Ports play an important role in China's economic development. Therefore, improving the competitiveness of coastal ports is an urgent problem facing the society at present. This paper selects 12 relevant indexes to establish a relatively comprehensive evaluation index system, and uses factor analysis and cluster analysis to evaluate and rank the competitiveness of China's 30 major coastal ports. 1. Introduction Port is the gathering point and hub of water and land transportation, the distribution center of import and export of industrial and agricultural products and foreign trade products, and the important node of logistics. With the continuous innovation of transportation mode and the rapid development of science and technology, ports play an increasingly important role in driving the economy, with increasingly rich functions and more important status and role. Meanwhile, the competition among ports is also increasingly fierce. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and the promotion of "the Belt and Road Initiative", China's coastal ports have also been greatly developed. China has more than 18,000 kilometers of coastline, with superior natural conditions. With the introduction of the policy of reformation and opening, the human conditions are also excellent.

Received: 11 October 2019; Accepted: 22 November 2019; Published: 3 December 2019 Abstract: Marine functional zoning (MFZ) is a type of marine spatial planning (MSP) implemented widely in China and one of the three major systems defined in the Law of the PRC on the Administration of Sea Area Use. China adopts “top-down management” for MFZ, in which upper management levels impose clear constraints and restrictions on lower levels. However, this approach has led to issues, such as a rigid MFZ classification system and unreasonable re-allocation of control indicators in the process of assigning MFZ classification at different levels. In this study, we propose and demonstrate the coordination of MFZ revision in terms of the classification system and the re-allocation of control indicators in the coastal city of Putian, China. The results show that the proposed measures could help realize the effective and reasonable coordination of MFZ revisions at the provincial and municipal levels, providing a reference for such MFZ revisions in other regions of China and the coordination of MSP between different levels in other countries.

    10TH CONFERENCE OF THE PACIFIC RIM COMMUNITY DESIGN NETWORK: AGENCY AND RESILIENCE 15‐17 December 2016 The Black-faced Spoonbill in Xinghua Bay, China: A Catalyst for Responsible Development BEJARANO, Cristina University of California, Berkeley 230 Wurster Hall #1820, Berkeley CA 94720 USA [email protected] CUNDY, Fiona SAVE International c/o Earth Island Institute, 2150 Allston Way Suite 460, Berkeley CA 94704 USA [email protected] SCHUBERT, Derek SAVE International c/o Earth Island Institute, 2150 Allston Way Suite 460, Berkeley CA 94704 USA [email protected] Abstract In 2016, SAVE International (SAVE) worked with a research team from the University of California, Berkeley, and Chinese scholars, to study the economic, environmental, and political factors around Xinghua Bay, which is part of the 2015-2030 Fuzhou New Area Plan. This plan seeks to attract 180,000 new residents and develop new roads and buildings by filling large swaths of the bay and destroying many of the villages, farms, historic sites, and wetlands, including rich tidal mudflats that support many species of migratory birds. Among these birds is the endangered Black-faced Spoonbill (Platalea minor), which has inspired SAVE's work in planning and advocacy since 1997. SAVE's successes have highlighted the importance of science in designing sustainable ecosystems and communities, especially in quickly urbanizing settings. The Black-faced Spoonbill's population is not yet self-sustaining and these birds need more places to live, but their coastal habitat throughout the East Asian-Australasian Flyway is facing threats from development that does not value wetlands or local cultures.

    Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals Secretariat provided by the United Nations Environment Programme 14 th MEETING OF THE CMS SCIENTIFIC COUNCIL Bonn, Germany, 14-17 March 2007 CMS/ScC14/Doc.16 Agenda item 5.1 PROGRESS REPORT ON THE INTERNATIONAL ACTION PLANS FOR THE CONSERVATION OF THE BLACK-FACED SPOONBILL ( PLATALEA MINOR ), SPOON-BILLED SANDPIPER ( EURYNORHYNCHUS PYGMEUS ), AND CHINESE CRESTED-TERN ( STERNA BERNSTEINI ) (Prepared by Mr. Simba Chan, BirdLife International Asia Division) I. Progress to March 2007 1. Preparation of the International Action Plans (IAP) for Black-faced Spoonbill, Chinese Crested-tern and Spoon-billed Sandpiper was unofficially started in late 2004, when BirdLife International Asia Division contacted experts on these species for their involvement in drafting the IAPs. As BirdLife International and its partners in Asia have been involved in conservation activities of Black-faced Spoonbill and Chinese Crested-tern, we believe it is best to have these two species IAP coordinated under BirdLife International Asia Division. On the IAP for Spoon- billed Sandpiper, BirdLife International approached the Shorebird Network of the Asia- Australasian Flyway for cooperation. They recommended Dr Christoph Zöckler, a Spoon-billed Sandpiper expert, to be the coordinator. BirdLife International had discussed with Dr Zöckler several times since 2004 and finally signed an agreement regarding the IAP after signing the Letter of Agreement with the CMS in early 2006. Black-faced Spoonbill Platalea minor 2. Drafting of the IAP for Black-faced Spoonbill goes on smoothly, with four working meetings between compilers who represent all major range countries (Japan, North Korea, South Korea, China including the island of Taiwan and the Hong Kong Special Administration Region) and workshop and symposia held in Tokyo, Tainan (Taiwan), Hong Kong and Ganghwa (South Korea): Tokyo, Japan : 2-6 October 2005 Meeting during the BirdLife Asia Council Meeting and a workshop at the Korea University, Tokyo.
