摘要:
Achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality requires industries to enhance energy efficiency and optimize resource utilization. Traditional energy management methods rely on rule-based or static optimization approaches, which struggle to adapt to dynamic production environments and fluctuating energy demands. These limitations lead to inefficient energy use, increased operational costs, and challenges in meeting sustainability goals. This research introduces Deep Learning-based Green Optimization for Enterprise Production (DeepGreen-Opt), a deep learning-driven framework designed to analyze energy consumption patterns, predict demand, and optimize resource allocation in real time. The DeepGreen-Opt framework integrates Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) for accurate energy consumption forecasting and Adaptive Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization (AHPSO) for dynamic energy optimization. A fuzzy logic-based decision system is incorporated to enhance adaptability under uncertain conditions, enabling real-time adjustments to fluctuating energy demands. The DeepGreen-Opt framework was specifically validated across multiple industrial sectors, including automotive manufacturing, steel production facilities, and chemical processing plants, where intelligent energy management demonstrates significant operational improvements. By implementing DeepGreen-Opt, enterprises can achieve cost-effective production while aligning with sustainability objectives. The framework ensures energy-efficient operations, reducing resource waste and improving production efficiency. Experimental validation on industrial datasets demonstrates a 15% increase in energy efficiency and a 12% improvement in overall production performance compared to existing approaches. This research highlights the potential of DeepGreen-Opt in industrial energy management, providing a foundation for future advancements in intelligent and sustainable production processes.

impact;spatial spillover effect;agricultural green development;integration of agriculture and tourism;non-linear effect
摘要:
The integration of agriculture and tourism, grounded in agricultural resources, not only offers new development opportunities for the agricultural sector but also steers it towards a greener and more sustainable trajectory. Using panel data from 30 provinces in China from 2011 to 2022, this study quantifies the levels of agriculture and tourism integration (ATL) and agricultural green development (AGD) in each province. Then, the study applies the fixed effects model, the spatial Durbin model, and the panel smooth transition regression (PSTR) model to empirically assess the impact of ATL on AGD, as well as its spatial spillover effect and its nonlinear characteristics. The findings are as follows: (1) Over the study period, both AGD and ATL exhibited steady growth, with marked spatial agglomeration effects; (2) ATL positively influenced AGD, suggesting that the integration of agriculture and tourism contributes to the green development of agriculture; (3) The impact of ATL on AGD exhibited significant spatial spillover effects, meaning that integrated agricultural-tourism development in one region can enhance AGD in its neighboring provinces; (4) The effect of ATL on AGD demonstrated nonlinear characteristics, with the influence of ATL on AGD intensifying as ATL increased. Based on these findings, the study proposes several policy recommendations, including strengthening top-level policy design, improving regional coordination mechanisms, and enhancing human capital cultivation, to foster deeper the integration of agriculture and tourism and to further accelerate the green development of agriculture.

