Impact of time lags on diurnal estimates of canopy transpiration and canopy conductance from sap-flow measurements of Populus cathayana in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

Recently, canopy transpiration （Ec） has been often estimated by xylem sap-flow measurements. However, there is a significant time lag between sap flow measured at the base of the stem and canopy transpiration due to the capacitive exchange between the transpiration stream and stem water storage. Significant errors will be introduced in canopy conductance （gc） and canopy transpiration estimation if the time lag is neglected. In this study, a cross-correlation analysis was used to quantify the time lag, and the sap flowbased transpiration was measured to pararneterize Jarvistype models of gc and thus to simulate Ec of Populus cathayana using the Penman-Monteith equation. The results indicate that solar radiation （Rs） and vapor pressure deficit （VPD） are not fully coincident with sap flow and have an obvious lag effect; the sap flow lags behind Rs and precedes VPD, and there is a 1-h time shift between Eo and sap flow in the 30-min interval data set. A parameterized Jarvis-type gc model is suitable to predict P. cathayana transpiration and explains more than 80% of the variation observed in go, and the relative error was less than 25%, which shows a preferable simulation effect. The root mean square error （RMSEs） between the predicted and measured Ec were 1.91×10^-3 （with the time lag） and 3.12×10^-3cm h^-1 （without the time lag）. More importantly, Ec simulation precision that incorporates time lag is improved by 6% compared to the results without the time lag, with the mean relative error （MRE） of only 8.32% and the mean absolute error （MAE） of 1.48 × 10^-3 cm h^-1.

Real-time crash prediction on freeways using data mining and emerging techniques

Recent advances in intelligent transportation system allow traffic safety studies to extend from historic data-based analyses to real-time applications. The study presents a new method to predict crash likelihood with traffic data collected by discrete loop detectors as well as the web-crawl weather data. Matched case-control method and support vector machines （SVMs） technique were employed to identify the risk status. The adaptive synthetic over-sampling technique was applied to solve the imbalanced dataset issues. Random forest technique was applied to select the contributing factors and avoid the over-fitting issues. The results indicate that the SVMs classifier could successfully classify 76.32% of the crashes on the test dataset and 87.52% of the crashes on the overall dataset, which were relatively satisfactory compared with the results of the previous studies. Compared with the SVMs classifier without the data, the SVMs classifier with the web-crawl weather data increased the crash prediction accuracy by 1.32% and decreased the false alarm rate by 1.72%, showing the potential value of the massive web weather data. Mean impact value method was employed to evaluate the variable effects, and the results are identical with the results of most of previous studies. The emerging technique based on the discrete traffic data and web weather data proves to be more applicable on real- time safety management on freeways.

Stratigraphical Time——Correlation and Mass Extinction Event Near Permian——Triassic Boundary in South China

Shaw's method used to correlate 40 sections across the Permo-Triassic boundary in South China is applied in the paper. Two steps are adopted to get an Integral Composite Section (ICS) by synthesizing these data : First , South China is divided into five areas and composite section developed for each area . Then the second step . the Changxing composite section is regarded as a composite standard (CSRS) while the ICS is produced by matching the CSRS with composite sections of the other areas. Three biozones in the Changxingian and two biozones in the Griesbachian can be discerned on the basis of computing Z values in the ICS. These biozones are marked by the Z values which quantitatively represent their time ranges ; therefore , they may increase accuracy of stratigraphic time correlation . The mass extinction at the end of the Permian is an abrupt event that is supported by the relative rate of extinction near the P/T boundary . About 90% of invertebrate species died out by the end of the Permian . The duration of the mass extinction is rather short ,approximately 0.018Ma .

