As a potential source of the hydroxyl (OH) radical and nitrous acid (HONO), photolysis of -nitrophenol (ONP) is of significant interest in both experimental and theoretical studies. In the atmospheric environment, the number of water molecules surrounding ONP changes with the humidity of the air, leading to an anisotropic chemical environment. This may have an impact on the photodynamics of ONP and provide a mechanism that differs from previously reported ones in the gas phase or in solution.

It, in turn, influences the photodynamic behaviors of ONP, differing from those observed in the gas phase and in solution. Recently, we explored the excited-state decay and the generation of the hydroxyl (OH) radical before proton transfer of ONP in the microsolvated environment using the MS-CASPT2//CASSCF approach.

Based on nighttime light data, POI data, land use data and energy statistics, this study calculated the carbon emissions of different industrial categories in the Yellow River Basin from 2005 to 2020 and analyzed the temporal and spatial characteristics of their changes to reveal the carbon emission patterns of different industrial categories in the basin. This study analyzes the carbon emissions of various industrial categories from a spatial perspective, addressing the limitations of traditional industrial carbon emission assessments at the spatial scale.

It is essential to accurately understand the spatial distribution of high-resolution FFCO emissions to formulate different carbon emission reduction policies in different regions. Therefore, a sectoral allocation approach was proposed to estimate FFCO emissions in China from 2000 to 2021 based on multi-source data.

Its application in the construction of ground- and excited-state potential energy surfaces is attractive to accelerate nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulations of photochemical reactions. Because of the huge computational cost of excited-state electronic structure calculations, the construction of a high-quality data set becomes a bottleneck.

In this study, rice bran was fermented by MF423 to obtain a product with high antioxidant activity. First, a reliable and efficient method for assessing the antioxidant capacity of the fermentation products was established using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which ensured the consistency of the batch fermentation.

Further, the effects of drought on water resources, grain resources, and vegetation resources were also analyzed using data spatialization methods, slope trend analysis, and Pearson correlation analysis. The results showed that:① The spatial distribution of drought in the Yellow River basin was stepped from southeast to northwest, and 60.

We herein report the construction of an advanced layered Fe-doped NaMnO·HO (Fe-NMO·HO) cathode to promote zinc-ion storage performance and electrochemical stability. An outstanding capacity of 102 mA h g at a high current density of 20 A g and a long cycle life of 6000 cycles have been achieved, comparable to the state-of-the-art manganese oxide-based cathodes.

Specifically, the Bottleneck in the C2f module of the YOLOv8n backbone network and neck network are replaced with Fasternet-EMA Block and Fasternet Block, respectively. The Fasternet Block is designed based on PConv (Partial Convolution) to reduce model parameter count and computational load efficiently.
