  • Digital Environmental Governance in China: Information Disclosure, Pollution Control, and Environmental Activism in the Yellow River Delta
    www.water-alternatives.org Volume 10 | Issue 3 Tan, J. and Eguavoen, I. 2017. Digital environmental governance in China: Information disclosure, pollution control, and environmental activism in the Yellow River Delta. Water Alternatives 10(3): 910-929 Digital Environmental Governance in China: Information Disclosure, Pollution Control, and Environmental Activism in the Yellow River Delta Jiaxin Tan Independent Researcher; Guangzhou, China; [email protected] Irit Eguavoen Center for Development Research, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany; [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Chinese water bureaucracy increasingly utilises information and communications technology (ICT) in order to strengthen interaction with the population, which is severely affected by industrial pollution. Government webpages, mailboxes, and online interviews with officers have become prevalent tools for environmental governance, including information disclosure, and a virtual communication forum between the state and its citizens. The present study employs a mixed methods approach with a qualitative emphasis to explore the process of communication and interaction between government agencies and local residents in Dongying, Shandong Province. The results show that information disclosure of pollution data remains far from being transparent, despite the fact that the local government has implemented digital environmental governance, as encouraged by the central Chinese state. Internet technologies empower resource-poor environmental activists in Dongying to strengthen their social network and build communication with the authorities. The application of bureaucratic techniques, however, is key for them to enter the communication interface with government agencies in order to influence political decisions. Results suggest that local cadres tend to send mixed signals to activists and display wariness towards them. They also tend to take preventive measures to keep the situation under control when environmental disputes arise.

  • CHINA Shandong Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve
    CHINA Shandong Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve Chen Kelin and Yuan Jun Wetlands International-China Programme Yan Chenggao Ministry of Forestry, PRC THE CONTEXT Ecological profile Shandong Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve (11833-11920E, 3735-3812N) is situated in the northeast of Dongying City, Shandong Province, the People's Republic of China, which faces the Bohai Sea in the North and borders Laizhou Bay in the East (see appended map). It has a warm-temperate continental monsoon climate, with dry and windy spring, hot and rainy summer, cool and clear autumn, cold, dry and snowless winter. This area has an average annual temperature of 11.9C, a frost-free period of about 210 days, an average annual precipitation of 592 mm, mean annual evaporation of 1962 mm and average annual relative humidity of 68%. The Yellow River plays a dominant role in forming and maintaining the regional hydrology. The river has its lowest discharge from late March to June. With increasing water consumption upstream, especially the rapid development of water diversion works for irrigation, the river flow drys out frequently. The main flood season is from July to October, when there is heavy rainfall in the middle and lower reaches. From October to mid December, the river flow is steady. Then it will be ice bound season from the end December to March, during which the water level often rises drastically owing to poor drainage from ice blocking down the river channel. According to the observation data of Lijin hydrological station in the Yellow River Mouth from 1950 to 1985, the mean discharge is 41.9 billion m3, with an range from the maximum of 79.31 billion m3 to the minimum of 9.15 billion m3.

  • Distribution and Sources of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Soils from Shengli Oil Field, China

China *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Kuang S., Su Y., Zhang J., Song Z., Wang H., Yu W. (2018): Distribution and sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocar- bons in soils from Shengli Oil Field, China. Soil & Water Res. The concentrations of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are on the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) priority pollutant list, were studied in ten different soil samples from Shengli Oil Field, China. The total PAHs concentrations in the sampled soils attained 1214.9–2965.1 ng/g (2159.6 ng/g on average). The highest total PAHs concentration was in the soil with a huge content of oil sludge, while the lowest was in fine soil environment areas. The soil contamination with PAHs in the study areas was classified as severe. The major pollutants were naphthalene, phenathrene, fluorine (Flu), pyrene (Pyr), while the detected concentration of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), benzo(b)fluoranthene was relatively low. Among the 16 kinds of PAHs, the concentra- tion increased in the order: 6 rings < 5 rings < 4 rings < 2 rings < 3 rings.
