Received: 18 June 2020; Accepted: 25 July 2020; Published: 28 July 2020 Abstract: Land use/cover change (LUCC) and ecosystem service functions are current hot topics in global research on environmental change. A comprehensive analysis and understanding of the land use changes and ecosystem services, and the equilibrium state of the interaction between the natural environment and the social economy is crucial for the sustainable utilization of land resources. We used remote sensing image to research the LUCC, ecosystem service value (ESV), and ecological economic harmony (EEH) in eight main urban areas of Harbin in China from 1990 to 2015. The results show that, in the past 25 years, arable land—which is a part of ecological land—is the main source of construction land for urbanization, whereas the other ecological land is the main source of conversion to arable land.

  • Responses to Inquires Made During 2014 Ranavirus Workshop in Harbin, China
    Responses to Inquires Made during 2014 Ranavirus Workshop in Harbin, China Submitted by: XiaoLong Wang,PhD, Prof.,Director 1Center of Conservation Medicine & Ecological Safety,Northeast Forestry Univ., Ministry of Education, PRC 2College of Wildlife Resource, Northeast Forestry Univ.,Ministry of Education, PRC 26 Hexing Rd, Xiangfang District Harbin, 150040 Heilongjiang Province, P.R. China Mobile:13836142920 Office: 86-0451-82190617 a. What are the most urgent areas of investigation in Asia? Historical experiences told us that in China in wildlife diseases, it existed unlimited possible in the type of pathogens, susceptibility of hosts, and pathological damages, and so on. Under the great pressure of human activities, the dynamics of diseases have always been changing and very difficult to be intimate. So in my mind two things will be important: one is the broad basic investigation of ranaviruses in multiple species; another one is a multi-year dynamic mapping of ranaviruses. But all these are time and energy consuming work. b. What factors limit progress? The progress of ranaviruses research in wild amphibians and the enhancement of the conservation management level of amphibians in China, largely depend on the awareness and approval of governments. Now in the mind of the control departments for wild animal diseases, avian influenza is the only known disease, and other wild animal diseases are thought to be unnecessary; in the aspect of species conservation, only focuses on the flagship species, such as tiger and elephant. On the other hand, China government mainly focuses on the research field that has achieved a certain effect in the international society, which can also be understood easily in terms of resource competition.

  • The Inheritance and Development of Islamic Culture in Heilongjiang, Region of China
    Journal of the Punjab University Historical Society Volume No. 32, Issue No. 1, January - June 2019 Zhang Tong * Yu Jinshan** Zhang Xuepei*** Yang He*** The Inheritance and Development of Islamic Culture in Heilongjiang, Region of China Abstract The Hui is one of the 55 minority nationalities region in China. It is popular all over the country for special historical reasons. Compared with Qinghai, Gansu and Xinjiang, the proportion of Hui population in Heilongjiang Province is smaller. Unlike other places in Northwest China, Heilongjiang is not a centralized show area of Islam. The historical development of Islam in Heilongjiang has its own characteristics. Unlike the local religion in Heilongjiang (Shamanism), Islam is not a native religion there. Unlike Taoism and Buddhism, which were introduced into Heilongjiang in the early period, Islam is still a young religion with a history of only 300 years. The development of Hui population and the spread of Islam in Heilongjiang are relatively special. Similarly, the language, culture, diet and even life etiquette of the Hui people in Heilongjiang gradually show the trend of localization in Heilongjiang. Throughout the historical process of Hui immigration to Heilongjiang in different stages, this paper studies the contribution and influence of the historical development of Heilongjiang and introduces the development history and culture of the Hui nationality with Heilongjiang characteristics, as well as the inheritance of religion. Key words: Heilongjiang Hui Islamic Mosque 1.0 Introduction The Hui is one of the 55 minority nationalities region in China. It is popular all over the country for special historical reasons. Compared with Qinghai, Gansu and Xinjiang, the proportion of Hui population in Heilongjiang Province is smaller.
