Quantitative Dynamic Calculation Method of Ecological Compensation in Core River Basin Based on Pollutant Reduction Cost by HU Xin

“…In a core basin,the city agglomeration and developed economy often lead to huge resource consumption,which seriously damages the surrounding ecological resources.As the traditional quantitative dynamic calculation method of ecological compensation is greatly affected by the natural environment in the core basin,the accuracy of the quantitative calculation is poor.Therefore,a quantitative dynamic calculation method of ecological compensation for a core basin based on the reduction cost of pollutants is proposed.In this paper,the gray parameters of any pixel in a core basin image are described,and the feature extraction matrix is smoothed by the filtering function.By judging the quality of ecological compensation characteristics,the ecological compensation features in the core basin are extracted.Moreover,the gray threshold for the classification of ecological compensation features and the use conditions of parameters are given,and the plane component of the optimal ecological compensation feature is calculated.Then,the calculation method of pollutant reduction costs is applied to evaluate the loss caused by environmental pollution and vegetation damage in the core basin,and with the calculation of water conservation in the ecosystem,the ecological compensation of the core basin is calculated quantitatively and dynamically.The experimental results reveal that the method improves the accuracy of quantitative dynamic calculation of ecological compensation and shortens the calculation time.This indicates that the calculation performance of this method is superior,and it can provide accurate ecological supplementary suggestions and a basis for the ecological compensation analysis in the core area.…”

Breaking up the Canon of Literary Modernity: Classicism in the Ecopoetics of David Hinton and the Materialism of Zeng Shaoli. A Preliminary Outline of Epistemological Changes in Co... by Frank Kraushaar

“…Although there are obviously no direct links between the aforementioned tradition of modern American poetry and neoclassicist cyberpoets like Zeng Shaoli I argue that in both cases the classicist inspiration and poetic drive is motivated by concern with the increasing imbalance between natural, social, and individual resources, on the one hand, and an indomitable desire to accumulate economic and political power on the other. …”

MENTAL BARRIERS TO REDUCE VULNERABILITY TO INJURY DURING A FALL: AN ELEMENTARY ISSUE OF PERSONAL SAFETY IN A GLOBAL CIVILIZATION by Bartłomiej Gąsienica-Walczak, Artur Kalina, Artur Litwiniuk, Joanna Baj-Korpak

“…Participants in the main pedagogical experiments declared that: teaching safe fall techniques made sense for both healthy and high-risk individuals (95% of physiotherapy students’ responses); all amputees and 83% of patients with visual impairment were convinced that teaching safe fall techniques in high-risk fall groups made sense; one response from a patient with visual impairment (16%) was “I don’t know”, and none of the respondents denied the advisability of teaching safe fall techniques. The child’s natural ability to protect their hands and head during an unintentional fall begins to be lost by the age of three. …”

BPS Equations of Monopole and Dyon in SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs Model, Nakamula-Shiraishi Models, and Their Generalized Versions from the BPS Lagrangian Method by Ardian Nata Atmaja, Ilham Prasetyo

“…We argue that, by identifying the effective fields of scalar field, f, and of time-component gauge field, j, explicitly by j=βf with β being a real constant, the usual BPS equations for dyon can be obtained naturally. We validate this identification by showing that both Euler-Lagrange equations for f and j are identical in the BPS limit. …”
