    Abstract Injecting carbon dioxide is the most effective means of preventing and extinguishing fires in sealing hazardous areas, but the traditional method slowly and remotely injects carbon dioxide gas into the well after gasification on the ground, which is dependent on the complete mine pipe network without cooling effect. To inject liquid directly from the tank with vacuum interlayer and heat insulating powder for rapid inerting and cooling, a new approach using track mobile platform to go deep into the underground mine disaster area is proposed, so the liquid can be delivered to the nozzle at the end of DN40 large diameter pipe, and the continuous gasification jet can be realized. The experimental results show that: (1) The liquid volume in a tank of vacuum degree within 2.0 Pa and 200 mm interlayer reduced no more than 15.5% after 48 days; (2) Taking the pressure in the tank as the power source, because of environmental differences inside and outside the pipe after 100 m pressure holding delivery, the physical form of liquid and gas could be converted instantly; (3) The continuous discharge time without ice blocking for a tank full of 2 m3 liquid was about 10.5 min under 25 L dual mode nitrogen pressurization, which is 1/12 of injection time after ground gasification; (4) Based on the temperature decrease trend measured at different positions, the cooling characteristics on liquid gasification jet path are quantified, and the calculation formula of temperature changing with time on the center line of liquid gasification jet is obtained. Through this new approach, the integration of vacuum insulated storage, safe mobile transportation, and continuous and rapid release with large flow can be achieved for the liquid carbon dioxide.

    Abstract Introduction: We investigated the disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of glaucoma.
    Methods: The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was measured to assess trends in the age-standardized DALY rate from 1990 to 2019.
    Results: The global age-standardized DALY rate of glaucoma decreased with an EAPC of -1.00. The age-standardized DALY rate decreased least in high-SDI regions. Eastern sub-Saharan Africa had highest age-standardized DALY rate in 2019. At the national level, Mali had the highest age-standardized DALY rate in 2019.
    Conclusions: Although the global burden of glaucoma has decreased, the burden remain high in regions with low SDI values and in sub-Saharan Africa.

    Abstract Surface energy partitioning is one of the most important aspects of the land-atmosphere coupling. The objective of this study is to examine how soil moisture (SM) and atmospheric conditions (net radiation, Rn and vapor pressure deficit, VPD) affect surface evaporation fraction (EF, determined by LE/(LE + H), where LE and H are latent and sensible heat flux, respectively) with measurements at a semi-arid grass site in China during the mid-growing season, 2020. The three factors (SM, Rn, and VPD) were divided into different levels, and then their effects on EF were investigated qualitatively using a combinatorial stratification method and quantificationally using a path analysis. Generally, the results indicated that the effect of one factor of SM, Rn and VPD on EF was influenced by the other two factors. EF tended to increase with increasing SM. Increased VPD (Rn) enhanced (weakened) the SM-EF relationship. When soil was dry, EF tended to decrease with increasing VPD; when soil was wet, EF initially levelled off and then decreased with increasing VPD. Increased Rn enhanced (weakened) the positive (negative) effect of VPD on EF when soil was wet (dry). In terms of Rn effect, EF tended to decrease as Rn increases. Further, path analysis suggested that SM, Rn, and VPD not only directly affected EF, but also indirectly affected EF, mainly through canopy conductance (Gs) and temperature difference between land surface and air (∆T). The direct effect of SM accounted for >50 % of its total effect on EF, while the total effects of Rn and VPD on EF were dominated by their indirect effects. These observational evidences may have implications for improving representation of land-atmosphere coupling in atmospheric general circulation models over the semi-arid regions covered by grass.

    Abstract Turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) is widely used to characterize the spatio-temporal changes of atmospheric turbulence. The objective of this study is to investigate the near-surface TKE characteristics under the different convection regimes classified by the ratio of the buoyancy term (BP) to the shear term (SP) based on the sonic anemometer data measured at four boundary layer towers in China with contrasting underlying surfaces. The annual average diurnal variations of TKE and the related variables (BP, SP, friction velocity u∗, and wind speed u¯) at the four towers are analyzed. Large differences exist in each variable between sites, leading to convection regimes differing by site. TKE varies significantly (up to 243%) with the convection regimes. Although the percentage of given convection regime varies greatly between sites, the results from the four towers show that TKE initially increases from the unstable to neutral atmospheric stratification conditions, and decreases from the neutral to stable conditions. Note that the ratio between BP and SP (BP/SP) is closely related to near-surface atmospheric stability. Except for BP, the other three variables (SP, u∗, and u¯) have similar trends with TKE. The buoyancy term tends to decrease as BP/SP decreases. The correlation coefficients (R) between TKE and the related variables vary up to 0.33 (67%) with different convective regimes, whereas the variation trends of R between TKE and a given variable (BP and SP) are broadly similar at the four towers. This study indicates that the variation trend of TKE and its associations with BP and SP seem reliable under the different convection regimes. Our findings advance the understanding of near-surface turbulence and demonstrate that the different convection regimes should be considered when investigating TKE characteristics.

    Abstract Despite the implementation of strict air pollution control measures in recent years, severe haze events were still encountered in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (Jing-Jin-Ji) region during the winter 2016. In this work, seasonal differences in correlations between air pollution and geographic terrain, atmospheric dynamical and thermal structures, and PBL height over the Jing-Jin-Ji region in history and recent years were investigated and a comprehensive model of atmospheric factors affecting winter air pollution formation was proposed. We found that the distribution of PM

    Abstract Palmyra palm syrup, produced from Borassus flabellifer flowers’ sap, is rich in nutrients and minerals and has unique flavors. This study evaluated the in vitro antioxidant activity, physicochemical characteristics, and Maillard reaction products of palmyra palm syrup prepared by thermal and ultrafiltration processes. Palmyra palm syrup prepared by a thermal process had smaller L*, b* values, and larger a* values than that prepared by an ultrafiltration process. Palmyra palm syrup contained 10 vitamins, the most abundant being vitamin E. Overall, 38 volatile compounds were found and classified into six groups in the order of alcohols > acids > ketones > sulfurs > pyrazines > phenols and aldehyde. Volatile compounds depended on concentration, temperature, and ultrafiltration process. Protein content decreased because of participation in the Maillard reaction and increased 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and total phenolic content. The HMF content was very low (0.02–14.95 mg/100 g). The radical scavenging activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-1 picrylhydrazyl and 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) in palmyra palm syrup with thermal process was higher than with ultrafiltration. This study established that ultrafiltration pretreatment of palmyra palm syrup generated a good appearance and reduced the HMF content, however, it negatively affected the volatile compounds and physicochemical characteristics.

    Abstract In addition to weather conditions and pollutant emissions, the degree to which topography influences the occurrence and development of haze pollution in downtown Beijing and the mechanisms that may be involved remain open questions. A series of atmospheric chemistry simulations are executed by using the online-coupled Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) model for November-December 2015 with different hypothetical topographic height scenarios. The simulation results show that topography exerts an important influence on haze pollution in downtown Beijing, particularly the typical development of haze pollution. A possible mechanism that underlies the response of haze pollution to topography is that the mountains that surround Beijing tend to produce anomalous southerly winds, high relative humidity, low boundary layer heights, and sinking motion over most of Beijing. These conditions favor the formation and development of haze pollution in downtown Beijing. Furthermore, the reduction percentage in PM
