    Assessing the Temporal and Spatial Dynamics of the Forest Fires in Southeastern China - 3393

    Liu et al.: Assessing the temporal and spatial dynamics of the forest fires in southeastern China - 3393 - ASSESSING THE TEMPORAL AND SPATIAL DYNAMICS OF THE FOREST FIRES IN SOUTHEASTERN CHINA LIU, X. D.* – EKOUNGOULOU, R.* – ZHAO, H. – NIU, S. K.

D.) (Received 28th Feb 2018; accepted 21st May 2018) Abstract. This study presented the distribution of the largest forest fires in the area of Sanming, Fujian province of China from 2000 to 2009 and focused on the spatial and temporal dynamics of forest fire occurrences. The fire location distribution, occurrence causes, and daily, monthly and annual distribution of fires influenced by weather were examined. The weather data was analyzed using the software FWI Calc. v.10.3.1.106. There were a total of 818 forest fires occurred in the period 2000-2009 that burned 87 million m2 of forests; the fires have been detected during the fieldwork. The time distribution of forest fire occurrence had a regular pattern daily, and most forest fires occurred between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., accounting for 92.42% of total fires. It was found that drier and warmer weathers provided favorable conditions for forest fire occurrences, and the majority of serious fires were occurred between 2008 and 2009, which was a period with relatively dry and warm weather. Significant relationships between forest fire occurrence and weather were determined in the study.

    Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof

    Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof. Wang, Yaohua Fujian Normal University, China Intangible cultural heritage is the memory of human historical culture, the root of human culture, the ‘energic origin’ of the spirit of human culture and the footstone for the construction of modern human civilization. Ever since China joined the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2004, it has done a lot not only on cognition but also on action to contribute to the protection and transmission of intangible cultural heritage. Please allow me to expatiate these on the case of Chinese nanyin(南音, southern music). I. The precious multi-values of nanyin decide the necessity of protection and transmission for Chinese nanyin. Nanyin, also known as “nanqu” (南曲), “nanyue” (南乐), “nanguan” (南管), “xianguan” (弦管), is one of the oldest music genres with strong local characteristics. As major musical genre, it prevails in the south of Fujian – both in the cities and countryside of Quanzhou, Xiamen, Zhangzhou – and is also quite popular in Taiwan, Hongkong, Macao and the countries of Southeast Asia inhabited by Chinese immigrants from South Fujian. The music of nanyin is also found in various Fujian local operas such as Liyuan Opera (梨园戏), Gaojia Opera (高甲戏), line-leading puppet show (提线木偶戏), Dacheng Opera (打城戏) and the like, forming an essential part of their vocal melodies and instrumental music. As the intangible cultural heritage, nanyin has such values as follows. I.I. Academic value and historical value Nanyin enjoys a reputation as “a living fossil of the ancient music”, as we can trace its relevance to and inheritance of Chinese ancient music in terms of their musical phenomena and features of musical form.

    Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait Through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks

    sustainability Article Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks Yan Ma * and Feng Xue School of Architecture and Urban-Rural Planning, Fuzhou University, Fuzhou 350108, Fujian, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 April 2019; Accepted: 21 May 2019; Published: 24 May 2019 Abstract: Globalization and the spread of information have made city networks more complex. The existing research on city network structures has usually focused on discussions of regional integration. With the development of interconnections among cities, however, the characterization of city network structures on a regional scale is limited in the ability to capture a network’s complexity. To improve this characterization, this study focused on network structures at both regional and local scales. Through the lens of function and innovation, we characterized the city network structure of the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through a social network analysis and a Fast Unfolding Community Detection algorithm. We found a significant imbalance in the innovation cooperation among cities in the region. When considering people flow, a multilevel spatial network structure had taken shape. Among cities with strong centrality, Xiamen, Fuzhou, and Whenzhou had a significant spillover effect, which meant the region was depolarizing. Quanzhou and Ganzhou had a significant siphon effect, which was unsustainable. Generally, urbanization in small and midsize cities was common. These findings provide support for government policy making. Keywords: city network; spatial organization; people flows; innovation network 1.

Received: 17 July 2018; Accepted: 13 September 2018; Published: 18 September 2018 Abstract: The coordinated development of industrialization and its ecological environment are vital antecedents to sustainable development in China. However, along with the accelerating development of industrialization in China, the contradiction between industrial development and environment preservation has turned out to be increasingly evident and inevitable. Eco-efficiency can be seen either as an indicator of environmental performance, or as a business strategy for sustainable development. Hence, industrial eco-efficiency promotion is the key factor for green industrial development. This study selects indicators relevant to resources, economy, and the environment of industrial development, and the indicators can well reflect the characteristics of industrial eco-efficiency. The SBM (Slacks-Based Measure) model overcomes the limitations of a radial model and directly accounts for input and output slacks in the efficiency measurements, with the advantage of capturing the entire aspect of inefficiency. This study evaluates the industrial eco-efficiency of nine cities in Fujian province during the period of 2006–2016, based on undesired output SBM (Slacks-Based Measure) model and also uses a Tobit regression model to analyze the influencing factors. The results show that there is a positive correlation among the economic development level, opening level, research and development (R&D) innovation, and industrial eco-efficiency in Fujian Province.

