Research on the Present Situation, Problems and Countermeasures Of
Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 427 5th International Conference on Social Sciences and Economic Development (ICSSED 2020) Research on the Present Situation, Problems and Countermeasures of Precision Poverty Alleviation in Badong County Yahong Gong1 Weiliang Tu2,* 1Economics and Management of Yangtze University School, Jingzhou, 434023, Hubei Email: [email protected] 2Economics and Management of Yangtze University School, Jingzhou, 434023, Hubei * Corresponding author: Weiliang Tu ABSTRACT Targeted poverty alleviation means accurate identification, assistance and management of the poor. Through the analysis of the current situation of poverty and precision poverty alleviation practice in the rural areas of Badong county, we can find out the difficult problems in the precise poverty alleviation work and overcome the problem of poverty alleviation in the deep poverty-stricken areas. We should improve the strategy of targeted poverty alleviation through multiple channels, establish a long-term mechanism of poverty alleviation through industry, education, entrepreneurship, and improve the skills of poverty alleviation teams, in an effort to reduce the poor population in Badong county. Keywords: targeted poverty alleviation, problem, long-term mechanism zone, 12 townships and 491 villages (neighborhood committees). In 2016, the resident population of Badong 1. INTRODUCTION county was 570,000, among which more than 520,000 were rural residents, accounting for 91.23% of the total In the past, China mainly focused on the extensive poverty population of the county. alleviation model. Later, the targeted poverty alleviation model was put forward in light of the extensive poverty alleviation model. The targeted poverty alleviation model 2.2.

Research on Slope Deformation Regularity of the Badong Formation in the Three-Gorges Reservoir Area
Applied Mechanics and Materials Vols 117-119 (2012) pp 1638-1645 Online: 2011-10-24 © (2012) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland doi:10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.117-119.1638 Research on Slope Deformation Regularity of the Badong Formation in the Three-Gorges Reservoir Area Huiming Tang 1, a , Xinli Hu 1, b and Chengren Xiong 1,c 1 Engineering Faculty, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan 430074, China a [email protected], b [email protected], c [email protected] Keywords: The Three-Gorge Reservoir, Badong Formation, landslide, Huangtupo landslide, landslide evolution pattern Abstract. The Three-Gorges Reservoir area is characterized by widely distributed strata of Badong Formation, in which large size landslide and deep-reaching loose geological body are likely to form. Therefore, it is significant to reveal the mechanism and patterns of the large size landslide in Badong Formation for better understanding of the development of the nature of deformation and process of formation of the deep-reaching loose stratum slope. In this paper, the geological characteristics of the rock mass of the Badong Formation are concluded on the basis of systematic explanation of the space variation of the lithology combinations and space variation of structural deformation of the Badong Formation in the Three-Gorges Reservoir area. To demonstrate the basic law of long-term deformation of the Badong Formation slopes and the patterns of later stage reform and landslide evolution, the authors exemplify the Huangtupo landslide that is typical in the Badong Formation. Introduction The Three-Gorge Reservoir area is characterized by widely distributed strata of Badong Formation, in which large size landslide and deep-reaching loose geological body are likely to form. -

After the first impoundment in June 2003, many landslides occurred or reactivated. Shuping landslide is one of the most active landslides among them. In this paper, the deformation of the Shuping landslide monitored by GPS, extensometers, and crack measurements are summarized. Also, for the investigation of the groundwater situation, 1m-depth ground temperature measurement was conducted, and the groundwater veins were estimated. Based on the monitoring data and exploration results, a deformation model of the landslide caused by impoundment of reservoir was proposed. Keywords: landslide, displacement monitoring, reservoir impoundment, groundwater 1. Introduction River in China is the largest hydro-electricity project in the world.
