This research paradigm has traditionally tended to focus on Western industrialized communities and large world languages and dialects, leaving many unanswered questions about lesser- studied indigenous minority communities. -

Matisoff, Chair This is a reconstruction of Proto-Ersuic, the ancestor language of Lizu, Tosu, and Ersu, three closely related languages spoken in southwestern Sichuan which are generally considered to be part of the Qiangic branch of Tibeto-Burman. To date, no in-depth historical work has been carried out on these languages. Approximately 800 lexical items are reconstructed based primarily on data from six sources: Mianning Lizu (data collected by the author in Mianning County, Sichuan, in 2008 and 2010), two sources for Kala Lizu (Muli County, one modern and one older source), Naiqu Lizu (Jiulong County), and two varieties of Ersu (Zeluo and Qingshui, both in Ganluo County). Chapter 1 provides a general introduction to Lizu, Tosu, and Ersu, along with basic information for each source to help the reader properly interpret the phonetic transcriptions and parse the individual forms for each language. -

Abstract: This study Addressed the inadequacy of traditional landscape vulnerability measurement methods in considering human disturbance factors, added the population pressure index, to constructs a rural landscape vulnerability measurement model of "landscape sensitivity index (LSI) - landscape adaptability index (LAI) - population pressure index (PPI)" by combining rural landscape vulnerability characterization.Based on the land use cover data from 2005 to 2015 in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture,we constructed a rural landscape vulnerability evaluation system and took empirical analysis. we found that :(1) the evaluation model has good feasibility to portray the vulnerability of rural landscape in the study area, and the research findings reflect the actual situation to a certain extent, which can provide a reference for the study of rural landscape vulnerability measurement. -
