Locating Seismo-Conductivity Anomaly before the 2017 MW 6.5 Jiuzhaigou Earthquake in China Using Far Magnetic Stations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Changes in the underlying conductivity around hypocenters are generally considered one of the promising mechanisms of seismo-electromagnetic anomaly generation. Parkinson vectors are indicators of high-conductivity materials and were utilized to remotely

Experimental Simulation Investigation on Mechanism and Criterion of Impact‐Induced Rockburst in Gaoloushan Deep Tunnel

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 8, Page 4252-4266, August 2025.
ABSTRACT During the excavation of a deep‐buried tunnel by the drilling and blasting method, the dynamic stress of blasting may cause the disorderly release of high energy in the rock mass during the blasting process of deep high‐energy rock. Blasting vibration is one of the main factors inducing dynamic disasters (such as rockbursts) in the surrounding

Calcium carbonate and phosphorus interactions in inland waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 158-178, April 2025.
Abstract Phosphorus, an element essential to all life, is impacted by calcium carbonate (CaCO3) co‐precipitation and dissolution dynamics across aquatic ecosystems. Changes to climate, hydrology, and eutrophication, coupled with differences in terminology related to naming CaCO3‐producing ecosystems (i.e., chalk, carbonate, karst, travertine), point to

Slip Deficit Rate and Seismic Potential on Crustal Faults in Tibet

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 1, 16 January 2025.
Abstract Quantifying slip deficit rates on active faults in Tibet is essential for understanding fault kinematics and assessing seismic hazards, but has not been fully characterized, particularly on secondary faults. In this study, we integrate an updated interseismic Global Navigation Satellite Systems velocity field from 4,458 stations across ...

The complex governance of protected areas: Insights from geoheritage and geopark management in China

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 679-690, December 2024.
Abstract Geoparks aim to conserve areas of geological significance and achieve sustainable endogenous regional development via geotourism. The management of geoparks requires the involvement of all relevant stakeholders and authorities. However, the strategies when establishing geoparks are often based on the visions of scientists and policymakers ...

Principal sensory experiences of forest visitors in four countries, for evidence‐based nature therapy

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2480-2493, December 2024.
Abstract To advance the theoretical and practical underpinnings for nature therapies, i.e. nature exposure as a means to improve mental health, we compared the most memorable sensory experiences reported by forest tourists in Australia, Chile, China and Japan. Sensory experiences are a fundamental driver of the psychological effects of nature exposure.
