  • Seasonal Pattern in the High-Elevation Fluvial Travertine from the Jiuzhaigou National Nature Reserve, Sichuan, Southwestern China

This is possibly the highest vegetated travertine setting of the world, from 2200 to 2900 m above sea level, an environment sensitive to minimal changes in temperature and precipitation regime. The evolution of the system is driven by two seasonal monsoon climate patterns with a wet spring–summer travertine deposition and then a dry fall–winter characterized by no precipitation or erosion. Spring and phreatic–vadose deposits transition from laminated columnar calcite to clotted micrite encrustation, possibly correlated with a mid-Holocene peak in precipitation and high lake levels in the northeastern Tibetan area connected to glacial advance.

  • The Chinese View of Nature: Tourism in China’S Scenic and Historic Interest Areas
    The Chinese View of Nature: Tourism in China’s Scenic and Historic Interest Areas Feng HAN BLA, Tongji University, Shanghai, China MLA, Tongji University, Shanghai, China Principal Supervisor Dr. Daniel O’Hare Queensland University of Technology, Australia Associate Supervisor Dr. Jeannie Sim Professor Jennifer Taylor Queensland University of Technology, Australia External Associate Supervisor Professor Binyi LIU Tongji University, Shanghai, China School of Design Faculty of Built Environment and Engineering Queensland University of Technology Submitted in part-fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of the Doctor of Philosophy December, 2006 Key Words Value, nature, culture, Scenic and Historic Interest Area, landscape, tourism, authenticity, cultural landscape, heritage landscape, conservation, World Heritage, China. I Abstract Tourism has greatly increased world wide in recent decades, especially in China. Nature-dominated Scenic and Historic Interest Areas, representative of the Chinese philosophy of the ‘oneness of nature and human beings’, are the most popular tourism destinations in China. Tourism impacts in these areas have been receiving the attention of heritage landscape conservation. Management actions have largely been determined with an emphasis on natural values. This thesis maintains that values relating to nature are socially and culturally constructed, and that they dynamically change through history. By investigating the social and cultural structures underpinning values related to nature, a macro-history method has been applied to explore the traditional Chinese View of nature from traditional Chinese philosophies and landscape cultures. An instrumental case study method has been applied to explore the contemporary Chinese values of nature. The relationships between traditional values and contemporary values have been identified.
