The lack of detailed COVID-19 cases at a fine spatial resolution restricts the investigation of spatial disparities of its attack rate. Here, we collected nearly one thousand self-reported cases from a social media platform during the early stage of COVID-19 epidemic in Wuhan, China. We used kernel density estimation (KDE) to explore spatial disparities of epidemic intensity and adopted geographically weighted regression (GWR) model to quantify influences of population dynamics, transportation, and social interactions on COVID-19 epidemic.

The development of fluid back-flow in commingled tight gas reservoirs was simulated using a newly designed experimental platform. The results indicate that when there is a pressure difference between different layers during commingled production from tight gas reservoir, water produced from the high-pressure layer will invade the low-pressure layer along with gas back-flow and will accumulate in the near-wellbore area.
