With the deep integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, the maritime transportation industry is undergoing profound changes, and the application scenarios of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) are constantly expanding. Aiming at the security threats faced b...

To address two critical gaps in vegetation carbon sink (VCS) research---its limited policy relevance at the county scale and the insufficient identification of nonlinear interactive effects within driving mechanisms---this study focuses on the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle (CCEC). Using MODIS NP...

Deep shale sedimentary environment, diagenesis, and pore evolution are closely related to the occurrence state and content of shale gas, exerting significant control on reservoir quality. In this study, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mineral composition, spectral gamma-ray logging, elemental lo...

Based on in-depth investigation and analysis of the current situation of CCUS development in China, this paper combs and summarizes the technical status and development trends of the carbon capture, transportation, utilization and storage industry (CCUS) at home and abroad in recent years through co...

The shale gas content of the Longmaxi Formation exhibits significant spatial variation in different structural parts of the Sangzhi area in Hubei Province, reflecting differences in preservation conditions. To quantitatively evaluate these conditions, this study integrates analyses of structural fea...

For teachers, advancing professionally and getting job promotions are essential because they encourage hard work and high-quality work. Promotion affects employee performance significantly, and professional development has a significant positive effect on teachers' work commitment while achieving th...

This article explores the emerging concept of in situ hydrogen generation (ISHG) within oil reservoirs as a transformative pathway toward clean energy and hydrocarbon upgrading. With the global energy sector facing decarbonization pressures and limitations of conventional hydrogen production, ISHG o...

This perspective outlines technical strategies for upgrading wastewater into fuels and value-added chemicals, emphasizing a shift toward circular economy and resource recovery through advanced processes like photocatalysis, electrolysis, and microbial technologies.
