Land degradation sensitivity assessment and convergence analysis in Korla of Xinjiang,China

Land degradation has a major impact on environmental and socio-economic sustainability.Scientific methods are necessary to monitor the risk of land degradation.In this study,the environmental sensitive area index (ESAI) was utilized to assess land degradation sensitivity and convergence analysis in Korla,a typical oasis city in Xinjiang of China,which is located on the northeast border of the Tarim Basin.A total of 18 indicators depicting soil,climate,vegetation,and management qualities were used to illustrate spatial-temporal patterns of land degradation sensitivity from 1994 to 2018.We investigated the causes of spatial convergence and divergence based on the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) models.The results show that the branch of the Tianshan Mountains and oasis plain had a low sensitivity to land degradation,while the Tarim Basin had a high risk of land degradation.More than two-thirds of the study area can be categorized as "critical" sensitivity classes.The largest percentage (32.6%) of fragile classes was observed for 2006.There was no significant change in insensitive or low-sensitivity areas,which accounted for less than 0.4% of the entire observation period.The ESAI of the four time periods (1994–1998,1998–2006,2006–2010,and 2010–2018) formed a series of convergence patterns.The convergence patterns of 1994–1998 and 1998–2006 can be explained by the government's efforts to "Returning Farmland to Forests" and other governance projects.In 2006–2010,the construction of afforested work intensified,but industrial development and human activities affected the convergence pattern.The pattern of convergence in most regions between 2010 and 2018 can be attributed to the government's implementation of a series of key ecological protection projects,which led to a decrease in sensitivity to land degradation.The results of this study altogether suggest that the ESAI convergence analysis is an effective early warning method for land degradation sensitivity.
Prioritizing woody species for the rehabilitation of arid lands in western Iran based on soil properties and carbon sequestration

Plants are an important component in many natural ecosystems.They influence soil properties,especially in arid ecosystems.The selection of plant species based on their adaptations to site conditions is essential for rehabilitation of degraded sites and other construction sites such as check-dams.Other factors to be considered in species selection include their effects on soil properties and their abilities to meet other management objectives.The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of native (Populus euphratica Oliv.and Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb.) and introduced (Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh.and Prosopis juliflora (Swartz) DC.) woody species on soil properties and carbon sequestration (CS) in an arid region of Iran.Soil sampling was collected at three soil depths (0–10,10–20 and 20–30 cm) at the sites located under each woody species canopy and in an open area in 2017.Soil physical-chemical property was analyzed in the laboratory.The presence of a woody species changed soil characteristics and soil CS,compared with the open area.For example,the presence of a woody species caused a decrease in soil bulk density,of which the lowest value was observed under E.camaldulensis (1.38 g/cm~3) compared with the open area (1.59 g/cm~3).Also,all woody species significantly increased the contents of soil organic matter and total nitrogen,and introduced species had more significant effect than native species.The results showed that CS significantly increased under the canopy of all woody species in a decreasing order of P.euphratica (9.08 t/hm~2)>E.camaldulensis (8.37 t/hm~2)>P.juliflora (5.20 t/hm~2)>T.ramosissima (2.93 t/hm~2)>open area (1.33 t/hm~2),thus demonstrating the positive effect of a woody species on CS.Although the plantation of non-native species had some positive effects on soil properties,we recommend increasing species diversity in plantations of native and introduced woody species to provide more diversity for the increased ecosystem services,resilience,health and long-term productivity.
Variation characteristics and prediction of pollutant concentration during winter in Lanzhou New District,China

PM_(2.5)and PM_(10)were the main air pollutants during winter in Lanzhou New District,China.In this paper,WRF model output combined with hourly monitoring data of pollutant concentration was used to analyze characteristics of the concentration change and to study the relationship between meteorological elements and PM_(10)/PM_(2.5)in Lanzhou New District in January,2018.Meanwhile,the concentration changes of PM_(2.5)and PM_(10)were predicted by wavelet analysis combined with BP neural network.The results show that:(1)Due to the cold front process in winter,PM_(2.5)was negatively correlated with the water vapor mixing rate.PM_(10)was positively correlated with air temperature and negatively correlated with air pressure.(2)There was an inversion layer in the atmosphere near the high value day of PM_(2.5)and PM_(10),the surface was controlled by low pressure,low wind speed,and the situation of low value day of PM_(2.5)was the opposite.On the day of high value of PM_(10),the air temperature below 600 hPa was higher,and the wind speed near the surface was also higher.(3)Wavelet analysis combined with BP(Back Propagation)neural network had a good prediction effect on PM_(2.5),which could basically reflect the hourly change of PM_(2.5)concentration.However,the simulation effect of PM_(10)was poor,and the input parameters of surrounding pollutants should be added to improve the prediction effect.
A Potential Chinese Medicine Granule Suppressing ARDS of COVID-19: Keguan-1

