Two gobiconodontid and two triconodontid species have previously been reported from the upper Lower Cretaceous Shahai and Fuxin formations. Here we describe two additional eutriconodontans from the formations, Fuxinoconodon changi gen. et sp. nov. and ?Gobiconodontidae gen. et sp. indet. This new species is attributed to the Gobiconodontidae, characterized by having an enlarged first lower incisor, reduction in the number of incisors and premolariforms, proportionally large cusps b and c being well distant from cusp a on the molariforms, presence of a labial cingulid, and a unique mixed combination of molariform characters seen on either the first or the second, but not both, generations of molariforms in Gobiconodon.

  • Evaluation of Water Resources Carrying Capacity Based on Cultivated Land and Urban Construction Scale -- a Case Study of Jinzhou City
    E3S Web of Conferences 248, 03010 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202124803010 CAES 2021 Evaluation of water resources carrying capacity based on cultivated land and urban construction scale -- a case study of Jinzhou City GAO Mengmeng1, Li Xiaolei1,a ,Yang Nan1, Sun Xiubo2, Liu Qiong1, Wang Yi1 1 China Institute of Geo-Environmental Monitoring, Beijing, China 2 Shenyang Geological Survey Center, CGS, Shenyang, China Abstract. Water resources play an important role in the natural environment, which is an irreplaceable resource for the survival and development of human society. Taking water resources as the research object, combined with the demand of social and economic development for water resources, this paper carried out the research on the evaluation method of cultivated land scale and urban construction scale under the constraints of water resources in Jinzhou. The results show that: the scale of cultivated land is 7215.98- 7843.20km2, which is in surplus. Heishan County has the largest scale of cultivated land and Guta District has the smallest scale of cultivated land. The urban construction land scale is 229.89-279.02 km2, which is in surplus. Taihe District and Yixian County are overloaded, and the rest are surplus. The evaluation results can support the determination and decomposition of planning objectives and indicators, and provide an important scientific basis for the implementation of local land spatial planning. 1 Introduction Water resources play an important role in the natural system.Naimi Ait-Aoudia[6]evaluated the sustainable environment, which is an irreplaceable resource for the population of Algiers in terms of water resources and survival and development of human society[1-3].
