Due to the abundance of source rocks and Permian; Paleozoic; Accumulation conditions; the multi-term tectonic movements in this area, the hydrocarbon accumulation model is relatively complex, which has Accumulation Model. become the main problem to be solved urgently in oil and gas exploration. Based on the different tectonic backgrounds of the middle Permian in northwest Sichuan Basin, the thrust nappe belt, the hidden front belt, and the depression belt are taken as the research units to comb and compare the geologic conditions of the middle Permian reservoir. The evaluation of source rocks and the comparison of hydrocarbon sources suggest that the middle Permian hydrocarbon mainly comes from the bottom of the lower Cambrian and middle Permian, and the foreland orogeny promoted the thermal evolution of Paleozoic source rocks in northwest Sichuan to high maturity and over maturity stage.

  • Earthquake and Poverty with Chinese Characteristics Wenchuan Earthquake Affected Communities Ten Years After the Disaster
    UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Earthquake and poverty with Chinese characteristics Wenchuan earthquake affected communities ten years after the disaster Dragana Grulovic Asia and Middle East Studies/Chinese Society and Politics KIN4593 – Master’s Thesis in Chinese Society and Politics (30 credits) Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages Spring 2019 Earthquake and poverty with Chinese characteristics Wenchuan earthquake affected communities ten years after the disaster © Dragana Grulovic 2019 Earthquake and poverty with Chinese characteristics - Wenchuan earthquake affected communities ten years after the disaster Dragana Grulovic https://www.duo.uio.no Print: Webergs Print Abstract In May 2008, China was struck by a massive earthquake that killed closed to 70,000 people. Communities were torn to the ground, and the economic losses were enormous. Ten years have passed since the massive forces took place, and communities and lives have been rebuilt, with some preceding their pre-disaster economic levels. This study applies survey data to estimate the poverty rates in the Wenchuan earthquake affected communities ten years after the disaster. I find that in 2018, the poverty incidence was 3% in the overall area, as compared to 9% before the earthquake. Of the total of 198 sampled communities, 27 reported having no government- designated poor people. However, 23 communities have a poverty prevalence of 10% or higher. These communities have few characteristics in common in terms of demographic structure and access to public services. About half of the communities are located in government-designated poor counties, while the rest are not. Altogether, the poverty situation in the Wenchuan earthquake affected area reflects the complexity of poverty in China.
