Spatiotemporal Evolution, Associated Factors, and Spatial Transition of Water Resource Use Efficiency in the Yangtze River Basin

Improving water resource use efficiency (WRUE) is essential for achieving sustainable water management under increasing socioeconomic and environmental pressures. This study investigates the spatiotemporal evolution, associated factors, and spatial transition characteristics of WRUE across 11 provincial-level administr...

Mechanisms of abrupt surface subsidence induced by repeated mining beneath residual coal pillars: a case study of Tashan Coal Mine, China

Clarifying the formation mechanism of residual pillar instability and abrupt changes in surface subsidence induced by repeated mining beneath residual coal pillars is important for subsidence-hazard prevention and control under this special geological and mining condition. Based on the 8104 working face of Tashan Coal...