  • The Paradigm of Hakka Women in History

    The Paradigm of Hakka Women in History

    DOI: 10.4312/as.2021.9.1.31-64 31 The Paradigm of Hakka Women in History Sabrina ARDIZZONI* Abstract Hakka studies rely strongly on history and historiography. However, despite the fact that in rural Hakka communities women play a central role, in the main historical sources women are almost absent. They do not appear in genealogy books, if not for their being mothers or wives, although they do appear in some legends, as founders of villages or heroines who distinguished themselves in defending the villages in the absence of men. They appear in modern Hakka historiography—Hakka historiography is a very recent discipline, beginning at the end of the 19th century—for their moral value, not only for adhering to Confucian traditional values, but also for their endorsement of specifically Hakka cultural values. In this paper we will analyse the cultural paradigm that allows women to become part of Hakka history. We will show how ethical values are reflected in Hakka historiography through the reading of the earliest Hakka historians as they depict- ed Hakka women. Grounded on these sources, we will see how the narration of women in Hakka history has developed until the present day. In doing so, it is necessary to deal with some relevant historical features in the construc- tion of Hakka group awareness, namely migration, education, and women narratives, as a pivotal foundation of Hakka collective social and individual consciousness.

    Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects

    Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects Esra Erdem Institute of Information Systems, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Feng Wang Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Evolutionary relations between languages based on their shared characteristics can be represented as a phylogeny --- a tree where the leaves represent the extant languages, the internal vertices represent the ancestral languages, and the edges represent the genetic relations between the languages. On the other hand, languages not only inherit characteristics from their ancestors but also sometimes borrow them from other languages. Such borrowings can be represented by additional non-tree edges, turning a phylogeny into a phylogenetic network. With this motivation, we reconstruct the evolutionary history of languages in two steps: first we compute a plausible phylogeny with a minimal number of incompatible characters, and then we turn this phylogeny into a perfect phylogenetic network, by adding a small number of lateral edges, so that all characters are compatible with the network. For both steps, to formulate the problems and to solve them, we use answer set programming --- a new form of declarative programming. This method has been successfully applied to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Indo-European languages. In the following we summarize its application to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Old Chinese and the following 23 Chinese dialects: Guangzhou, Liancheng, Meixian, Taiwan, Xiamen, Zhangping, Fuzhou, Nanchang, Anyi, Shuangfeng, Changsha, Beijing, Yuci, Taiyuan, Ningxia, Chengdu, Yingshan, Wuhan, Ningbo, Suzhou, Shangai 1, Shangai 2, Wenzhou. We have started with a dataset consisting of 200 lexical characters (the Swadesh wordlist), each with 1--24 states.

    Research on the Color of Ancient Residential Architecture in Southern

    2016 International Conference on Civil, Structure, Environmental Engineering (I3CSEE 2016) Research on the color of ancient residential architecture in Southern Fujian and its inspiration for modern urban color application Fenghua JIN College of architecture and urban planning, FuJian University of Technology, Fuzhou City, China [email protected] Keywords: Ancient dwellings, Urban color, Architecture colors. Abstract. Study on the color of ancient residential architecture in Southern Fujian, and explore its causes and evolution, hoping to give some inspiration to the use of modern architecture color. Introduction Architectural colors and architectural forms are the products of a certain historical period. They depend on each other and complement each other. If there is no color, no order of architectural form. All of them are the basis of architectural aesthetics which is based on the principle of architectural aesthetics. Of course, it is also restricted by time and space, which is changing with time and space. Building itself is inseparable from the color, so color becomes the most direct way to express the mood of the building. The ancient dwellings in Southern Fujian are distinct in color, which is unique in Chinese traditional dwelling houses. In recent years, with the rapid development of urbanization, the traditional regional architecture color environment has been flooded, and the design and construction of the traditional Taiwanese architectural environment is changing.

Are there any reports on the petitioning or demonstrating by citizens against local/district level government corruption in Putian or Fujian, and treatment of them by police and the authorities? Please provide information on what may happen more generally in China to such people. There are media and human rights reports on the petitioning and demonstrating by citizens against local/district level government corruption in Putian and Fujian dated from 2004 to 2009. These reports indicate police have detained leaders who have pursued, over several years, anti-corruption complaints via petitioning and/or demonstrations, and courts in Putian have sentenced them to 2-3 years imprisonment for disturbing social order. Those represented by protest leaders have been intimidated, threatened and placed under surveillance. Putian City authorities have detained and imprisoned for two to three years on public order offences persons who have pursued formal complaints and/or petitions against local officials who allegedly committed corruption. Two cases are detailed below: In case one, a farmer from Zhuchuan village, Lin Jindian, was charged with “disturbance of public order” and sentenced to two and half years prison in August 2004 by a court in Putian City. He had pursued longstanding corruption complaints on behalf of 30-40 families against a local party secretary and officials. Prior to being charged, Jindian had pursued with county, city, provincial and national governments complaints against officials who had “embezzled public money, didn‟t stick to regulations, and levied too many taxes”, and had sold out-of- quota birth permits to families.
