Introduction This report documents reconstructions of long-term changes in lake status from 42 lakes from China. The present version of the Chinese Lake Status Data Base (CLSDB.1, February 2001) is part of an ongoing international effort to produce a new global lake data base (Kohfeld and Harrison, 2000) designed to be used to validate climate models. The structure of the CLSDB therefore parallels other regional data bases that have been or are being compiled under the auspices of this international effort, such as the European Lake Status Data Base (Yu and Harrison, 1995), the FSU and Mongolia Lake Status Data Base (Tarasov et al., 1994; 1996), the North American Lake Status Data Base (Harrison et al., subm.) and the North African Lake Status Data Base (Hoelzmann et al., in prep). 1.1. Lakes as Indicators of Past Climate Changes Lakes respond to changes in the local water budget (precipitation minus evaporation over the lake surface and its catchment) by changing in depth and area. On a Late Quaternary time scale, lake status (a qualitative index of changes in lake level, area or relative water depth) is in equilibrium with the changing climate (Street-Perrott and Harrison, 1985; Harrison and Digerfeldt, 1993; Cheddadi et al., 1996; Harrison

  • Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: the Emergence of the Yunnanese
    Between Winds and Clouds Bin Yang Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: The Emergence of the Yunnanese Introduction As the state began sending soldiers and their families, predominantly Han Chinese, to Yunnan, 1 the Ming military presence there became part of a project of colonization. Soldiers were joined by land-hungry farmers, exiled officials, and profit-driven merchants so that, by the end of the Ming period, the Han Chinese had become the largest ethnic population in Yunnan. Dramatically changing local demography, and consequently economic and cultural patterns, this massive and diverse influx laid the foundations for the social makeup of contemporary Yunnan. The interaction of the large numbers of Han immigrants with the indigenous peoples created a 2 new hybrid society, some members of which began to identify themselves as Yunnanese (yunnanren) for the first time. Previously, there had been no such concept of unity, since the indigenous peoples differentiated themselves by ethnicity or clan and tribal affiliations. This chapter will explore the process that led to this new identity and its reciprocal impact on the concept of Chineseness. Using primary sources, I will first introduce the indigenous peoples and their social customs 3 during the Yuan and early Ming period before the massive influx of Chinese immigrants. Second, I will review the migration waves during the Ming Dynasty and examine interactions between Han Chinese and the indigenous population. The giant and far-reaching impact of Han migrations on local society, or the process of sinicization, that has drawn a lot of scholarly attention, will be further examined here; the influence of the indigenous culture on Chinese migrants—a process that has won little attention—will also be scrutinized.

Compared to the present or preindustrial climate, 35 out of the 36 PMIP models reproduced colder-than-baseline annual temperature, with an average cooling of 0.4 K, during that period. Seasonal temperature change followed closely the change in incoming solar radiation at the top of the at- mosphere over China during the mid-Holocene. Temperature was reduced (elevated) in boreal winter and spring (summer) in all of the PMIP models, with an average of 1.4 K (1.0 K) at the national scale. Colder (warmer)-than-baseline temperatures were derived from 14 of the 16 atmosphere-only (18 of the 20 coupled) models during the mid-Holocene boreal autumn.

Received: 30 January 2019; Accepted: 2 March 2019; Published: 8 March 2019 Abstract: The Kangxiwa–Dahongliutan pegmatite field in the Western Kunlun Orogen, China contains numerous granitic pegmatites around a large granitic pluton (the Dahongliutan Granite with an age of ca. 220 to 217 Ma), mainly including barren garnet-, tourmaline-bearing pegmatites, Be-rich beryl-muscovite pegmatites, and Li-, P-rich albite-spodumene pegmatites. The textures, major element contents, and trace element concentrations of columbite-group minerals (CGM) and cassiterite from three albite-spodumene pegmatites in the region were investigated using a combination of optical microscopy, SEM, EPMA and LA-ICP-MS. The CGM can be broadly classified into four types: (1) inclusions in cassiterite; (2) euhedral to subhedral crystals (commonly exhibiting oscillatory and/or sector zoning and coexisting with magmatic cassiterite); (3) anhedral aggregates; (4) tantalite-(Fe)-ferrowodginite (FeSnTa2O8) intergrowths. The compositional variations of CGM and cassiterite are investigated on the mineral scale, in individual pegmatites and within the pegmatite group.

