INTRODUCTION The Kingdom of Cambodia is rich in wetland environments. Over 30 percent of the country is considered wetlands (according to the wetlands inventory and management project). Following internationally accepted criteria for wetland identification (defined by the Ramsar Convention) over 20 percent (36,500km2) of the country may be classified as wetlands of international importance. This represents over five percent of Asia's total area of wetlands of international importance. Wetland areas support rice and fish production – the primary sources of food for the vast majority of the population and currently Cambodia's most economically productive sectors. Fish and fish products are the single most important sources of protein for the Cambodian population, representing 75 percent of the animal protein intake. Wetlands provide nutrient-rich and sheltered habitats for fish (breeding, spawning and nursery areas or habitats for adults) and therefore they play a central role in the supply of animal protein in Cambodia. Agriculture is supported by water from wetlands. Wetland water may be stored for use in the dry season or withdrawn for irrigation purposes. Other economic activities utilizing wetland resources include aquaculture, tourism, inland transport, and energy (hydro- electricity). Wetlands serve a wide variety of ecological functions that support economic activities or are of economic value. In addition to supporting agriculture and fisheries, they play a vital role in maintaining the water cycle and protecting inland areas from flooding. Coastal wetlands act as barriers against storm surges and protect the coastline from erosion. Many wetlands are important as filtering systems - cleaning up polluted water and removing silt, encouraging plant growth, and further improving water quality. Cambodia's wetlands are important sanctuaries for birds and other species of wildlife not commonly found in other countries in the world. They are also important for research and educational purposes. 2. COASTAL WETLAND ECOSYSTEM The Cambodian coastline extends along 435km of some of the least populated areas in all of tropical Asia. The coastal region features a number of closely interrelated ecosystems, embracing beach forest and strand vegetation, mangroves (including a Melaleuca dominated swamp forest referred to as "rear mangrove,” estuarine ecosystems, seagrass, coral reef and the unstudied marine ecosystems of the gently sloping, relatively shallow seabed (only 80 meters of water depth at the outer limit of the 200 nautical mile Executive Economical Zone), and of the water column above. Estuaries are semi-enclosed bodies of water that are connected to the sea and in which salt water is diluted by fresh water from land drainage. Estuaries are often highly productive areas due to the nutrients they receive from the land and the sheltered environments that they provide. The major estuarine areas in Cambodia occur in the region around Koh Kong province and near Kampot province. The Stung Koh Pao and Stung Kep estuaries are recognized as wetlands of international significance. Both rivers originate in the Cardamom range and discharge their flow into Koh Kong Bay. The Bay is protected from southwest storms by the large island of Koh Kong. The estuarine system is "a complex of channels and creeks, low islands, mangrove swamps, tidal mudflats and coastal lagoons.” Mudflats occurs when sediment settles out of the water due to a decrease in current and/ or wave action. Mudflats are often associated with estuaries, but also occur in low-energy, coastal environments, such as in large bays or in the lees of islands. They are commonly continuous with mangrove areas. Mudflats can be very productive system as a result of nutrients recycling through the sediments. Typically there are high diversities of invertebrates living in and on the mud, and as a result, the mudflats provide rich feeding grounds for vertebrates such as fish and waterbirds. Mudflats adjacent to the mangroves and in natural mangrove streams are exploited for cockles, although this is generally an unrewarding activity practiced only by those with no alternative form of income. The productivity of estuaries and mudflats is threatened by pollution from

  • Competitiveness Analysis of China's Main Coastal Ports
    2019 International Conference on Economic Development and Management Science (EDMS 2019) Competitiveness analysis of China's main coastal ports Yu Zhua, * School of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210000, China; [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: China coastal ports above a certain size, competitive power analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis Abstract: As a big trading power, China's main mode of transportation of international trade goods is sea transportation. Ports play an important role in China's economic development. Therefore, improving the competitiveness of coastal ports is an urgent problem facing the society at present. This paper selects 12 relevant indexes to establish a relatively comprehensive evaluation index system, and uses factor analysis and cluster analysis to evaluate and rank the competitiveness of China's 30 major coastal ports. 1. Introduction Port is the gathering point and hub of water and land transportation, the distribution center of import and export of industrial and agricultural products and foreign trade products, and the important node of logistics. With the continuous innovation of transportation mode and the rapid development of science and technology, ports play an increasingly important role in driving the economy, with increasingly rich functions and more important status and role. Meanwhile, the competition among ports is also increasingly fierce. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and the promotion of "the Belt and Road Initiative", China's coastal ports have also been greatly developed. China has more than 18,000 kilometers of coastline, with superior natural conditions. With the introduction of the policy of reformation and opening, the human conditions are also excellent.

