THE PROPOSAL 1. I submit for your approval the following report and recommendation on a proposed loan to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) for the Hunan Xiangjiang Inland Waterway Transport Project.1 II. THE PROJECT A. Rationale 2. Inland waterway transport (IWT) is an efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly way to move bulk commodities over long distances. Efficient use of waterways in a country to transport cargo can reduce congestion on roads and railways, lower the average amount of energy needed for freight transport overall, and cut back emissions of greenhouse gases. IWT can also be developed in ways that bring other benefits, such as the generation of hydroelectric power. 3. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has the world’s largest IWT network, both in terms of length and freight volume.2 About 24,000 kilometers (km) of the country’s waterways, or roughly 20% of the overall IWT network, are in the commercially significant class I–V category, which means they can accommodate sizeable vessels for navigation. Another 50% of the waterways are unclassified and 30% are in classes VI–VII. However until 2000, the government put more emphasis on improving highways and railways than on developing IWT. Public investment fell below what was needed to maintain and renew IWT infrastructure. Many inland ports on the network are old and lack specialized berths and modern handling equipment. The contribution of IWT to the overall transport system has also been constrained by weak institutional coordination between the local, regional, and national agencies involved.3 4. The government is now paying more attention to IWT. In 2007, it issued the National Plan for Inland Waterways and Ports (NPIWP), which was based on an assessment of IWT conditions and performance and outlined a program of investments to establish a network of upgraded, interlinked IWT routes. The NPIWP aims to increase the class I–III waterway network—navigable by vessels of 500 deadweight tons (dwt)4 and above—to 19,000 km by 2020 from less than 9,000 km in 2006. Priority projects will aim to upgrade main national waterways to each of the main IWT systems in the PRC from low classifications and make complementary improvements in their ports. This will create a core waterway network that can handle larger vessels and help realize the full economic potential of the country’s extensive IWT network. 5. Potential in Hunan province. Hunan is a landlocked province with a population of 68.4 million. One of six provinces supported by the government’s Central Region Development Strategy, it is rich in navigable waterway resources and has the third longest provincial IWT network in the PRC, with over 11,495 km of waterways, 107 ports, and 1,880 berths. However, 1 The design and monitoring framework is in Appendix 1. 2 The total length of navigable waterways stood at 123,683 kilometers (km) in 2009, of which 61,546 km were rated classes I–VII and 62,137 km were navigable but unclassified. Waterways are divided into classes based on the maximum size of the vessels they can accommodate, measured by a vessel’s carrying capacity in deadweight tons (dwt): class I (3,000 dwt), class II (2,000 dwt), class III (1,000 dwt), class IV (500 dwt), class V (300 dwt), class VI (100 dwt), and class VII (50 dwt). 3 Sector Assessment: Transport, and Information and Communication Technology (accessible from the list of linked documents in Appendix 2). 4 Deadweight tonnage (or dwt) is a measure of how much weight a vessel is carrying or can safely carry. 2 only 6% of its waterways and berths can accommodate vessels of up to 1,000 tons carrying capacity. In 2009, the network carried only 10% of the overall freight transported in the province in terms of ton-kilometers (ton-km). This reflected the longstanding low level of investment in IWT, when compared with investment in other modes.

However, very few studies have investigated the spatiotemporal expression patterns of circRNA during organ development, which is crucial for functional and evolutionary analysis. Results In this study, we systematically analyzed circRNAs associated with fatty acid metabolism in the three main organs (muscle, fat and liver) a tfour growth time points (30 d, 90 d, 150 d and 210 d after birth) for Ningxiang pigs, awell-known native pig breed in China known for its excellent meat quality. We identied 61,683 circRNAs and analyzed their molecular characteristics, potential functions, and interactions with miRNAs. The circRNAs exhibited notable spatiotemporal specicity in the form of dynamic expression.

  • Study on the Evolution of Spatial Forms of Rural Settlements in Xiangjiang River Basin
    2019 International Conference on Informatics, Control and Robotics (ICICR 2019) ISBN: 978-1-60595-633-6 Study on the Evolution of Spatial Forms of Rural Settlements in Xiangjiang River Basin Fang LI and Shao-yao HE* School of Architecture, Hunan University, China *Corresponding author Keywords: Xiangjiang River Basin, Rural settlement, Space Form, Evolution. Abstract. The spatial pattern of rural settlements in the Xiangjiang River Basin has changed greatly in both boundary and internal spatial forms. The spatial form of rural settlements has expanded or abruptly evolved, and the internal pattern has changed to varying degrees. This is the natural environment at that time. The economic environment and the social environment are closely related. This paper summarizes the rural settlements and takes the Xiangjiang River Basin as an example. Through the literature analysis and case analysis method, the general situation of the Xiangjiang River Basin and the spatial form of rural settlements are studied. At the same time, the evolution of the settlement form of the Xiangjiang River Basin is quantified. The analysis shows the diversified settlement evolution mechanism. Finally, it discusses the future of the rural settlements in the Xiangjiang River Basin and hopes to promote the sustainable development of the village. Preface Compared with foreign countries, the domestic eye corners of rural settlements and their spatial forms are relatively late. Since the introduction of the relationship between rural settlements and the natural environment in China in the 1930s, Lin Chao studied the classification of rural settlements in 1938 and pointed out that land is closely related to the development of rural settlements.

  • List 3. Headings That Need to Be Changed from the Machine- Converted Form
    LIST 3. HEADINGS THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED FROM THE MACHINE- CONVERTED FORM The data dictionary for the machine conversion of subject headings was prepared in summer 2000 based on the systematic romanization of Wade-Giles terms in existing subject headings identified as eligible for conversion before detailed examination of the headings could take place. When investigation of each heading was subsequently undertaken, it was discovered that some headings needed to be revised to forms that differed from the forms that had been given in the data dictionary. This occurred most frequently when older headings no longer conformed to current policy, or in the case of geographic headings, when conflicts were discovered using current geographic reference sources, for example, the listing of more than one river or mountain by the same name in China. Approximately 14% of the subject headings in the pinyin conversion project were revised differently than their machine- converted forms. To aid in bibliographic file maintenance, the following list of those headings is provided. In subject authority records for the revised headings, Used For references (4XX) coded Anne@ in the $w control subfield for earlier form of heading have been supplied for the data dictionary forms as well as the original forms of the headings. For example, when you see: Chien yao ware/ converted to Jian yao ware/ needs to be manually changed to Jian ware It means: The subject heading Chien yao ware was converted to Jian yao ware by the conversion program; however, that heading now
