A Survey of Marine Coastal Litters Around Zhoushan Island, China and Their Impacts
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article A Survey of Marine Coastal Litters around Zhoushan Island, China and Their Impacts Xuehua Ma 1, Yi Zhou 1, Luyi Yang 1 and Jianfeng Tong 1,2,3,* 1 College of Marine Science, Shanghai Ocean University, Shanghai 201306, China; [email protected] (X.M.); [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (L.Y.) 2 National Engineering Research Center for Oceanic Fisheries, Shanghai 201306, China 3 Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center for Marine Science and Technology, Shanghai Ocean University, Shanghai 201306, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Rapid development of the economy increased marine litter around Zhoushan Island. Social- ecological scenario studies can help to develop strategies to adapt to such change. To investigate the present situation of marine litter pollution, a stratified random sampling (StRS) method was applied to survey the distribution of marine coastal litters around Zhoushan Island. A univariate analysis of variance was conducted to access the amount of litter in different landforms that include mudflats, artificial and rocky beaches. In addition, two questionnaires were designed for local fishermen and tourists to provide social scenarios. The results showed that the distribution of litter in different landforms was significantly different, while the distribution of litter in different sampling points had no significant difference. The StRS survey showed to be a valuable method for giving a relative overview of beach litter around Zhoushan Island with less effort in a future survey. The questionnaire feedbacks helped to understand the source of marine litter and showed the impact on the local environment and economy. -

With the increase of overseas COVID-19 cases, ports are becoming the front line of the battle against the epidemic. Most protective measures implemented by port authorities are still in force and we suggest shipowners to keep on following the notice we made in our previous Huatai Info to avoid any problems. Please note that to date our Huatai offices have come back to normal operating condition. Though some of our staff continues to work from home, they can be reached by email and mobile phone as normal. Besides the daily case handling, we shall keep collecting relevant information on COVID-19 related policy as well as latest port situation to protect Club/Members’ best interests. At the end of this Info we hereby provide the updated port information collected from local parties concerned (port authorities, survey firms, etc.) to help Club/Members make the best arrangement when your good vessel facing any potential claims during calling at Chinese ports. We really appreciate all your thoughtfulness and concern about our situation during Covid-19 epidemic. -

PUB Commences Coastal Protection Study at City-East Coast
PUB commences coastal protection study at City-East Coast First site-specific study key to developing a flood resilient master plan to protect Singapore’s south-eastern coastlines from sea-level rise Singapore, 18 May 2021 – National Water Agency PUB will commence a site-specific study along Singapore’s City-East Coast, looking into possible solutions to protect it from the threat of rising seas caused by climate change. This is the first of a series of planned studies for different parts of Singapore’s coastline to be progressively carried out over the next few years, and are a key plank in Singapore’s long-term coastal protection plans. 2 The study covers 57.8 km of the coastline, across three areas (see Annex A for detailed infographic showing the scope of study) – Changi, the East Coast-Marina stretch and part of the Greater Southern Waterfront district. This section of the coastline had been identified to be more vulnerable and critical based on factors such as the potential impact of a flood event, criticality of assets (e.g. airports, economic and industrial districts) and opportunities to dovetail with upcoming developments. 3 The study will take around four years to complete, and will include work such as literature review to glean international best practices, collecting site data to support design works, formulating adaptation measures and pathways and developing the designs of solutions to mitigate flood risks. 4 Ms Hazel Khoo, Director of PUB’s Coastal Protection Department, said, “When PUB was appointed national coastal protection agency in April 2020, this study was earmarked as a significant milestone in our mission to prepare Singapore for the impacts of sea-level rise. -

China: AQSIQ Grants Approval to New Fresh
While some of China's more recent produce import designation areas have been inland to the west in Sichuan and Xinjiang, authorities have now opened up plans for another coastal import destination in one of the country's most affluent provinces. Last month, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) granted official approval for the Zhujiajian Xi'ao area of the Putuo District, Zhoushan City, as an imported fresh produce entry point. The inspection point will be at the Zhejiang-Taiwan Direct Flight Terminal on the small island that lies off the coast of Ningbo, and is a 292km (181mi) drive south from Shanghai. According to a Putuo district government release, the planned area for the entry point is 108 acres, and will include warehouses, cold storage rooms, container yards and other associated facilities. Construction is scheduled to begin in October. Zhoushan's municipal quarantine and inspection officials shared some details with www.freshfruitportal.com during a recent interview. The project is due for completion in two years, and AQSIQ will send a expert team to conduct acceptance testing. Once the entry point is fully established, it will be open for trade with Taiwanese produce goods first, and gradually become open to fresh produce imports from other countries. The processing capacity of the planned entry point has yet to be determined. According to the Zhoushan port's website, mot of the imported fresh produce that comes into Zhoushan are shipped from Taiwan by sea. The Putuo district has received preferential fresh produce policies from the central government. -

China's E-Tail Revolution: Online Shopping As a Catalyst for Growth
McKinsey Global Institute McKinsey Global Institute China’s e-tail revolution: Online e-tail revolution: shoppingChina’s as a catalyst for growth March 2013 China’s e-tail revolution: Online shopping as a catalyst for growth The McKinsey Global Institute The McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, was established in 1990 to develop a deeper understanding of the evolving global economy. Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s in-depth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on six themes: productivity and growth; natural resources; labor markets; the evolution of global financial markets; the economic impact of technology and innovation; and urbanization. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, the economic impact of the Internet, and the future of manufacturing. MGI is led by two McKinsey & Company directors: Richard Dobbs and James Manyika. Michael Chui, Susan Lund, and Jaana Remes serve as MGI principals. Project teams are led by the MGI principals and a group of senior fellows, and include consultants from McKinsey & Company’s offices around the world. These teams draw on McKinsey & Company’s global network of partners and industry and management experts.
