It has created “Ningguo Miracle” since 1990s. Its general economic capacity has been ranked #1 (the first) among all the counties or cities in Anhui Province since 2000. In order to analyze the influencing factors of competitive advantages of Ningguo City and explain “Ningguo Miracle”, this article have evaluated, analyzed and classified the general economic competitiveness of 61 counties (cities) in Anhui Province in 2004, by 14 indexes of evaluation index system. The result showed that compared with other counties (cities) in Anhui Province, Ningguo City has more advantages in competition. The competitive advantage of Ningguo City is due to the productivities, the effect of the second industry and industry, and the investment of fixed assets. Then the influencing factors of Ningguo’s competitiveness in terms of productivity were analyzed with authoritative data since 1990 and a log linear regression model was established by stepwise regression method. The results demonstrated that the key influencing factor of Ningguo City’s competitive advantage was the change of industry structure, especially the change of manufacture structure.

With the aim of exploring the usefulness of spatial analysis in the formulation of a strategy for schistosomi- asis japonica control in different environmental settings, a population-based database was established in Dangtu coun- ty, China. This database, containing the human prevalence of schistosomiasis at the village level from 2001 to 2004, was analyzed by directional trend analysis supported with ArcGIS 9.0 to select the optimum predictive approach. Based on the approach selected, different strata of prevalence were classified and the spatial distribution of human infection with Schistosoma japonicum was estimated. The second-order ordinary kriging approach of spatial analysis was found to be optimal for prediction of human prevalence of S. japonicum infection. The mean prediction error was close to 0 and the root-mean-square standardised error was close to 1. Starting with the different environmental settings for each stratum of transmission, four areas were classified according to human prevalence, and different strategies to control transmission of schistosomiasis were put forward.

  • 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.

    Note 88 September 2013 Infrastructure Policy Unit Public Disclosure Authorized 2012 PPI Data Update: Water & Sewerage Sector Private activity in Brazil spurs investments by 50 percent in 2012 Overview In 2012, 32 new water and sewerage projects reached financial or contractual closure in nine lower- and upper- middle income countries1, the same number as the previous year. There were eleven projects in Brazil, fourteen projects in China, and one project each in Ghana, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Peru, the Russian Federation, and Serbia.2 Four projects that closed before 2012 received additional investments in 2012. They were in Armenia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam. Total investment commitments (hereafter, investment, all in US$ unless otherwise indicated) in water and Public Disclosure Authorized sewerage projects amounted to $4 billion this year, up 50 percent from 2011. Of this amount, $3.9 billion was invested in new projects, while projects that closed before 2012 received additional investments worth $178 million. Three large Brazilian concessions (two sewerage collection and treatment plants, one water utility with sewerage) attracted nearly $2.5 billion, which accounted for most of the increase in investments in 2012. The compound annual growth rate in the water and sewerage sector was seven percent, in the period 2002-2012. 2012 US$ billions* Figure 1: Private investment in water & sewerage, by region 16 100 14 80 12 10 60 8 6 40 Public Disclosure Authorized 4 20 2 0 0 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 2012 AFR EAP ECA LAC MNA SA # of projects Source: World Bank and PPIAF, PPI Project Database. * Adjusted by US CPI This note was written by Robbert van Eerd, consultant to the Infrastructure Policy Unit (TWISI), Transport, Water and ICT Department, Sustainable Development Network, World Bank.

  • Geology of the Gushan Iron Oxide Deposit Associated with Dioritic Porphyries, Eastern Yangtze Craton, SE China
    International Geology Review Vol. 51, No. 6, June 2009, 520–541 Geology of the Gushan iron oxide deposit associated with dioritic porphyries, eastern Yangtze craton, SE China Tong Hou, Zhaochong Zhang*, Yangsong Du and Shunting Li State Key Laboratory of Geological Processes and Mineral Resources, China University of Geosciences, Beijing, 100083, China (Accepted 13 February 2009 ) The major Gushan iron oxide deposit, typical of the Middle-Lower Yangtze River Valley, is located in the eastern Yangtze craton. Such deposits are generally considered to be genetically related to Yanshanian subvolcanic-volcanic rocks and are temporally-spatially associated with ca. 129.3–137.5 Ma dioritic porphyries. The latter have a very narrow 87Sr/86Sr range of 0.7064 to 0.7066 and low eNd(t) values of 25.8 to 25.7, suggesting that the porphyries were produced by mantle-derived magmas that were crustally contaminated during magma ascent. The ore bodies occur mainly along the contact zone between dioritic porphyries and the sedimentary country rocks. The most important ore types are massive and brecciated ores which together make up 90 vol.-% of the deposit. The massive type generally occurs as large veins consisting predomi- nantly of magnetite (hematite) with minor apatite. The brecciated type is characterized by angular fragments of wall-rocks that are cemented by fine- grained magnetite. Stockwork iron ores occur as irregular veins and networks, especially with pectinate structure; they are composed of low-temperature minerals (e.g. calcite), which indicate a hydrothermal process. The similar rare earth element patterns of apatite from the massive ores, brecciated ores and the porphyries, coupled with high-temperature fluids (1000uC) suggest that they are magmatic in origin.

The Wanjiang City Belt analysis; the Wanjiang City Belt along the along the Yangtze River is a vital demonstration area for undertaking industrial transfer in China. With the accumulation Yangtze River. of factors relative to economic development, the construction land has increased sharply, and the regional ecological security pattern is facing new challenges. After collecting the image interpretation data of multi-period land use of the Wanjiang City Belt, this work studies the characteristics of construction land change patterns since 1995. The driving mechanism was also analyzed based on the GIS platform, land use transfer matrix, expansion intensity index, hotspot analysis, and mathematical statistics. The results showed that: (1) From 1995 to 2015, the urban land and other construction lands in the Wanjiang City Belt have increased, but the rural residential areas decreased in 2010- 2015. The three types of lands had the most significant changes in 2005-2010, and the other construction land was particularly prominent.