摘要:
In the digital era, social media proliferation accelerates rumor dissemination. During public health emergencies, such misinformation intensifies social harm. Studying the influencing factors of online rumor refutation behavior thus becomes crucial. This study uses the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) theory as an analysis framework, based on the perspective of information sources and integrating group norms as a moderating factor, to explore the psychological processes affecting Chinese university students' online rumor refuting in public health emergencies. Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 1017 respondents, and the collected data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling research method. The results indicate that both online and offline information seeking positively influence university students' fear of contracting the COVID-19 virus. University students' fear positively influences their engagement in online rumor refuting. Notably, fear mediates the link between online and offline information seeking and online rumor refuting. Additionally, group norms help strengthen the connection between university students' fear and their involvement in online refuting rumors. These results provide theoretical explanations and practical guidance for university students to refute rumors online.
摘要:
BACKGROUND: This study aims to examine the level of coupled and coordinated development between China's digital economy and older adult care services, analyzing their spatiotemporal evolution characteristics and key influencing factors, with the goal of providing feasible recommendations and scientific bases for the development of the digital economy and older adult care services in China. METHODS: This study uses publicly available panel data from China for the years 2015-2022. It employs the entropy method to measure the weights of various indicators in the digital economy and older adult care services. The study analyzes the level of coordinated development between the two using the coupling coordination degree model, and measures the main driving factors using the geographical detector model. RESULTS: (1) The overall level of coupling and coordinated development between China's digital economy and older adult care services shows an upward trend, but the growth rate is uneven, exhibiting an "M-shaped" pattern, with rapid growth followed by gradual slowdown, a bottoming-out rebound, and then a continuous decline. (2) There are significant spatial differences in the coupling and coordinated development of China's digital economy and older adult care services. Coastal areas are developing rapidly, inland areas have great potential, while peripheral areas are relatively lagging behind. Additionally, neighboring regions show regional linkage dynamics. (3) The main factors driving the coupling and coordinated development of China's digital economy and older adult care services include enterprise website ownership, technological contract turnover, the proportion of information technology service income, the building area of older adult care institutions, daily in-house visits, and the number of professional technical personnel. CONCLUSION: To achieve coordinated development between the digital economy and older adult care services, efforts should focus on policy, market, technology, and talent. The government should support technological innovation and new service models, while tailoring strategies to regional market demands. Additionally, accelerating the industrialization of innovations and promoting intelligent upgrades in older adult care services are crucial. Finally, more investment is needed to cultivate composite talents in both the government and older adult care institutions.

摘要:
Introduction: Ensuring the quality and safety of green food throughout the supply chain has become increasingly critical due to growing consumer concerns and the complexity of food systems. Traditional approaches often suffer from information asymmetry and poor traceability. This study addresses these challenges by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology (BCT) to enhance transparency, traceability, and early warning capabilities in green food supply chains. Methods: A two-part technical framework is developed. First, a production anomaly warning model is constructed using a Spatio-Temporal Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (ST-DBSCAN) algorithm, allowing real-time detection of deviations in production parameters. Second, a blockchain-based traceability system is implemented using Hyperledger Fabric, recording critical events across procurement, processing, logistics, and distribution nodes. Data from IoT sensors are collected and transmitted through a closed-loop “sensing-analysis-certification” mechanism to ensure data reliability and integrity. Results: The ST-DBSCAN-based warning model outperforms traditional machine learning methods, achieving an accuracy of 0.93, precision of 0.91, recall of 0.90, and F1-score of 0.90. The BCT-based traceability model demonstrates superior performance with an average query time of 2.3 seconds, throughput of 400 requests/second, and latency of 1.15 seconds, significantly surpassing traditional and cloud database systems in response efficiency and stability. Discussion: The proposed AI-BCT integrated model enhances risk identification, real-time monitoring, and traceability across the green food supply chain. Moreover, the study introduces green finance and supply chain financing mechanisms to support small and medium-sized enterprises in adopting intelligent supervision technologies. This research contributes a practical, secure, and scalable approach to advancing digital governance in food safety and building resilient, trustworthy food supply chains.

摘要:
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the use of social media can promote the selection of formal care services by disabled elderly and identifies the moderating effects of elderly digital competence and psychological expectations on this relationship. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Based on the modified Anderson model and consumer behaviour psychology, study employs China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) data from 2015, 2018 and 2020 to empirically examine the utilisation duration and mechanisms of formal care services for the disabled elderly. RESULTS: The use of social media has significantly increased both the duration of formal care for disabled elderly and the total time of blended family care and formal care. Digital competence and high psychological expectations positively moderate the influence of social media on the utilisation of formal care services. CONCLUSIONS: Enhancing the psychological expectations of disabled elderly regarding formal care services through the information-accessing features of social media and improving their digital competence therefore enhance socialised elderly care security, build a "smart elderly care" platform and conduct "spatial accessibility+social media skills" training, achieve precise coverage of care services.
摘要:
This study explores the relationship between public sector reform (PSR) and the reduction of administrative burdens (ABs), expanding the focus from government-citizen to government-business interactions. It introduces a framework aimed at reducing ABs in business settings, linking PSR to improvements in the business ecosystem. Using enterprise survey data, the study's multivariable regression models demonstrate that government reforms significantly enhance the business ecosystem. Recognising potential endogeneity, the study employs the historical timing of port openings in the ancient China as an instrumental variable. The instrumental variable regression analysis confirms the positive impact of PSRs, even after accounting for endogeneity. This research extends administrative burden theory and offers valuable insights for developing countries like China, suggesting that targeted government reforms can foster economic growth.Points for practitioners This paper introduces a new approach for developing countries like China to enhance the business ecosystem through public sector reform. Reducing administrative burdens is crucial for improving the business ecosystem and guiding targeted policy reforms. Utilising technologies like AI and 5G to reduce administrative burdens is effective, but reforms should be tailored to specific country contexts.

