    12th ISCO Conference Beijing 2002 Studies on the Optimum Model of Forest for Soil and Water Conservation Li Shuren, Zhao Yong and Yan Zhiping School of Forestry, Henan Agricultural University Zhengzhou, 450002 E-mail: [email protected] Song Xuan The Institute of Applied Ecology, The Chinese Academy of Science,Shenyang, 110015 Abstract: This paper dealt with the soil and water conservation benefits on different kinds of vegetation along the Yangtze River valley in Xixia county, Henan Province. The four kinds of vegetation are dense trees with middle-dense shrub and loose grass(DMDL), loose trees with middle-dense shrub and dense grass(LMDD), dense shrub and middle-dense grass(DMD) and gradient farmland(GF). The results show that the annual surface runoff and soil erosion were 33.94 mm and 3.603 t hm-2 on DMDM; 2.885 mm and no soil erosion on LMDD; 21.035 mm and 0.384 t hm-2 on DMD; 36.110 mm and 32.657 t hm–2 on GF. The soil and water conservation benefits on the four types of vegetation were in the following order(from high to low): LMDD > DMD > DMDL > GF. And also the soil and water conservation benefits have the following order, grass > shrub > tree, based on the comprehensive analysis of the height between canopies and ground, and the force of rain dropping on the soil. LMDD was suggested to be the optimum structure model for obtaining the ideal soil and water conservation benefits and the best usage of different vegetation. Keyword: forest, soil and water conservation, optimum model, vegetation The effects of forest on soil and water was a important problem for sustainable development.

  • 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution, which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and the guidance of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, states that citizens have freedom of religious belief but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” and does not define “normal.” Despite Chairman Xi Jinping’s decree that all members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) must be “unyielding Marxist atheists,” the government continued to exercise control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions – Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to the five state- sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices. There were several reports of individuals committing suicide in detention, or, according to sources, as a result of being threatened and surveilled. In December Pastor Wang Yi was tried in secret and sentenced to nine years in prison by a court in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, in connection to his peaceful advocacy for religious freedom.

  • Silencing Complaints Chinese Human Rights Defenders March 11, 2008
    Silencing Complaints Chinese Human Rights Defenders March 11, 2008 Chinese Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) Web: http://crd-net.org/ Email: [email protected] One World, One Dream: Universal Human Rights Silencing Complaints: Human Rights Abuses Against Petitioners in China A report by Chinese Human Rights Defenders In its Special Series on Human Rights and the Olympics Abstract As China prepares to host the Olympics, this report finds that illegal interception and arbitrary detention of petitioners bringing grievances to higher authorities have become more systematic and extensive, especially in the host city of the Olympic Games, Beijing. ―The most repressive mechanisms are now being employed to block the steady stream of petitioners from registering their grievances in Beijing. The Chinese government wants to erase the image of people protesting in front of government buildings, as it would ruin the meticulously cultivated impression of a contented, modern, prosperous China welcoming the world to the Olympics this summer,‖ said Liu Debo,1 who participated in the investigations and research for this report. Petitioners, officially estimated to be 10 million, are amongst those most vulnerable to human rights abuses in China today. As they bring complaints about lower levels of government to higher authorities, they face harassment and retaliation. Officially, the Chinese government encourages petitions and has an extensive governmental bureaucracy to handle them. In practice, however, officials at all levels of government have a vested interest in preventing petitioners from speaking up about the mistreatment and injustices they have suffered. The Chinese government has developed a complex extra-legal system to intercept, confine, and punish petitioners in order to control and silence them, often employing brutal means such as assault, surveillance, harassment of family members, kidnapping, and incarceration in secret detention centers, psychiatric institutions and Re-education through Labor camps.
