The chaotic response of the US Strategic National Stockpile to COVID-19 during 2020 highlighted the inadequacy of the inventory-based approaches to disaster response. This paper examines the integration of stockpile inventory, backup capacity, and standby capability to meet the disaster-related...

Taking Economic Zone on the Western Coast of the Taiwan Straits as the study area, we use GIS, remote sensing, mathematical statistics and other methods, to analyze the forest pattern and its variation characteristics in Economic Zone on the Western Coast of the Taiwan Straits during the period...

We take three types of tidal marshes in Shanghai City as the study object: tidal marshes in mainland, tidal marshes in the rim of islands, and shoal in Yangtze estuary. On the basis of assessing nutrient quality and environmental quality, respectively, we use soil quality index (SQI) to assess...

Since the Chinese government's rapid increase in expenditure on science and technology (S&T) during the 2000s, numerous related policies have been implemented by national-, provincial-, city-, and prefecture-level governments in China. Each level of government aims to promote innovation...

We provide a complete characterization of intergenerational welfare state with education and pension under probabilistic voting where voters internalize the general equilibrium effects materializing in their life-span. We show that as public education is introduced in the economy through the...

In this work, two new pyrazolone ester based heterocyclic hydrazone dyes have been prepared and characterized by NMR, FT-IR and MS spectrometry. The acid/base-activated hydrazone-azo tautomerism has been monitored by UV-Vis and 1 H NMR spectra. What is worth mentioning, three Fenton catalysts:...