Fragmented growth;Rural housing wealth difference;Land use efficiency;Urban fringes;Suburbanization
摘要:
The dynamic changes in urban fringes have been widely studied in the context of suburbanization, but few studies have disaggregated the fragmented expansion or intrinsic differences in rural housing at the household or village level. Using fine-grained housing data from 66 villages in Shanghai for the period of 1978–2017, we elucidated the fragmented variation in rural housing and the state of wealth differences in urban fringes at the household or village levels, as well as examined the relationships between rural housing expansion and housing wealth differences through the combined use of Gini coefficient decomposition, Shapley decomposition, and quantile regression. The results showed that the disparate increases in rural housing wealth in Shanghai's metropolitan suburbs were largely due to the unapproved and frequent growth of auxiliary rooms in households. Villages adjacent to downtown areas or towns have been able to engage in this form of construction more than those further away, stimulating rural housing differences at the landscape scale. Driven by the opportunity spaces that emerge from government policies and the demand for rentals near sources of urban employment, the unregulated and disorganized dynamic of rural auxiliary rooms have exacerbated existing inequalities and resulted in stratified wealth differentiation within urban fringes. In conclusion, we suggest clarifying the approval system for the construction of rural rooms and implementing effective land use planning to manage fragmented housing growth, thereby leading to more balanced wealth growth and improved land use efficiency.

摘要:
This research explores how individual factors, including intrinsic motivations, capabilities, and specific characteristics, shape both individual disaster preparedness and volunteering, representing private and altruistic coproduction in disasters. Analyzing data from 5,681 respondents in the 2022 US National Household Survey, logistic regression results reveal that group belonging and self-efficacy, identified as citizens’ intrinsic motivations, positively correlate with the likelihood of engaging in disaster preparedness (emergency plans, emergency supplies, emergency alerts, and emergency drills) and volunteering. Regarding individual abilities, disaster experience positively influences the propensity to undertake each preparedness activity and to volunteer, while resource access increases the likelihood of adopting all preparedness actions and volunteering, except for stocking emergency supplies. Concerning individual-specific characteristics, the urban-rural divide shows a negative association with volunteering. The findings contribute to the growing coproduction literature for residents preparing for and volunteering in disasters and highlight individual determinants in building resilient communities.
摘要:
Developing robust ecological networks (ENs) is critical for sustaining ecosystem function and biodiversity in the ecologically vulnerable Loess Hills of the Central Yellow River Basin—a region increasingly fragmented by intensive agriculture and infrastructure expansion. Conventional methods for identifying ecological sources often depend on weighted overlays of ecosystem services (ESs), introducing subjectivity and limiting replicability. To address this, the present study combines a Self-Organizing Map (SOM) neural clustering model with complex network analysis to identify ecological sources and enhance overall network structure. Using a 50 km² threshold to define ecologically functional patches, the analysis identified 42 ecological sources—comprising 23 climate regulation-type sources and 19 agricultural provisioning-type sources—accounting for 26.8 % of the total landscape. These nodes were connected through 91 ecological corridors, which were classified into three types: 26 climate corridors, 29 provisioning corridors, and 36 integrated multifunctional corridors. Following optimization, the network exhibited a 6.5-fold increase in total source area and a 2.7-fold rise in corridor density. Quantitative improvements in structural indices were observed, including increased connectivity (α rising from 0.51 to 0.68), greater complexity (β from 1.81 to 2.34), and higher efficiency (γ from 0.69 to 0.82). Robustness simulations under both random and targeted disturbances demonstrated significant gains in network resilience after the addition of eight strategic corridors guided by node betweenness centrality. This research introduces a transferable, data-driven framework that merges machine learning and systems theory for ecological network construction, with implications for spatial planning and environmental resilience in erosion-prone, agriculturally dominated landscapes.

