River basins sustain ecosystems, are the paramount source of water for households, agriculture and industry, and fulfil many non-consumptive uses. Yet: Some 1.2 billion people are still without safe drinking water Some 3 billion are without sanitation, which threatens public health and water quality - Between 1950 and 1995 per capita water availability has dropped by 38% (developed countries) to 70% (developing countries with an arid climate) - Many ecosystems are being destroyed - Floods occur more often and cause more damage Many conflicts occur between upstream and downstream uses and between different types of water use Moreover, due to population growth and overexploitation, the demands made on river basins are increasing and the basins' capacity to meet these demands is decreasing. Consequently, if nothing is done, the problems will only get worse. From 27-29 October 1999 the International Workshop on River Basin Management was held in The Hague. The main objective of the workshop was to contribute to the preparations of the Ministerial Conference that will be held in The Hague on 21-22 March 2000, parallel to the Second World Water Forum. As river basin management will be a key issue at this conference, it was considered opportune to bring together experts from all over the world to discuss their experiences with river basin management and develop a set of recommendations and guidelines. The workshop was organised by the RBA Centre of the Delft University of Technology in co-operation with IHE Delft (International Institute for Infrastructural Hydraulics and Envirormiental Engineering), WL|Delft Hydraulics and the GLODIS-Institute of the Erasmus University Rotterdam. The participants in the workshop have adopted the Recommendations and Guidelines on Sustainable River Basin Management. The recommendations and guidelines have subsequently been used for preparing the brochure Towards Sustainable River Basin Management; Recommendations and Guidelines on Best Management Practices, produced in the context of the second World Water Forum and Ministerial Conference by the Dutch Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the Environment and the Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management, in co-operation with the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries, the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment, the UNEP Co-ordination Office of the Global Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment from Land-based Activities, and the RBA Centre. This report constitutes the proceedings of the workshop. It contains the opening addresses, the Recommendations and Guidelines, all keynote papers and most other written contributions. The armexes contain the list of participants, the workshop programme and the composition of the organising committee. The brochure Towards Sustainable River Basin Management is published separately by the Ministry of Housing, Spatial Plarming and the Envirormient.

Zoeteman Deputy Director-General for Environment, Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the Environment, The Netherlands. Ladies, Gentlemen, I am very pleased to welcome you to The Netherlands and to this International Workshop on River Basin Management organised by the Delft University of Technology and sponsored by the Dutch Ministry of the Environment and the Dutch Ministry of Water Management. "Everyday, 230,000 people join the human race. Each and every one of them will depend on water to live. Competition for fresh water is becoming more intense ....". This quote from the draft version of the report that the World Commission on Water for the 21st. Century is preparing, clearly sets the stage for the issue of water management in our world. On the threshold of the 2nd. milleimium we have not yet succeeded in managing this basic condition for life on earth in a sustainable way. On the contrary, hundreds of millions of people do not have access to safe drinking water and proper sanitation facilities. In many parts of the world, ecosystems have been damaged and people face serious flooding, droughts or polluted waters. Progress with water management is being made in some parts of the world, but overall economic developments and population growth will fiarther increase pressures on water resources. Since the 1977 Conference in Mar del Plata, water management has been on the agenda of the international communitv regularly, and policies and projects have been developed and implemented. Nevertheless, they fell short of expectations as was stated by the UN General Assembly in its Rio +5 evaluation. The Dutch government attaches high importance to international co-operation in the enviroimiental field. It has promoted sustainable water management in the past, and will continue to do so. In 1994, we organized in Noordwijk, about 20 kilometres from here, a Ministerial Conference on Drinking Water and Environmental Sanitation. Coming year, from 17 to 22 March 2000, the Dutch government will be hosting again a large international meeting: the Second World Water Forum and Ministerial Conference. On the agenda will be (1) the 'Long Term Vision on Water, Life and the Environment in the 21st century', prepared by the World Commission on Water, chaired by mr. Serageldin, vice-president of the World bank; and (2) the 'Framework for Action', which is an action programme, based on the Vision, and proposed by the Global Water Partnership. We hope that the Ministerial Conference will provide political commitment to these activities, and that it will give a push to concrete projects and actions on-the-ground. This means that in addition to a political declaration by ministers, Dutch government would like to see concrete results and follow-up coming out of this conference. In this respect, we expect a lot from your confributions during this workshop.

Geologisch befindet sich das Bacher Gebirge am südwestlichen Rand des steirischen Beckens und nahe einer tektonisch sehr aktiven Zone der Europäischen Alpen: das Periadri- atische Lineament. Etwa 10 km nordwestlich des Bacher Gebirges verlässt die Drau das Miozän-Pliozäne Klagenfurter Becken und verändert ihre Fliessrichtung von Ost nach Süd, der Lavanttal/Labot-Störung folgend. Am Nordwesteck der Antiform des Bacher Gebirges wird die Drau wieder in eine Ost-Richtung abgelenkt, anstatt dem tektonischen und geomorphologischen Lineament der Lavanttal-Störung weiter nach SE zu folgen. Ab diesem Knick fliesst die Drau parallel zur Längsachse durch den Dom nach Osten. Ge- omorphologische und sedimentologische Hinweise zeigen, dass das Flusstales der Drau im zentralen Bereich des Gebirges um 1 km nach Norden an seine heutige Position verlagert worden ist.

