Special orthogonal lateral-intake pumping stations on coastal plains face severe lateral deflection and recirculation in the approach channel and forebay. Their underlying evolutionary mechanisms remain unclear, and conventional rectification methods cause substantial hydraulic losses. Using numerical simulations and hydraulic model experiments, this study investigates these unfavorable flow patterns and proposes an original C...

China faces increasing health risks from climate change. The structure and function of the eye and vision were affected by extreme heat and cold. The study aimed to evaluate the impacts of heatwaves and cold spells on glaucoma. A national cross-sectional study of the Rural Epidemiology for Glaucoma (REG-China) was conducted in ten provinces of China, and 36,081 adults aged 40 years or more were included. Glaucoma signs were as...
