  • The Functional Structure Convergence of China's Coastal Ports

In this study, we investigated the transportation function of coastal ports in China from the perspective of cargo structure using a similarity coefficient. Our research considered both adjacent ports and hub ports. We found that the transportation function of some adjacent ports was very similar in terms of outbound structure (e.g., Qinhuangdao and Huanghua) and inbound structure (e.g., Huanghua and Tangshan). Ports around Bohai Bay and the port group in the Yangtze River Delta were the most competitive areas in terms of outbound and inbound structure, respectively. The major contributors to port similarity in different regions varied geographically due to the different market demands and cargo supplies. For adjacent ports, the functional convergence of inbound structure was more serious than the outbound. The convergence between hub ports was more serious than between adjacent ports in terms of both outbound and inbound structure. The average similarity coefficients displayed an increasing trend over time.

  • Origin and Character of Loesslike Silt in the Southern Qinghai-Xizang (Tibet) Plateau, China
    Origin and Character of Loesslike Silt in the Southern Qinghai-Xizang (Tibet) Plateau, China U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1549 Cover. View south-southeast across Lhasa He (Lhasa River) flood plain from roof of Potala Pal­ ace, Lhasa, Xizang Autonomous Region, China. The Potala (see frontispiece), characteristic sym­ bol of Tibet, nses 308 m above the valley floor on a bedrock hill and provides an excellent view of Mt. Guokalariju, 5,603 m elevation, and adjacent mountains 15 km to the southeast These mountains of flysch-like Triassic clastic and volcanic rocks and some Mesozoic granite character­ ize the southernmost part of Northern Xizang Structural Region (Gangdese-Nyainqentanglha Tec­ tonic Zone), which lies just north of the Yarlung Zangbo east-west tectonic suture 50 km to the south (see figs. 2, 3). Mountains are part of the Gangdese Island Arc at south margin of Lhasa continental block. Light-tan areas on flanks of mountains adjacent to almost vegetation-free flood plain are modern and ancient climbing sand dunes that exhibit evidence of strong winds. From flood plain of Lhasa He, and from flood plain of much larger Yarlung Zangbo to the south (see figs. 2, 3, 13), large dust storms and sand storms originate today and are common in capitol city of Lhasa. Blowing silt from larger braided flood plains in Pleistocene time was source of much loesslike silt described in this report. Photograph PK 23,763 by Troy L. P6w6, June 4, 1980.

    5 China Guanzhou-Kunming-Chengdu Optical Fiber Cable Construction Project A marker pole where optic cables were laid by this project (Sichuan Province) Outline of Loan Agreement Loan Amount / 5,349 million yen / 3,819 million yen Disbursed Amount Loan Agreement December 1996 Terms &Conditions Interest rate 2.3% p.a. Repayment period 30 years (Grace period 10 years) Final Disbursement June 2002 Date Project Outline Long-distance optic transmission network extending over Guangdong Province, Guangxi Zhuangzu Autonomous Region, Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province was con- structed, to accommodate the growing communication demand in these regions, as well as to improve the invest- ment environment in inland regions with a view to pro- moting economic development. Results and Evaluation Through this project, fiber optic cables (total length: 4,174km) and transmission facilities were constructed in three provinces and one ward, the total long distance switch capacity that was 770,000 lines in 1995 significant- ly grew to 1.6 million lines by 2001. Moreover, the num- ber of long-distance calls handled in the targeted regions, including mobile phones was estimated to be 14.6 billion (96% of the plan) in actual results of 2000. This project has provided a high quality communications service to a larger number of people than before through optic cables. In regard to the improvement of an environment suitable for investment in the targeted regions, it is generally rec- ognized that correlation exists between the conditions of communication infrastructures and expansion of invest- ments and economic development, and it is believed that this project has made some contributions toward industrial development, though there have been effects by third fac- tors outside the project.
