Aviation experts from the University of South Australia (UniSA) will work with their Chinese counterparts over the next two years to develop a sustainable aviation biofuel industry in both countries.
A third of China’s urban population at risk of city sinking, according to new satellite data. In an invited article for the journal Science, Manoochehr Shirzaei discusses how this phenomenon points to a global problem: Land is sinking everywhere.
The January 1, 2024, Noto Peninsula, Japan, Mw7.5 earthquake has undoubtedly been one of the most important earthquakes in 2024, causing widespread attention of the seismological community worldwide. In a recent Editorial of Earthquake Research Advances, titled “Tracing the pace of an approaching ‘seismic dragon king’: additional evidence for the Noto earthquake swarm and the 2024 Mw7.5 Noto earthquake”, Liu, Yue, and her coauthors comment on the predictability of this earthquake.
To become carbon neutral by 2060, as mandated by President Xi Jinping, China will have to build eight to 10 times more wind and solar power installations than currently exist in the country. Reaching carbon neutrality will also require major construction of transmission lines.
A study focusing on Northwest China's cotton fields by UNDP found persistent endosulfan residues from historical agricultural production despite its ban now.
Chinese citizens who rarely voice open criticism of their government reveal stronger negative views when they can answer questions anonymously, according to a new study published in The China Quarterly.
Background: The integrated health management system (IHMS), which unites all health care–related institutions under a health-centered organizational framework, is of great significance to China in promoting the hierarchical treatme...
PM2.5 (particulate matter less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter) is a critical pollutant affecting air quality and public health. In China, rapid industrialization and urbanization have led to severe PM2.5 pollution, posing significant health risks and environmental concerns.
The short video themed “Gamified couple at home” was considered as the most suitable one for wide dissemination because of its innovative style and potential effectiveness in changing behavioral intentions of cigarette gifting.
Researchers found that rainfall in southern China can worsen air pollution in the North China Plain by intensifying a weather pattern that traps pollutants.
This article reviews conservation measures taken in recent decade to protect waterbirds in China's coastal wetlands and provides recommendations for future conservation action from three aspects: policy and administration, habitat conservation and management, and multiparty participation.
Experts from Indiana University are available to comment on a variety of topics in the worlds of politics, finance, education and disaster response making headlines the week of Aug. 14, 2023.
A system of ancient ceramic water pipes, the oldest ever unearthed in China, shows that neolithic people were capable of complex engineering feats without the need for a centralised state authority, finds a new study by UCL researchers.
Legal restrictions placed on the amount of time young people in China can play video games may be less effective than originally thought, a new study has revealed.
China's rapid industrialization and economic growth have led to an increasing demand for energy, with coal being the primary source of power generation. As a result, China boasts the world's largest fleet of coal-fired power plants (CFPPs), contributing over 60% of its domestic electricity supply. However, the operation of these CFPPs has also resulted in significant air pollutant emissions, leading to adverse impacts on public health and the environment.
Photonic crystal structures have excellent light control properties and are hot topics in the field of photonics. For the preparation of photonic crystal structures with nanoscale three-dimensional spatial resolution inside the crystal, new femtosecond laser processing technologies are urgently needed. Scientists in China proposed a photonic crystal structure fabrication method based on nanoscale femtosecond laser multi-beam lithography. The technique will open possible ways to fabricate nanostructures for applications in optical communication and light manipulation.
It is widely believed that China’s socialist economy had relatively high rates of extreme poverty, while the capitalist reforms of the 1980s and 1990s delivered rapid progress, with extreme poverty declining from 88% in 1981 to zero by 2018.
This study is led by Prof. Yang Yang from Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology. when China pursues the carbon neutrality goal and the long-term air quality target, aerosol reductions will cause temperature increase over eastern China and enhance precipitation over southern China.