Recently, a well-designed, exploratory clinical trial on the management of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by a Chinese medicine (CM) Keguan-1 has been conducted by Dr. XIAO Xiao-he and his colleagues.For the emergency of COVID-19 treatment, conventional new vaccine and new drug development is a money consuming and time demanding process. Consequently, it is a realistic choice to explore potential therapeutic drugs among repurposing drugs such as hydroxychloroquine and remdesivir. However, none of them lives up to the expectation for now. Under such circumstances, CM, with thousands years of medical practice including various forms of herbal medicine may be an alternative medicine approach in COVID-19 treatment. As a role model, Lianhua Qingwen Capsule (连花清瘟胶囊,LQC)—a Chinese patent medicine is proved to significantly inhibit the SARS-COV-2 replication, affects virus morphology and exerts anti-inflammatory activity in vitro. In a further clinical trial, LQC showed effectiveness and safety for the treatment of COVID-19 on the basis of usual treatment especially improving the recovery rate significantly.
猪δ 冠状病毒病原学研究进展

猪腹泻病一直是困扰我国乃至世界养猪业的一大难题,对于引起仔猪腹泻病原体的研究更是一大热点。2007年香港学者Dong等在监测我国南方地区SARS(Severe acute respiratory syndrome)病毒流行情况时,通过宏基因组学技术在亚洲豹猫和中国白鼬獾的粪便中鉴定到一种新的冠状病毒[1]。随后Woo等在对香港地区不同动物来源的样品开展冠状病毒监测时,又检测到7种新的冠状病毒,其中就包括猪 δ冠状病毒(Porcine deltacoronavirus, PDCoV)[ 2]。美国俄亥俄州于2014年1月中旬首次在腹泻仔猪的粪便和小肠中检测到PDCoV的感染,相继迅速蔓延到其他多个州,引起养猪业和兽医领域的关注并开展了一系列的疾病筛查工作,随后我国大陆也检测到该病原的存在[3-5]。目前该病已在美国、墨西哥、加拿大、泰国、越南、老挝、韩国、日本、中国台湾及中国大陆等地检出且呈现流行趋势[6-12]。与猪流行性腹泻病毒(Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus,PEDV)、猪传染性胃肠炎病毒(Transmissible gastroenteritis vi- rus,TGEV)和猪轮状病毒(Porcine rotavirus, PoRV)相似,PDCoV感染可引起猪呕吐、严重腹泻和脱水等症状,仔猪表现出较高的死亡率[13]。更重要的是,PDCoV常与PEDV存在共感染的情况,不仅加重了猪群的危害性,也给疾病的诊断和预防带来困难[14]。作为新发的传染性猪病,猪δ冠状病毒病尚无商业化的疫苗和有效的治疗手段,加之其广泛的宿主嗜性,对食品安全和公共卫生也存在潜在的危害。
超声引导下神经根阻滞在神经根性腰腿痛中的应用研究

神经根性腰腿痛属于一种较为常见的慢性疼痛性疾病,引起神经性腰腿痛的因素较多,其中以腰椎间盘突出症为主要致病因素,导致神经根性疼痛的主要机理包括化学介质刺激、自身免疫反应以及机械性压迫、神经根周围水肿等,神经根周围炎性水肿程度与病人疼痛程度相关。目前临床上缓解疼痛常用方法为神经根阻滞,而准确的定位是保证神经阻滞安全有效实施的基础,目前临床上应用的腰椎椎旁阻滞,可在一定程度上改善病人症状,但此方法操作过程不能直接观察病人病变部位,并易引发旁路神经刺激、阻滞神经定位偏倚等不良事件的发生,影响病人预后。超声引导下神经阻滞是一种可视化疼痛诊疗的新技术,此技术可直观操作治疗过程,在一定程度上提高了神经阻滞治疗的准确率和成功率。本研究中运用超声引导下神经根阻滞对神经根性腰腿痛病人进行治疗,以探究其有效性和安全性,为临床上神经根性腰腿痛的治疗提供新方向。
脉冲射频治疗急性期带状疱疹三叉神经痛疗效观察