摘要:
Modern agricultural technologies are crucial for addressing global food security and environmental sustainability challenges amidst a growing population and climate change. These innovations, including precision agriculture, biotechnology, smart irrigation, automation, vertical farming, and artificial intelligence (AI), significantly enhance productivity and land use efficiency. Precision agriculture, utilizing GPS, drones, and IoT, improves yields by 20–30% and cuts input waste by 40–60%. Biotechnology, with CRISPR and GMOs, delivers drought and pest-resistant crops, stabilizing yields, as seen with Bt cotton reducing pesticide use by 50% in India. Smart irrigation boosts water efficiency by 40–60%, while automation and robotics mitigate labor shortages and reduce costs by 25%. Vertical farming increases yields 10–20 times with 95% less land and water, supporting urban food security. AI analytics enhance decision-making with over 90% accuracy in forecasting and resource allocation. Despite these benefits, high costs, technological illiteracy, and regulatory issues hinder adoption, especially among smallholders. Policy support, public-private partnerships, and training are vital for broader technology access and fair benefits. Integrating renewable energy and circular economy principles into aggrotech presents a path to sustainability. This review highlights the transformative potential of modern technologies for sustainable intensification, increasing productivity without expanding farmland, while lessening environmental impacts. It underscores the need for coordinated efforts to overcome adoption challenges and harness these innovations for global food security and climate resilience.
摘要:
Over the past few decades, China's economic growth and urbanization have driven a significant migration of rural laborers to cities. Recently, however, an increasing number of migrant workers have chosen to return to their hometowns for employment opportunities. Understanding the factors influencing this return migration is crucial but challenging due to the complexity and diversity of these factors and their intricate interrelationships. Moreover, existing research on migrant workers' return lacks a systematic theoretical framework and comprehensive empirical analysis. To address these gaps, our study utilizes the "Push-Pull Theory" from migration theory to develop a comprehensive model. This model investigates how perceived benefits, trust, costs, and both personal and government support affect migrant workers' willingness to return. We employ structural equation modeling (SEM) for empirical analysis, revealing that perceived benefits, trust, and costs significantly influence migrant workers' perception of return support. This perception, in turn, enhances their willingness to return. Additionally, our findings show that government support positively moderates the relationship between perceived benefits and costs with return support. However, it does not significantly affect the relationship between perceived trust and support, indicating that policy incentives alone may not sufficiently build trust in hometowns. Furthermore, emotional factors-such as family and place attachment, community involvement, and quality of life in hometowns-indirectly influence the decision to return by shaping perceived benefits, trust, and costs. This study advances the application of Push-Pull Theory by integrating economic factors with emotional bonds in the context of return migration. It provides novel insights into how both economic incentives and emotional ties drive migrant workers' decisions to return, offering a more nuanced understanding of migration dynamics in China.

Cultivated land fragmentation;'no-grain';food security;grain margins;two-way fixed effects model
摘要:
With the continuous growth of the global population, food security has emerged as a critical issue of international concern. Accordingly, this study focuses on the key factor of cultivated land fragmentation, systematically uncovering the underlying mechanisms through which such fragmentation drives the shift away from food crop cultivation. The findings provide a valuable basis for countries worldwide to improve the current state of cultivated land fragmentation. This study utilizes microdata from the national rural fixed observation points (2009-2017) and employs a two-way fixed effects model. Additionally, the study employs IV-2SLS, heterogeneity analysis, and robustness tests to validate the effect of cultivated land fragmentation on this shift. (1) For every one-unit increase in the degree of cultivated land fragmentation, the extent of the shift away from food crop cultivation intensifies by 0.1%, and (2) the profitability of grain cultivation exerts a positive effect of 24.4% on the shift away from food crops. Cultivated land fragmentation exacerbates the shift away from food crop cultivation, thereby undermining food security. Additionally, there is significant heterogeneity in farmer behavior, with part-time farmers and non-farm farmers exhibiting a pronounced tendency towards this shift.

