This volume contains the codebook and documentation for the dataset of the 1982 Third Chinese Pom&.tion Census . The dataset is distributed by the China Statistics Archives (CSA) at the University of Illinois at Chicago in collaboration with the China Statistical Information and Consultancy Service Center (CSICSC). Chapter One deals with “Technical Documentation” which contains the sampling design, number of domestic households and individuals, the census form and explanations of concepts and terms. Chapter Two provides the codes used in the dataset. Chapter Three provides the logical structure of the dataset. 111 1.1 Sampling Design and Evaluation of the 1% Sample 1982 Population Census of China There are two types of household records in the 1% Sample 1982 Population Census of China: the domestic household and the collective household. The sample of domestic household was drawn based on records of one-in-one hundred systemically selected households and individual records by taking every 100th households and all of their family members from the original 1982 Population Census of China after a random start. The sample of collective households was taken from every 100th individual in all collective households. Thus some collective households with less than 100 members were not sampled. To estimate the population parameter the ordering of the population from which the systemic sample was drawn is important. When the population is ordered randomly the the procedure for estimating population parameter is equal to a simple random sample. In the one-in-one hundred systemic sample of the 1982 Population Census of China the population was listed in order of administrative divisions which can be considered a random order. Equations for estimating the population mean and proportion are listed below (equations are taken from Mendenhall, Ott and Scheaffer, Blementarv Survev Samnling, 1971, Belmont, California: Wadsworth Publishing Company, Inc. : 1. Estimator of the population mean p : n C Yi i =I p = ysy = (1) n Where ysy is the mean of systemic sample which is calculated by the sum of each sample observation divided by sample size n. 2. Estimated variance of ysy: Vysy) = ((N-n)lN) x (s2/n) (2.1) where It elf-YsY)~ i=l 2 S= (2.2) n-l 3. Bound on the error of estimation: The quantity ((N-n)/N) is called the finite population correction @c). When n remains small relative to the population size N, thefpc is close to unity. In this dataset since n=l%N and ((N-n)/N) = .99 thefpc can be ignored. 2 . 4. Estimator of the population proportion p: i Yi id PSP =yv= (4) n 5. Estimated variance of PSY: WPSS) = ((PSY x cr.&(W) x (WON (5) where qsy=l-Psy. 6. Bound on the error of estimation (6) Again we can ignore thefpc, ((N-n)/N), in this dataset since the n is small. 3 1.2 NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS AND INDIVIDUALS IN THE 1982 CHINESE CENSUS TAPES Number of Domestic Households 1 Number of Individuals From From the From Tapes From From the Total Tapes as% of Tapes Total token from the “1982 Population' Households Population* Po@allon conouo of fromthe chino” (Pg. 25.

Received: 18 June 2020; Accepted: 25 July 2020; Published: 28 July 2020 Abstract: Land use/cover change (LUCC) and ecosystem service functions are current hot topics in global research on environmental change. A comprehensive analysis and understanding of the land use changes and ecosystem services, and the equilibrium state of the interaction between the natural environment and the social economy is crucial for the sustainable utilization of land resources. We used remote sensing image to research the LUCC, ecosystem service value (ESV), and ecological economic harmony (EEH) in eight main urban areas of Harbin in China from 1990 to 2015. The results show that, in the past 25 years, arable land—which is a part of ecological land—is the main source of construction land for urbanization, whereas the other ecological land is the main source of conversion to arable land.

