  • Lithofacies Palaeogeography of the Late Permian Wujiaping Age in the Middle and Upper Yangtze Region, China
    Journal of Palaeogeography 2014, 3(4): 384-409 DOI: 10.3724/SP.J.1261.2014.00063 Lithofacies palaeogeography and sedimentology Lithofacies palaeogeography of the Late Permian Wujiaping Age in the Middle and Upper Yangtze Region, China Jin-Xiong Luo*, You-Bin He, Rui Wang School of Geosciences, Yangtze University, Wuhan 430100, China Abstract The lithofacies palaeogeography of the Late Permian Wujiaping Age in Middle and Upper Yangtze Region was studied based on petrography and the “single factor analysis and multifactor comprehensive mapping” method. The Upper Permian Wujiaping Stage in the Middle and Upper Yangtze Region is mainly composed of carbonate rocks and clastic rocks, with lesser amounts of siliceous rocks, pyroclastic rocks, volcanic rocks and coal. The rocks can be divided into three types, including clastic rock, clastic rock-limestone and lime- stone-siliceous rock, and four fundamental ecological types and four fossil assemblages are recognized in the Wujiaping Stage. Based on a petrological and palaeoecological study, six single factors were selected, namely, thickness (m), content (%) of marine rocks, content (%) of shallow water carbonate rocks, content (%) of biograins with limemud, content (%) of thin- bedded siliceous rocks and content (%) of deep water sedimentary rocks. Six single factors maps of the Wujiaping Stage and one lithofacies palaeogeography map of the Wujiaping Age were composed. Palaeogeographic units from west to east include an eroded area, an alluvial plain, a clastic rock platform, a carbonate rock platform where biocrowds developed, a slope and a basin. In addition, a clastic rock platform exists in the southeast of the study area. Hydro- carbon source rock and reservoir conditions were preliminarily analyzed based on lithofacies palaeogeography.

  • UNDP in China
    FOREWORD This report presents the findings and recommendations from policy studies on the challenges and responses to poverty reduction in China at this important juncture of the country’s development. This joint research was undertaken over the course of the past year and a half, by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the International Poverty Reduction Centre in China (IPRCC), to inform China’s poverty reduction efforts for the next ten years. This year marks the beginning of China’s new ten-year poverty reduction strategy and represents the last decade for achieving an all-round Xiaokang society by 2020. The year 2011 also marks the commencement of the 12th Five-Year Plan. And this year also constitutes the beginning of the last 5 years of the Millennium Development Goals. This is clearly a significant juncture for human development, both for China and for the whole world. Over the past thirty years, UNDP has witnessed China’s outstanding performance in poverty alleviation, achievements which have exceeded even the greatest expectations of China’s many observers. However, as China has developed, her challenges have become more complex, and further poverty reduction will undoubtedly prove more difficult to tackle than in previous years. One reason for this is that reducing the absolute number of poor people often masks increases in relative poverty. As a result, poverty reduction efforts will need to be redirected towards the substantial number of people that have been left behind. This includes the elderly, children, ethnic minorities, migrant workers, people living in remote areas, etc. Contemporary poverty in China has also shown signs of some typical “transitional poverty” characteristics, either toward or away from residual poverty largely determined by the suitability of macro-economic frameworks and the quality of institutional governance.
