With this rise comes a vast array of new opportunities for U.S. businesses to cash in on China’s deep wealth and opportunity, while helping to make the U.S. and its businesses strong economic partners with Asian nations. The region is composed of three major areas: the Municipality of Shanghai, Zhejiang Province, and Jiangsu Province. The total area is 81,300 square miles (210,700 square kilometers)77. Population-wise, the region is home to over 105 million inhabitants78. It is considered to be the world’s sixth-largest economic center79. This factbook is designed to provide basic updated information specifically on the Yangtze River Delta Region so that businesses and corporations that are interested in eastern central China’s market have a baseline of information from which to launch their investments. This book specifically highlights six major booming cities of the region: Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Ningbo, and Wuxi. China and the Yangtze River Delta region are rapidly growing, developing, and changing, and U.S. businesses will only be able to get ahead through careful research and understanding of the region before diving into China’s complex market.

An understanding of the spatial and temporal changes of estuarine islands is needed for environmental change monitoring and assessment in estuarine and coastal areas. Such information can also help us better understand how estuarine islands respond to sea level rise in the context of global warming. The temporal changes of two estuarine islands in Shanghai near the Yangtze River Estuary were obtained using Landsat TM (Thematic Mapper) and ETM+ (Enhanced Thematic Mapper) images from 1987 to 2016 on an annual scale. First, a composite image was generated by using the multi-temporal Landsat images for each year. Then, a modified normalized difference water index (MNDWI) was applied to the annual estuarine island maps using a threshold segmentation method.
