This paper summarizes the Ms 6.0 earthquake disaster that occurred in Changning, Sichuan Province, China, on 17 10 June 2019. Additionally, a description of the disaster emergency response is provided. As determined by on-site investigation and analysis, the direct causes of earthquake casualties are summarized. Among them, 66% of the casualties can be attributed to substandard seismic protection, 25% to improper earthquake risk avoidance, 6% to earthquake-induced geological disasters, and 3% to pre-existing diseases exacerbated by the earthquake. Responding to the causes of these four casualty types, we summarize 4 lessons, which are to build in accordance with seismic protection requirements; strengthen publicity and 15 education awareness of earthquake emergency evacuation and training for the population; investigate and evaluate potential geological disaster sources in the stricken area, along with conducting prevention and control; establish cooperation with health organizations, focusing on people who are older or have serious illnesses and conducting earthquake evacuation training and psychological counselling. 1 Disaster characteristics and disaster situation 20 An Ms 6.0 (Mw 5.8) earthquake struck Changning County, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, China, at 22:55:43 on 17 June 2019 (14:55:43 UTC on 17 June 2019).

  • Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China
    Country Report for the Preparation of the First Report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China June 2003 Beijing CONTENTS Executive Summary Biological diversity is the basis for the existence and development of human society and has aroused the increasing great attention of international society. In June 1992, more than 150 countries including China had jointly signed the "Pact of Biological Diversity". Domestic animal genetic resources are an important component of biological diversity, precious resources formed through long-term evolution, and also the closest and most direct part of relation with human beings. Therefore, in order to realize a sustainable, stable and high-efficient animal production, it is of great significance to meet even higher demand for animal and poultry product varieties and quality by human society, strengthen conservation, and effective, rational and sustainable utilization of animal and poultry genetic resources. The "Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") was compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "World Status of Animal Genetic Resource " compiled by the FAO. The Ministry of Agriculture" (MOA) has attached great importance to the compilation of the Report, organized nearly 20 experts from administrative, technical extension, research institutes and universities to participate in the compilation team. In 1999, the first meeting of the compilation staff members had been held in the National Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Service, discussed on the compilation outline and division of labor in the Report compilation, and smoothly fulfilled the tasks to each of the compilers.

  • My Visits to the Hmong in the Triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan
    A Hmong Scholar’s Visit to China: the Hmong in the Triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan by Kou Yang Nyob luag ntuj yoog luag txuj, nyob luag av yoog luag tsav (‘In Rome be like the Romans’--- Hmong proverb) I have made a few visits to the Hmong of the triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan, and will highlight below two of these visits: the visit in August 2009 to the Hmong of Qianxi (黔西),and my 2014 visit to the Hmong of Xingwen, Gong xian, Junlian, Gulin, Xuyong, Yanjin, Yiliang and Zhaotong. In early August 2009, I led a group of international scholars of Hmong studies to do a post conference visit to the Hmong/Miao in Guizhou Province, China. This visit was under the auspices and sponsorship of the Guizhou Miao Studies Association (also known as the Miao Cultural Development Association), and the guidance of its Vice-President, Professor Zhang Xiao. The group visited both Qiandongnan (Southeast Guizhou) and Qianxi (West Guizhou) Hmong/Miao of Guizou. The visit was my third trip to Qiandongnan, so it was not so special because I had previously written about and travelled to many areas within Qiandongnan. Moreover, Qiandongnan has been Guizhou’s premier cultural tourist region for decades; the Hmu represent the largest sub-group of the Miao in Qiandongnan. The language of the Hmu belongs to the Eastern branch of the Miao language. Economically, educationally, and politically, the Hmu are much better off than the Hmong and Ah Mao, who speak the Western branch of the Miao language. For example, I met with so many politicians, bureaucrats and professors of Hmu ancestry in Guiyang, but only one professor of Hmong descent.

  • The Confusing Identity of Pternopetalum Molle (Apiaceae)
    Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 158, 274–295. With 15 figures The confusing identity of Pternopetalum molle (Apiaceae) LI-SONG WANG1,2* 1State Key Laboratory of Systematics and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xiangshan, Beijing 100093, China 2Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100039, China Received 25 April 2006; accepted for publication 24 June 2008 The misapplication of the name Pternopetalum molle (Franch.) Hand.-Mazz. has resulted in considerable taxonomic confusion in the genus, involving 11 names belonging to seven taxa (according to a recent treatment). A supplementary taxonomic revision of P. botrychioides (Dunn) Hand.-Mazz., P. molle and P. vulgare (Dunn) Hand.-Mazz. is presented, after a detailed examination of the morphological variation. Four new synonyms, P. longicaule var. humile R.H.Shan & F.T.Pu, P. molle var. dissectum R.H.Shan & F.T.Pu, P. radiatum (W.W.Smith) P.K.Mukherjee and P. trifoliatum R.H.Shan & F.T.Pu, are proposed. Pternopetalum delicatulum (H.Wolff) Hand.- Mazz. should be reduced to P. botrychioides rather than P. radiatum. The previous taxonomic treatments of P. cuneifolium (H. Wolff) Hand.-Mazz., P. cartilagineum C.Y.Wu ex R.H.Shan & F.T.Pu and P. molle var. crenulatum R.H.Shan & F.T.Pu are reinstated. A key and distribution maps are provided for the accepted species. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 158, 274–295.

  • Geological Exploration and Route Selection in Karst Area of Yunnan- Guizhou Plateau of Chengdu- Guiyang Railway
    Geological Exploration and Route Selection in Karst Area of Yunnan- Guizhou Plateau of Chengdu- Guiyang Railway Zhang Yu-jun and Yue Zhi-qin China Railway ErYuan Engineering Group Co.ltd, Chengdu,China [email protected] ABSTRACT Sichuan Yibin City to Guizhou Bijie City section of Chengdu- Guiyang Railway lies in the transitional zone from the southern margin of the Sichuan Basin to the northwestern of Yunnan- Guizhou Plateau. In the transitional zone, karst and karst water are generally controlled by a variety of factors, including lithology, structure, geomorphology, meteorological and water network. With the variation of natural geological conditions, the development degree of karst, the development pattern of karst , karst water distribution and enrichment degree of the karst water change accordingly. Through comprehensive analysis of the factors affecting karst, the study area can be divided into three karst hydrogeological units including the fold zone in the edge of Sichuan Basin, Sichuan Basin - transitional Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.Since the end of the Cretaceous, the crust of the study area has experienced two big uplift and three leveled, three ancient karst erosion surface formed. Since the Pleistocene, the earth crust has experienced a number of intermittent rises that result in one to six terraces in the valley and the formation of corresponding multi-cave. The lithologic is the important factor that controls the development of karst; the Qixia Formation and Maokou Formation of Permian are most developed karst in fifteen karst horizons, and the underground river system are in the largest scale, then follows the Triassic; in alternating or interbedded layers of the non-karst and karst, the features of Karst is bedded, and hydraulic connection between layers is weak; The accumulation of karst water is mainly affected by the karst development degree, landform, lithology and geological structures.
