    Experimental Research on Citation Tone of Liangzhou Dialect in Gansu Province

    2019 3rd International Conference on Education, Management and Social Science (EMSS 2019) Experimental Research on Citation Tone of Liangzhou Dialect in Gansu Province Ying Lia, Yonghong Lib, * Key Laboratory of China's Ethnic Languages and Information Technology of Ministry of Education, Northwest Minzu University, Lanzhou, Gansu 730030, China [email protected], [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: Liangzhou dialect, citation tone, fundamental frequency, fifth degree Abstract: The Liangzhou dialect belongs to Lan-yin mandarin in the Northwest dialect. Based on the recording data of fieldwork, this paper will use the method of experimental phonetics to study the citation tone of Liangzhou dialect. In this experiment, by extracting the fundamental frequency and analyzing the pattern and vocal range, we concludes that Liangzhou dialect has three citation tones: Yinping (44), Yangping or Shang (24), and Qu (51). 1. Introduction Liangzhou is the political, economic and cultural center of Wuwei City, Gansu Province. Liangzhou is located in the upper reaches of Shiyang River and the eastern section of Hexi Corridor. It borders Gulang, Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Jinchang, Minqin and Qinghai Province on all sides of southeast and northwest respectively. It always has the geographical advantage of ‘linking a line to the desert and controlling the throat of the five counties’. The study of Liangzhou dialect can be traced back to the "Longyou Dialect" written by Li Dingchao, a famous scholar in Gansu Province during the Republic of China. Although named after ‘Longyou’, it actually recorded the Wuwei dialect, which has important reference value for the study of Liangzhou dialect. In recent years, the researches focus on Liangzhou dialect is to discuss the phonology, and combine the Middle Ancient Sound and the Beijing dialect to reveal the phonetic changes and laws from the perspective of diachronic and synchronic.

Abstract: Rural clean heating project (RCHP) in China aims to increase flexibility in the rural energy system, enhance the integration of renewable energy and distributed generation, and reduce environmental impact. While RCHP-enabling routes have been studied from a technical perspective, the economic, ecological, regulatory, and policy dimensions of RCHP are yet to be analysed in depth, especially in the underdeveloped areas in China. This paper discusses RCHP in rural Gansu using a multi-dimensional approach. We first focus on the current issues and challenges of RCHP in rural Gansu. Then the RCHP-enabling areas are briefly zoned into six typical regions based on the resource distribution in Gansu Province, and a matching framework of RCHP is recommended. Then we focus on the economics and sustainability of RCHP-enabling technologies. Based on the medium-term assessment of RCHP in the demonstration provinces, various technical schemes and routes are analysed and compared in order to determine which should be adopted in rural Gansu.

Country and Sector Background Public Disclosure Authorized 1. Gansu Province, with its capital of Lanzhou and a total population of 26 million, is located in northwestern China. The economy has traditionally been based on agricultural production, mining of the province’s abundant mineral reserves, and heavy industrial development. Poor infrastructure and Gansu’s distance from the coast, have largely kept it isolated from the rapid development experienced by other provinces in China over the last two decades. As a result, Gansu is the second poorest province in the country, measured by per- capita GDP. Moreover, the province contains some of the country’s poorest communities, as listed on the Government’s national poverty register. 2. A major element of Gansu’s poverty alleviation and economic restructuring strategy is the development of a sustainable tourism industry.

    Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs Into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8

    DOI: 10.4312/as.2019.7.2.47-86 47 Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8 ∗∗ Nataša VAMPELJ SUHADOLNIK 9 Abstract This paper examines the ways in which Fuxi and Nüwa were depicted inside the mu- ral tombs of the Wei-Jin dynasties along the Hexi Corridor as compared to their Han counterparts from the Central Plains. Pursuing typological, stylistic, and iconographic approaches, it investigates how the western periphery inherited the knowledge of the divine pair and further discusses the transition of the iconographic and stylistic design of both deities from the Han (206 BCE–220 CE) to the Wei and Western Jin dynasties (220–316). Furthermore, examining the origins of the migrants on the basis of historical records, it also attempts to discuss the possible regional connections and migration from different parts of the Chinese central territory to the western periphery. On the basis of these approaches, it reveals that the depiction of Fuxi and Nüwa in Gansu area was modelled on the Shandong regional pattern and further evolved into a unique pattern formed by an iconographic conglomeration of all attributes and other physical characteristics. Accordingly, the Shandong region style not only spread to surrounding areas in the central Chinese territory but even to the more remote border regions, where it became the model for funerary art motifs.

    Study on Urban Efficiency Measurement and Spatiotemporal

    sustainability Article Study on Urban Efficiency Measurement and Spatiotemporal Evolution of Cities in Northwest China Based on the DEA–Malmquist Model Jun Yin and Qingmei Tan * College of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 211106, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 November 2018; Accepted: 12 January 2019; Published: 15 January 2019 Abstract: Urban efficiency can effectively measure the management and allocation level of urban factor inputs. Based on the data of 30 prefecture-level cities in Northwest China from 2006 to 2015, urban efficiency is measured by data envelopment analysis (DEA). Then the spatiotemporal evolution rule is identified by Malmquist model. The results illustrate that the overall average urban efficiency of cities in Northwest China each year from 2006 to 2015 was at the low level. Only Jiayuguan, Yulin, Yan’an, and Karamay reached the high average urban efficiency, while Dingxi, Pingliang, Guyuan, Shangluo, Tianshui, Longnan, and Baiyin were at the inefficient level. Most cities in Northwest China were still in the “growing” stage of increasing returns to scale. The scale of urban investment was relatively insufficient, and economies of scale had not yet formed. Cities with decreasing returns to scale were mainly distributed in the capital cities and the central and sub-central cities of Guanzhong-Tianshui Economic Zone with relatively abundant urban resources and capital. Cities with constant returns to scale were mainly distributed in four cities including Yan’an, Yulin, Jiayuguan, and Karamay with high efficiency. The overall comprehensive efficiency, technical efficiency, and scale efficiency of cities in Northwest China were not only low, but also showing a downward trend.

    Management Implications to Water Resources Constraint Force on Socio-Economic System in Rapid Urbanization: a Case Study of the Hexi Corridor, NW China

    Water Resour Manage (2007) 21:1613–1633 DOI 10.1007/s11269-006-9117-0 Management Implications to Water Resources Constraint Force on Socio-economic System in Rapid Urbanization: A Case Study of the Hexi Corridor, NW China Chuang-lin Fang & Chao Bao & Jin-chuan Huang Received: 11 January 2006 /Accepted: 30 October 2006 / Published online: 6 December 2006 # Springer Science + Business Media B.V. 2006 Abstract As water has become the shortest resources in arid, semi-arid and rapid urbanization areas when the water resources utilization has approached or exceeded its threshold, water resources system slows down the socio-economic growth rate and destroys the projected targets to eradicate poverty and realize sustainable development. We put forward the concept of Water Resources Constraint Force (WRCF) and constructed a conceptual framework on it. Conceptual models on the interactions and feedbacks between water resources and socio-economic systems in water scarce regions or river basins indicate that, if the socio-economic system always aims at sustainable development, WRCF will vary with a normal distribution curve. Rational water resources management plays an important role on this optimistic variation law. Specifically, Water Demand Management (WDM) and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) are considered as an important perspective and approach to alleviate WRCF. A case study in the Hexi Corridor of NW China indicates that, water resources management has great impact on WRCF both in Zhangye and Wuwei Region, and also the river basins where they are located. The drastic transformation of water resources management pattern and the experimental project – Building Water-saving Society in Zhangye Region alleviated the WRCF to some extent.
