The top 23 countries with energy consumption accounting for 80% of the worldwide total in 2020 were selected as the research objects for this study. The energy consumption structure of these countries has been compared and studied from the proportion of clean energy in primary energy, the clean utilization rate of fossil energy, and the proportion of electric energy in terminal energy consumption, and the characteristics of energy consumption intensity were also analyzed based on the energy consumption per unit GDP, capital, and unit land area. The energy consumption patterns of various countries in social-economic operation, production, and life were also discussed, combined with the characteristics of industrial structure and subsector energy consumption.

An eddy-covariance system combined with a semi-mechanistic model was used to analyze variations in gross primary productivity (GPP) and to simulate the impact of ozone (O) on GPP under different levels O concentrations over a winter wheat field in Nanjing. The results showed that GPP was higher during the middle of the growth period and low during the early and late growth periods, reaching a maximum of 40 μmol·(m·s). Using high and low ozone sensitivity settings,O-damage in 150, 100, 50 nL·L and control treatment (CK) reduced GPP by -72%, -36%, -6%, and -10%, and by -13%, -6%, -1%, and -2%, respectively.

To better understand the ozone deposition and risk assessment over agroecosystems based on the ozone flux indices, an eddy-covariance system was used for measuring the ozone deposition continuously and dynamically in a winter wheat field. We analyzed the variations in ozone concentration, total ozone flux, and stomatal and non-stomatal flux. The relationships between stomatal/non-stomatal ozone deposition velocity and the main meteorological factors were investigated.

Surface ozone pollution and its negative effects on crops and food safety have attracted the attention of many people. In this study, ozone concentration and meteorological parameters in a winter wheat field were measured from 2014 to 2016. We analyzed the variations in ozone concentration and AOT40 during the growing season for winter wheat.

As one of the main atmospheric pollutants over surface layer,researches on the increasing surface ozone concentration and its impact on main crops have become the focus of every government and the public.In this paper,based on the observations in Nanjing using the main local cultivars in China's major winter wheat producing areas,it was expected to obtain the data including ozone concentration,meteorological data and stomatal conductance by continuous observation.Stomatal conductance model was used and parameterized,combined with flux model,we analyzed the characteristics of stomatal flux in winter wheat under ozone pollution.

In this study, the concentration of O and its deposition flux over a bare soil in Nanjing in autumn were observed by using an eddy covariance system with rapid ozone analyzer. We analyzed the correlation of ozone concentration, deposition flux, and meteorological conditions in order to explore the characteristics of the variations in ozone deposition flux and deposition velocity. We also compared flux and velocity by using modeled soil resistance with observations.

Ozone is one of the main atmospheric pollutants over surface layer, and its increasing surface ozone concentration and its impact on main crops have become the focus of the public. In order to explore ozone deposition law and environmental factors influencing ozone deposition process, this study used the micrometeorological methods and carried out the experiment under natural conditions. The results showed that during the observational period (the vigorously growing season of wheat), the mean value of ozone flux was -0.

Background: Dysfunction of vascular endothelium is implicated in many pathological situations. Cytoskeleton plays an importance role in vascular endothelial permeability barrier and inflammatory response. Many Chinese herbs have the endothelial protective effect, of which, "Astragalus membranaceus" is a highly valued herb for treatment of cardiovascular and renal diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, In this study, we tested whether calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside (Calycosin), a main effective monomer component of "Astragalus membranaceus", could protect endothelial cells from bacterial endotoxin (LPS)-induced cell injury.