The PAH levels were generally low over the year; however, the PAH concentrations increased according to one of two seasonal trends, which were either an increase in PAHs during the cold period, influenced by heating, or a PAH enrichment during the wet period due to higher run-off inputs. The major PAH source was the combustion of fossil fuels and biomass, but a minor input of petrogenic PAHs in some seasons was observed. Higher PAH concentrations were observed in fresh and brackish water compared to the saline waters in the Tumen River estuary, while the PAH concentrations in both types of water were similar in the Partizanskaya River estuary, suggesting different pathways of PAH input into the estuaries.

The NAPCC TA will undertake studies in three selected pilot sub-basins to develop strategic frameworks for addressing existing issues and likely scenarios of climate change. Framework planning would be applied to identify key issues, including surface, groundwater as well as the related water sectors including environment. The plans would set out broad strategies and programs to meet the needs of increased robustness and resilience of water systems against climate uncertainty, increasing water demand and environmental requirements. The pilot basins have been selected based on the type and likely degree of sensitivity to climate change. The basin selection should incorporate three major areas of concern: (i) alterations of winter snow-pack dynamics from climate change, (ii) basins or sub- basins where groundwater is major water source with issues and (iii) coastal areas where sea level rise will have impacts on surface and groundwater, together with increased flood risk. 2.

  • Settlement Patterns, Chiefdom Variability, and the Development of Early States in North China
    JOURNAL OF ANTHROPOLOGICAL ARCHAEOLOGY 15, 237±288 (1996) ARTICLE NO. 0010 Settlement Patterns, Chiefdom Variability, and the Development of Early States in North China LI LIU School of Archaeology, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia Received June 12, 1995; revision received May 17, 1996; accepted May 26, 1996 In the third millennium B.C., the Longshan culture in the Central Plains of northern China was the crucial matrix in which the ®rst states evolved from the basis of earlier Neolithic societies. By adopting the theoretical concept of the chiefdom and by employing the methods of settlement archaeology, especially regional settlement hierarchy and rank-size analysis, this paper introduces a new approach to research on the Longshan culture and to inquiring about the development of the early states in China. Three models of regional settlement pattern correlating to different types of chiefdom systems are identi®ed. These are: (1) the centripetal regional system in circumscribed regions representing the most complex chiefdom organizations, (2) the centrifugal regional system in semi-circumscribed regions indicating less integrated chiefdom organization, and (3) the decentral- ized regional system in noncircumscribed regions implying competing and the least complex chief- dom organizations. Both external and internal factors, including geographical condition, climatic ¯uctuation, Yellow River's changing course, population movement, and intergroup con¯ict, played important roles in the development of complex societies in the Longshan culture. As in many cultures in other parts of the world, the early states in China emerged from a system of competing chiefdoms, which was characterized by intensive intergroup con¯ict and frequent shifting of political centers.

    2016 2nd International Conference on Education Science and Human Development (ESHD 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-405-9 Hetu and Luoshu: Retrospect and Prospection Fa-Xiang ZHANG 1, Yu LV 2, Yan-Zhe SUN 3 1,2,3 University of Science & Technology of Henan, Luoyang, Henan Province, China, zhfxfelix@163.com, yvonnelvyu@126.com, suzannezhe@163.com Keywords: Hetu and Luoshu, Retrospect, Prospection. Abstract. Hetu and Luoshu, the cultural heritages that reflect ancient Chinese wisdom, are the origins of Heluo culture. The paper will focus on the present study of Hetu and Luoshu and give a prospection of the study trend by combing and analyzing related texts and documentaries. Hetu and Luoshu, or the Yellow River trigrams and the Luo River trigrams, also the first mystical images in Chinese graphemic culture, are regarded as the origin of Heluo culture and feature prominently in the history of Chinese culture and Chinese thoughts. The Legend of Hetu and Luoshu, which was included in the fourth group of National Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2014, is the fountainhead of Chinese nation and witness the long history of Chinese civilization. A Retrospect of the Study of Hetu and Luoshu in China Hetu and Luoshu are the origins of Heluo culture, Chinese yin and yang and five elements and reflect ancient Chinese wisdom. Honored as the Rubik’s Cube of the universe, Hetu and Luoshu are also recorded in Chinese Classics such as Shang Shu, The Zhou Book of Change, The Book of Rites and The Analects. However, as a study subject, the loss of the text of Hetu and Luoshu results in the present situation that all commentaries and studies are the furthermost of the original text and bear significant interpretations.

  • Hydropower Generation, Flood Control and Cascade Effect: a National
    Hydropower generation, flood control and cascade effect: A national assessment for Vietnam Tien-Viet Nguyen PhD Candidate Department of Economics, University of Birmingham, UK (vtn412@student.bham.ac.uk) Prepared for The tenth Vietnam Economist Annual Meeting 2017 Abstract In this paper, we apply the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) discharge sim- ulation coupled with econometric methods to model the performance of hydropower plants on a national scale in Vietnam - a hydro-dependent country with a diversity of terrain and climate conditions. A watershed is formed from three large inter-boundary basins: Red River, Vietnam Coast and Lower Mekong River with a total area of 977,964 km2. These are then divided into 7,887 subbasins with a mean area of 131.6km2 (based on level 12 of HydroSHEDS/HydroBASINS datasets) and 53,024 HRUs. River flow is simulated for the 40 largest hydropower plants across Vietnam from 1995 to mid-2014, coinciding with the period when both power supply and power demand rose quickly and hydropower played a prominent role in the national power source. Simulated flow appears to be a good proxy for the inflow into hydropower dams and our baseline model is able to capture 87.7% of the variation in monthly generation. In the subsequent ex- tensions of our models, we find evidence of the flood control benefit and an existence of a cascade effect for electric dams with large reservoirs providing potential resilience to the national power supply when there are adverse impacts from climate change. How- ever the harmony among dams are found to be not uniform across basin.
