Contribution of Spatial Heterogeneity and Temporal-Spatial Change of Ecosystems to the Thermal Environment of Tourist Destinations: A Case Study of Sichuan-Chongqing Region, China by Dechao Chen, Xinliang Xu, Huailong Jiang, Zongyao Sun, Luo Liu, Zhi Qiao

“…Based on the diurnal differences of the contribution indices, cities can be divided into three types: the day-night heat source type, the day-sink and night-source type, and the day-night heat sink type. (2) The farmland and the grassland ecosystems are the most important source and sink landscapes in the thermal environment of the Sichuan-Chongqing Region, respectively. (3) The region is affected by the spatial arrangement of the internal ecosystems and its own development conditions, and, consequently, there are significant temporal-spatial variations and role transitions between heat source and heat sink regarding the contribution of different ecosystem types to the thermal environment of individual cities. …”

Testing of Ferarabivac anti-rabies live vaccine for wild carnivores for its immunogenicity and protectivity by A. V. Shishkov, D. A. Lozovoy, A. V. Borisov, D. V. Mikhalishin

“…The minimum protective threshold levels of serum neutralizing antibodies was determined 12 months after the vaccination, and it was 0.62 ± 0.28 and 0.71 ± 0.17 IU/cm3 in foxes and raccoon dogs, respectively, which proves the necessity to perform booster vaccination one year later. No animals vaccinated against rabies with Ferarabivac live vaccine showed any clinical signs of the disease during the entire observation period following the challenge test carried out 30 days post vaccination.…”

A comparative study on different machine learning approaches with periodic items for the forecasting of GPS satellites clock bias by Longjiang Song, Jiahao Liu, Leilei Wang, Ziyi Wang, Yibo Yuan

“…The average prediction accuracy of forecasting has improved by approximately (39.45, 57.57, 27.28, 29.14)% during 1-day forecasting. The results indicate that the machine learning models incorporating periodic variations outperform the standard quadratic polynomial model in terms of predictive accuracy, and the WNN model is better than that of these three machine learning models. …”
