The purpose of this document is to set out an action plan for the Resettlement and Rehabilitation of the Displaced Persons (DPs) to ensure that they will benefit from the project and their standards of living will improve or at least be restored after the project impact. Acquisition of land and other assets for the project will adversely affect the livelihood and production of persons who live, work or earn their living on the land that will be acquired for the project. "DPs" are defined as those persons whose livelihoods or production will be adversely affected by land acquisition and house relocation for the project, and include the following categories: a) persons whose land (including house plot, land for public facilities, agriculture, forest, husbandry, fishery and sideline production and grazing), structures (private houses and their attachments, enterprises, or public buildings), title, right, interest, or any other asset, are acquired or occupied, in full or in part, permanently or temporarily; b) persons who use the structures, land or assets described above; or persons whose business, occupation, work, place of residence or habitat are adversely affected; or c) persons whose standard of living is adversely affected as a consequence of land acquisition and/or resettlement activities. Therefore all such persons who are affected will need to considered and recorded as DPs, regardless of their legal connection to assets land or location. All DPs are entitled to the improvement or at least restoration of their standards of living, and compensation for the material losses they suffer. Compensation for assets will cover replacement cost. No deductions or discounts will be applied to the compensation amount for depreciation or other reasons. All DPs deriving an economic benefit from the affected land and property are entitled to receive rehabilitation benefits in addition to the compensation for their assets lost. Those DPs without title, authorization or legal permission to reside, conduct business, cultivate land or construct structures are eligible for rehabilitation of their livelihoods and compensation for their assets on an equal footing with those with formal legal title, authorization or permission to the assets. A definition of Resettlement and Rehabilitation is given below: The Resettlement and Rehabilitation means arrangement of production and livelihood for the DPs to restore their productive capability and improve their standard of living at least equal to that before the project, and mainly include: a) the relocation of living quarters; b) finding acceptable new employment for those whose jobs are lost or severely affected; c) restoration (or compensation) of affected productive resources such as land, _..~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RAP-Xiaogushan HPP workplaces, trees and infrastructure; d) restoration of adverse effects (such as pollution of harmful gases and so on) on DPs' living standards (quality of life) by land acquisition and house relocation; e) restoration of or compensation for affected private and public enterprises; f) restoration of adversely affected on cultural or common property. A definition of is given below: The objective of this RAP is to provide a plan for the resettlement and rehabilitation of the DPs so that their losses will be compensated and their standards of living will be improved or at least restored to the pre-project levels in a sustainable manner. For this purpose, the RAP hereof provides the rehabilitation measures to restore the DPs' income and the living to their pre-project levels, and improve or at least restore affected productive resources of businesses, enterprises (including shops) and public facilities to their pre-project levels. 2 RAP-Xiaogushan HPP 1 General Description 1.1 Project Background Zhangye City of Gansu Province is about 600km from Lanzhou City, the capital city of the province, and has six counties/district (five counties and one district) under its jurisdiction.

    Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs Into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8

    DOI: 10.4312/as.2019.7.2.47-86 47 Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8 ∗∗ Nataša VAMPELJ SUHADOLNIK 9 Abstract This paper examines the ways in which Fuxi and Nüwa were depicted inside the mu- ral tombs of the Wei-Jin dynasties along the Hexi Corridor as compared to their Han counterparts from the Central Plains. Pursuing typological, stylistic, and iconographic approaches, it investigates how the western periphery inherited the knowledge of the divine pair and further discusses the transition of the iconographic and stylistic design of both deities from the Han (206 BCE–220 CE) to the Wei and Western Jin dynasties (220–316). Furthermore, examining the origins of the migrants on the basis of historical records, it also attempts to discuss the possible regional connections and migration from different parts of the Chinese central territory to the western periphery. On the basis of these approaches, it reveals that the depiction of Fuxi and Nüwa in Gansu area was modelled on the Shandong regional pattern and further evolved into a unique pattern formed by an iconographic conglomeration of all attributes and other physical characteristics. Accordingly, the Shandong region style not only spread to surrounding areas in the central Chinese territory but even to the more remote border regions, where it became the model for funerary art motifs.

As an irreplaceable ecological barrier in western China, the Qilian Mountains (QLM) provide various ecosystem services for humans. To evaluate the changes in the intensity of human activities in the QLM and their impact on the ecosystem, the human footprint (HF) method was used to conduct a spatial dataset of human activity intensity. In our study, the NDVI was used to characterize the growth of vegetation, and six categories of human pressures were employed to create the HF map in the QLM for 2000–2015 at a 1-km scale. The results showed that the mean NDVI during the growing season showed a significant increasing trend over the entire QLM in the period 2000–2015, while the NDVI showed a significant declining trend of more than 70% concentrated in Qinghai. Human pressure throughout the QLM occurred at a low level during 2000–2015, being greater in the eastern region than the western region, while the Qinghai area had greater human pressure than the Gansu area.

