Governing by Ambiguity: Sociotechnical Imaginaries of Platforms in China
Policy &Internet, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Besides clear policy directives, the unresolved and open‐ended elements in policy communication also create discursive politics. This article argues that ambiguity in policy communication reflects the state's exercise of power within a fractured sociocultural landscape.

In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Impacts of Human Development on Wildlife Use of Corridors in Botswana 人类开发对博茨瓦纳野生动物廊道利用的影响
Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 164-171, March 2026.This study examined the effect of landscape‐scale human impact on wildlife in Botswana. We examined how species use wildlife corridors in two different human‐dominated landscapes. We identified differences in temporal overlap between wildlife and humans across both landscapes, which is fundamental to consider in both current and future conservation ...

Nitrogen Anchoring Effect Triggering Improved Reversible Hydrogen Storage of Mg(BH4)2
Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT This research uncovered the influence of nitrogen‐doped MXene Ti3CN on the reversible hydrogen storage properties of Mg(BH4)2. The Mg(BH4)2‐20Ti3CN composite began releasing hydrogen at a temperature of 80°C. In addition, the composite discharged over 8.8 wt% hydrogen at a comparatively lower temperature of 270°C, whereas the pure Mg(BH4)2 ...

短路电流直流分量对断路器电弧长度、压气室压力、喷口气体质量流的影响研究
Gaoya dianqi, 2021 随着电网容量的不断增大,电力系统短路电流直流分量的时间常数有很大可能大于其标准时间常数45 ms。目前非对称短路电流直流分量对断路器燃弧阶段关键参数的影响规律尚无研究。因此,文中研究目标是获得短路电流直流分量对断路器燃弧阶段关键参数的影响规律。基于高压断路器内部结构建立电弧物理焓流仿真模型,分别研究气体断路器开断对称电流和非对称电流时,燃弧阶段的关键电弧参数如电弧长度、压气室压力、喷口处气体质量流等参数的变化规律。研究结果显示:相同燃弧时间条件下,相比于对称短路电流,非对称短路电流开断时 ...
