In the Sichuan province, livelihood security and social development are particularly sensitive to changes in the sloping farmland, due to the region’s large portion of hilly territory and its over-dense population. In this study, we focused on spatiotemporal change of the sloping farmland and its driving forces in the Sichuan province. Sloping farmland areas were extracted from geographic data from digital elevation model (DEM) and land use maps, and the driving forces of the spatiotemporal change were analyzed using a principal component analysis (PCA). The results indicated that, from 2000 to 2015, sloping farmland decreased by 3263 km2 in the Sichuan province. The area of gently sloping farmland (<10◦) decreased dramatically by 1467 km2, especially in the capital city, Chengdu, and its surrounding areas.

In view the particularities of the first phase, this paper researches mainly after three stages. 1. The level of the urbanization enhances unceasingly. With the reform and opening-up and the rapid development of social economy, the urbanization in Sichuan has significant achievements. The average annual growth of the level of urbanization is 0.8 percent in the twelve years of the second stage. The average annual growth in the third stage and the four stages is individually 0.5 and 1.3 percentage. The average annual growth of urbanization in the fourth stage is faster respectively 0.5 and 0.8 percent than the previous two stages which reflects obviously the rapid rise of the urbanization after the fourth stage in Sichuan.

  • The Formation of Modern Sichuan Opera Sound Tunes Music Sheng
    2020 5th International Conference on Education and Social Development (ICESD 2020) ISBN: 978-1-60595-676-3 The Formation of Modern Sichuan Opera Sound Tunes Music Sheng-Dong YUE* and Kun-Jie MA School of Music of Chengdu Normal University, Sichuan, China *[email protected] Keywords: Modern Sichuan opera; Sichuan opera music; "Five tunes integration." Abstract. The Sichuan opera music which we see now is a synthesis of local opera art formed at the beginning of the 20th century, belonging to "modern Sichuan opera music," which is essentially different from the "Sichuan tune" and "Sichuan opera" before the 20th century. In fact, at the end of the 1930s, there was no proper term for "Sichuan opera," only "Sichuan tune," "Sichuan clapper" and other appellations of single tune, which did not have the significance of drama. Modern Sichuan opera music has come into being under the influence of "Drama Improvement" movement in the early 20th century directly because of the establishment of "Sanqing Club." The Basis of Modern Sichuan Opera Sound Tunes Music Form In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the class contradictions and ethnic contradictions in Sichuan were intricate and fierce, in which the long-term melee between the Ming army, the Qing army, the peasant insurgents and the landlords led to the collapse of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, and floods, droughts, plagues and famines occurred in successive years. According to The History of Sichuan in the Qing Dynasty which is compiled by Wang gang, the population of Sichuan province in the 18th year of Qing dynasty when Emperor Shun Zhi ruled over the country was only 300,000 to 500,000, equivalent to 2.6% of the 6th year in Wanli period of Ming dynasty.
