This research proposes a seawater desalination system driven by photovoltaic and solar thermal energy for remote regions such as islands and seaside villages where fresh water is not accessible. The performance of this system is demonstrated through experiments, and the main concerns are the output of the photovoltaic power generation system, power quantity, water yield, and the loads under different solar irradiance and tempe...

The H5N8 avian influenza viruses have been widely circulating in wild birds and are responsible for the loss of over 33 million domestic poultry in Europe, Russia, Middle East, and Asia since January 2020. To monitor the invasion and spread of the H5N8 virus in China, we performed active surveillance by analyzing 317 wild bird samples and swab samples collected from 41,172 poultry all over the country.
