  • To Increase the Benefits of Water Investment for Regional and National Development ---A Case Study of Shaanxi Province
    Global Water Partnership(China) WACDEP Work Package Three Outcome Report To increase the Benefits of Water Investment For Regional and National Development ---A case study of Shaanxi Province Research Office of Shaanxi Provincial People’s Congress Shaanxi Provincial Water Resources Department Xi’an Jiaotong University Copyright @ 2016 by GWP China Abstract Water is not only the indispensable and irreplaceable natural resources for human survival and development, but also very important strategic resources. Water is the infrastructure and the basic industry of the national economic and social development. With the economic growth, the pressure on scarce resources and ecological environment protection is highlighted. The need for government at all levels to speed up the water investment and improve people's welfare is pressing. Therefore, a comprehensive assessment of water investment in Shaanxi Province is of great practical significance. Relatively speaking, Shaanxi Province is short of water resources with less total amount and per capita share. In addition, the spatial distribution of water resources is also extremely unreasonable: the southern part of Shaanxi Province which is part of the Yangtze River basin takes up over 70% while the northern part which is highly populated with fast industrial development only shares 30% of it. The conflict between the demand for water resources and the distribution, to some extent, restrict the social and economic development. The Shaanxi Provincial Government has put the water sector in an important place. It is even so from 2010 to now with a dramatic increase on investment, reaching a total investment amount of 22.408 billion RMB in 2013.

  • Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor?
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.8.3579 Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? RESEARCH ARTICLE Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? Wei Deng1&, Long Long2&*, Xian-Yan Tang3, Tian-Ren Huang1, Ji-Lin Li1, Min- Hua Rong1, Ke-Zhi Li1, Hai-Zhou Liu1 Abstract Geographic information system (GIS) technology has useful applications for epidemiology, enabling the detection of spatial patterns of disease dispersion and locating geographic areas at increased risk. In this study, we applied GIS technology to characterize the spatial pattern of mortality due to liver cancer in the autonomous region of Guangxi Zhuang in southwest China. A database with liver cancer mortality data for 1971-1973, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, including geographic locations and climate conditions, was constructed, and the appropriate associations were investigated. It was found that the regions with the highest mortality rates were central Guangxi with Guigang City at the center, and southwest Guangxi centered in Fusui County. Regions with the lowest mortality rates were eastern Guangxi with Pingnan County at the center, and northern Guangxi centered in Sanjiang and Rongshui counties. Regarding climate conditions, in the 1990s the mortality rate of liver cancer positively correlated with average temperature and average minimum temperature, and negatively correlated with average precipitation. In 2004 through 2005, mortality due to liver cancer positively correlated with the average minimum temperature. Regions of high mortality had lower average humidity and higher average barometric pressure than did regions of low mortality.

  • The Research on the Inheritance Value Management of the Fire-Dragon Culture
    2019 3rd International Conference on Education, Management and Social Science (EMSS 2019) The Research on the Inheritance Value Management of the Fire-Dragon Culture Yuan Huang School of Wuhan University of Technology, Hubei 430070, China [email protected] Keywords: Fire-dragon Festival, Value Management, Culture Inheritance Abstract: Different cultural heritages nourish different people, and it is one of the important links between people and society. The long history of the "Fire-dragon Festival" is a folk cultural activity, and its extensive masses enable it to be passed down. In order to explore the inheritance of the artillery culture, we conducted field research and found that the inheritance of the artillery culture appeared crisis. While the relevant laws and regulations are not perfect, the cultural inclusiveness and the cultural connotation are weakened. The study concluded that we should strengthen the traditional culture inheritance Value management, increase the scientific research of the Fire-dragon culture in Binyang, and take the road of folklore protection and nationality inheritance. 1. Introduction China has a history of 5,000 years. Perhaps it is too long and long, which makes our nation not cherish, has too much, and is indifferent to our persistence, customs and complexities, so we unknowingly left the traditional culture, this is the sorrow of our nation. Nowadays, the loss of Chinese traditional culture is serious, and modern people's concern for culture is far from enough. It’s necessary to develop the economy and protect traditional culture meanwhile. Different cultural heritages nourish different people, and it is one of the important links between people and society.

  • LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY ALONG the CHINA-VIETNAM BORDER* David Holm Department of Ethnology, National Chengchi University William J
    Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area Volume 33.2 ― October 2010 LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY ALONG THE CHINA-VIETNAM BORDER* David Holm Department of Ethnology, National Chengchi University Abstract The diversity of Tai languages along the border between Guangxi and Vietnam has long fascinated scholars, and led some to postulate that the original Tai homeland was located in this area. In this article I present evidence that this linguistic diversity can be explained in large part not by “divergent local development” from a single proto-language, but by the intrusion of dialects from elsewhere in relatively recent times as a result of migration, forced trans-plantation of populations, and large-scale military operations. Further research is needed to discover any underlying linguistic diversity in the area in deep historical time, but a prior task is to document more fully and systematically the surface diversity as described by Gedney and Haudricourt among others. Keywords diversity, homeland, migration William J. Gedney, in his influential article “Linguistic Diversity Among Tai Dialects in Southern Kwangsi” (1966), was among a number of scholars to propose that the geographical location of the proto-Tai language, the Tai Urheimat, lay along the border between Guangxi and Vietnam. In 1965 he had 1 written: This reviewer’s current research in Thai languages has convinced him that the point of origin for the Thai languages and dialects in this country [i.e. Thailand] and indeed for all the languages and dialects of the Tai family, is not to the north in Yunnan, but rather to the east, perhaps along the border between North Vietnam and Kwangsi or on one side or the other of this border.
