摘要:
Karst is a unique landform that is widely distributed across the globe and holds significant importance for both the ecological environment and ecosystem. This paper focuses on a typical karst area in Guizhou Province, China, to investigate the threshold of key factors contributing to rocky desertification through quantitative analysis. Utilising the Logistic regression model, the thresholds of these key factors in the evolution of rocky desertification within the study area were successfully calculated and categorised. The findings indicate that vegetation cover thresholds are 35.6%, 52.5%, and 76.6%; slope thresholds are 35°, 25.7°, and 13.8°; land reclamation rates are 0.85, 0.65, and 0.45; and artificial disturbance indices are 0.95, 0.65, and 0.55. These results correspond to three categories: mild threshold, moderate threshold, and intense threshold, which quantify the degree of rocky desertification evolution in karst areas.

摘要:
This research aims to investigate whether fiscal efficiency promotes green total factor productivity (GTFP) in China. To this end, we used multi-source data and adopted productivity index approaches to measure GTFP and fiscal efficiency scores of 284 Chinese cities and then applied a spatial econometric model to examine the impact of fiscal efficiency on GTFP. The main findings of this study are as follows: (1) Overall GTFP scores showed an N-shaped trend during the sample period. Specifically, they first rose, then decreased, and finally went up. (2) The dynamic average fiscal efficiency scores of Chinese cities exhibited an upward trend with fluctuations. The spatial distribution of the fiscal efficiency scores of 284 cities showed that overall the eastern and central cities had the highest scores, followed by the western and northeastern cities. (3) The results of the spatial lag panel data model revealed that the spatially lagged term of GTFP was significantly positive, indicating that spatial spillovers of GTFP could not be ignored. Otherwise, it may lead to biased conclusions. It implies that improvements in the GTFP of neighboring cities contribute to promoting the GTFP growth of the own city. Moreover, the impact of fiscal efficiency on GTFP was verified to be significant and positive, indicating that fiscal efficiency improvement could significantly promote China's high-quality development measured by GTFP. In addition, increases in urbanization level, economic level, education level, industrial structure, and innovation level had positive effects on GTFP, while there was a U-shaped relationship between environmental regulation and GTFP. Last, several tailored policy recommendations were proposed.
摘要:
Stroke is a leading cause of premature death worldwide. Spatial-temporal characteristics are important for evidence-based stroke care planning and resource allocation. However, long-term global variations of stroke are still lacking. To identify the characteristics of the global spatial distribution of age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) due to stroke during 2000–2021, thereby informing the efficient allocation of global health care resources. Based on age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) due to stroke from the Global Health Estimates database, we analyzed stroke variation from 2000 to 2021 in 183 countries worldwide using Moran’s I, Getis-Ord Gi*, and Standard Deviation Ellipse. We stratified the 183 countries into different income groups according to World Bank classification to identify the socioeconomic influence on stroke mortality. The result showed that ① From 2000 to 2021, the number of stroke deaths increased worldwide, but the AMSR due to stroke showed a downward trend; ② The spatial distribution of the global AMSR due to stroke varies across geographic regions. with the highest in Asia and southern Africa, and the lowest in Europe and North America; ③ The spatial pattern of hot and cold spots of AMSR due to stroke remained relatively stable from 2000 to 2021, with the greatest changes in Africa and Asia; ④ Generally, countries belong to higher economic groups have lower stroke mortality rate, and this pattern persisted throughout the study period. Our findings provide evidence on spatial variations of stroke mortality worldwide over 20 years, and are informative on evidence-based allocation of medical resources globally. Not applicable.