带状疱疹三叉神经痛多发于老年人,发作时疼痛剧烈,说话、吃饭、刷牙等均可诱发疼痛。虽然其在带状疱疹神经痛中所占比例较小(18.9%),但常常合并角膜炎、失明、脑炎等严重的并发症,若不及时治疗,造成病程迁延,还可导致带状疱疹后神经痛(postherpetic neuralgia,PHN)发生率(18.7%)的升高,使病人身心健康和生存质量受到严重的困扰。近年来,治疗带状疱疹与PHN的技术不断涌现,其中脉冲射频技术(pulsed radio frequency,PRF)为带状疱疹及PHN的治疗带来了新思路。脉冲射频具有改变神经纤维髓鞘细胞的血流与神经营养和调节中枢神经疼痛介质如P物质和内啡肽的含量等优点,可以显著降低组织温度而降低不良反应的风险,有效的进行神经调节。国内有研究报道脉冲射频治疗颈段带状疱疹及头面部PHN疗效确切,可以改善病人生存质量。国外亦有文献研究表明半月神经节脉冲射频可以有效缓解三叉神经区域疱疹疼痛。临床研究表明预防PHN发生的关键时间是带状疱疹发病的1个月内,因此本研究探讨脉冲射频早期治疗急性期带状疱疹三叉神经痛(出疱疹最初30天内的疼痛),观察治疗后疼痛减轻情况及PHN的发生情况,为临床治疗带状疱疹神经痛预防带状疱疹后神经痛提供依据。在抗病毒、抗炎等治疗的基础上,本研究对11例三叉神经分布区域的急性期带状疱疹病人采用经卵圆孔三叉神经半月神经节脉冲射频治疗,术后取得满意的临床效果。
李方洁调气机辨治顽固性失眠经验

总结李方洁教授对气机升降出入与失眠病因病机关系的认识和调畅气机辨治顽固性失眠的经验:气机升降出入失调,气机不畅,“阳不交阴”是顽固性失眠的主要病因病机之一,不可忽视。人体气机升降出入的运行模式有肝木升、肺金降、肾水升、心火降,脾胃执中央以运四旁,为气机升降之枢,以及人与外环境之间的“出入关系”。临证多见的肝气不升、胃气不降,心火不降、肾水不升,卫不入营、阳不入阴等顽固性失眠,反映气机运行失于条畅的不同环节。故以调畅气机为切入点,常收桴鼓之效,待证去七分再调其气血阴阳以巩固预后。
城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准修改完善的思考

在水资源、水环境、水生态三水共治目标下,制定削减水域污染大户城镇污水的技术经济政策,对建立现代环境治理体系非常重要。城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准控制对象是全国每天1.8亿t的城镇污水,影响范围是不同气候带的大小水域和不同城市的污水回用要求,所以污染物排放标准指标应体现不同污染物控制的最佳技术经济效益。2016年《城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准》(征求意见稿)却废除了排污去向,以膜技术为依据提出了各项标准值。环保部发现问题,叫停了该标准制定工作,至今,城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准的修正完善工作没有任何进展。本文就城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准存在问题进行分析,并提出几点思考,旨在为城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准的制定提供参考。
Sulfonated polybenzimidazole/amine functionalized titanium dioxide (sPBI/AFT) composite electrolyte membranes for high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells usage

The novel sulfonated polybenzimidazole (sPBI)/amine functionalized titanium dioxide (AFT) composite membrane is devised and studied for its capability of the application of high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells (HT-PEMFCs), unlike the prior low temperature AFT endeavors. The high temperature compatibility was actualized because of the filling of free volumes in the rigid aromatic matrix of the compositewith AFT nanoparticles which inhibited segmental motions of the chains and improved its thermal stability. Besides, amine functionalization of TiO_2 enhanced their dispersion character in the sPBI matrix and shortened the interparticle separation gap which finally improved the proton transfer after establishing interconnected pathways and breeding more phosphoric acid (PA) doping. In addition, the appeared assembled clusters of AFT flourished a superior mechanical stability. Thus, the optimized sPBI/AFT (10 wt%) showed 65.3 MPa tensile strength; 0.084 S·cm~(-1) proton conductivity (at 160 °C; in anhydrous conditions), 28.6% water uptake and PA doping level of 23 mol per sPBI repeat unit. The maximum power density peak for sPBI/AFT-10 met the figure of 0.42 W·cm~(-2) at 160 °C (in dry conditions) under atmospheric pressure with 1.5 and 2.5 stoichiometric flow rates of H_2/air. These results affirmed the probable fitting of sPBI/AFT composite for HT-PEMFC applications.

