Although previous studies have posited that the high-density development of urban buildings and infrastructure contributes to urban flooding, empirical analyses and in-depth investigations into the interaction factors have remained limited. This study aims to analyze the influence and moderating effect of high-density development on urban flooding. Thus far, various land-use and interaction factors related to urban development density have been explored. Subsequently, the urban watershed was selected, utilizing panel data 2002 to 2017, and employing the Tobit model for analysis. The analysis revealed that high-density development had an adverse effect on urban flooding and that the runoff characteristics of high-density development were not limited to those of impervious surfaces. The horizontal and vertical aspects of dense buildings and structures acted as sub-watersheds that increased the time to reach peak flow. Moreover, high-density development had a moderating effect in low-lying areas. The results of this study underscore the necessity of urban disaster prevention planning to consider the direct and indirect effects, as well as the runoff characteristics, of high-density development on urban flooding.

Linkage Mapping and Identification of Candidate Genes for Cold Tolerance in Rice (Oryza Sativa L.) at the Bud Bursting Stage.

Rice (N Y)

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Crop Gene Resources and Breeding, Institute of Crop Sciences, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Beijing, 100081, China.

Rice is highly sensitive to low temperatures, making cold stress a significant factor limiting its growth, especially during the bud bursting stage. To address this, an RIL population derived from a cross between cold-tolerant and cold-sensitive rice varieties was used to identify nine QTLs linked to cold tolerance under temperatures of 4 ℃, 5 °C, and 6 ℃ using a high-density genetic map. One candidate gene, LOC_Os07g44410, was identified through gene function annotation, haplotype analysis, and qRT-PCR, with two main haplotypes (Hap1 and Hap2) showing distinct phenotypic differences.

Environmental Impacts of Cultured Meat: A Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle Assessment.

ACS Food Sci Technol

January 2025

Department of Food Science and Technology, University of California, Davis, California 95616, United States.

Interest in animal cell-based meat (ACBM) as an environmentally conscious replacement for livestock production has been increasing; however, a life cycle assessment (LCA) for the existing production methods of ACBM has not been conducted. Currently, ACBM products are being produced at a small scale, but ACBM companies are intending to scale-up production. Updated findings from recent technoeconomic assessments (TEAs) of ACBM were utilized to perform an LCA of near-term ACBM production.

Context: Metabolic disorders are a growing global concern, especially in developed countries, due to their increasing prevalence. Serum lipid profiles, including triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), are commonly used clinical biomarkers for monitoring the progression of these metabolic abnormalities. In recent decades, hydrogen-rich water (HRW) has gained attention as a safe and effective treatment, with regulatory effects on lipid peroxidation and inflammatory responses in clinical trials.
