A comparative analysis of ecosystem service responses to land use scenarios, incorporating adaptive valuation coefficients, can reveal actionable pathways to reconcile sustainable development and ecological conservation in mountainous regions. In this study, the ecosystem service value(ESV) dynamics in the Hunan–Jiangxi Border Region(HJBR), which is a representative old revolutionary base with a relatively undeveloped economy, were investigated by integrating historical land use data analysis from 2000 to 2020 and adopting patch-generating land use simulation(PLUS) modelling. Three policy-responsive scenarios, namely, natural growth(NGS), farmland protection(FPS), and ecological protection(EPS), were systematically developed to project ESV variations for 2030 and 2040. Our analysis revealed that from 2000 to 2020, urban sprawl and water body expansion occurred at the expense of forestland, cultivated land, and grassland, yet yield-driven productivity improvements increased the ESV by 227.30%(equivalent to ¥250.0 billion). By 2040, the NGS achieves the greatest ESV increase(¥189.895 billion) while fully accommodating urban land demand;the FPS yields the smallest ESV increase(¥148.169 billion), with the EPS occupying an intermediate position(¥182.207 billion). Climate regulation and hydrological services dominate ecological functions, collectively exceeding 49% across all the scenarios and periods. By 2040, most service functions exhibit growth trends except for a 0.30% water supply decline under the FPS, whereas the EPS demonstrates balanced development through multidimensional service enhancements. These findings underscore the necessity of integrating ecological safeguards into land use planning frameworks to ensure sustainable regional development.展开更多

摘要Numerous economically underdeveloped and ecologically fragile areas in southern China's mountainous regions face increasing challenges in achieving sustainable development. A comparative analysis of ecosystem service responses to land use scenarios, incorporating adaptive valuation coefficients, can reveal actionable pathways to reconcile sustainable development and ecological conservation in mountainous regions. In this study, the ecosystem service value(ESV) dynamics in the Hunan–Jiangxi Border Region(HJBR), which is a representative old revolutionary base with a relatively undeveloped economy, were investigated by integrating historical land use data analysis from 2000 to 2020 and adopting patch-generating land use simulation(PLUS) modelling. Three policy-responsive scenarios, namely, natural growth(NGS), farmland protection(FPS), and ecological protection(EPS), were systematically developed to project ESV variations for 2030 and 2040. Our analysis revealed that from 2000 to 2020, urban sprawl and water body expansion occurred at the expense of forestland, cultivated land, and grassland, yet yield-driven productivity improvements increased the ESV by 227.30%(equivalent to ¥250.0 billion). By 2040, the NGS achieves the greatest ESV increase(¥189.895 billion) while fully accommodating urban land demand;the FPS yields the smallest ESV increase(¥148.169 billion), with the EPS occupying an intermediate position(¥182.207 billion). Climate regulation and hydrological services dominate ecological functions, collectively exceeding 49% across all the scenarios and periods. By 2040, most service functions exhibit growth trends except for a 0.30% water supply decline under the FPS, whereas the EPS demonstrates balanced development through multidimensional service enhancements. These findings underscore the necessity of integrating ecological safeguards into land use planning frameworks to ensure sustainable regional development.

摘要The global expansion of competence-based social work education has carried with it deeply embedded Western individualist assumptions,which clash with the relational ontologies of non-Western societies.This paper argues that genuine indigenization in Chinese social work education demands not merely the addition of cultural content to imported frameworks,but a fundamental reconceptualization of what it means to be a competent practitioner.Drawing upon Chinese Confucian ethics of the relational self and the Western tradition of reflective practice,this conceptual paper proposes a“relational-reflective competence”framework comprising four interconnected dimensions:ethical presence,contextualized discretion,integrative embodied knowing,and symbiotic growth.The framework seeks to shift the educational paradigm from the acquisition of demonstrable skills to the cultivation of the practitioner as a moral and relational subject.The paper discusses the macro-level implications of this framework for curriculum redesign,pedagogical transformation,and the educator’s role,while also critically reflecting on the tensions between this ideal and institutional realities.It concludes that such a cultural-epistemological grounding is essential not only for the relevance of Chinese social work education but also for its potential to foster a more pluralistic global social work knowledge base by drawing on Eastern epistemological traditions.