Characterizing long-term forest disturbance history and its drivers in the Ning-Zhen Mountains, Jiangsu Province of eastern China using yearly Landsat observations (1987–2011)

Forest losses or gains have long been recognized as critical processes modulating the carbon flux between the biosphere and the atmosphere. Timely, accurate and spatially explicit information on forest disturbance and recovery history is required for assessing the effectiveness of existing forest management. The major objectives of our research focused on testing the mapping efficacy of the vegetation change tracker （VCT） model over a forested area in China. We used a new version of VCT algorithm built upon the Landsat time series stacks （LTSS）. The LTSS consisted of yearly image acquisitions to map forest disturbance history from 1987 to 2011 over the Ning-Zhen Mountains, Jiangsu Province of east China. The LTSS consisted of TM and ETM＋ scenes with different projec- tions due to distinct data sources （Beijing remote sensing ground station and the USGS EROS Center）. The valida- tion results of the disturbance year maps showed that most spatial agreement measures ranged from 70 to 86 %, comparable with the VCT accuracies reported for many places in USA. Very low accuracies were identified in 1995 （38.3 %） and 1992 （56.2 %） in the current analysis. These resulted from the insensitivity of the VCT algorithm to detect low intensity disturbances and also from the mis- registration errors of the image pairs. Major forest distur- bance types existing in our study area were identified as agricultural expansion （39.8 %）, urbanization （24.9 %）, forest management practice （19.3 %）, and mining （12.8 %）. In general, there was a gradual decreasing trend in forest cover throughout this region, caused principally by China＇s economic, demographic, environmental and political policies and decisions, as well as some weather events. While VCT has largely been used to assess long term changes and trends in the USA, it has great potential for assessing landscape level change elsewhere throughout the world.

2-(2-Benzofuranyl)-2-imidazoline treatment within 5 hours after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion protects the brain

We previously demonstrated that administering 2-（2-benzofuranyl）-2-imidazolin（2-BFI）, an imidazoline I2 receptor agonist, immediately after ischemia onset can protect the brain from ischemic insult. However, immediate administration after stroke is difficult to realize in the clinic. Thus, the therapeutic time window of 2-BFI should be determined. Sprague-Dawley rats provided by Wenzhou Medical University in China received right middle cerebral artery occlusion for 120 minutes, and were treated with 2-BFI（3 mg/kg） through the caudal vein at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 hours after reperfusion. Neurological function was assessed using the Longa＇s method. Infarct volume was measured by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride assay. Morphological changes in the cortical penumbra were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining under transmission electron microscopy. The apoptosis levels in the ipsilateral cortex were examined with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling（TUNEL） assay. The protein expression of Bcl-2 and BAX was detected using immunohistochemistry. We found the following： Treatment with 2-BFI within 5 hours after reperfusion obviously improved neurological function. Administering 2-BFI within 9 hours after ischemia/reperfusion decreased infarct volume and alleviated apoptosis. 2-BFI administration at different time points after reperfusion alleviated the pathological damage of the ischemic penumbra and reduced the number of apoptotic neurons, but the protective effect was more obvious when administered within 5 hours. Administration of 2-BFI within 5 hours after reperfusion remarkably increased Bcl-2 expression and decreased BAX expression. To conclude, 2-BFI shows potent neuroprotective effects when administered within 5 hours after reperfusion, seemingly by up-regulating Bcl-2 and down-regulating BAX expression. The time window provided clinical potential for ischemic stroke by 2-BFI.

Decentralized Stabilization of Large-scale Uncertain Systems with State-Delays——LMIs Approach

This paper deals with the problem of decentralized robustcontrol for a class of interconnected uncertain systemswith state delays.The parameter uncertainties are un-known but norm-bounded.A new sufficient condition isobtained for each subsystem and overall system to be sta-bilizable via linear memoryless state feedback robust de-centralized controllers.The results depend on the size of the delays and are given in terms of linear matrix ine-qualities,so they are less conservative than those of delay-independent.Moreover,matching condition is not a necessary condition.Finally,an example is presented to illustrative the effectiveness of the proposed method.

新时代婚姻家庭中女性权益保护问题探析

家庭矛盾是引发社会问题不容忽视的原因。市场经济条件下,平等、幸福、和谐的家庭氛围在很大程度上取决于家庭成员,特别是夫妻双方的经济收入与社会地位。值得关注的是,目前我国婚姻家庭中全职主妇占已婚女性人口的比例呈上升态势,更多具有高学历的女性怀孕生子后做起了"全职妈妈"。但在我国当前的社会背景下,专职家庭主妇却是一个高风险的"职业"。由于缺乏独立的经济来源与社会保障,她们经常面临自身权益受到侵害的情况。因此,完善法律及相关制度,积极保护新时代婚姻家庭中女性的合法权益迫在眉睫。

