  • Phylogeography and Population Genetic Structure of Amur Grayling Thymallus Grubii in the Amur Basin
    935 Asian-Aust. J. Anim. Sci. Vol. 25, No. 7 : 935 - 944 July 2012 www.ajas.info http://dx.doi.org/10.5713/ajas.2011.11500 Phylogeography and Population Genetic Structure of Amur Grayling Thymallus grubii in the Amur Basin Bo Ma, Tingting Lui1, Ying Zhang and Jinping Chen1,* Heilongjiang River Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, Harbin 150070, China ABSTRACT: Amur grayling, Thymallus grubii, is an important economic cold freshwater fish originally found in the Amur basin. Currently, suffering from loss of habitat and shrinking population size, T. grubii is restricted to the mountain river branches of the Amur basin. In order to assess the genetic diversity, population genetic structure and infer the evolutionary history within the species, we analysised the whole mitochondrial DNA control region (CR) of 95 individuals from 10 rivers in China, as well as 12 individuals from Ingoda/Onon and Bureya River throughout its distribution area. A total of 64 variable sites were observed and 45 haplotypes were identified excluding sites with gaps/missing data. Phylogenetic analysis was able to confidently predict two subclade topologies well supported by maximum-parsimony and Bayesian methods. However, basal branching patterns cannot be unambiguously estimated. Haplotypes from the mitochondrial clades displayed local homogeneity, implying a strong population structure within T. grubii. Analysis of molecular variance detected significant differences among the different geographical rivers, suggesting that T. grubii in each river should be managed and conserved separately.

    E2646 V1 1. Introduction Public Disclosure Authorized 1.1. Project Background The proposed Harbin-Jiamusi (HaJia Line hereafter) Railway Project is a new 342 km double track railway line starting from the city of Harbin, running through Bing County, Fangzheng County, Yilan County, and ending at the city of Jiasmusi. The Project is located in Heilongjiang Province, and the south of the Songhua River, in the northeast China (See Figure 1-1). The total investment of the Project is RMB 38.66 Billion Yuan, including a World Bank loan of USD 300 million. The construction period is expected to last 4 years, commencing in July 2010. Commissioning of the line is proposed by June 2014. Public Disclosure Authorized HaJia Line, as a Dedicated Passenger Line (DPL) for inter-city communications and an important part of the fast passenger transportation network in northeast of China will extend the Harbin-Dalian dedicated passenger Line to the the northeastern area of Heilongjiang Province, and will be the key line for the transportation system in Heilongjiang Province to go beyond. The project will bring together more closely than before Harbin , Jiamusi and Tongjiang, Shuangyashan, Hegang, Yinchun among which there exists a busy mobility of people potentially demanding high on passenger transportation. The completion of the project will make it possible for the passenger line and cargo train line between Harbin and Jiamusi to be separated, and will extend the the Public Disclosure Authorized line Harbin-Dalian passenger line to the northeast of Heilongjiang Province,It willl also strengthen the skeleton of the railway network of the northeastern part of China and optimize the express passenger transportation network of the northeast.

  • The Research on Temporal–Spatial Distribution and Morphological Characteristics of Ancient Settlements in the Songhua River Basin
    sustainability Article The Research on Temporal–Spatial Distribution and Morphological Characteristics of Ancient Settlements in the Songhua River Basin Meng Zhu 1,2, Jianfei Dong 2,* and Yingzhi Gao 2,* 1 School of architecture, Harbin institute of technology, Harbin 150001, China; zhumeng064@163.com 2 Heilongjiang Cold Region Architectural Science Key Laboratory, Harbin 150006, China * Correspondence: 17S034064@stu.hit.edu.cn (M.Z.); g86289227g@163.com (Y.G.) Received: 4 January 2019; Accepted: 5 February 2019; Published: 12 February 2019 Abstract: Settlements have a high cultural and historical value in regions as indicators of human habitation and culture. The Songhua River Basin is on the edge of a traditional cultural center, which has scattered ecological elements, a special culture, and historical faults. Because of the superposition of traces of different ethnic activities in different periods, the Songhua River has a special and diversified cultural foundation and heritage, which is of high research value. However, the ancient settlements in this region have not been given sufficient attention and as a result it is difficult to achieve a complete and systematic study. In order to promote the cultural value of this historical region and the development of a regional and cultural industry, this paper seeks to study the ancient settlements of Songhua River Basin. With the help of GIS technology, archeological excavations, and the concept of ethnic pedigree in ethnology, this study analyzes the temporal–spatial distribution and morphological characteristics of ancient settlements in the Songhua River Basin, in order to determine how the heritage value of these settlements can be sustainably protected.

  • Areas Benefiting from Water Conservation in Key Ecological Function Areas in China

Compensation DOI:10.5814/j.issn.1674-764x.2015.06.005 www.jorae.cn Areas Benefiting from Water Conservation in Key Ecological Function Areas in China XIAO Yu1*, ZHANG Changshun1 and XU Jie1,2 1 Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, CAS, Beijing 100101, China; 2 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China Abstract: Ecosystem services are transferred from the service-providing area to the service-benefiting area to satisfy human needs through some substance, energy or information. Most studies focus on the provision of ecosystem services and few focus on the demands on ecosystem services and their spatial distribution. Here, on the basis of the flow of water conservation services from the providing area to the benefiting area, the benefits produced by water conservation service are investigated and the benefiting areas are identified. The results indicate that in 2010 the water conservation service of key ecological function areas provided irrigation water for 1.67×105 km2 of paddy fields and 1.01×105 km2 irrigated fields, domestic water to urban residents and industrial water to factories, mines and enterprises of 2.64×104 km2 urban construction land and domestic water to rural residents across 3.73×104 km2 of rural settlements and formed 6.64×104 km2 of inland water which can be used for freshwater aquaculture, downstream regions comprise 1.31×104 km of navigable river, which can be used for inland shipping. The benefit areas of the key function areas located in the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River are greater and more influential benefit areas.

ZooKeys 506: 75–93. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.506.9817 Abstract Nonparasitic Lethenteron reissneri (Dybowski) is redescribed based on four syntypes (two adults and two ammocoetes) from the Onon and Ingoda rivers, Russia, and 15 topotypic specimens (seven metamor- phosing ammocoetes and eight ammocoetes) from the Onon River system, Russia and Mongolia. Poste- rial teeth were not mentioned in the original description, but Berg (1931) stated that they were sometimes absent, which he later (Berg 1948) changed to usually absent, based on material (some of which we have re-identified as parasitic L. camtschaticum) from far outside of the type locality. The latter view has been widely accepted by subsequent authors. Unfortunately, the poor condition of the two adult syntypes did not permit verification of this character.