摘要The unique regulatory effect of pH on electrostatic interactions offers a powerful approach for manipulating and separating singlestranded DNA(ssDNA)molecules.In this study,we employ Langevin dynamics simulations to investigate the translocation dynamics of two ssDNAs,poly(dA)and poly(dT),through a silicon nitride nanopore under acidic conditions.The key distinction between the two chains is their different pH-dependent protonation.At low pH,the highly protonated adenine bases experience repulsive interactions from the similarly protonated nanopore surface and the retarding force from the external voltage,whereas neutral thymine bases do not.Consequently,compared to poly(dT),poly(dA)exhibits a lower capture probability and slower translocation speed under strongly acidic conditions.However,the difference in the translocation behaviors between the two chains gradually diminishes as the pH increases.Based on their distinct pH-dependent behaviors,poly(dA)and poly(dT)of identical length can be successfully separated through the translocation strategy at low pH,even when they are initially mixed on the same side of the nanopore.
摘要Missing data remain a persistent challenge in statistical analysis and machine learning because many predictive methods require complete observations.Generative Adversarial Imputation Networks(GAIN)offer a flexible deep-learning approach for missing value imputation,but their practical use is limited by convergence instability,sensitivity to hyperparameter selection,and dependence on outdated software implementations.To address these limitations,we propose Enhanced Generative Adversarial Imputation Networks(EGAIN),a modernized extension of GAIN implemented in TensorFlow 2.x.EGAIN incorporates convolution-based generator and discriminator networks,a channel-stacked representation of the data and mask,and checkpoint-based training diagnostics to improve stability and usability.EGAIN was evaluated on five benchmark datasets under multiple Missing Completely At Random(MCAR)settings and compared with the original GAIN implementation and median imputation.Across most evaluated conditions,EGAIN achieved lower root mean squared error(RMSE)and showed greater robustness,particularly when missingness was concentrated in a subset of variables.These results indicate that EGAIN provides a more stable and reproducible framework for missing data imputation in tabular datasets.

摘要Values of individuals and organizations involved in decision-making processes form the basis for prioritizing outcomes in water governance.The novelty of this study lies in applying values to a specific decision-making context.It aims to assess the prioritized water governance outcomes and the underlying value systems shaping the actions of the primary water utility responsible for water governance in Delhi,the Delhi Jal Board(DJB).The paper will critically examine the policies and acts of the DJB that drive water governance in Delhi at present,utilizing a values-based framework in conjunction with secondary literature and expert interviews,to draw a picture of the values reflected.The study does not substantiate the notion of economic values dominating the water-related deci-sions;rather,recent policy guidelines indicate prioritization of equitable and fair distribution of water.Findings of this paper show that making the values explicit is largely disregarded in formulating water acts and policies,and values are never elucidated in the public domain,doing which can encourage water policies and practices that are socially,economically,and ecologically viable in the long run.It is expected that this paper will generate a discussion on water values being an integral part of water governance discourses.
摘要Human well-being and livelihoods depend on natural ecosystem services(ESs).Following the increment of population,ESs have been deteriorated over time.Ultimately,land use/land cover(LULC)changes have a profound impact on the change of ecosystem.The primary goal of this study is to determine the impacts of LULC changes on ecosystem service values(ESVs)in the upper Gilgel Abbay watershed,Ethiopia.Changes in LULC types were studied using three Landsat images representing 1986,2003,and 2021.The Landsat images were classified using a supervised image classification technique in Earth Resources Data Analysis System(ERDAS)Imagine 2014.We classified ESs in this study into four categories(including provisioning,regulating,supporting,and cultural services)based on global ES classification scheme.The adjusted ESV coefficient benefit approach was employed to measure the impacts of LULC changes on ESVs.Five LULC types were identified in this study,including cultivated land,forest,shrubland,grassland,and water body.The result revealed that the area of cultivated land accounted for 64.50%,71.50%,and 61.50%of the total area in 1986,2003,and 2021,respectively.The percentage of the total area covered by forest was 9.50%,5.90%,and 14.80%in 1986,2003,and 2021,respectively.Result revealed that the total ESV decreased from 7.42×107 to 6.44×107 USD between 1986 and 2003.This is due to the expansion of cultivated land at the expense of forest and shrubland.However,the total ESV increased from 6.44×107 to 7.76×107 USD during 2003-2021,because of the increment of forest and shrubland.The expansion of cultivated land and the reductions of forest and shrubland reduced most individual ESs during 1986-2003.Nevertheless,the increase in forest and shrubland at the expense of cultivated land enhanced many ESs during 2003-2021.Therefore,the findings suggest that appropriate land use practices should be scaled-up to sustainably maintain ESs.