摘要:
This study constructs an analytical framework to assess the effectiveness of collaborative governance in smart communities, focusing on six key elements: collaborative subjects, funding sources, community participants’ literacy, community-specific systems, community culture, and supporting facilities. Using fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) on 20 typical cases of community governance, the study identifies that collaborative subjects and supporting facilities are necessary conditions for achieving effective community governance. Community culture and community participants’ literacy are recognized as sufficient conditions for effective collaborative governance involving multiple subjects in smart communities. The study also identifies several pathways to enhance the effectiveness of collaborative governance in smart communities, including the subject-–culture-embedded pathway, technology–resource-driven pathway, and system–talent-led pathway. These pathways highlight the integration of community-specific cultural elements and the leveraging of modern technologies to foster stakeholder engagement, enhance decision-making processes, and improve service delivery. The findings suggest that robust community culture and literacy, combined with advanced technological infrastructure and diverse funding sources, significantly contribute to the success of collaborative governance initiatives. By providing a comprehensive analysis of the interplay between these factors, the study offers valuable insights into the construction of smart communities and proposes strategies for enhancing the effectiveness of collaborative governance. This research contributes to the broader discourse on sustainable urban development and the knowledge economy, emphasizing the crucial role of innovation, technology, and community engagement in shaping the future of smart cities.

early adolescence;externalizing problem behaviors;family factors;latent profile analysis;latent transition analysis;poverty
摘要:
Children's externalizing problem behavior is one of the most explored topics among parents, educators, and research scholars. The purpose of this study is to examine the developmental changes of externalizing problem behavior in the early years of poor children and adolescents and the influence of family factors such as family functioning and parental marital quality on the developmental changes. Seven hundred and seventy-eight early adolescents (M(age) = 13.7, SD = 2.53) from poor families were studied longitudinally for 14 months. The results showed that three potential characteristics of externalizing problem behavior patterns were identified through Latent Profile Analysis (LPA): well-adjusted group, attention disorder group, and conduct problem group. Latent Transition Analysis (LTA) revealed a tendency for the conduct problem group to transition to the well-adjusted group over two traces (OR = 0.40). There were gender differences in the results: boys in the conduct problem group were more likely to transition to the well-adjusted group (OR = 0.55), while girls in the attention disorder group were more likely to transition to the well-adjusted group (OR = 2.63). Research has found that a supportive family environment is a positive factor in mitigating externalizing problem behaviors of the early adolescents in their transition to adolescence.

