Stunning Scenery of Sichuan's Summits M A Y 2 7 - J U N E 2 , 2 0 1 6 CHINA DAILY ASIA WEEKLY P A G E 2 3 Sichuan special Stunning scenery of Sichuan’s summits Province’s mountain areas offer visitors unique flora and fauna,Li Jing reports. The vast mountain areas of Sich- uan province are blessed with a diverse range of alpine wild flow- ers and plants. Due to the different growing environments at different altitudes, one can find broad-leaved forests, coniferous forests, alpine bosk and meadows thriving simul- taneously. Sichuan’s Siguniang and Gongga mountains boast well-preserved pri- meval forests with intact ecosystems. Mount Siguniang, meaning “Four Girls Mountain” or “Four Sisters Mountain”, is the highest peak of Western China’s Qionglai Moun- tains. It encompasses four continu- ous peaks, with the main peak reach- ing 6,250 meters. The mountains are home to abun- dant alpine wild flowers and plants. Blossom season, which is from March to October, sees colors spread over the expanse of mountains, plains, meadows, and on the icy edges of the snow peaks. There is also an amazing diversity of animal life, featuring many national first-class protected species, including the Sichuan golden monkey, white- lipped deer, clouded leopard, snow leopard and occasional giant panda. The mountains’ attractions include: • Bipenggou Valley Bipenggou is famous for primi- tive forests, lakes, waterfalls, glaciers A diverse range of alpine wild flowers adds to the charm of Sichuan province in Southwest China.

    Making the State on the Sino-Tibetan Frontier: Chinese Expansion and Local Power in Batang, 1842-1939 William M. Coleman, IV Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2014 © 2013 William M. Coleman, IV All rights reserved Abstract Making the State on the Sino-Tibetan Frontier: Chinese Expansion and Local Power in Batang, 1842-1939 William M. Coleman, IV This dissertation analyzes the process of state building by Qing imperial representatives and Republican state officials in Batang, a predominantly ethnic Tibetan region located in southwestern Sichuan Province. Utilizing Chinese provincial and national level archival materials and Tibetan language works, as well as French and American missionary records and publications, it explores how Chinese state expansion evolved in response to local power and has three primary arguments. First, by the mid-nineteenth century, Batang had developed an identifiable structure of local governance in which native chieftains, monastic leaders, and imperial officials shared power and successfully fostered peace in the region for over a century. Second, the arrival of French missionaries in Batang precipitated a gradual expansion of imperial authority in the region, culminating in radical Qing military intervention that permanently altered local understandings of power. While short-lived, centrally-mandated reforms initiated soon thereafter further integrated Batang into the Qing Empire, thereby

Temperate glaciers are more sensitive to climate changes than polar or continental glaciers, and can drive remarkable runoff variation in local water catchments. Here we present recent glacier shrinkage and runoff change for Hailuogou glacier, a typical monsoon temperate glacier on the east slope of Mount Gongga (Minya Konga), China. The surface area of Hailuogou glacier has decreased by 3.5% (0.92 km2) between 1966 (aerial photographs) and 2007 (ASTER images). Flow measurements at a stream gauge about 500 m down-glacier commencing in 1994 display a remarkable increase in annual runoff (mostly during July–September) since 1999. Annual runoff over the same period in a non- glacierized but forested subcatchment (9.17 km2) did not experience significant change. By separating the daily rainfall component from the daily total discharge, monthly catchment water-balance series were calculated for the period 1994–2005, which shows an increasing trend of glacier storage loss.

The accelerated retreat of glaciers and the reduction of glacier ice reserves caused by climate change can significantly affect regional water resources and hydrological cycles. Changes in glacier thickness are among the key indicators that reflect this process. We analyzed changes observed in the elevation of glacier surfaces in the Gongga Mountains (GGM) using multi-temporal Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) derived from topographic maps, SRTM, ICESat and ZY-3 data. The results showed that the mean rate of change in glacier surface altitude in the GGM was ∼−26.7 ± 2.03 m − (0.54 ± 0.04 m a 1) between 1966 and 2015. The mean melt rates differed over different time periods, latterly showing an accelerating trend.

Mycosphere 5(1), 27–76, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/1/2 Abstract A total of 36 species of Hypogymnia are known from southwestern China. This region is a center of biodiversity for the genus. Hypogymnia capitata, H. nitida, H. saxicola, H. pendula, and H. tenuispora are newly described species from Yunnan and Sichuan. Olivetoric acid is new as a major lichen substance in Hypogymnia, occurring only in H. capitata. A key and illustrations are given for the species known from this region, along with five species from adjoining regions that might be confused or have historically been misidentified in this region. Key words – Lecanorales – lichenized ascomycetes – Parmeliaceae – Shaanxi – Sichuan – Tibet – Yunnan – Xizang. Introduction The first major collections of Hypogymnia from southwestern China were by Handel- Mazzetti, from which Zahlbruckner (1930) reported six species now placed in Hypogymnia, and Harry Smith (1921-1934, published piecewise by other authors; Herner 1988). Since the last checklist of lichens in China (Wei 1991), which reported 16 species of Hypogymnia from the southwestern provinces, numerous species of Hypogymnia from southwestern China have been described or revised (Chen 1994, Wei & Bi 1998, McCune & Obermayer 2001, McCune et al.

The mean concentrations of Cd and Pb were 0.034 and 1.291 mg/kg, respectively, in the needles and 0.101 and 2.511 mg/kg, respectively, in the twigs. These concentrations increased significantly with needle and twig age and peaked at 5 years. The twigs were significantly enriched in Pb and Cd compared with the needles. The spatial distributions of Pb and Cd were determined using the inverse-distance- weighted spatial interpolation method on the basis of the mean concentration of the elements in the needles and twigs from each site. The highest concentrations of Pb and Cd in twigs and needles were found in Yunnan Province and Gongga Mountain.

Flights Mammals 3. Visas 4. Accommodation Birds Qinghai Map INTRODUCTION I first saw Snow Leopard in Kazakhstan in 2003, well before Ladakh became the place to see the species. Plans to visit Ladakh have twice had to be aborted for health reasons and when it became apparent that Terry Townshend, and Jean-Michel Bompar (who had travelled with Sid Francis’s business partner, Roland) had both had success in southern Qinghai in 2016 I decided to give it a go with Sid Francis. 1 Qinghai 2017 Richard Webb It appeared a great move when we saw two leopards from the car within four hours of reaching the first site and although we only had one further sighting in the next nine days, we also heard leopards calling on at least two days and received what appeared to be reliable reports from yak herders of two leopards being seen in another of the valleys on a regular basis. It is unlikely that the area will ever rival Hemis in Ladakh in terms of its reliability for sightings given the number of well-trained leopard-spotters operating in that area. However the area appears to have potential with comfortable accommodation within 75 minutes’ drive of the sites and would be worth further investigation. I strongly recommend that anyone wanting to give it a try contacts Sid Francis to organise a trip at [email protected].
