  • Assessment of Heavy Metal Pollution in Surface Soils of Urban Parks in Beijing, China
    Chemosphere 60 (2005) 542–551 www.elsevier.com/locate/chemosphere Assessment of heavy metal pollution in surface soils of urban parks in Beijing, China Tong-Bin Chen a,*, Yuan-Ming Zheng a, Mei Lei a, Ze-Chun Huang a, Hong-Tao Wu a, Huang Chen a, Ke-Ke Fan b,KeYuc, Xiao Wu b, Qin-Zheng Tian b a Center for Environmental Remediation, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 11A Datun Road, Beijing 100101, PR China b Middle School Affiliated to People’s University of China, Beijing 100081, PR China c Computing Laboratory, Oxford University, Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3QD, UK Received 29 March 2004; received in revised form 23 December 2004; accepted 24 December 2004 Available online 10 February 2005 Abstract Assessing the concentration of potentially harmful heavy metals in the soil of urban parks is imperative in order to evaluate the potential risks to residents and tourists. To date, little research on soil pollution in ChinaÕs urban parks has been conducted. To identify the concentrations and sources of heavy metals, and to assess the soil environmental qua- lity, samples were collected from 30 urban parks located in the city of Beijing. Subsequently, the concentrations of Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn in the samples were analyzed. The investigation revealed that the accumulations of Cu and Pb were read- ily apparent in the soils. The integrated pollution index (IPI) of these four metals ranged from 0.97 to 9.21, with the highest IPI in the densely populated historic center district (HCD). Using multivariate statistic approaches (principal components analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis), two factors controlling the heavy metal variability were obtained, which accounted for nearly 80% of the total variance.

  • Spatial Variations in Amenity Values: New Evidence from Beijing, China
    SERC DISCUSSION PAPER 113 Spatial Variations in Amenity Values: New Evidence from Beijing, China Wenjie Wu (Department of Geography & Environment, London School of Economics & Political Science) June 2012 This work is part of the research programme of the independent UK Spatial Economics Research Centre funded by a grant from the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), Department for Business, Innovation & Skills (BIS) and the Welsh Assembly Government. The support of the funders is acknowledged. The views expressed are those of the authors and do not represent the views of the funders. © W. Wu, submitted 2012 Spatial Variations in Amenity Values: New Evidence from Beijing, China Wenjie Wu* June 2012 * Department of Geography & Environment, London School of Economics Acknowledgements I am grateful to Steve Gibbons and Paul Cheshire. Thanks for advice and support to Olmo Silva, Henry Overman, Guanpeng Dong, Mark Partridge, Jouke Van Dijk, Siqi Zheng. Participants at the SERC seminar (2010), Conference of Regional Science Association International-British and Irish Section (2011), and International China Workshop on Regional, Urban, and Spatial Economics (2012) provided helpful comments on previous versions of the paper. Any remaining errors and omissions are mine. Abstract Using parks as an example, this paper explores the robustness and sources of spatial variation in the estimated amenity values using an extended geographically weighted regression (GWR) technique. This analysis, illustrated with estimates using geo-coded data from Beijing’s residential land market, has three important implications. First, it provides a powerful estimation strategy to evaluate how sensitive GWR parameters are to unobserved amenities and complementarities between amenities. Second, it compares the spatial variation patterns for the marginal prices of proximity to parks, estimated using a range of GWR model specifications.

Visual cultures have been implicated in creative policies of the state and in global cultural networks (such as the art world, film festivals and the Internet), particularly since the emergence of digital technologies. Asia is home to some of the major film, television and video industries in the world, while Asian contemporary artists are selling their works for record prices at the international art markets. Visual communication and innovation is also thriving in transnational networks and communities at the grass-roots level. Asian Visual Cultures seeks to explore how the texts and contexts of Asian visual cultures shape, express and negotiate new forms of creativity, subjectivity and cultural politics. It specifically aims to probe into the political, commercial and digital contexts in which visual cultures emerge and circulate, and to trace the potential of these cultures for political or social critique. It welcomes scholarly monographs and edited volumes in English by both established and early-career researchers. Series Editors Jeroen de Kloet, University

  • Sister School Visit Septermber 2019
    McKinnon Primary School Sister School Visit 15th September – 26th September 2019 Mr William Meng Ms Simone Eirth, Ms Suzanne Khatib, Mr David Kefaloukos Day 1 On Sunday, 15th September 2019. All of our adventurers (17 students and 4 teachers) met at the Melbourne Airport, Qantas Domestic Terminal 1 at 4 am. We started developing our independence from the very first minute. We lifted our own luggage to the check-in counter, we had a quick goodbye-kiss with our parents and we were so proud of ourselves as no one had difficulties to the separation with parents. Then, we went through the security check. It was another challenge for us. We had to put everything into the tubs and quickly packed them up at the end of the conveyor belt in about two minutes. In addition, we had to remind ourselves many times about the passport and boarding passes. After we arrived at the boarding gate, we went through our detail study focuses, essential agreement and the student booklet. Then, we lined up for boarding and everyone held their own backpack, passports and boarding passes. Everyone was waiting for their turn quietly and it was an excellent representation of our school image. After we got on board the QF 400, we had a nice breakfast and we chatted with the friends who were sitting next to us. We were excited about this coming trip. We had a short stopover in Sydney. During that two-hour transit, we took the shuttle bus to change the terminal from domestic to international and we went through the immigration customs and another security check.