In our calculation we include complete contribution from the full set of t-channel, u-channel and s-channel Feynman diagrams, and corresponding interferences as well as NLO QCD and EW corrections.
The effects of vegetation restoration strategies and seasons on soil enzyme activities in the Karst landscapes of Yunnan,southwest China

Soil enzymes play a vital role in biogeochemical cycling and ecosystem functions.In this study,we examined the response of six soil enzymes to changes in physicochemical properties resulting from changes in season and vegetation and geological conditions.Catalase,urease,acid phosphatase,invertase,amylase,and cellulase not only promote carbon,nitrogen,and phosphorus cycling,but also participate in the decomposition of harmful substances.Thirty-six soil samples were collected from karst and non-karst areas in two different seasons and from three different types of vegetation in Yunnan province,southwest China.Both vegetation types and season had significant effects on soil physicochemical properties and enzyme activities.In the same plot,soil water content,electrical conductivity,organic carbon,total nitrogen,and total phosphorus increased in the rainy season,indicating enhanced microbial metabolic activity.With the exception of urease activity,the remaining five enzymes showed higher activity in the rainy season.Changes in activities between the two seasons were significant in all samples.In the same season,activity levels of soil enzymes were higher in karst areas than in non-karst areas,and higher in natural forest than in artificial forests.The transformative abilities of soil elements are higher in karst areas than in non-karst areas,and higher in natural forests than in artificial forests.Correlation analysis showed that the activities of the six enzymes correlated significantly;however,soil physical and chemical indices,such as organic matter,pH,and moisture,which are essential for enzyme activity,differed by season.Redundancy analysis also revealed that the main factors influencing enzyme activity differed between the two seasons.The results from this study provide a theoretical basis for further research on the restoration of natural ecological systems in karst landscapes.
Soil respiration in paludified forests of European Russia

Soil respiration studies in paludified forests of the European part of Russia are quite rare in comparison with those of open peat bogs,which make long-term observations in this region highly relevant.In this study,soil CO_2 emissions were measured by the close chamber method in different microlandscapes of paludified forests.For four summer seasons with different environments,soil respiration ranged from 1078 to 248 mg CO_2 m~(-2) h~(-1) in a paludified spruce forest site with coarse woody debris to 659–820 mg CO_2 m~(-2) h~(-1) in a paludified boggy pine forest.The most intensive soil respiration was observed during the hot summer of 2013 and the lowest in the hot and humid summer of 2016.Annual total soil CO_2 emissions in paludified forests in 2015–2016 were approximately 2000–3000 g CO_2 m~(-2).During the year,the lowest CO_2 emission values were observed from November to April (14–84 mg CO_2 m~(-2) h~(-1)) and the maximum were in July and August (522–1205 mg CO_2 m~(-2) h~(-1)).The contributions of CO_2 emissions in the cold November–April period were 6–8.5%.The impacts of temperature on soil respiration were higher (r~2 = 0.45–0.57) than those of groundwater levels (r~2 = 0.17–0.49).Soil respiration in the paludified spruce forest and in the pine bog generally were higher than emissions from ecosystems with similar hydrothermal conditions in the boreal zone.
Wax deposition mechanisms and the effect of emulsions and carbon dioxide injection on wax deposition: Critical review

Wax deposition inside the tubing walls endures being a critical operational challenge faced by the petroleum industry. The build-up of wax deposits may lead to the increase of pumping power, as well as the decrease of flow rate or, even, to the total blockage, with production losses and high operational costs. The current paper is a critical review of the main deposition mechanisms involved in wax deposition. Most of wax deposition models regard molecular diffusion as the dominant wax deposition mechanism. However, there are other deposition mechanisms which can also play a role. As most oil fields produce water along with crude oil, the deposition process for oil-water emulsions has also been investigated. Furthermore, carbon dioxide injection effects upon wax appearance temperature along its current applications onto wells have been reviewed. Having a total awareness of the wax deposition mechanisms background is the key factor to prevent the wax precipitation and control the deposition of solid wax crystals.
Characteristics of subsurface mesoscale eddies in the northwestern tropical Pacific Ocean from an eddy-resolving model

