Institutional responsibilities for environmental management 6. The Jilin provincial government is the EA and has established a project leading group (JPLG) headed by the vice governor of the province and a project management office (PMO or JPMO). The JPMO is located in the Jilin Provincial Development and Reform Commission (JDRC), and is headed by the deputy director general of the JDRC. The JPMO draws its members from the JDRC, the Jilin Provincial Finance Bureau, the JEPB, and the Jilin Provincial Construction Bureau. The JPMO has overall responsibility delegated by the EA for supervising the implementation of mitigation measures and reporting to ADB. The subproject cities and counties have also established their own PMOs to coordinate and monitor the implementation of the subprojects. 7. In line with the requirements of the agreed EMP, the JPMO and local PMOs have established its environmental management units (EMU) to coordinate and supervise EMP implementation, guide and coordinate the departmental and subprojects' practices in environmental dimensions, liaise with governmental authorities in charge of environmental and social affairs, disclose relevant information, interact and communicate with communities. 8. The JPMO, the PMOs, the IAs and the contractors have each nominated dedicated, trained, and qualified staff to undertake environmental management activities and ensure effective EMP implementation. 9. Construction contractors are responsible for implementing mitigation measures during construction. The IAs are responsible for arranging environmental monitoring reviews and responding to any adverse impact beyond that foreseen in the EIAs.

  • Gully Erosion Control Practices in Northeast China: a Review
    Article Gully Erosion Control Practices in Northeast China: A Review Xiaobing Liu 1, Hao Li 1, Shengmin Zhang 2, Richard M. Cruse 3 and Xingyi Zhang 1,* 1 Key Laboratory of Mollisols Agroecology, Northeast Institute of Geography and Agroecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Harbin 150081, China 2 Faculty of Engineering Management, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China 3 Department of Agronomy, Iowa State University, Ames, IA 500011, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 13 August 2019; Accepted: 10 September 2019; Published: 16 September 2019 Abstract: Gully erosion is the destructive and dramatic form of land degradation in Northeast China. The region is the grain production and ecological security base of China where the fertile and productive Mollisols are distributed. Though the region was agriculturally developed relatively recently, it went through high intensity cultivation and fast succession processes within short-time scales. Coupled with irrational farming practice choice and land use, hillslope erosion and gully erosion are seriously threatening agricultural production and environmental stability in the region. The awareness of gully erosion by the local governments started in the 1970s, and conservation measures were thus implemented. In this paper, based on our survey, communications with local farmers and stakeholders as well as investigation for gully erosion for the past three years, we summarize the practical and efficient practices to manage gully erosion developed by researchers and farmers in Northeast China during the past 50 years. These practices include various drop structures, soil check dams, masonry check dams, gabion check dams, wicker check dams, continuous live wicker, a shrub plant enclosure, and an arbor plant enclosure.

  • Japanese Rule Over Rural Manchukuo: Strategies and Policies
    JAPANESE RULE OVER RURAL MANCHUKUO: STRATEGIES AND POLICIES A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY MO TIAN September 2015 DECLARATION I, Mo Tian, declare that, except where otherwise acknowledged or noted, this thesis is entirely my own work. Mo Tian iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study is the outcome of a frustrating intellectual trajectory. It started as an enquiry into the political ideology of Manchukuo, but later on switched its direction to the examination of the political institutions of Manchukuo, and finally landed on the area of Japanese rule over rural Manchukuo. On the path towards completing this thesis, I have incurred debts to many individuals and institutions. This thesis would have never been possible without their assistance and support. First, I would like to thank my family for carrying me through this PhD journey. I dedicate this thesis to my mother Huang Wei. Her unceasing love has supported me in various ways. I dedicate this thesis to my father Tian Shubin who died prematurely in 2001. He was a great father who taught me to pursue excellence and to become a man of integrity. I dedicate this thesis to my grandfather Huang Kexuan who grew up in Manchuria under the Japanese rule. In my early childhood, he strongly cultivated my genuine interest in Japan. His stories of the various aspects of the Japanese rule in Manchuria are the sources of inspiration for my work on Manchuria. My mentors and colleagues in Australia have greatly facilitated the process of my writing. The three members of my examination panel have been tremendously helpful for my thesis writing.

  • Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation Under the Link Policy: a Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China
    Article Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation under the Link Policy: A Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China Cunming Zou, Jianzhi Liu, Bencheng Liu, Xuhan Zheng and Yangang Fang * School of Geographical Sciences of Northeast Normal University, Changchun 130024, China; [email protected] (C.Z.); [email protected] (J.L.); [email protected] (B.L.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-431-85099550 Received: 7 September 2019; Accepted: 10 September 2019; Published: 16 September 2019 Abstract: Land, nature, and the social environment in contiguous poor regions are harsh and difficult to change. The poor adaptive capacities of the socio-ecological systems of these regions are the main causes of deep, persistent poverty. In February 2016, the Chinese government issued a policy proposing to promote poverty alleviation by relocation (PAR) by means of the “Linking increases in urban construction land with decreases in rural construction land” policy (or simply, the “Link Policy” or LP), which intends to realize the sustainable social and economic development of local villages. Since then, many pilot projects have been carried out across the country based on local resources, environment, and economic development; however, few related studies on these cases have been conducted. After a review of poverty alleviation policies, this paper first introduces the unsustainable conditions of poor rural areas and the implications and advantages of PAR under the Link Policy; we then analyzed the complete PAR process, including formulation, implementation, and completion, by taking Tongyu County in Jilin Province as an example. The study found that the “whole village relocation” model practiced in Tongyu County was relatively successful in terms of improving the living environment, income, and public services of local villagers.

  • Sources of Metasilicate in Mineral Water of Jingyu County, Northeastern China
    E3S Web of Conferences 98, 01052 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20199801052 WRI-16 Sources of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County, northeastern China Changlai Xiao1, Yajie Yuan1, Xiujuan Liang1,*,Weifei Yang1, and Ying Sun1 1Key Laboratory of Groundwater Resources and Environment, Ministry of Education, Jilin University, No 2519, Jiefang Road, Changchun130021, PR China Abstract. The source of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County. located in Changbai Mountains of northeastern China, was analysed through two groups of water-rock interaction experiments. One is a hydrolysis immersion experiment using basalt and the other is an immersion experiment utilizing a mixture of soil, scoria, and clastic basalt under the same conditions. Results indicate that the metasilicate in mineral water is mainly derived from the hydrolysis of silicates and silica in the basalt, scoria, and soil. In the first immersion experiment, the release of metasilicate is linear, with dissolved metasilicate increasing continuously through time at a stable release rate of about 0.01 mg/(kgday). The second experiment indicates that the contribution of soil and scoria to metasilicate in mineral water is higher than that of clastic basalt under the same conditions. 1 Introduction Many studies on hydrogeochemical characteristics of groundwater and on water-rock interactions have been conducted by different scholars [1-4]. Natural mineral water has attracted much attention due to its special components that are beneficial to our health [2-4]. Changbai Mountains is one of the three largest natural mineral water sources in the world, comparable to the Alps and the North Caucasus mountains. It is also a source of mineral water, with a large area of 16,300 km2 covered with basalt.
