance. Taking Mianyang City as a case, this study investigated the spatial distribution of these facilities through spatial distribution direction analysis and kernel density analysis. The spatial distribution direction analysis showed that the layout of medical and health institutions in Mianyang extended from northwest to southeast. The kernel density analysis showed that medical facilities in Mianyang city were generally concentrated in the central urban area, with a high-density spatial distribution pattern. The spatial pattern of “single main core + multiple cores” is presented.The findings inform strategic policy recommendations aimed at optimizing the allocation and adjustment of health resources in Mianyang City, providing a basis for scientific formulation and implementation of regional health planning.
A Comparative Study of the Public’s Risk Perception of Nuclear Energy in Different Regions

Published: November 2024

AbstractIn recent years, many proposed or under construction nuclear facilities projects have been canceled due to strong opposition from the local public, such as the 2013 Jiangmen anti-nuclear incident, 2016 Lianyungang anti-nuclear incident and 2018 Changsha nuclear industry relocation reconstruction incident. It can be seen that public acceptance has emerged as a bottleneck problem in the development of nuclear energy. It is very important for the sustainable development of nuclear energy to understand public risk perception and attitude of nuclear energy in different regions, especially around the nuclear power plant. Based on 184 samples of Haiyan County and 811 samples of other regions of the country, this study used descriptive statistics and other analysis to conduct a comparative empirical study on the public perception and attitude of nuclear energy between Haiyan County and other regions of the country. The study found that compared with the whole country, the people lived in Haiyan County had a slightly lower perceived risk, a higher perceived benefit and knowledge. And they placed greater trust in regulator, experts and nuclear industry. Our results could provide some implications for risk communication mechanism in the field of nuclear energy.
Rainstorm Waterlogging Simulation and Risk Assessment in Central Urban Area of Chengdu, China
Authors: Sun Rui , Xu Jinxia , Zhang Liang 
Published: November 2024

AbstractUrban rainstorm waterlogging disasters affect the sustainable urban development seriously. The distribution of waterlogging disaster risk is not only affected by rainstorm, but also closely related to urban terrain, population distribution and urban built environment. In this paper, based on the soil conservation service (SCS) runoff generation model and GIS tools, we selected Chengdu as the research area and proposed a simplified urban rainstorm waterlogging disaster model which can simulate the 3h waterlogging scenarios under the 10, 50, and100 year return periods of rainstorm. The proposed model overcome the drawbacks of time-consuming calculation, high data demands and low applicability of the previous hydrodynamic model. The results show that: (1) Under the rainstorm return period of 10a, 50a and 100a, the maximum inundation elevation in the central urban area can reach 0.67m, 0.72m and 0.79m, respectively. The flooded area accounts for 4.3%, 12.6% and 18.4% of the central urban area, respectively. (2) The ROC value of MaxENT waterlogging probability prediction model developed in this paper is above 0.8, and the distance from road traffic is the most contribution factor. (3) The risk level of rainstorm and waterlogging in the south of the Chengdu is significantly higher than that in the north, and gradually decreases from the urban center to the surrounding suburbs. This risk distribution is closely related to the precipitation climate distribution and the terrain.
1/c deformations of AdS3 boundary conditions and the Dym hierarchy
Authors: Lara Kristiansen , Pino Miguel , Reyes Francisco 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This work introduces a novel family of boundary conditions for AdS3 General Relativity, constructed through a polynomial expansion in negative integer powers of the Brown-Henneaux central charge. The associated dynamics is governed by the Dym hierarchy of integrable equations. It is shown that the infinite set of Dym conserved charges generates an abelian asymptotic symmetry group. Additionally, these boundary conditions encompass black hole solutions, whose thermodynamic properties are examined.
Stability of complement value problems for p-Lévy operators
Authors: Foghem Guy 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
We set up a general framework tailor-made to solve complement value problems governed by symmetric nonlinear nonlocal integro-differential p-Lévy operators. A prototypical example of integro-differential p-Lévy operators is the well-known fractional p-Laplace operator. Our main focus is on nonlinear integro-differential equations in the presence of Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin conditions and we show well-posedness results. Several results are new even for the fractional p-Laplace operator but we develop the approach for general translation-invariant nonlocal operators. We also bridge the gap from nonlocal to local, by showing that solutions to the local Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems associated with p-Laplacian are strong limits of the nonlocal ones.
The risk of acute infection in association with first ever diagnosed depression: a cohort study
Authors: Aebi Noah , Meier Christoph R. , Jick Susan S. , Lang Undine , Spoendlin Julia 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Purpose
To assess the risk of acute infections in patients with first ever diagnosed depression compared to patients with no diagnosed depression in a primary-care database.

Methods
We conducted a cohort study using the UK CPRD GOLD database (2000–2019). We identified patients aged 18 years or older with a recorded Read code for depression (cohort entry date) and compared them to patients with no Read codes for depression using risk set sampling. Comparison groups were frequency-matched on age and sex, and comparison patients were required to have ≥ 1 general practitioner (GP) contact within 14 days before cohort entry. The primary outcome was a composite of outpatient diagnosed acute infections, including respiratory, gastrointestinal, urogenital infections and septicemia) within the two-years after cohort entry. We applied propensity score fine stratification and estimated incidence rates and IR ratios (IRR) using negative binomial regression.

Results
In a weighted population of 285,922 patients with diagnosed depression and 285,921 comparison patients, the IR of acute infections was 97.3/1000 person-years (py) in patients with and 83.7/1000 py in patients with no diagnosed depression. The weighted IRR of acute infection was 1.18 (95% CI 1.16–1.20) comparing those with and with no diagnosed depression. Excluding patients with baseline comorbidities yielded an IRR even closer to the null: 1.07 (95% CI, 1.04–1.09).

Conclusions
Our results suggest that patients with diagnosed depression are not at a meaningfully increased risk of acute infections compared to patients with no diagnosed depression. Slightly increased overall relative risks of infections can be explained by residual differences in health care utilization and by the severity of comorbidities.
Social preferences and the variability of conditional cooperation
Authors: Baader Malte , Gächter Simon , Lee Kyeongtae , Sefton Martin 
Published: November 2024

AbstractWe experimentally examine how incentives affect conditional cooperation (i.e., cooperating in response to cooperation and defecting in response to defection) in social dilemmas. In our first study, subjects play eight Sequential Prisoner’s Dilemma games with varying payoffs. We elicit second mover strategies and find that most second movers conditionally cooperate in some games and free ride in others. The rate of conditional cooperation is higher when the own gain from defecting is lower and when the loss imposed on the first mover by defecting is higher. This pattern is consistent with both social preference models and stochastic choice models. In a second study subjects play 64 social dilemma games, and we jointly estimate noise and social preference parameters at the individual level. Most of our subjects place significantly positive weight on others’ payoffs, supporting the underlying role of social preferences in conditional cooperation. Our results suggest that conditional cooperation is not a fixed trait but rather a symptom of the interaction between game incentives and underlying social preferences.
A generalisation of simple Harnack curves

with totally real logarithmic Gauss map. First, we investigate which of the many properties of simple Harnack curves survive this generalisation. Then, we construct new examples using tropical geometry. Eventually, since generalised Harnack curves can develop arbitrary singularities, in contrast with the original definition, we pay a special attention to the simplest new instance of generalised Harnack curves, namely curves with a single hyperbolic node. In particular, we determine the topological classification of such curves for any given degree.