Plateau lakes have significant ecological value. With economic development, lake pollution and ecological degradation have become increasingly prominent. There are many ecological risk assessment methods. This article combines four different ecological risk assessment methods including single-factor pollution index, geological accumulation index method, potential risk index method, and pollution load index method to analyze the heavy metal pollution in Yangzong seabed mud as comprehensively as possible. It shows that the results obtained by different ecological risk assessment methods are slightly different. The overall trends of the geological pollution index and the single-factor pollution index are similar. In terms of time, except for the two elements of mercury and cadmium, the contents of other heavy metals in 2019 are lower than in 2018, indicating that heavy metal pollution has decreased in 2019; from the perspective of spatial distribution, In 2018, the overall pollution level on the south side of Yangzonghai was higher than that in the central and northern regions of Yangzonghai . On the whole, whether it is the potential risk index or the appropriate pollution load index, the pollution level on the south side of Yangzonghai is higher than that in the central and northern areas of Yangzonghai, and the northern area has the least pollution. ecosystems is relatively reduced, which makes the economic development of plateau lake basins face severe 1 Introduction challenges.

  • Water Resource Risk Assessment Based on Non-Point Source Pollution
    water Article Water Resource Risk Assessment Based on Non-Point Source Pollution Xiaodie Yuan and Zhang Jun * School of Architecture and Planning, Yunnan University, Kunming 650500, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: As one of the most important causes of water quality deterioration, NPS (non-point source) pollution has become an urgent environmental and livelihood issue. To date, there have been only a few studies focusing on NPS pollution conforming to the estimation, and the pollution sources are mainly concentrated in nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients. Unlike studies that only consider the intensity of nitrogen and phosphorus loads, the NPS pollution risk for the China’s Fuxian Lake Basin was evaluated in this study by using IECM (Improve Export Coefficient Model) and RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation) models to estimate nitrogen and phosphorus loads and soil loss and by using a multi-factor NPS pollution risk assessment index established on the basis of the data mentioned above. First, the results showed that the load intensity of nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in the Fuxian Lake Basin is low, so agricultural production and life are important sources of pollution. Second, the soil loss degree of erosion in the Fuxian Lake is mild, so topography is one of the most important factors affecting soil erosion. Third, the risk of NPS pollution in the Fuxian Lake Basin is at a medium level and its spatial distribution characteristics are similar to the intensity characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus loss. Nitrogen, phosphorus, sediment, and mean concentrations are important factors affecting NPS pollution.

Huang) cCollege of Resources and Environment, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China dBeijing National Day School, Beijing 100039, China Received 22 October 2018; Accepted 21 January 2019 abstract The cryosphere water resource service (CWRS) is the most significant cryosphere service (CS) to directly affect human societies. Regionalization of CWRS is an important prototype for the comprehensive regionalization of CSs. It is also a crucial cutting-edge exploration of interdisciplinary work across cryospheric science, physical geography and human geography. We constructed a quan- titative indexing system for the regionalization of CWRS along the dimensions of base–supply– demand informed by the characteristics of cryosphere resources and human use of CSs. Different levels of regionalization are subdivided using cluster analysis, the importance index of CWRS, and a location entropy model. A region in Northwest China with significant CWRS use was the study area. From the joint effects of nature and human activity, there emerge principles of regional differentia- tion that govern the regionalization of CWRS. The study area was first divided into three high level service regions according to the availability of stored cryosphere water in snow cover, frozen ground and glaciers, indicating the regulatory function of cryosphere components.
