An Increasing Misalignment Between Crop Distribution and Environmental Resources Under Climate Change in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Climate change reshapes the spatial alignment between crop production and environmental resources. Using multi‐source data and a crop model, integrated climatic, water, and soil endowments for maize and wheat are quantified and compared with harvest distributions.

Alternating High‐Fat and Polysaccharide Diets Modulates Gut Phage‐Bacterial Interplay

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals how alternating high‐fat and polysaccharide diets reshape the human gut virome and enhance phage‐bacteria interactions. Using large‐scale metagenomic meta‐analysis and a time‐resolved mouse model, the authors show that diets strongly modulate phage abundance, lifestyle, and gene exchange, offering new insights into nutrition‐guided ...

Drought and Extreme Heat Reduce Wheat and Maize Production in the United States by Lowering Both Crop Yields and Harvestable Fraction

Earth's Future
Ensuring food security is crucial in the context of climate change and increased extreme weather events. Crop production depends not only on yield but also on the harvestable fraction (HF), the ratio of harvested areas to planted areas. While the impacts

Quantifying the contribution of triple compound extreme events to global yield loss of major staple crops from 1982 to 2016

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
The increasing frequency of compound extreme events under ongoing climate change threatens global food security. Compared to individual extreme events, the simultaneous occurrence of multiple extreme events can exacerbate crop yield reductions, yet ...

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN URBANIZATION AND DENGUE HAEMORRHAGIC FEVER INCIDENCE IN SEMARANG CITY [PDF]

, 2016
Unplanned urbanization can cause unhealthy urban environment, which in turn increases the population of mosquitoes carrying the dengue vector. Consequently, this would reduce the urban life quality because public health is an important aspect of it.

Mapping the “Supply–Demand–Flow” of Ecosystem Services for Ecosystem Management in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a “supply–demand–flow” framework clarifies how ecosystem services move between regions by distinguishing potential and actual supply and demand. Using integrated biophysical–socioeconomic modeling, nine services in China were mapped.