摘要:
SDG15 emphasizes the criticality of ecosystem sustainability. The interplay between vegetation and the environment plays a crucial role in maintaining ecological equilibrium. The Mid-Spine Belt of Beautiful China (MSBBC), a novel geographical designation, encompasses agro-pastoral production and living spaces in China. However, vegetation dynamics in the area remain incompletely characterized. Therefore, this study investigated spatiotemporal variations of NDVI in MSBBC from 2000 to 2022, introducing the V -statistic to simulate durations of future vegetation trends. Since 2000, a majority of the MSBBC has experienced vegetation improvement, with significant enhancement observed in 77.34% of the area. This trend is primarily driven by increased precipitation and wind speed under climate warming, coupled with increased afforestation efforts and reduced livestock populations. Conversely, areas presenting significant vegetation degradation account for only 1.07% of the total, mainly due to urbanization and economic progress, partially explained by decreased sunshine duration and relative humidity. Evidently, China’s long-standing commitment to environmental preservation and ecological restoration has greatly mitigated degradation. Importantly, vegetation greening is projected to stagnate over the next decade. These findings deepen our understanding of ecosystem enhancement influenced by climatic and anthropogenic factors and provide a valuable reference for devising innovative approaches to remote sensing time series predictions.
摘要:
The accurate estimation of forest aboveground biomass is of great significance for forest management and carbon balance monitoring. Remote sensing instruments have been widely applied in forest parameters inversion with wide coverage and high spatiotemporal resolution. In this paper, the capability of different remote-sensed imagery was investigated, including multispectral images (GaoFen-6, Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8) and various SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data (GaoFen-3, Sentinel-1, ALOS-2), in aboveground forest biomass estimation. In particular, based on the forest inventory data of Hangzhou in China, the Random Forest (RF), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Convolutional Neural Networks Long Short-Term Memory Networks (CNN-LSTM) algorithms were deployed to construct the forest biomass estimation models, respectively. The estimate accuracies were evaluated under the different configurations of images and methods. The results show that for the SAR data, ALOS-2 has a higher biomass estimation accuracy than the GaoFen-3 and Sentinel-1. Moreover, the GaoFen-6 data is slightly worse than Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 optical data in biomass estimation. In contrast with the single source, integrating multisource data can effectively enhance accuracy, with improvements ranging from 5% to 10%. The CNN-LSTM generally performs better than CNN and RF, regardless of the data used. The combination of CNN-LSTM and multisource data provided the best results in this case and can achieve the maximum R2 value of up to 0.74. It was found that the majority of the biomass values in the study area in 2018 ranged from 60 to 90 Mg/ha, with an average value of 64.20 Mg/ha.

摘要:
Identifying ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) metamorphism in granulite-facies metamorphic terrains and determining its pressure-temperature-time (P-T-t) paths are crucial steps toward elucidating the anomalously hot geodynamic evolution process. This study presents the inaugural identification of chloritized sapphirine-bearing granulites in the Helanshan Complex, located in the western segment of the Khondalite Belt, North China Craton. Three stages of metamorphic evolution were identified based on petrographic analyses, mineral chemistry, and phase equilibrium modelling: the pre-Tmax stage involves the presence of rutile-stable phase assemblage, wherein rutile is partially substituted by ilmenite; the Tmax stage involves the assemblage of garnet + plagioclase + K-feldspar + sillimanite + spinel ± sapphirine + quartz + ilmenite + melt, as evidenced by microscale (<5 μm) blebs of variably chloritized sapphirine within spinel; and the retrograde cooling stage features the solidus assemblage of garnet + plagioclase + biotite + K-feldspar + sillimanite + cordierite + quartz + ilmenite + melt. Phase equilibrium modelling indicates Tmax conditions of 958–1055 °C and 6.4–7.8 kbar, suggesting UHT conditions accompanied by a high geothermal gradient of approximately 150 °C/kbar. Furthermore, a clockwise P-T trajectory was established, involving pre-Tmax decompression and post-Tmax near-isobaric cooling. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) zircon and monazite U-Pb dating of UHT pelitic granulites produced ages clustering around 1.91 Ga, marking the era of UHT metamorphism within the Helanshan Complex. This discovery broadens the scope of UHT metamorphism and indicates that the entire Khondalite Belt experienced a regional UHT metamorphic event during 1.93–1.91 Ga, which was likely induced by an initial radiogenic heating synergy followed by an augmented mantle heat flux.
