The theoretical cognition and research paradigm of land system science by LONG Hualou, CHEN Kunqiu, ZHENG Yuhan, ZHANG Yingnan

“…The research paradigm of land system science has gradually transformed from knowledge and phenomenon description to the simulation and prediction of complex land systems, which emphasizes the integration of multidisciplinary theories and methods as well as understanding the local-distant coupled interactions of land systems based on the integrated multiscale analysis of expanding boundaries, and focuses on the construction of large-scale quantitative land system models to provide comprehensive and dynamic integrated analysis, prediction and simulation of its dynamic mechanisms, integrated effects and future scenarios and risks, and appeals for an opening scientific collaboration in the era of big data.…”

The Strategy of Lexical Specialization Explicitation in Quran Translation: A Study on Majāz Mursal by Mahmud Yunus by Nasimah Abdullah, Saifulah Samsudin

“…However, research that examines Mahmud Yunus' translation approach from the perspective of modern Western translation theories remains exceedingly rare. Therefore, this study aims to explore the translation approach employed by Mahmud Yunus by utilising one of the explicitation strategies, namely lexical specification, as proposed by Klaudy and Károly in 2005, who view explicitation as a translation strategy that can reveal the implicit meaning present in the source language into the target language due to contextual factors. …”
