  • Completion Report (MEEF 2019-002, Phase I) Value of Peri-Urban And
    Completion Report (MEEF 2019‐002, Phase I) Value of peri‐urban and Small‐scale Mangrove Forests in the Pearl River Estuary as Fish Habitats Executive Summary This project aims to investigate the importance of peri‐urban, small‐scale mangrove patches in the Pearl River estuary (PRE) in supporting fishery production through the provision of nursery environments. The capacity for coastal wetlands such as mangrove forests to act as nursery sites is thought to depend on (a) the habitat structural complexity; and /or (b) the provision of food; these dependencies are respectively termed the “protection” and “food” hypotheses. Despite that these hypotheses having been proposed for decades, little direct evidence is available for assessing their application to mangrove ecosystems, especially small patches in peri‐urban settings. This study tests the protection hypothesis using small mangrove patches in Hong Kong and the PRE. The specific work packages (WP) of the project are: 1. To assess the value of peri‐urban small‐scale mangrove forests in the Pearl River estuary as habitat for juvenile fish. We survey the types and species of fish that utilize mangrove patches using underwater video cameras and nets. 2. To understand the importance of mangrove forest structural complexity for supporting juvenile fish use of the habitat. We conduct ex situ predation experiments using 3D printed real‐size mangrove structure and observe how juvenile prey fish utilize complex mangrove structures as protection from predation by larger fish. 3. To forecast juvenile fish behaviour in realistic mangrove structures under different environmental constraints using Individual Based Models (IBM). We are constructing the IBMs in a collaboration with the University of Giessen in Germany.

  • Three Cases in China on Hakka Identity and Self-Perception
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives Three cases in China on Hakka identity and self-perception Ricky Heggheim Master’s Thesis in Chinese Studie KIN 4592, 30 Sp Departement of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages University of Oslo 1 Summary Study of Hakka culture has been an academic field for only a century. Compare with many other studies on ethnic groups in China, Hakka study and research is still in her early childhood. This despite Hakka is one of the longest existing groups of people in China. Uncertainty within the ethnicity and origin of Hakka people are among the topics that will be discussed in the following chapters. This thesis intends to give an introduction in the nature and origin of Hakka identity and to figure out whether it can be concluded that Hakka identity is fluid and depending on situations and surroundings. In that case, when do the Hakka people consider themselves as Han Chinese and when do they consider themselves as Hakka? And what are the reasons for this fluidness? Three cases in China serve as the foundation for this text. By exploring three different areas where Hakka people are settled, I hope this text can shed a light on the reasons and nature of changes in identity for Hakka people and their ethnic consciousness as well as the diversities and sameness within Hakka people in various settings and environments Conclusions that are given here indicate that Hakka people in different regions do varies in large degree when it comes to consciousness of their ethnicity and background.

  • Air Quality in Hong Kong 2011
    IR QUALITY IN HONG KONG 2011 A Air Science Group Environmental Protection Department The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region A report on the results from the Air Quality Monitoring Network (AQMN) (2011) Report Number : EPD/TR 2/12 Report Prepared by : C. F. Chow Work Done by : Air Science Group Checked by : W. M. Pun Approved by : Dave Ho Security Classification : Unrestricted Summary This report summarises the 2011 air quality monitoring data collected by the Environmental Protection Department’s monitoring network comprising 11 general stations and 3 roadside stations. As a result of the enhanced vehicle emission control programme implemented by the Government since 2000, concentrations of respirable suspended particulates (RSP) and sulphur dioxide (SO2) at roadside have reduced substantially over the past decade. However, the level of roadside nitrogen dioxide (NO2) has shown an upward trend during the period. Additional control measures are being introduced to reduce its concentration. Thanks to the joint control efforts of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government and the Guangdong Provincial Government in cutting emissions in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) Region, the ambient levels of SO2 and RSP have also reduced in recent years. However, concentrations of ozone, a major constituent of photochemical smog, were on a slow rising trend over the past years. The two governments will continue to implement measures to alleviate photochemical smog and ozone problem in the PRD Region. As in previous years, concentrations of carbon monoxide and lead in 2011 remained at levels well below their respective Air Quality Objectives limits. Fine suspended particulates (FSP or PM2.5) was previously measured at 5 of the stations in the monitoring network while ozone was monitored at the 11 general stations only.
