    China's financially dominated ecological compensation system is now facing great challenges due to the fund limitation. It is important, with the market-based instruments, to reconstruct China's ecological protection and compensation system for the continued advancement of the ecological conservation and the construction of the eco-civilization. This paper aims to clarify the boundaries and the associations of the ecological protection, the ecological restoration, and the ecological compensation. Based on the principle of "spoilers to make compensation, protectors to get benefits and beneficiaries to pay the cost", this paper proposes a basic ecological compensation system that compensates the ecological land occupied and damaged by the economic construction and rewards various actions of the ecological conservation with the goal of a net gain for the biodiversity. Optimizing the right-based compensation mechanism and improving the revenue-based compensation mechanism are the fundamental routines to establish a sustainable market-oriented, diversified ecological compensation system.

    The 21st century is the century of the ocean, and the prosperity and the decline of a country are very much related to the ocean. With a review of the marine science and technology policy of the United States since the Cold War, it is found that this policy has the characteristics of systematic coordination, wide coverage and prominent emphasis. In contrast, the development of China's marine science and technology policy and the marine development are not in very good shape, with a decentralized management system, the insufficient innovation and achievement and transformation capacity, with only a single channel of the fund input, the inadequate marine talent training, and the imperfect priority research plan. In order to realize the dream of becoming a powerful ocean country, we should strengthen the ability of the overall planning and the coordination in the policy formulation of the marine science and technology; improve the ability of the independent innovation and the conversion rate of the scientific and technological achievements; pay attention to the establishment of the multi-channel financing mechanism, the lifelong marine education and the high-end talent training; improve the priority research plans and strengthen the marine ecological and environmental protection.

    The outbreak of COVID-19 has brought great damage to people's lives and health, national economic growth, and harmony and stability of society. Prevention and control tasks of COVID-19 are urgent yet inseparable from technological support. Based on the integrated mobilization and scientific and technological innovation theory, an mobilization of science and technology mode for reallocating the scientific and technological resources and unifying the strength is proposed, which is of the "top governance", "platform connecting" and "carrier implementation" development mode. In order to concentrate military and scientific advantages, this mode takes information technology as support, the business combination as entry point, and the business bus as basis, targets at establishing and improving a cross-organizational work mode. Through this mode, rapid breakthroughs can be made in virus transmission restriction, rapid disease detection, drugs vaccine development, etc. and a strong guarantee for the extraordinary supply of emergency resources supported by science and technology can be provided.

    The disruptive technology is an important force to achieve the breakthrough development of national scientific and technological innovation capabilities. Countries such as the United States and Japan have already planned for the development of the disruptive technology, and China is still in the initial exploration stage. By reviewing the experience of the disruptive technology financing in the major western developed countries, combined with the actual state of China's science and technology management, this paper finds that the bureaucracy in the scientific and technological plan management system, the traditional evaluation criteria and methods, and the attitude of "seeking quick success and instant benefits" of scientific research project management hinder the development of the disruptive technology in China. Based on the above review, this paper puts forward some suggestions, including the establishment of the special funded offices, the innovative science and technology project formation mechanisms and the funding methods, and the improvement of scientific and technological project management mechanisms, for science and technology managers at all levels.

    The registration inspection is a compulsory inspection procedure for Class II and Class III medical device products before registration and marketing. The development of China's medical device inspection service market is relatively backward, and the development of third-party inspection agencies is slow. At present, the registration and the inspection of medical devices are mainly completed by official medical device inspection institutions, with the responsibilities of the government and the enterprises being mingled, and the industry inspection demand is difficult to meet. For clarifying the relationship between the regulatory authorities and the industry enterprises, it is suggested that the current medical device registration and inspection system should be reformed by using the self inspection, the entrusted inspection and the role transformation of inspection institutions.

    Since space science is an area that draws attention from scientists, engineers, the public and the media, various expressions emerged in different contexts may bring along unnecessary ambiguities. To make the basic concepts clear, the paper conducts a textual research on the concepts about space science based on a thorough probe of the origin and comparison of space science practices worldwide. For the origin of space science, geophysics and astronomy are the first natural science disciplines to conduct space-borne research, and although space science has not been established as an independent category in China, all its disciplines are at the frontlines of their own parental disciplines, growing strong and bringing even great funding back into their parents. Besides, the paper tries to discriminate the differences between space science and space technology & applications, space science vs. fundamental astronomy, heliospheric pause vs. the boundary of sun's gravity, space science vs. deep space, and science mission vs. operational satellites. As to the future of space science endeavor in China, it proposes that more attention should be paid to space science so as to advance science satellites program and make space science as an open research system and clusters of disciplines. It is expected that the present work is beneficial to related discipline research, project application and public outreach.

