Ueda (Principal Evaluation Specialist), M.J. Dimayuga (Senior Evaluation Officer), I. Green (Consultant) I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION A. Rationale 1. A number of cities and industrial centers in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) are in the vicinity of major rivers, which increased the probability of risk from periodic flooding, and consequently adversely affected economic activities. Hunan Province borders the middle portion of the Yangtze River, which had major floods in 1998. This prompted a review of policies and practice on flood protection. The project supported the policies and plans for flood protection investments of the PRC and the Hunan Provincial Government (HPG).1 Despite the sector and subsector classification of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Rural Development, which cover natural resources and rural development, the project was primarily conceived to reduce flood risks 1 ADB. 2006. Report and Recommendation of the President to the Board of Directors: Proposed Loan and Technical Assistance Grant to the People’s Republic of China for Hunan Flood Management Sector Project. Manila. 2 in priority municipality and county-level cities. The recurrent flooding of Lishui, Xiangjiang, Yuanjiang, and Zishui rivers and their tributaries and the effects on the Dongting Lake area were constraining socioeconomic development in Hunan Province, with 56.4 million people and with 84% of the provincial population affected. Strengthened flood management was needed and the proposed project aimed to achieve this by supporting the government’s shift from a flood-control approach to one that is based on integrated river basin flood management and with a focus on economic and environmental sustainability and social inclusion. 2. The project was designed to support the implementation of part of Hunan's integrated flood control program under the Hunan Provincial 11th Five-Year Plan (2006–2010).2 The Asian Development Bank (ADB) country strategy and program supported this innovation.3 A sector loan modality was adopted as an appropriate way to support the government’s sector development plan that included organizational changes, investments, and policy reforms—all aimed at making broad sector improvements. The provincial project management office (PPMO) had experience with past and ongoing flood-control projects financed by the World Bank (WB) and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), and sector experience in the PRC was being gained through ADB support to two other flood management projects in the PRC.4 B. Expected Impacts, Outcomes, and Outputs 3. The intended impact of the project was sustainable and inclusive socioeconomic growth in flood-prone areas of Hunan Province. The expected outcome was improved flood protection for strategic and priority flood-prone areas in the upper reaches of the four main river basins in Hunan Province. Outputs were described as (i) nonstructural flood management systems, which comprise operational flood warning and management systems for up to 35 municipalities and counties linked to the provincial flood warning and management system; (ii) structural flood protection, resettlement, and environment management, which cover flood protection works completed in priority locations as part of Hunan's River Basin Flood Control Plan and the 11th Hunan Provincial Five-Year Plan—in compliance with the PRC regulations and ADB safeguard policies; (iii) project management and capacity building, which cover operational and strengthened project management and monitoring systems; and (iv) flood management sector planning, which encompasses selected sector assessments and planning to support the development of integrated flood management plans. This additional output was to be implemented with a grant-financed technical assistance (TA).5 C. Provision of Inputs 4. The project was approved on 29 June 2006, with the loan and project agreements signed on 4 October 2006 and loan effectiveness was on 9 January 2007. The original loan closing date of 31 March 2013 was extended to 31 December 2014. Reasons for the delayed closing date included (i) delays in land acquisition and resettlement; (ii) flood protection designs needed modification to be consistent with urban development plans, and construction schedule had to be 2 See the Hunan Provincial 11th Five-Year Plan (2006–2010). 3 ADB. 2005.

At appraisal, the total project cost was estimated to be equivalent to $497.4 million— comprising $242.3 million in foreign exchange and $255.1 million in local currency. Of this amount, $200.0 million (40%) was provided by ADB loan and $297.4 (60%) by government funds. At loan closing, project costs amounted to $567.6 million (a 14% increase in total project cost) with $191.2 million provided by ADB loan and $376.4 million by government funds—a 26.6% increased contribution in US$.7 On completion, some $8.8 million of the $200 million ADB loan as approved was not used because some contracts were canceled near the end of the project.8 The actual total project cost was higher than the estimate at appraisal mainly due to the

  • Molecular Characterization of the Viral Structural Protein Genes in the First Outbreak of Dengue Virus Type 2 in Hunan Province
    Guan et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2021) 21:166 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-021-05823-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Molecular characterization of the viral structural protein genes in the first outbreak of dengue virus type 2 in Hunan Province, inland China in 2018 Jiaoqiong Guan1,2,3, Zhanlong He1,2,3, Meng Qin4, Xialin Deng5, Jun Chen1,2,3, Suqin Duan1,2,3, Xiaojun Gao5, Yue Pan1,2,3, Junying Chen1,2,3, Yaping Yang1,2,3, Shijun Feng5* and Qiangming Sun1,2,3* Abstract Background: An unexpected dengue outbreak occurred in Hunan Province in 2018. This was the first dengue outbreak in this area of inland China, and 172 cases were reported. Methods: To verify the causative agent of this outbreak and characterise the viral genes, the genes encoding the structural proteins C/prM/E of viruses isolated from local residents were sequenced followed by mutation and phylogenetic analysis. Recombination, selection pressure, potential secondary structure and three-dimensional structure analyses were also performed. Results: Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all epidemic strains were of the cosmopolitan DENV-2 genotype and were most closely related to the Zhejiang strain (MH010629, 2017) and then the Malaysia strain (KJ806803, 2013). Compared with the sequence of DENV-2SS, 151 base substitutions were found in the sequences of 89 isolates; these substitutions resulted in 20 non-synonymous mutations, of which 17 mutations existed in all samples (two in the capsid protein, six in the prM/M proteins, and nine in the envelope proteins). Moreover, amino acid substitutions at the 602nd (E322:Q → H) and 670th (E390: N → S) amino acids may have enhanced the virulence of the epidemic strains.

Abstract (The Abstract is an overview of the contents of the dataset/atlas.) The diagnostic data of damaged vegetation restoration can reflect plant restoration status in time, and provides some effective support for disaster recovery and reconstructions of affected vegetation. This dataset is producted by the spatial distribution of damaged vegetation and corresponding plant phenology data, which use the dynamic threshold method to mmonitor whether the damaged vegetation is restored or not. The dataset covers the whole of Hunan province, which includes 101 counties and the spatial resolution of which is 250 meters. What's more, the diagnostic result of vegetation restoration is from 2008 to 2015, the pixel value of which represents the vegetation restoration status. The dataset contributes to forest resource management and related scientific research. ii.

We applied the Input-Oriented Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method and the Malmquist Index Model to estimate the efficiency of PHCIs in 86 counties in Hunan Province from 2009 to 2017. Then, the Tobit model was used to estimate the factors that influence the efficiency of PHCIs. Since the implementation of the new health-care reform in 2009, the number of health resources in PHCIs in Hunan Province has increased significantly, but most counties’ PHCIs remain inefficient. The efficiency of PHCIs is mainly affected by the total population, city level, the proportion of health technicians and the proportion of beds, but the changes in per capita GDP have not yet played a significant role in influencing efficiency.