Subsurface eddies (SSEs) are common features of the ocean interior. They are particularly abundant in oceanic basins and the vicinity of major intermediate water outflows. They are responsible for subsurface transport of mass, heat, and salt. Analysis of high-resolution general circulation model data has revealed the existence of subsurface anticyclonic eddies (SSAEs) and subsurface cyclonic eddies (SSCEs) in the northwestern tropical Pacific Ocean. SSEs are abundant east of the Philippines (0°-22°N, 120°E-140°E) and in latitude bands between 9°N-17°N east of 140°E. The composite structure of SSEs was investigated. SSEs had a core at about 400-m water depth and their maximum meridional velocity exceeded 10 cm/s. They exhibited two cores with different salinity polarities in the surface and subsurface. Additionally, spatial distributions of heat transport induced by SSEs in the northwestern tropical Pacific were presented for the first time. A net equatorward heat flux toward a temperature up-gradient was observed. The analysis of eddy-mean flow interactions revealed that the circulation is baroclinically and barotropically unstable at different depths and to differing degrees. The energy conversions suggest that both barotropic and baroclinic instabilities are responsible for SSE generation east of the Philippines, whereas baroclinic instability caused by a horizontal density gradient and vertical eddy heat flux are important between 9°N and 17°N east of 140°E. Meridional movement of the north equatorial current and the north equatorial undercurrent can contribute to SSE generation in our study region.

Critical review of recent development in fiber reinforced adobe bricks for sustainable construction

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of research on the utilization of fibers(predominantly derived from waste materials)as reinforcement in adobe brick production.Recycling of these wastes provides sustainable construction materials and helps to protect the environment.Specimen preparation and test procedures are outlined.The effects of addition of these wastes on the physical and mechanical properties of adobe bricks as presented in the literature, are investigated.The main results for each additive are presented and discussed.It is concluded that improved adobe brick properties can be expected with the addition of combination of waste additives.The use of waste materials in the construction industry is generally of interest and useful for engineers and designers seeking sustainable solutions in construction.It is also of interest to researchers actively seeking to develop methodical approaches to quantifying, optimising and testing the performance in use of such waste material additives.
Ground state cooling of magnomechanical resonator in PT-symmetric cavity magnomechanical system at room temperature

We propose to realize the ground state cooling of magnomechanical resonator in a parity-time(PT)-symmetric cavity magnomechanical system composed of a loss ferromagnetic sphere and a gain microwave cavity.In the scheme,the magnomechanical resonator can be cooled close to its ground state via the magnomechanical interaction,and it is found that the cooling effect in PT-symmetric system is much higher than that in non-PT-symmetric system.Resorting to the magnetic force noise spectrum,we investigate the final mean phonon number with experimentally feasible parameters and find surprisingly that the ground state cooling of magnomechanical resonator can be directly achieved at room temperature.Furthermore,we also illustrate that the ground state cooling can be flexibly controlled via the external magnetic field.
On plane Λ-fractional linear elasticity theory

Non-local plane elasticity problems are discussed in the context of Λ-fractional linear elasticity theory. Adapting the Λ-fractional derivative along with the Λ-fractional space, where geometry and mechanics are valid in the conventional way, non-local plane elasticity problems are solved with the help of biharmonic functions. Then, the results are transferred into the initial plane. Applications are presented to homogeneous and the fractional beam bending problem.
Machine learning for detecting mesial temporal lobe epilepsy by structural and functional neuroimaging

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy(mTLE),the most common type of focal epilepsy,is associated with functional and structural brain alterations.Machine learning(ML)techniques have been successfully used in discriminating mTLE from healthy controls.However,either functional or structural neuroimaging data are mostly used separately as input,and the opportunity to combine both has not been exploited yet.We conducted a multimodal ML study based on functional and structural neuroimaging measures.We enrolled 37 patients with left mTLE,37 patients with right mTLE,and 74 healthy controls and trained a support vector ML model to distinguish them by using each measure and the combinations of the measures.For each single measure,we obtained a mean accuracy of 74% and 69% for discriminating left mTLE and right mTLE from controls,respectively,and 64% when all patients were combined.We achieved an accuracy of 78% by integrating functional data and 79% by integrating structural data for left mTLE,and the highest accuracy of 84% was obtained when all functional and structural measures were combined.These findings suggest that combining multimodal measures within a single model is a promising direction for improving the classification of individual patients with mTLE.
