  • Nature Reserve of Orange County
    NATURE RESERVE OF ORANGE COUNTY NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release June 13, 2016 Irvine, California-- Between June 18 to June 24 and July 5 to July 12, the Nature Communities Coalition (NCC), in collaboration with OC Parks, Irvine Ranch Conservancy, and The Nature Conservancy will conduct an aerial weed survey during daylight hours using a small, low-flying helicopter to document and map the distribution of over 30 weed species located within selected inland parks and open space areas. The resulting information will provide details about the abundance and distribution of invasive weeds and help land managers evaluate the effectiveness of current weed monitoring practices, identify emerging weed problems, and strategically plan future weed management actions. Notices describing the aerial weed survey will be posted at trailheads at participating parks and open space areas during the project period. The aerial weed survey will be focused on mapping the distribution of artichoke thistle and a minimum of 30 other established and emerging invasive weeds which degrade natural habitat values important to wildlife and the park visitor experience. The survey will cover nearly 32,000 acres and involve the following land areas (also see attached map): Aerial Survey Area Ownership Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park OC Parks Siphon Reservoir Irvine Ranch Water District City of Irvine Open Space Preserve North City of Irvine Irvine Ranch Open Space OC Parks Irvine Regional Park OC Parks Peters Canyon Regional Park OC Parks Santiago Oaks Regional Park OC Parks Coal Canyon Ecological Reserve California Department of Fish and Wildlife -OVER- The aerial survey will be conducted by an experienced team, Wildlands Conservation Science LLC, using a small helicopter (Schweizer-333) and a crew of three (an experienced pilot and two biologists conducting the survey).

  • Vietnam: Van Long Nature Reserve
    Van Long Nature Reserve Vietnam Van Long – local fishers cast nets in the limestone fringed community wetland By Dao Nguyen May 2008 Executive summary Van Long Nature Reserve is situated in Gia Vien district along the Northeastern border of Ninh Binh Province. Van Long straddles seven communes (local Government administrative units) and is in the heartland of the populated centre of north-eastern Vietnam, 85km south of the capitol, Hanoi. All the 45,000 or so people who live in these seven communes in the buffer zone of Van Long are of the Kinh ethnic Vietnamese majority. Van Long itself covers some 3,000 hectares and comprises two major geographic features. Firstly, Van Long is a large wetland and freshwater system. Secondly, the canals, lakes and streams wend through an island-like landscape of karst limestone mountains that harbour the only viable population of the Delacour Langur - one of the world’s most critically endangered species of primate (with less than 200 individuals remaining, globally). Without the protection afforded Van Long by the local community, and now by the Government and local authorities, it is highly probable that the Delacour langur would be the first primate extinction of the 21st Century. The name Van Long dates back centuries, and the community has evidenced a robust capacity to harness the natural resources of Van Long through decades of intense conflict and change, without diminishing their resource base. The cultural significance of the wetland-karst landscape is a vital part of local folklore and sense of place. With the outside discovery of the population of Delacour’s Langur in 1993, external attention to Van Long began to increase.

Academic Editor: Marc A. Rosen Received: 16 September 2016; Accepted: 23 November 2016; Published: 28 November 2016 Abstract: Compulsory education is an important aspect of the societal development. Meanwhile, education equality safeguards the effectiveness of education systems and is an important part of social equality. This study analyzes the inequality of compulsory education from the perspective of imbalanced spatial distribution. Unlike previous studies that have measured the spatial distribution of education simply based on the spatial position of primary and secondary schools, we explore spatial accessibility based on the shortest travel distance from residents to schools, and then analyze the inequality of compulsory education through the distribution of spatial accessibility. We use 2873 Chinese counties as statistical units, and perform a statistical and graphical analysis of their spatial accessibility using the Theil index and spatial autocorrelation analyses. To analyze the differences in the spatial accessibility distribution on the national and regional levels, we use three partitioned modes: the terrain partitioned mode, the economic development partitioned mode, and the province-level partitioned mode.
