  • A Spatial and Temporal Analysis on NDVI in Urad Grassland During 2010-2019 Over Remote Sensing
    MATEC Web of Conferences 336, 06029 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/202133606029 CSCNS2020 A spatial and temporal analysis on NDVI in Urad grassland during 2010-2019 over remote sensing Yueying Zhang, Tiantian Liu, Yuxi Wang, Ming Zhang, and Yu Zheng* Henan Key Lab Spatial Infor. Appl. Eco-environmental Protection, Zhengzhou, China Abstract. The temporal-spatial dynamic variation of vegetation coverage from 2010 to 2019 in Urad Grassland, Inner Mongolia has been investigated by analysing on MODIS NDVI remote sensing products. This paper applies pixel dichotomy approach and linear regression trend analysis method to analyze the temporal and spatial evolution trend of vegetation coverage over the past 10 years. The average annual vegetation coverage showed a downward trend in general from 2010 to 2019. The vegetation distribution and change trend analysis provide a thorough and scientific reference for policymaking in environmental protection. 1 Introduction Urad Grassland as the study area in this work is located in the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain in China, with dry and windy winter and high proportion of wind erosion and desertification land. At present, over 70% grassland is seriously degraded, which is the main sand source of sandstorm and poses a threat to ecological security in North China [1][2]. Therefore, it is not only a typical ecological fragile zone which is very sensitive to global change, but also a critical ecological barrier in the mainland. Fortunately, government has constantly funded billions of RMB in Urad Grassland since 2003 to encourage in closing grassland, restoring vegetation, returning grazing to grassland and reducing population density [1].

  • Vitasoy and the Cultural Politics of Packaging Jia-Chen Fu
    Fu, J-C. 2018. The Tyranny of the Bottle: Vitasoy and the Cultural :25/':,'(:$67( Politics of Packaging. Worldwide Waste: Journal of Interdisciplinary -2851$/2),17(5',6&,3/,1$5<678',(6 Studies, 1(1): 4, 1–11, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/wwwj.11 RESEARCH The Tyranny of the Bottle: Vitasoy and the Cultural Politics of Packaging Jia-Chen Fu This article seeks to illuminate the field of social and material relations that generated and were generated by the Vitasoy milk bottle. When Vitasoy began making and selling soybean milk in 1940, the materiality of the milk bottle underscored and participated in assembling producers and consumers in both productive and problematic ways. The milk bottle was a material instantiation of a pattern of desires closely associated with global modernity that gestured beyond the geographical specificity of Hong Kong to an idealized community of rational, health-minded milk drinkers. As a marker of hygienic modernity and a badge of humanitarian relief and nutritional activism, the milk bottle conveyed seemingly universal ideals about health and fitness and materially affirmed the new idea that soybean milk was a dairy substitute. How the Vitasoy milk bottle could perform such functions requires disentangling the multiple lines of influence, local and global, that helped make the milk bottle meaningful. Keywords: soymilk; Hong Kong; milk; packaging; performativity Introduction In the late 1980s and 1990s, the Hong Kong beverage company Vitasoy (Weitanai 維他奶) launched an adver- tising campaign for its soybean milk that tapped into an increasingly prominent public sense of longing for the past, particularly the seemingly less anxious golden era of the 1960s and 1970s.1 Vitasoy’s self-conscious adoption of a nostalgic aesthetic in its commercials cast Vitasoy and its soybean milk as emblematic of an earlier innocence.
