Supplement of Geosci. Model Dev., 7, 2243–2259, 2014 http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/7/2243/2014/ doi:10.5194/gmd-7-2243-2014-supplement © Author(s) 2014. CC Attribution 3.0 License. Supplement of Air quality forecast of PM10 in Beijing with Community Multi-scale Air Quality Modeling (CMAQ) system: emission and improvement Q. Wu et al. Correspondence to: Q. Wu ([email protected]) and X. Zhao ([email protected]) Figure 1: The location of Baoding, Tangshan and Xianghe stations are shown as \green tringle". They are all in the Beijing's surrounding areas, where more point sources have been added in this paper. 1 The model performance on the Beijing's sur- rounding stations In the section, the PM10 hourly concentration in Baoding, Tangshan and Xi- anghe stations are collected to illustrate the model performance in Beijing's surrounding areas. The observation is from the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Atmo- spheric Environment Monitoring Network operated by the Institute of Atmo- spheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences[1]. The location of the three stations are shown in Figure 1, Baoding and Tangshan stations are located at the urban of Baoding and Tangshan Municipality, and Xianghe station is located at one county of Langfang Municipality. As described in the left figure of Fig.2 in the manuscript, the fouth do- main(D4) in the forecast system just covers Beijing Municipality, that Baoding, Tangshan and Langfang station, is either outside or nearby the domain bound- ary. Therefore, the \New" expanded model domain is used to check if the \added" point and \updated" area sources emissions would improve the model performance on the surrounding areas. -
Beidaihe^ China: East Asian Hotspot Paul I
Beidaihe^ China: East Asian hotspot Paul I. Holt, Graham P. Catley and David Tipling China has come a long way since 1958 when 'Sparrows [probably meaning any passerine], rats, bugs and flies' were proscribed as pests and a war declared on them. The extermination of a reputed 800,000 birds over three days in Beijing alone was apparently then followed by a plague of insects (Boswall 1986). After years of isolation and intellectual stagnation during the Cultural Revolution, China opened its doors to organised foreign tour groups in the late 1970s and to individual travellers from 1979 onwards. Whilst these initial 'pion eering' travellers included only a handful of birdwatchers, news of the country's ornithological riches soon spread and others were quick to follow. With a national avifauna in excess of 1,200 species, the People's Republic offers vast scope for study. Many of the species are endemic or nearly so, a majority are poorly known and a few possess an almost mythical draw for European birders. Sadly, all too many of the endemic forms are either rare or endangered. Initially, most of the recent visits by birders were via Hong Kong, and concentrated on China's mountainous southern and western regions. Inevitably, however, attention has shifted towards the coastal migration sites. Migration at one such, Beidaihe in Hebei Province, in Northeast China, had been studied and documented by a Danish scientist during the Second World War (Hemmingsen 1951; Hemmingsen & Guildal 1968). It became the focus of renewed interest after a 1985 Cambridge University expedition (Williams et al. -

The Coordinative Development in the Capital Region of China?
Zhai Baohui, Jia, Yuliang; Xu,Qingyun Coordinative development in the capital region China 40th ISoCaRP Congress 2004 A long Way to Go: the coordinative Development in the capital Region of China? Introduction From the analysis of ofgren (2000) we know that many efforts have been concentrated on large metropolitan regions in the Western sphere in a globalized world or giant cities of the developing world (Knox and Taylor, 1995; Sassen, 1991). The main focus has been on competitiveness, as responses to globalization, and urban governance, as a result of this pressure to become more competitive (Gwyndaf, 1999). The routine urban governance has been forced to change from day-to-day managerialism to entrepreneurialism and “boosterism” (Boyle and Hughes, 1994). Lever puts forward five questions to this concern. “Do cities compete? If so, for what do they compete? How do they compete? What are the consequences of competition? And, how do we measure and explain their competitive success?” (ofgren, 2000) To the first question, he identifies two opposing views. One is that cities indeed compete. They compete for mobile investment, population, public funds and large events as such sports and high level meetings. Cities are competing in the ability to create assets that make their local economy thrive. The other is that cities may try to develop favourable conditions for firms, but they are not as such involved in any competition with other cities. It is de facto capital that competes. It is the capital that needs corporate headquarters, financial institutions and markets as well as specialized services, and it is the capital invested in real estate, industrial undertakings, retailing and service. -

Measurement and Analysis of Green Water Resources Efficiency in Jing-Jin-Ji
E3S Web of Conferences 248, 02003 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202124802003 CAES 2021 Measurement and analysis of green water resources efficiency in Jing-Jin-Ji XieHeng1 1School of management of Tianjin University of Technology, research center for circular economy and sustainable development of enterprises, Tianjin 300384 Abstract. Jing-Jin-Ji as one of the most serious water shortage areas in China, improving the green efficiency of water resources is the only way to solve the contradiction between supply and demand of water resources and realize the harmonious development of economy, society and ecology. Based on the Super-SBM model and geographical detector model, this paper measures the green water resources efficiency of Jing-Jin-Ji from 2008 to 2018, and analyzes the spatial and temporal differentiation. The result shows that:The efficiency of green water resources in Jing-Jin-Ji fluctuates in an unstable state, and does not reach the DEA effective state, and there is a big gap between the maximum and minimum efficiency of urban agglomeration. 1 Introduction As the basis of maintaining life and health, freshwater 2 Data and methods resources are indispensable natural resources for human survival and development. However, the research shows 2.1 Super efficiency SBM model that there are about 1.5 billion people in more than 80 countries in the world facing the shortage of fresh water, Selecting super SBM model based on unexpected output and the problem of water resources has become a major as the evaluation model of Beijing Tianjin Hebei Urban strategic issue related to national economic and social green water resources efficiency can not only effectively sustainable development and long-term stability. -
