Comparison of thermal comfort between radiant and convective systems using field test data from the Chinese Thermal Comfort Database

Heng Du et al.

Summary: This study compares indoor thermal environment and thermal comfort between radiant and convective systems in continuous operating mode. The analysis includes hypothesis tests on thermal environment parameters and human subjective responses. The results show evidence of overheating in radiant systems during heating season, but no practical difference in air temperature between the two systems during cooling season. The study also analyzes and compares different indexes, finding little practical difference in thermal comfort vote between the two systems at the same PMV interval. The findings provide insights for thermal environment design and thermal comfort evaluation under different HVAC systems.

A meta-regression analysis of the economic value of grassland ecosystem services in China

Huifang Liu et al.

Summary: Grasslands provide a variety of ecosystem services that contribute to human well-being. However, these services are often ignored in private land use decisions due to their lack of market value. This study conducted a meta-regression analysis to evaluate the economic value of grassland ecosystem services in China. The results showed significant variations in the reported economic values, with soil fertility and erosion control being the most valuable services. Factors such as valuation methods, research characteristics, and study site characteristics influenced the estimates of grassland values. Furthermore, the study revealed geographical differences, with eastern China having higher economic values compared to western China.

Research and statistical prediction on student's pressure under different environmental conditions based on new media era

Ligerui Chen et al.

Summary: The continuous progress in new media technology has brought profound changes to the living habits and ways of Chinese people, particularly college students, due to the emergence and development of the Internet. While the Internet inundates college students with information and social pressure, it also serves as an important channel for communication, suggestions, and learning. However, the unfiltered and open nature of the Internet exposes college students to unhealthy information, affecting their physical and mental well-being. To address this issue, this paper analyzes the characteristics and environment of new media, examines the pressures faced by college students, and proposes countermeasures to manage social pressure and public opinion.