    Space science payloads are instruments with definite performance, utilized to explore the unknown world. Due to lack of engineering experience the payload team, mainly composed of space scientists, is facing significantly increasing difficulty and complexity in solving key technologies of science payloads. China has thus established a management mode of payload principleinvestigator (PI) system for space science missions, with emphases on managerial requirements for key technology and payload calibration, fully carried out ground test verification, upgraded payload-management level, and payload development. All science payloads are required to be fully verified by pre-flight experiments. All the measures have significantly stimulated scientific innovation, reduced technical risks, promoted organic integration of science and technology, science and engineering, comprehensively given impetus to quality management, and promoted major achievements. Based on the successful practice of payload-management, this paper puts forward some relevant thoughts on the implementation of payload PI system and data PI system.

    As the structure of global economy changes and China's economy enters a new normal, it is difficult for manufacturing companies to entirely rely on traditional production-oriented manufacturing mode to remain competitive. It is found in practice that extension of the service link from main industry to industrial chain can bring new competitive advantage to the manufacturing enterprise, therefore, service-oriented manufacturing comes into being. According to the evaluation theory of enterprise competitiveness, this paper takes 33 typical service manufacturing enterprises in A-share as samples for empirical analysis. The results show that the impact of service elements on enterprise competitiveness is very important in the current stage and that the key direction for future development of service-oriented manufacturing is to improve the comprehensive service capability of enterprise in terms of broadening types of service projects and cultivating systematic service capability. At the same time, improving and excavating the potential of traditional competitive element indicators is another way to enhance the competitiveness of service-oriented manufacturing enterprises.

    In recent years there have been a large number of troubles caused by infectious diseases and biological safety incidents, such as the SARS in 2003 and the MERS event. In addition the rapid development of synthetic biology technology in artificial life has probably accelerated the threat of infectious diseases. The situation of biological safety is becoming more serious and looking for effective control and prevention. In this article, taking the scientific and technological progress in recent years and the related works in our laboratory in gut flora and chronic disease control and prevention we propose some new ideas of prevention and control of infectious diseases by exploring symbiotic characteristics between human and microorganism. It may be an alternative choice for us to understand that the microorganisms should also have reasonable rights to live in the environment. The reasonable relationship between human beings and symbiotic microorganism should be a win-win mode through protecting and optimizing the symbiotic microorganism system to improve human immunity. Therefore, it is important to provide new ideas for prevention and control of infectious diseases and biological safety by living with microorganisms in peace.

    The core issue of present development of agriculture and rural life in China is how to increase peasants' income considerably. Low income comes from the absent benefits from the second and tertiary industries within agriculture. The guiding principle of integrating rural primary, secondary and tertiary industries has recently been drawn up, while the achievement so far keeps unsatisfying, because of identical rural industries which can hardly form ‘pillar’ industry and because of the lack of means to promote the integration. This paper proposes an agriculture model of ‘whole links of agro-industry chain’, based on analyzing relevant experiences of ancient Chinese agriculture and foreign modern agriculture The content of such a new area includes full utilization of organic residues and wastes, growing dedicated energy plants(bushes and grasses) on marginal land, converting these two kinds of biomass into energy commodities and bio-based materials through biorefinery in situ or in outside scaled plants, as well as selling them. Such an innovative concept model is defined as ‘Second Agriculture’ in this paper.

    The mass media is the main front of the science popularization. In recent years, China's science popularization has shown a good trend of development. But at the same time, some problems still exist, such as the lack of professionalism in the science popularization, the difficulty in balancing the scientific correctness and the readability, and the insufficiency of dissemination of scientific methods and scientific spirit. The main reasons are as follows:the insufficient support to the science popularization of mass media from the whole society; the difficulty in transforming the discourse system of mass media and the scientific discourse system; the weak scientific foundation and social responsibility of some mass media practitioners. In order to improve the science popularization ability of mass media, it is suggested to increase the support for media science popularization through multiple channels, strengthen the cultivation and the training of media science personnel, and improve the quality of media science popularization through the whole process.
