Spatial and temporal evolution of ecotourism development level and its driving factors under the perspective of sustainable development: the case of Ili river valley. by Pengkai Zhao, Haojie Sun, Jiangling Hu, Xinyu Zhao, Changying Song, Xueting Xu

“…The data indicates that: (1) With a notably diverse spatial structure, the growth rate of ecotourism varies among the counties and cities in the Ili River Valley. (2) The level of comprehensive ecotourism development is continuously improving, with significant gradient differences in spatial distribution, forming a dynamic spatial pattern of 'high in the north and low in the south.' (3) The standard deviation ellipses of each year show a "northwest - southeast" direction, and basically form a stable migration rule from northwest to southeast; (4) The level of tourism income and economic development have a significant impact on the development of ecotourism, and the influence of tourism reception capacity and industrial structure level is gradually enhanced, while the promotion effect of ecological environment level is not significant. …”

Capture of neuroepithelial-like stem cells from pluripotent stem cells provides a versatile system for in vitro production of human neurons. by Anna Falk, Philipp Koch, Jaideep Kesavan, Yasuhiro Takashima, Julia Ladewig, Michael Alexander, Ole Wiskow, Jignesh Tailor, Matthew Trotter, Steven Pollard, Austin Smith, Oliver Brüstle

“…Here we show that long-term self-renewing neuroepithelial-like stem cells (lt-NES cells) derived from 3 hESC and 6 iPSC lines in two independent laboratories exhibit consistent characteristics including i) continuous expandability in the presence of FGF2 and EGF; ii) stable neuronal and glial differentiation competence; iii) characteristic transcription factor profile; iv) hindbrain specification amenable to regional patterning; v) capacity to generate functionally mature human neurons. …”

Analysis of the spatiotemporal evolution of birth rates and influencing factors in the Yangtze River Basin. by Xiujuan Jiang, Qianhua Pan, Wei Xu, Jingyuan Sun, Sicheng Chen

“…The three types of birth rate areas show the characteristics of the spatiotemporal pattern of continuous spread and development. (3) The aging rate, per capita GDP, proportion of primary industry output value, proportion of tertiary industry output value, female illiteracy rate, per capita disposable income, per capita consumption expenditure, urbanization rate, proportion of higher education, juvenile dependency ratio, and elderly dependency ratio have different degrees of influence on the birth rate.…”