    Epidemiological Survey of Human Echinococcosis in East Gansu, China

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Epidemiological survey of human echinococcosis in east Gansu, China Shuai Yan1,5, Dong Wang2,5, Junrui Zhang3, Xiaojin Mo1, Yu Feng2, Liling Duan3, Deyu Liu3, Fan Li2, Yongchun Dao3, Ting Zhang1*, Wei Hu1,4, Zheng Feng1 & Bin Zheng1* Echinococcosis is endemic in pastoral regions of south, west and mid-Gansu province, China. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of echinococcosis in east Gansu, and analyze its associated risk factors. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2011 in 12 villages of Xiaonangou township, Huan County in east Gansu province by ultrasound abdominal scan and auxiliary serotest, and a prevalence surveillance study from 2008 to 2014 was performed in one villages by ultrasonography screening. Questionnaire information analysis indicates that the risk factors are in association with the gender, age, and education level. The cross-sectional survey found a cystic echinococcosis prevalence of 2.21% (107/4837). Higher prevalence was seen in females (χ2 = 4.198, 2 2 P < 0.05), older ages (> 60 years) (χ trend = 96.30, P < 0.05), and illiterates (χ = 90.101, P < 0.05). Prevalence surveillance showed changing profle of 3.35% in 2011 to 0.88% (1/113) in 2014. Echinococcosis is a serious and potentially fatal zoonotic helminthic disease worldwide distributed, caused by larval stage of the genus Echinococcus1,2. Echinococcosis not only imposes a substantial health burden on families but also contributes to overburden the healthcare systems, and impedes socio-economic development. Tere are two main types of the disease: cystic echinococcosis (CE) caused by Echinococcus granulosus and alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by E.

Description of the sources of mortality data in China National Mortality Surveillance System Before 2013, the Chinese CRVS included two systems: the vital registration system of the Chinese National Health and Family Planning Commission (NHFPC) (the former Ministry of Health) and the sample-based disease surveillance points (DSP) system of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The vital registration system was established in 1973 and started to collect data of vital events. By 2012, this system covered around 230 million people in 22 provinces, helping to provide valuable information on both mortality and COD patterns, although the data were not truly representative for the whole China [55]. DSP was established in 1978 to collect data on individual births, deaths and 35 notifiable infectious diseases in surveillance areas [56]. By 2004, there were 161 sites included in the surveillance system, covering 73 million persons in 31 provinces. The sites were selected from different areas based on a multistage cluster sampling method, leading to a very good national representativeness of the DSP [57, 58]. From 2013, the above two systems were merged together to generate a new “National Mortality Surveillance System” (NMSS), which currently covers 605 surveillance points in 31 provinces and 24% of the whole Chinese population. The selection of surveillance points was based on a national multistage cluster sampling method, after stratifying for different socioeconomic status to ensure the representativeness [17, 58].

    Effects of Water and Nitrogen Coupling on the Photosynthetic Characteristics, Yield, and Quality of Isatis Indigotica

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efects of water and nitrogen coupling on the photosynthetic characteristics, yield, and quality of Isatis indigotica Yucai Wang1*, Xiucheng He1, Fuqiang Li1, Haoliang Deng2, Zeyi Wang1, Caixia Huang1, Yi Han1, Yuchun Ba3, Lian Lei3 & Changlong Zhang3 Isatis indigotica is a commercial medicinal crop that is widely cultivated with high water and nutrient application, in the arid areas of northwest China. Rational irrigation and nitrogen application are key factors for successful crop management. The objective of this study was to determine the efect of water and nitrogen coupling on the photosynthetic characteristics, yield, and quality of Isatis indigotica produced in northwestern China. Field trials were conducted for 2 consecutive years at an irrigation test station. Data on photosynthetic parameters, yield, and quality were collected from individual Isatis indigotica for each treatment during 2018–2019. The application of nitrogen signifcantly increased photosynthetic rates and yield under the same irrigation conditions. However, the yields were reduced in the excess water treatments (W3N1 and W3N2) and in the excess nitrogen treatments (W1N3, W2N3, and W3N3) in contrast to the optimum W2N2 treatment. Moreover, the quality indicators of the W2N2 treatment decreased compared with CK, which was due to water stress and more photoassimilates being available to the roots, but the efective quality index value could be efectively improved by greatly increasing the yield. In the oasis region of Hexi, China, agricultural development is limited by water shortages and the excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer. Te major focus of research is determining ways to improve water use efciency and to reduce nitrogen application.

    Regional Differences of Rural Financial Exclusion ——In Gansu and Jiangsu Province

    Regional Differences of Rural Financial Exclusion ——in Gansu and Jiangsu Province Yuying Zhao Department of Agricultural Economics University of Arkansas [email protected] Selected Paper prepared for presentation at the Southern Agricultural Economics Association’s 2016 Annual Meeting, San Antonio, Texas. February 6-9, 2016. Copyright 2016 by Yuying Zhao. All rights reserved. Readers may verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided this copyright notice appears on all such copies. Abstract At present, China is facing a serious problem of financial exclusion in rural areas, which restricts the development of rural economy and even the comprehensive, balanced and sustainable development of the overall real economy. From the perspective of regional differences in Gansu and Jiangsu provinces and between these two provinces, this paper establishes the Index of Rural Financial Exclusion, and explores the relationship between the refined indicators. Combining the economic theory, this paper uses double logarithmic models to analyze empirically on the relationship between the balance of loans per person and two factors: the density of branches with respect to population and GDP per capita and then compares these two models. We use this model to discuss the driving factor that can help to alleviate rural financial exclusion in different regions. In this paper, comparative analysis, theoretical analysis, empirical analysis, qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis are methods used to analyze the statistical data issued by the China Banking Regulatory Commission. This paper integrates the analyses of rural financial exclusion in provinces and between provinces, and comes to these conclusions about the rural financial exclusion problem of Gansu Province and Jiangsu Province in micro and macro level: (1) the forms of rural financial difference between areas are diverse.
