    Description: This is an open access book. This book, first of all, introduces the new unveiled Guangdong-Macao Intensive Cooperation Zone with details as a special mode of the regional collaborative development that is committed to be mutually beneficial to both sides with different political and economic systems. China's central authorities have recently issued a masterplan for constructing the Guangdong-Macao Intensive Cooperation Zone at Hengqin Island in September 2021. As China's first and last European colony and one of China’s two special administrative regions (SARs), Macao has developed the gambling industry seven times larger than that of Las Vegas. However, the problem of the homogeneous industrial structure and the urgent need to promote sustainable economic growth by regional cooperation have been important theoretical and practical issues discussed by scholars and policy-makers. The Guangdong-Macao Intensive Cooperation Zone (ICZ) is managed under special customs supervision between two boarder lines and expected to diversify Macao’s economy. Then, this book dissects the theory of regional synergistic development and its applications in a number of international comparative and cross-interdisciplinary case studies worldwide. Finally, from the perspective of land use, transportation connection, and social service, this book thoroughly explores the challenges and strategies to implement the new cooperation model within the framework of one country, two systems, two customs, and two currencies to achieve a win–win situation using updated first-hand data collected by literature review, case study, field survey, spatial analysis, and interview.

    Notes: Abstract We make a high-precision Monte Carlo study of two- and three-dimensional self-avoiding walks (SAWs) of length up to 80,000 steps, using the pivot algorithm and the Karp-Luby algorithm. We study the critical exponentsv and 2Δ 4 −γ as well as several universal amplitude ratios; in particular, we make an extremely sensitive test of the hyperscaling relationdv = 2Δ 4 −γ. In two dimensions, we confirm the predicted exponentv=3/4 and the hyperscaling relation; we estimate the universal ratios 〈R g 2 〉/〈R e 2 〉=0.14026±0.00007, 〈R m 2 〉/〈R e 2 〉=0.43961±0.00034, and Ψ*=0.66296±0.00043 (68% confidence limits). In three dimensions, we estimatev=0.5877±0.0006 with a correctionto-scaling exponentΔ 1=0.56±0.03 (subjective 68% confidence limits). This value forv agrees excellently with the field-theoretic renormalization-group prediction, but there is some discrepancy forΔ 1. Earlier Monte Carlo estimates ofv, which were ≈0.592, are now seen to be biased by corrections to scaling. We estimate the universal ratios 〈R g 2 〉/〈R e 2 〉=0.1599±0.0002 and Ψ*=0.2471±0.0003; since Ψ*〉0, hyperscaling holds. The approach to Ψ* is from above, contrary to the prediction of the two-parameter renormalization-group theory. We critically reexamine this theory, and explain where the error lies. In an appendix, we prove rigorously (modulo some standard scaling assumptions) the hyperscaling relationdv = 2Δ 4 −γ for two-dimensional SAWs.

    Notes: Abstract Let ζ l be the critical exponent associated with the probability thatl independentN-step ordinary random walks, starting at nearby points, are mutually avoiding. Using Monte Carlo methods combined with a maximum-likelihood data analysis, we find that in two dimensions ζ2=0.6240±0.0005±0.0011 and ζ3=1.4575±0.0030±0.0052, where the first error bar represents systematic error due to corrections to scaling (subjective 95% confidence limits) and the second error bar represents statistical error (classical 95% confidence limits). These results are in good agreement with the conformal-invariance predictions ζ2=5/8 and ζ3=35/24.

    Notes: Abstract Formation of the Solar System from heterogeneous debris of a supernova (SN) that exploded 5 billion years ago was recorded as (1) inter-linked chemical and isotopic heterogeneities in meteorites, (2) higher levels of extinct nuclides in grains that trapped larger isotopic anomalies, (3) the physical properties of grains mentioned in part (2), and (4) patterns of isotopic anomalies in meteorites, in the solar-wind, and in solar flare particles. The Sun formed on the SN core, and planets formed in a rotationally-supported, equatorial disk of SN debris. Interiors of the Sun and the inner planets accreted first in a central, Fe-rich region surrounding the SN core. These were layered as condensate from other parts of the SN fell toward the condensing Sun. Elements in outer SN layers formed low-density, giant Jovian planets. Intra-solar diffusion enriches hydrogen and lighter isotopes of individual elements at the Sun's surface.

On thebasis of the present and previous results, themolecular binding abilities and selectivities forguest aliphatic alcohols of the host β-cyclodextrinderivatives (2–8) are discussed comparatively and globallyfrom the thermodynamic point of view. Thethermodynamic parameters obtained are criticalfunctions of the size/shape of aliphatic alcohols, andthe position and type of the substituent introduced tothe aromatic ring of β-cyclodextrin's sidearm,which are elucidatedin terms of the conformational, electrostatic,hydrogen-bonding, and hydrophobic effects.

    Notes: Abstract Spatial catalog service is a necessary component for distributed geographic information. Spatial catalog services provide the capabilities for organizing and managing spatial metadata. Catalog services simplify the process of data discovery in a large spatial database, facilitate data transfer, and help data fusion. This paper presents a software architecture for spatial catalog services. We first discuss the general concept of spatial catalog facilities and the logical model of spatial catalog services. We then introduce the distributed object-oriented model for spatial catalog services based on the industrial standard Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA). The core components of spatial catalog services, catalog and catalog registry, are described in detail with the CORBA Interface Definition Language (IDL). Examples are given to illustrate the structure of the catalog component and its relations with other service components in a distributed GIS. The model provides a common interface to spatial catalogs and related data no matter how catalogs are defined, what formats they use, and where they are located. It provides crucial services in a distributed Geographic Information System.

    Description: The abundance of organic matter in shales, which has a direct effect on the hydrocarbon generation potential of shales, is an important organic geochemical parameter for evaluating shale gas reservoirs. The total organic carbon content (TOC content) in shale is controlled by the abundance of original sedimentary organic matter. Therefore, it is very important to study the mechanism of organic matter enrichment in shale. In this paper, the Lower Cambrian marine shales from the Lower Yangtze region are selected as the research subject, most of which originate from a typical area well called Well JXY1. The degree of pyritization (DOP) is used to characterize the redox environment of the water body, while the P/Al ratio is used to analyze the biological productivity of paleoseawater. The paleosalinity of seawater is calculated via carbon and oxygen isotope analysis. In addition, the early Cambrian hydrothermal activities were studied by using core description; Si, Al, Fe, and Mn elemental analysis; and oxygen isotope calculations. The results show that during the early Cambrian Wangyinpu sedimentary period, the seawater was an anaerobic water body with H2S, and the oxygen concentration was approximately 0 mL/L. In the middle stages of the Wangyinpu sedimentary period, the water body had the strongest reducibility and the highest biological productivity. Moreover, the paleoocean in this period between the Yangtze plate and the Cathaysian plate was greatly affected by hydrothermal activities, with temperatures ranging from 90°C to 120°C. Active hydrothermal activities promoted high biological productivity and an anaerobic environment, both of which were conducive to the preservation and enrichment of organic matter, resulting in extremely high TOC content in the Wangyinpu shales (from 6.5% to approximately 16%).
