Some of you from outside of China may be the first time to visit Beijing and if so we are sure that you already feel somewhat different from other places where you have attended the previous IAMG annual conferences. Language difference might be the first impression on your arrival but we are sure that the Chinese hospitality and rich cultural attractions in Beijing especially the NEW Beijing for Olympics 2008 will make you feel safe and relax during your stay for the conference. This year the conference received more than two hundred papers highlighting the main theme of “Geomathematics and GIS Analysis of Resources, Environment and Hazards”. Roughly half of the papers will be presented orally and rest as posters. The program includes three plenary speakers, two IAMG award winners, and three parallel technical sessions. Oral presentations are limited to twenty minutes each. Posters are displayed for a full day, with one–minute oral introductions to each poster in a special plenary poster session. Workshops will be held on Friday. Some free seats are still available in each workshop. Great Wall excursion will be held on Wednesday. Bus will leave and return at Xijiao Hotel. See the details when you register on site. The conference ice break will be held in the main building of the hotel. Buffet food will be served. You and your friends are welcome to meet with others in this special occasion. The conference banquet on Tuesday evening will be held in Xijiao Hotel.

  • Spatiotemporal Evolution of Lakes Under Rapid Urbanization: a Case Study in Wuhan, China
    water Article Spatiotemporal Evolution of Lakes under Rapid Urbanization: A Case Study in Wuhan, China Chao Wen 1, Qingming Zhan 1,* , De Zhan 2, Huang Zhao 2 and Chen Yang 3 1 School of Urban Design, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China; [email protected] 2 China Construction Third Bureau Green Industry Investment Co., Ltd., Wuhan 430072, China; [email protected] (D.Z.); [email protected] (H.Z.) 3 College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-139-956-686-39 Abstract: The impact of urbanization on lakes in the urban context has aroused continuous attention from the public. However, the long-term evolution of lakes in a certain megacity and the heterogeneity of the spatial relationship between related influencing factors and lake changes are rarely discussed. The evolution of 58 lakes in Wuhan, China from 1990 to 2019 was analyzed from three aspects of lake area, lake landscape, and lakefront ecology, respectively. The Multi-Scale Geographic Weighted Regression model (MGWR) was then used to analyze the impact of related influencing factors on lake area change. The investigation found that the total area of 58 lakes decreased by 15.3%. A worsening trend was found regarding lake landscape with the five landscape indexes of lakes dropping; in contrast, lakefront ecology saw a gradual recovery with variations in the remote sensing ecological index (RSEI) in the lakefront area. The MGWR regression results showed that, on the whole, the increase in Gross Domestic Product (GDP), RSEI in the lakefront area, precipitation, and humidity Citation: Wen, C.; Zhan, Q.; Zhan, contributed to lake restoration.

  • Seasonal Succession of Bacterial Communities in Three Eutrophic Freshwater Lakes
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Case Report Seasonal Succession of Bacterial Communities in Three Eutrophic Freshwater Lakes Bin Ji, Cheng Liu, Jiechao Liang and Jian Wang * Department of Water and Wastewater Engineering, Wuhan University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430065, China; [email protected] (B.J.); [email protected] (C.L.); [email protected] (J.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-27-68893616 Abstract: Urban freshwater lakes play an indispensable role in maintaining the urban environment and are suffering great threats of eutrophication. Until now, little has been known about the seasonal bacterial communities of the surface water of adjacent freshwater urban lakes. This study reported the bacterial communities of three adjacent freshwater lakes (i.e., Tangxun Lake, Yezhi Lake and Nan Lake) during the alternation of seasons. Nan Lake had the best water quality among the three lakes as reflected by the bacterial eutrophic index (BEI), bacterial indicator (Luteolibacter) and functional prediction analysis. It was found that Alphaproteobacteria had the lowest abundance in summer and the highest abundance in winter. Bacteroidetes had the lowest abundance in winter, while Planctomycetes had the highest abundance in summer. N/P ratio appeared to have some relationships with eutrophication. Tangxun Lake and Nan Lake with higher average N/P ratios (e.g., N/P = 20) tended to have a higher BEI in summer at a water temperature of 27 ◦C, while Yezhi Lake with a relatively lower average N/P ratio (e.g., N/P = 14) tended to have a higher BEI in spring and autumn at a water temperature of 9–20 ◦C.

  • Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-Carbon City Construction , 46 Th ISOCARP Congress 2010
    Zhang Wentong, Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-carbon City Construction , 46 th ISOCARP Congress 2010 Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-carbon City Construction Development in Wuhan, China Zhang Wentong Yidong Hu I. Exploration on Planning of Low-carbon City Construction under the Global Context The concept of low-carbon is proposed in the context of responding to global climate change and advocating reducing the discharge of greenhouse gases in human’s production activities. While in the urban area, the low-carbon city is evolved gradually from the concept of ecological city, and these two can go hand in hand. The connotation of low-carbon city has also changed from the environment subject majoring in reducing carbon emission to a comprehensive subject including society, culture, economy and environment. Low-carbon city has become a macro-system synthesizing low-carbon technology, low-carbon production & consumption mode and mode of operation of low-carbon city. At last it will be amplified to the entire level of ecological city. The promotion of low-carbon city construction has a profound background of times and practical significance. Just as Professor Yu Li from Cardiff University of Great Britain has summed up, at least there are reasons from three aspects for the promotion of low-carbon city construction: firstly, reduce the emission of carbon through the building of ecological cities and return to a living style with the harmonious development between man and the nature; secondly, different countries hope to obtain a leading position in innovation through exploration on ecological city technology, idea and development mode and to lead the construction of sustainable city of the next generation; thirdly, to resolve the main problems in the country and local areas as well as the problem of “global warming”.

Received: 13 October 2018; Accepted: 18 November 2018; Published: 22 November 2018 Abstract: Environmental assessment of eutrophication or heavy metals in urban lakes is an important reference for identifying the pollution degree and formulating pollution prevention strategies. At present, the most research on lake health states is often evaluated from a single angle for toxic metals pollution or eutrophication using the standard comparison method for both, the comprehensive trophic level index (TLI), and the health risk assessment for toxic metals. Moreover, the above deterministic methods probably lead to biased or unreliable assessment due to the randomness and fuzziness in environment system caused by natural change and human activities.
