ABSTRACT Although significant efforts have been made to prevent environmental degradation, the success of these initiatives has remained limited. The primary reason for this is environmental issues' complex and multidimensional nature. Economic, political, and social dynamics play a central role in shaping environmental problems, necessitating a ...

Mechanism and prevention measures of asymmetric floor heave in mining roadway of Huipodi Coal Mine
Taking Huipodi coal mine as the engineering background, the asymmetric deformation mechanism of the mining roadway under the island coal pillar was studied by theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and field measurement, and the corresponding floor ...

ABSTRACT Using two approaches, we contribute to sub‐national economic performance measurement by netting out the influence of a region's performance on its industries. The first approach measures performance using technical efficiency and involves introducing the first multilevel spatial stochastic frontier model.

Far‐infrared sauna exposure at 65°C elevates core temperature
Abstract Far‐infrared (FIR) saunas are increasingly used as a passive heating and ‘wellness’ modality, yet their capacity to elevate core temperature remains unclear, particularly given prior work at lower temperatures (∼45°C) reports limited net heat storage.

Abstract Natural decadal variability often obscures anthropogenic trends in ocean deoxygenation. Using a global observational oxygen reconstruction (1965–2022), we investigate the role of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) in modulating decadal oxygen variability.