Effect of cooling time t8/5 on microstructure and toughness of Nb-Ti- Mo microalloyed C-Mn steel

In order to further optimize welding process of Nb-Ti-Mo microalloyed steel, welding thermal cycles on coarse-grained heat-affected zone （CGHAZ） of welded joints were simulated using Gleeble 1500. The microstructure and low-temperature impact fracture were investigated using a scanning electron microscope and a pendulum impact machine, respectively. Moreover, the relationship between cooling time ts/5 and the microstructure of CGHAZ was discussed, and the effect of microstructure on impact toughness was also studied. As cooling time increased, martensite fraction decreased from 97.8% （3 s） to 3.0% （60 s）. The fraction of martensite/austenite （M/A） constituent increased from 2.2% （3 s） to 39.0% （60 s）, its shape changed from granular to strip, and the maximum length increased from 2.4 μm （3 s） to 7.0 μm （60 s）. As cooling time increased, the prior austenite grain size increased from 34.0 μm （3 s） to 49.0 gm （60 s）, the impact absorption energy reduced from 101.8 J （5 s） to 7.2 J （60 s）, and the fracture mechanism changed from quasi-cleavage fracture to cleavage fracture. The decreased toughness of CGHAZ was due to the reduction of lath martensite-content, coarsening of original austenite grain, and increase and coarsening of M/A constituent. The heat input was controlled under 7 kJ cm-1 during actual welding for these steels.

全职主妇工作意愿的影响因素分析及代际比较

在相关理论综述的基础上,对新生代全职主妇和老一辈全职主妇的工作意愿进行比较分析发现,女性主义意识对全职主妇的工作意愿有着重要的促进作用,其中老一辈全职主妇的工作意愿受现代意识影响显著,新生代全职主妇的工作意愿受个体意识影响显著。劳动力市场歧视理论并未能对全职主妇的工作意愿进行较好的解释,但社会脱离理论对于全职主妇工作意愿的流失给出了较好的解答,即时间可以消磨全职主妇的工作意愿。家庭—工作冲突理论并没有很好地解释全职主妇的工作意愿,但积极溢出理论很好地阐释了新生代全职主妇的家庭幸福感可以显著促进其工作意愿。另外,非正式系统的经济支持对新生代全职主妇的工作意愿有着重要的消解作用,而正式系统的经济支持强化了老一辈全职主妇的工作愿望。

Assessing the effectiveness of quarantine measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile using Bayesian structural time series models

Background:With the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic,all existing health protocols were tested under the worst health crisis humanity has experienced since the Black Death in the 14th century.Countries in Latin America have been the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic,with more than 1.5 million people killed.Worldwide health measures have included quarantines,border closures,social distancing,and mask use,among others.In particular,Chile implemented total or partial quarantine measures depending on the number of infections in each region of the country.Therefore,it is necessary to study the effectiveness of these quarantines in relation to the public health measures implemented by government entities at the national level.Objective:The main objective of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of national-and region-level quarantines in Chile during the pandemic based on information published by the Chilean Ministry of Health,and answers to the following question are sought:Were quarantine measures in Chile effective during the COVID-19 pandemic?Methods:The causal effect between the rates of COVID-19 infections and the population rates in Phase 1 and Phase 2 quarantines in the period from March 2020 to March 2021 in different regions of Chile were evaluated using intervention analyses obtained through Bayesian structural time series models.In addition,the Kendall correlation coefficient obtained through the copula approach was used to evaluate the comovement between these rates.Results:In 75%of the Chilean regions under study(12 regions out of a total of 16),an effective Phase 1 quarantine,which was implemented to control and reduce the number of cases of COVID-19 infection,was observed.The main regions that experienced a decrease in cases were those located in the north and center of Chile.Regarding Phase 2,the COVID-19 pandemic was effectively managed in 31%(5 out of 16)of the regions.In the southcentral and extreme southern regions of Chile,the effectiveness of these phases was null.Conclusion:The findings indicate that in the northern and central regions of Chile,the Phase 1 quarantine application period was an effective strategy to prevent an increase in COVID-19 infections.The same observation was made with respect to Phase 2,which was effective in five regions of northern Chile;in the rest of the regions,the effectiveness of these phases was weak or null.
