The state’s guiding principle to promote rural reform and development explicitly pointed out that the basic need is to accelerate this new pattern of urban-rural social and economic integration, and to uphold principles of industry fostering agriculture, cities supporting the countryside. Thus, giving more to, taking less from and loosening control of the countryside can help fulfill the important strategy of setting up a new relationship between urban and rural areas in order to speed up the modernization of China. Located in the inland of China, Wuwei, because of its lack of mineral resources, is much slower in the economic development than the areas in the east of China, and even slower than the general development of other areas in the West of China and other parts of Gansu. It is really high time for Wuwei to find out a regional economic development pattern suitable to itself, for if it cannot develop faster, it will lag far behind. With the help of the central and provincial governments, Wuwei City has obtained this chance to apply for a loan from the World Bank (2013 Fiscal Year). The loan will mainly be used to quicken the pace of the interior transportation construction in Liangzhou District and Gulang, improve its road nets, enhance the service function thereof, guide the cross-border traffic, and improve the life and the ecological environment of residents along the roads. The World Bank Loan Project of Infrastructure Construction for the Urban and Rural Overall Development in the Core Area of Wuwei Experiment District, Gansu i Province, satisfies the requirements of the World Bank for its loan support, is in line with the policy of speeding up the urbanization of the Chinese type proposed at the 18th CPC National Congress, and is in accordance with the plan for the regional economy and social development. The construction of the infrastructure facilities in the experiment district for urban and rural development will not only create more jobs for the local residents, but also enable them to share the benefits from the public infrastructure construction and service development by enhancing the equalization, rationalization and sharing level of the public infrastructure facilities in urban and rural areas, and thus will play an important role in improving the infrastructure of regional transportation and the living environment of both the urban and rural dwellers, helping the local people gradually change their old way of living, accelerating the integration of urban and rural development, and promoting the leap-forward development of the economy and society. Therefore, it is really very necessary to carry out the construction project. Entrusted by the Executive Office of the Leading Group of the World Bank Loan Infrastructure Construction Project for the Urban and Rural Overall Development in the Core Area of Wuwei City, Gansu Kedi Engineering Consultation Co., Ltd. Compiled The Feasibility Study Report on The World Bank Loan Project of Infrastructure Construction for the Urban and Rural Overall Development in the Core Area of Wuwei Experiment District. ii Contents PREFACE ·············································································································································· I 1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION ···················································································································· 1 1.1 PROJECT BACKGROUND ························································································································· 1 1.2 PROJECT DESIGN ································································································································· 2 2.

Eliminating poverty and achieving common prosperity are the major tasks for China to build a well-off society in an all-round way. Based on the evaluation results of quality of rural life (QRL) and relative poverty index (RPI), this paper identifies and classifies the poor objects using importance–Performance analysis (IPA) method and poverty degree model. The results were as following: (1) QRL has obvious regional differences, and its value gradually decreases from west to east, which is opposite to the spatial distribution pattern of RPI. In areas with high QRL value, the RPI is lower. (2) Fifty counties and districts are clustered in the second quadrant of IPA quadrant map, i.e., Low QRL-High RPI, and the lower quality-of-life corresponds to the higher degree of relative poverty. (3) The coincidence between the poverty-stricken counties and the poverty-stricken counties of the country identified as 84.48% by IPA method, which indicates that the accuracy of poverty delineation based on income is high.

Shiyang Watershed Management Headquarters, Wuwei, Gansu 733000, China 4. The Management Committee in RenShouShan, Anning District, Lanzhou, Gansu 730000, China Abstract — This paper explores ecological management of sustainable environment in arid settlement of Downstream Shiyang river basin. We study ecological evolution and tracking of venation to: i) analyze quantitatively the evolution mechanism and venation of ecological environment in different periods of settlement, ii) dissect the issue of ecological management in recent settlements, and iii) propose sustainable development model. The results show that ecological conservation mainly relies on: i) two natural river barrier in east (BaiTing river) and west (Daxi river), and ii) protection effect of rump lake in Minqin oasis. Because of frequent uncontrolled activities of the population in the upper and middle basin of Shiyang river, as well as taking too much from natural resources and energy, the arid area of its downstream faces: i) the reality of drying up of natural lakes, ii) vanish of rump lake, and iii) deterioration of ecological environment. In this paper, the author proposes the Daxi river output model and ecological management model. Keywords- Shiyang river basin; Settlement environment; ecological evolution; sustained development; management model.

Besides, urban-rural expansion intensity index and urban-rural expansion speed index were also used to analyze urban and rural spatial structure of Shiyang River Basin. GIS technology combined with road grade and length was used to calculate the shortest time distance between urban and rural nods. Spatial association and interaction between urban and rural systems were analyzed through the time and distance, and the spatial structure changes and influential patterns of the Shiyang River Basin were discussed. The results showed that: (1) the urban-rural spatial expansion was dominated by central cities, the small towns had cluster distribution while the large towns were scattering.

  • The Constraints and Driving Forces of Oasis Development in Arid Region: a Case Study of the Hexi Corridor in Northwest China Qiang Bie1,2 & Yaowen Xie1,3,4*
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The constraints and driving forces of oasis development in arid region: a case study of the Hexi Corridor in northwest China Qiang Bie1,2 & Yaowen Xie1,3,4* The oasis, a special landscape with the integration of nature and humanity in the arid region, has undergone an enormous transformation during the past decades. To gain a better understanding of the tradeof between economic growth and oases stability in the arid land, we took the oases in the Hexi Corridor as a case to explore the constraints of oases development and the driving factors of oases expansion. The dynamic changes and spatial distribution patterns underwent by the oases were examined using multispectral remote sensing imagery. The constraints of oasis development in arid land were investigated by the grid-transformed model, as well as the index system of driving forces was analyzed using the grey incidence model based on the data from statistics yearbooks. The oasis area in the Hexi Corridor had tremendous changes expanded 40% from 1986 to 2015, the stable oasis area was 9062 km2, while the maximum area reached 16,374 km2. The constraints for oases of topography, hydrology and heat condition are as follow: The elevation of oasis ranged from 1000 to 1800 m, peaked in 1500 m; the slope of oasis distribution was fatter than 3 degrees; the aspect of oases on slope land concentrated in northeast and north, accounting for more than 60%. The main driving forces of oasis spatial expansion in the arid region were population, water resource, economy, policies, and other factors.