  • Optimization Path of the Freight Channel of Heilongjiang Province
    2017 3rd International Conference on Education and Social Development (ICESD 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-444-8 Optimization Path of the Freight Channel of Heilongjiang Province to Russia 1,a,* 2,b Jin-Ping ZHANG , Jia-Yi YUAN 1Harbin University of Commerce, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China 2International Department of Harbin No.9 High School, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China [email protected], [email protected] * Corresponding author Keywords: Heilongjiang Province, Russia, Freight Channel, Optimization Path. Abstract. Heilongjiang Province becomes the most important province for China's import and export trade to Russia due to its unique geographical advantages and strong complementary between industry and product structure. However, the existing problems in the trade freight channel layout and traffic capacity restrict the bilateral trade scale expansion and trade efficiency improvement. Therefore, the government should engage in rational distribution of cross-border trade channel, strengthen infrastructure construction in the border port cities and node cities, and improve the software support and the quality of service on the basis of full communication and coordination with the relevant Russian government, which may contribute to upgrade bilateral economic and trade cooperation. Introduction Heilongjiang Province is irreplaceable in China's trade with Russia because of its geographical advantages, a long history of economic and trade cooperation, and complementary in industry and product structures. Its total value of import and export trade to Russia account for more than 2/3 of the whole provinces and nearly 1/4 of that of China. After years of efforts, there exist both improvement in channel infrastructure, layout and docking and problems in channel size, functional positioning and layout, as well as important node construction which do not match with cross-border freight development.

  • Prevalence of Hypertension and Associated Risk Factors in Dehui City of Jilin Province in China
    Journal of Human Hypertension (2015) 29,64–68 & 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9240/15 www.nature.com/jhh ORIGINAL ARTICLE Prevalence of hypertension and associated risk factors in Dehui City of Jilin Province in China QWei1,7, J Sun2,7, J Huang3, H-Y Zhou2, Y-M Ding4, Y-C Tao5, S-M He2, Y-L Liu2 and J-Q Niu6 To evaluate the prevalence, awareness, treatment and control of hypertension and its risk factors in Dehui City of Jilin Province in China. The study was performed among 3778 subjects (male ¼ 1787) in Dehui city, Jilin Province of China. The subjects completed a standard questionnaire, biochemical tests and physical examinations. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for hypertension. The prevalence of hypertension was 41.00% in this area. The awareness, treatment and the control of hypertension were 21.82, 15.56 and 1.10%, respectively, with city areas being significantly higher than rural areas. Significant risk factors for hypertension included age, sex, central obesity, alcohol consumption, family history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, education level and type of work. Further analysis showed that diabetes for urban participants and cigarette smoking for rural participants were risk factors but were not statistically significant at the multi-variate level. The prevalence of hypertension in Dehui Ctiy of Jilin Province is higher than in other areas of China. In addition, rates of awareness and treatment of the condition are much lower than in other populations, with the control rate only 1.10%.

  • Summary of Mass Lead Poisoning Incidents
    Summary of Mass Lead Poisoning Incidents Lead has been used for thousands of years in products including paints, gasoline, cosmetics, and even children’s toys, but lead battery production is by far the largest consumer of lead. Although chronic exposures to lead affect both children and adults, there have also been many reports of localized mass acute lead poisonings. Below we outline some of the largest lead poisoning incidents related to the manufacturing and recycling of lead batteries that have been reported since 1987. Shanghai, China 2011 Twenty-five children living in Kanghua New Village were found to have elevated blood lead levels. At least ten of these children were hospitalized for treatment. As a result, the Shanghai Environmental Protection Bureau shut down two factories for additional investigations that are reportedly located approximately 700 meters away from the village. One of the two factories was a lead battery manufacturing plant operated by the U.S. company, Johnson Controls. The other, Shanghai Xinmingyuan Automobile Accessory Co., made lead-containing wheel weights. Jiangsu Province, China 2011 One-third of the employees at Taiwanese-owned Changzhou Ri Cun Battery Technology Company in eastern Jiangsu province were found with elevated BLLs between 28- 48ug/dL. All employees of the lead battery plant were tested after a pregnant employee discovered through testing her BLL was twice the level of concern. Production at the factory was temporarily suspended. Yangxunqiao, Zhejiang Province, China 2011 More than 600 people (including 103 children) working in and living around a cluster of aluminum foil fabricating workshops were found with excessive blood lead levels (BLLs).