摘要Herein,the association between the dynamic adsorption capacity of toluene and several important characteristic values on activated carbon(AC)samples was investigated by multidimensional linear regression.Among the characteristic values,the carbon tetrachloride(CTC)adsorption value has demonstrated relatively stronger correlation with the toluene adsorption capacity on AC sampleswith diverse sources and forms,particularly in exposure to high-concentration toluene.Notably,the relevance of the toluene adsorption capacity to the CTC value could also be extended to a series of other porous adsorbents,which proved the wide applicability of CTC value in characterizing the adsorption behaviors.Based on these results,a mathematical and visual model was then established to predict the toluene adsorption saturation under different conditions(inlet concentration,adsorption time,initial CTC value,etc.)on diverse AC samples,of which the accuracy has later been verified by experimental data.As such,a fast and accurate estimation of the adsorption behaviors over AC samples,and possibly other porous adsorbents,was realized.

摘要Medical isotopes are the foundation material for nuclear medicine and are primarily produced through in-reactor irradia-tion.Neutron spectrum regulation is the main technical approach for enhancing the production of medical isotopes,and it requires determining the optimal neutron spectrum and quantifying the values of neutrons in different energy regions.We calculated the neutron energy region values for 20 medical isotopes(14C,32P,47Sc,60Co,64Cu,67Cu,89Sr,90Y,99Mo,125I,131I,153Sm,161Tb,166Ho,177Lu,186Re,188Re,92Ir,225Ac,and 252Cf).The entire energy range was divided into 238 energy regions to improve the energy spectrum resolution,and both fast and thermal reactors were simulated to enhance universal applicability.A dataset of neutron energy region values across the entire energy range was built,which identifies the positive and negative-energy regions and guides the neutron spectrum regulation process during in-reactor medical isotope produc-tion.We conducted neutron spectrum regulation based on this dataset,which effectively improved the production efficiency of medical isotopes and demonstrated the correctness and feasibility of the dataset.

摘要Background:Understanding the factors that influence adolescent psychological resilience is critical for promoting mental health.This study explores the impact and mechanism of labor values on adolescent psychological resilience from the perspective of emotion regulation theory.Methods:This study conducted an in-depth analysis using the Labor Value Scale on 2691 elementary school upper-grade students,middle school students,and high school students.Results:The results show that:(1)labor values can positively predict adolescents’mental resilience;(2)cognitive reappraisal and expression inhibition play a partial mediating role in the relationship between labor values and adolescents’psychological resilience.Among them,labor values can positively predict adolescents’mental resilience through positive cognitive reappraisal,and labor values can also predict adolescents’mental resilience through expression inhibition.Conclusion:Based on the theory of emotion regulation,this study explores the direct effect of labor values on mental resilience and the mediating effect of different strategies of emotion regulation.The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for improving the mental resilience of adolescents.
摘要The main purpose of this paper is to establish the distributional boundary values of functions in the weighted Hardy space,which improves the results of Carmichael in[4]and[8],where the weight function is linear.As our main result,we will prove that f(z)in H(ψ,Γ)has the Z′boundary value and can be expressed by the inverse Fourier transform of a distribution.Next,we will establish the S′boundary value under stronger assumptions and give more precise expression if f(z)also converges to U∈D′Lp(Rn),where 1≤p≤2.In addition,we will also study the inverse result,in which we will prove that f(z)is holomorphic on TΓ.

摘要Investigating the ecological impact of land use change in the context of the construction of national water network project is crucial,as it is imperative for achieving the sustainable development goals of the national water network and guaranteeing regional ecological stability.Using the Danjiangkou Reservoir Area(DRA),China as the study area,this paper first examined the spatiotemporal dynamics of natural landscape patterns and ecosystem service values(ESV)in the DRA from 2000 to 2018 and then investigated the spatial clustering characteristics of the ESV using spatial statistical analysis tools.Finally,the patch-generating land use simulation(PLUS)model was used to simulate the natural landscape and future changes in the ESV of the DRA from 2018 to 2028 under four different development scenarios:business as usual(BAU),economic development(ED),ecological protection(EP),and shoreline protection(SP).The results show that:during 2000-2018,the construction of water facilities had a significant impact on regional land use/land cover(LULC)change,with a 24830 ha increase in watershed area.ESV exhibited an increasing trend,with a significant and growing spatial clustering effect.The transformation of farmland to water bodies led to accelerated ESV growth,while the transformation of forest land to farmland led to a decrease in the ESV.Normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI)had the strongest effect on the ESV.ESV exhibited a continuous increase from 2018 to 2028 under all the simulation scenarios.The EP scenario had the greatest increase in ESV,while the ED scenario had the smallest increase.The findings suggest that projected land use patterns under different scenarios have varied impacts on ecosystem services(ESs)and that the management and planning of the DRA should balance social,economic,ecological,and security benefits.nomic,ecological,and security benefits.
