    atmosphere Article Spatio-Temporal Evolution and Prediction of Tourism Comprehensive Climate Comfort in Henan Province, China Junyuan Zhao 1 and Shengjie Wang 2,* 1 School of Business, Xinyang College, West Section of Xinqi Avenue, Shihe District, Xinyang 464000, China; [email protected] 2 College of Geography and Environment Science, Northwest Normal University, No. 967, Anning East Road, Lanzhou 730070, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The tourism comprehensive climate comfort index (TCCI) was used to evaluate the tourism climate comfort in Henan Province in the last 61 years, and its future development trend is predicted. The results showed that the temporal variation of the TCCI had a “double peak” type (monthly variation), and an overall comfort improvement trend (interannual variation). The change of tourism climate comfort days was similar to the change of the index, especially in the months with a low comfort level. In space, the distribution of the TCCI gradually increased from northeast to southwest, and the area with a high comfort level also increased over time. Meanwhile, it also showed the spatial distribution of months with a low comfort level, which provides reliable information for tourists to use when choosing tourist destinations across all periods of the year. The TCCI was classified by hierarchical classification, and principal components were extracted to explore the main climate factors controlling different types of TCCIs and the relationship between them, and Citation: Zhao, J.; Wang, S. large-scale atmospheric–oceanic variability. According to the temporal change trend and correlation, Spatio-Temporal Evolution and the long-term change trend of tourism climate comfort was predicted, which will provide a scientific Prediction of Tourism Comprehensive basis for tourism planners to choose tourist destinations.

  • Brief Introduction of Zhengzhou

It is also the Chinese important interior open city and the historical city. North Zhengzhou is near Yellow River, south depends on Mt. Songshan, west neighbour 13 dynasty ancient capital Luoyang, east neighbour seven dynasty ancient capital Kaifeng. Zhengzhou is in itself also Chinese one of eight big ancient capitals. The city is the first destination for any Henan Tour. The ancient city was the capital of Shang Dynasty (16th - 11th century BC) 3,500 years ago when porcelain and the Chinese technique of bronze smelting were comparatively more developed. A green ceramic glaze pot unearthed in Zhengzhou has been shown to be the most ancient porcelain in China. A long history has left Zhengzhou with many cultural and historic sites. Shaolin Temple situated at the foot of Mt. Song is the cradle of Shaolin Kong Fu. If you are interested in Chinese Kong Fu, the temple and the performances must be seen. One of the four Academies of Classical Learning in the Song Dynasty (960 - 1279), Songyang Shuyuan, gives a complete depiction of Chinese ancient education.

  • Transcultural Space and the Evolution of the Hui-Muslim Communities In
    The Mosque-centered Trade as a Spatial Model in China: Mosque Proximity, Market Proximity and Cultural Embeddedness Shaowei Ai Center for Yellow River Civilization and Sustainable Development and Collaborative Innovation Center for Yellow River Civilization, Henan University, Kaifeng, Henan Province, China E-Mail Address: [email protected] [email protected] Supported by the Project “Spatial Pattern & Development Path of Modern Transformation of Urban Hui Communities: Case Studies of “Zheng-Bian-Luo-Hu” Urban Ethnic Districts” (Project Number: 41471104) awarded by National Nature Science Foundation of China ABSTRACT The "mosque-centered trade is an important and impressive feature of the urban Hui Muslims in China, but it is a big open question and has not been paid enough attention by the academic circle for a long time. Based on the observations on the complication and variability of "mosque-centered trade", the theoretical debates on spatial agglomeration, the focus on cultural construction or cultural embeddedness, and the deep investigation and spatial analysis on the typical case of Eastern Grand Mosque of Shunhe Hui District in Kaifeng, our aim in this paper is, firstly, to highlight the unresolved issues on the spatial pattern of "mosque-centered trade" and, secondly, to made a heuristic theoretical explanation on its spatial characteristics, co-occurring conditions and mechanisms. When doing so, the paper highlights the conditions under which the spatial model of "mosque-centered trade" can be represented geographically and culturally. The findings have been shown as follows: 1) It is argued that the spatial pattern of "mosque-centered trade" can be demonstrated as the variable "mosque-market-proximity" configuration which is contingent on the interactive spatial relationship between the mosque and local markets and its relation to the cultural embeddedness and spatiality of commercial traditions of Hui Muslims 1 in China.

  • Comprehensive Transportation Logistics Network Level Layout Based on Principal Component Factor and Cluster Analysis
    MATEC Web of Conferences 100 , 05047 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/ matecconf/201710005047 GCMM 2016 Comprehensive Transportation Logistics Network Level Layout Based on Principal Component Factor and Cluster Analysis Jingrong Zhang School of Management Engineering, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou Henan, China Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Comprehensive Transportation Logistics Network (CTLN) acts as a crucial prop and fundamental carrier for regional economic and social development. Firstly, an index system for evaluating the development of regional Comprehensive Transportation Logistics (CTL) nodes is established; then regional CTLN nodes are ranked according to their importance by the method of Principal Component Analysis(PCA), and main factors affecting the development of regional CTL nodes are analyzed by applying factor analysis, and regional CTL nodes are classified according to their feature similarities by applying cluster analysis; and then level structure of constructing regional CTLN is proposed. Finally, combined with geographic locations of different nodes, level layout model of CTLN of the whole region is obtained. Taking Henan province this region as an instance, level layout model of hub-and-spoke CTLN taking Zhengzhou at its core is proposed after analysis, providing a reference basis for constructing CTLN in whole province scientifically and reasonably. 1 Introduction Transportation logistics remains a vital precursor and basis for the development of modern logistics, also a key link and crucial component for the development of regional logistics, as well as acts as the significant driving force for developing regional manufacturing industry and commercial circulation business. And transportation logistics network is an important prop and fundamental carrier for the development of regional economy and society and for joint development of logistics industry and manufacturing industry.