  • Analysis of Tidal Prism Evolution and Characteristics of the Lingdingyang
    MATEC Web of Conferences 25, 001 0 6 (2015) DOI: 10.1051/matecconf/201525001 0 6 C Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2015 Analysis of Tidal Prism Evolution and Characteristics of the Lingdingyang Bay at Pearl River Estuary Shenguang Fang, Yufeng Xie & Liqin Cui Key laboratory of the Pearl River Estuarine Dynamics and Associated Process Regulation, Ministry of Water Resources, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China ABSTRACT: Tidal prism is a rather sensitive factor of the estuarine ecological environment. The historical evolution of the Lingdingyang water area and its shoreline were analyzed. By using remote sensing data, the evolution of the water area of the bay was also calculated in the past 30 years. Due to reclamation, the water area was greatly decreased during that period, and the most serious decrease occurred between 1988 and 1995. Through establishing the two-dimensional mathematical model of the Pearl River estuary, the tidal prism of the Lingdingyang bay has been calculated and analyzed. The hybrid finite analytic method of fully implicit scheme was adopted in the mathematical model’s dispersion and calculation. The results were verified though the method of combining the field hydrographic data and empirical formula calculation. The results showed that the main tidal entrance of the bay is the Lingdingyang entrance, which accounts for about 87.7% of the total tidal prism, while Hong Kong’s Anshidun waterway accounts for only 12.3% or so. Combining the numerical simulations and the historical evolution analysis of the water area and tidal prism, and compared with that in 1978, it showed that the tidal prism of the bay was greatly decreased, and the reduced area was mainly the inner Lingdingyang bay, which accounted for 88.4% of the whole shrunken areas.

  • A Novel Approach for the Assessment of Morphological Evolution Based on Observed Water Levels in Tide-Dominated Estuaries

Assessing the impacts of both natural (e.g., tidal forcing from the ocean) and human- induced changes (e.g., dredging for navigation, land reclamation) on estuarine morphology is par- ticularly important for the protection and management of the estuarine environment. In this study, a novel analytical approach is proposed for the assessment of estuarine morphological evolution in 5 terms of tidally averaged depth on the basis of the observed water levels along the estuary. The key lies in deriving a relationship between wave celerity and tidal damping or amplification. For given observed water levels at two gauging stations, it is possible to have a first estimation of both wave celerity (distance divided by tidal travelling time) and tidal damping or amplification rate (tidal range difference divided by distance), which can then be used to predict the morphological changes 10 via an inverse analytical model for tidal hydrodynamics.

  • List 3. Headings That Need to Be Changed from the Machine- Converted Form
    LIST 3. HEADINGS THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED FROM THE MACHINE- CONVERTED FORM The data dictionary for the machine conversion of subject headings was prepared in summer 2000 based on the systematic romanization of Wade-Giles terms in existing subject headings identified as eligible for conversion before detailed examination of the headings could take place. When investigation of each heading was subsequently undertaken, it was discovered that some headings needed to be revised to forms that differed from the forms that had been given in the data dictionary. This occurred most frequently when older headings no longer conformed to current policy, or in the case of geographic headings, when conflicts were discovered using current geographic reference sources, for example, the listing of more than one river or mountain by the same name in China. Approximately 14% of the subject headings in the pinyin conversion project were revised differently than their machine- converted forms. To aid in bibliographic file maintenance, the following list of those headings is provided. In subject authority records for the revised headings, Used For references (4XX) coded Anne@ in the $w control subfield for earlier form of heading have been supplied for the data dictionary forms as well as the original forms of the headings. For example, when you see: Chien yao ware/ converted to Jian yao ware/ needs to be manually changed to Jian ware It means: The subject heading Chien yao ware was converted to Jian yao ware by the conversion program; however, that heading now
