Green innovation has become an important combination of high-quality economic growth and ecological sustainability. In this paper, the super-efficiency network SBM model was used to measure the two-stage green innovation efficiency of the industrial technology research and development (R&D) stage and achievement transformation stage in China (30 provinces and cities) from 2009 to 2019. The results show the following points. Firstly, in terms of temporal series, the efficiency of technology R&D and achievement transformation has experienced three stages of “upward-declining-revitalized period”. Secondly, in terms of spatial trend, the industrial green innovation efficiency gradually increases from northwest to southeast. The high-efficiency areas are still concentrated in the eastern coastal region, with a clear trend towards balanced development in the central and western regions. Finally, openness, industrial structure, government technical expenditures, enterprise scale, and environmental regulation all have different degrees of impact on the efficiency of green innovation in the two stages. Based on the above, this paper is helpful for the government to formulate laws and regulations and coordinate the level of regional economic development and clarify the spatio-temporal characteristics and influencing factors of the efficiency of green innovation.

Abstract Background: Hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) is one of the common intestinal infectious diseases worldwide, which caused a huge economic and disease burden in many counties. In China, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention included the HFMD into the Class C reported infectious diseases. The average annual growth rate of HFMD is 16.43%. Shaanxi is a special region which across three temperature zones. Hence, in this study, the spatial-temporal analysis of Shaanxi would reveal the characteristics of distribution of HFMD and explore the related determinants of HFMD.Methods: The county-level and municipal data of Shaanxi province from 2009 to 2018 were applied to research the spatio-temporal characteristics of HFMD and its meteorological determinants. Time series analysis and spatial autocorrelation analysis were applied to analyze the spatial-temporal characteristics of HFMD. This study used spatial econometric panel models to explore the relationship between HFMD and meteorological factors.Results: The incidence rate of HFMD displayed no long-term changing pattern from temporal perspective. The high incidence rate of HFMD were observed from June to September, which is the season with a climate characterized by heavy rain, high temperature, and high humidity. The high spot is mainly located in central region in Shaanxi. The Low-low clusters were mainly found in Northern Shaanxi. As for the meteorological factors analyzed in this study, the waterfall, temperature and humidity in one specific and surrounding region is positive association with incidence rate of HFMD in specific region.Conclusion: The results could be applied by government and general public to take effective measures to prevent diseases. The region-targeted policies could be enacted and implemented in the future. The local government needs take responsible for the health management of immigration and mobile population. The citizen should cultivate good living habits such as hand-washing habit and the eating habit.

Abstract Based on the daily average temperature data of 6 meteorological stations in the Hexi Oasis, Gansu Province, where the chimonophilous crop distribution area is located from 1960 to 2019. The spatio-temporal characteristics and influencing factors of the starting and ending days of the growth period, the number of days, and the effective accumulated temperature (Abbreviated as EAT) of the growing period of the chimonophilous crop in the Hexi Oasis was analyzed by Using climate tendency rate, ArcGIS inverse distance weighted interpolation, Mann-Kendall test, Morlet wavelet analysis, principal component analysis and correlation analysis methods, etc. The results show that there are significant differences in the spatio-temporal changes in the climate growth period of the chimonophilous crop in the Hexi Oasis. It shows a trend of decreasing from southeast to northwest, except for Yongchang (the highest elevation and lowest temperature in Yongchang). The M-K test showed that the growth period termination date was the most sensitive response to climate warming. Wavelet analysis shows the climatic growth period changes of cool-loving crops in the study area coincide with the cycles of atmospheric circulation 2-4a, El Niño 2-7a and sunspot activity quasi-11a.The changes are affected not only by 74 atmospheric circulation factors, but also by geographic parameters such as latitude and altitude, and monthly average temperature. This study provides scientific decision-making and basis support for the development of food and crop security and the improvement of the ability to withstand disasters in the Hexi Oasis. At the same time, it is of important theoretical significance and practical value for coping with climate change and proposing countermeasures for disaster prevention and mitigation.