摘要:
As the mainstay of the highly skilled talent team, digital artisans are of great significance in promoting industrial transformation and upgrading, accelerating the pace of digital as well as realising Vision 2035. To analyse the structure of the core educational elements of digital artisans, based on the procedural grounded theory, 30 digital artisans were selected as the objects, and with the help of in-depth interview data, the initial codes were extracted from the original data through the process of open coding-spindle coding-selective coding, which was integrated to form 33 concepts and 12 categories, and further refined into 4 main categories. The results show that, as a rich, multidimensional concept, the elements of digital artisan education are divided into 'knowledge structure,' 'ability structure,' 'quality structure', and 'digital structure.' The 'knowledge structure' includes the dimensions of basic knowledge, professional knowledge, and specific knowledge; the 'competence structure' includes the dimensions of basic competence, professional competence, and specific competence; and the 'competence structure' consists of the dimensions of basic competence, professional competence, and specific competence. The 'knowledge structure' includes three dimensions of basic knowledge, professional knowledge, and comprehensive knowledge, the 'ability structure' includes essential ability, professional ability, and innovation capacity, the 'digital structure' consists of three dimensions of digital quality, digital knowledge and digital skills, and the 'quality structure' includes the dimensions of belief quality and professional spirit. The research can better stimulate the vitality of the great digital artisans and provide theoretical support and practical insights for promoting them to serve the development and enhancement of the digital economy.
摘要:
Under the background of dual-carbon target, market-based environmental regulation influences the production decision and resource allocation of enterprises, and profoundly affects industrial transformation and upgrading. Based on the carbon emissions trading pilot policy, this paper constructs difference-in-differences model to evaluate the impact of market-based environmental regulations on industrial transformation and upgrading. The results show that market-based environmental regulation is conducive to promoting industrial transformation and upgrading, and it still holds under a series of robustness tests such as placebo test and PSM-DID. The mechanism analysis finds that market-based environmental regulation promotes green innovation and accelerates technology diffusion, renovating and upgrading equipment, and forcing low value-added and high-pollution industries to climb along the middle and high end of the value chain. It is further found that market-based environmental regulation has a greater impact on industrial transformation and upgrading in resource-oriented cities and western regions. The digital economy has an important moderating effect on the impact of market-based environmental regulation on industrial transformation and upgrading, mainly by reducing information asymmetry and improving the enforcement of environmental regulation policies. Finally, the analysis of economic consequences found that market-based environmental regulation for industrial transformation and upgrading can promote regional “energy saving and carbon reduction” and significantly improve regional environmental performance. Therefore, we should expand the scope of carbon emissions trading market, promote digital innovation to create a safe and controllable digital industrial system, and promote industrial transformation and upgrading.

SD-LSTM;smart agro-rural development;digital rural construction;high-quality development of agriculture;coupling coordination
摘要:
The rapid advancement of digital information technology in rural China has positioned smart agro-rural development as a key driver of agricultural modernization. This study focuses on the theme of digital rural construction (DRC) and high-quality agricultural development (HAD), combining the two into smart agriculture and rural development. Utilizing panel data from 31 Chinese provinces from 2011 to 2022, a comprehensive evaluation index system is constructed to assess development levels. The entropy weight method and kernel density estimation are employed to evaluate indicator performance and capture dynamic distribution patterns. A coupling coordination model is used to analyze the spatio-temporal evolution of the interaction between the two systems, while a hybrid SD-LSTM (System Dynamics–Long Short-Term Memory) model forecasts coordination trends over the next six years. Results reveal a steady upward trend in both systems, with coordination levels improving from “moderate imbalance” to “moderate coordination.” A distinct spatial pattern emerges, characterized by “high in the east, low in the west” and a mismatch between high coupling and low coordination. Forecasts suggest a continued progression toward “good coordination.” The findings offer policy implications for enhancing digital village initiatives, accelerating rural technological diffusion, and strengthening regional collaboration—providing valuable insights into advancing China’s smart rural transformation and agricultural modernization.

income inequality;ordered probit model;rural residents;social mentality;subjective well-being
摘要:
Since the initiation of economic reforms and opening-up, China's economy has achieved remarkable growth, leading to a significant improvement in the standard of living for its people. However, the trickle-down effect of this growth has not been equitably distributed across all segments of society. This study attempts to analyze the subjective well-being (SWB) of Chinese rural residents using data from the 2021 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS). An ordered probit (OProbit) model is constructed to investigate the impact of income inequality on the subjective well-being of Chinese rural residents. The findings reveal three key insights: (1) the benchmark regression demonstrates a significant negative impact of income inequality on the subjective well-being of Chinese rural residents. (2) Social mentality emerges as a critical mediating channel through which income inequality undermines subjective well-being. (3) The impact of income inequality on subjective well-being varied significantly depending on factors such as age, gender, and marital status. As enhancing well-being gains increasing recognition as a central goal in global public health policy, the findings of this study provide valuable insights for designing policies aimed at improving subjective well-being, particularly in rural contexts.
