The Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan (APPCAP) was promulgated in China in 2013. To explore the effectiveness of APPCAP on PM in winter in Zhengzhou, PM samples were collected in Zhengzhou Monitoring Center during December 2013 and December 2018. The chemical composition of PM was analyzed, including EC, OC, water soluble ions, and metal elements.

Toll-like receptors (s) are one type of PRR used by the innate immune system to mediate the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and promote innate and adaptive immune responses. family members 7 and TLR8 (referred to as 7/8 from herein) are endosomal transmembrane receptors that recognize purine-rich single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and bacterial DNA, eliciting an immunologic reaction to pathogens.

We analyzed the inter-deca-dal variations of stock density for Trichiurus japonicus in East China Sea (ECS) using geo-statistical approaches such as spatial autocorrelation and hotspot analysis, based on the data of T. japonicus from both bottom trawl fishery and research surveys in the open waters of ECS during 1971 to 2011, combined with the sea surface temperature (SST) and surface salinity data in the PN section in August.

A meta-analysis is used to systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of circulating miRNAs. Eligible studies were selected and the heterogeneity was assessed by subgroup analysis, meta-regression, and publication bias.

Accuracy estimation of oceanic primary productivity is of great significance in the assessment and management of fisheries resources, marine ecology systems, global change and other fields. The traditional measurement and estimation of oceanic primary productivity has to rely on in situ sample data by vessels. Satellite remote sensing has advantages of providing dynamic and eco-environmental parameters of ocean surface at large scale in real time.

Based on the catch amount data of Chinese squid jigger vessels from January to July 2006 and the sea current, sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a (chl-a) data derived from satellites, the characteristics of Illex argentinus fishing grounds, their productivity, and environment factors in southwest Atlantic were analyzed. There were two main I. argentinus fishing grounds in southwest Atlantic, one in its south part (60 degrees 30' W, 45 degrees 30' S) and the other in the north part (58 degrees 00' W, 42 degrees 00' S).
