  • Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects
    Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects Esra Erdem Institute of Information Systems, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Feng Wang Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Evolutionary relations between languages based on their shared characteristics can be represented as a phylogeny --- a tree where the leaves represent the extant languages, the internal vertices represent the ancestral languages, and the edges represent the genetic relations between the languages. On the other hand, languages not only inherit characteristics from their ancestors but also sometimes borrow them from other languages. Such borrowings can be represented by additional non-tree edges, turning a phylogeny into a phylogenetic network. With this motivation, we reconstruct the evolutionary history of languages in two steps: first we compute a plausible phylogeny with a minimal number of incompatible characters, and then we turn this phylogeny into a perfect phylogenetic network, by adding a small number of lateral edges, so that all characters are compatible with the network. For both steps, to formulate the problems and to solve them, we use answer set programming --- a new form of declarative programming. This method has been successfully applied to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Indo-European languages. In the following we summarize its application to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Old Chinese and the following 23 Chinese dialects: Guangzhou, Liancheng, Meixian, Taiwan, Xiamen, Zhangping, Fuzhou, Nanchang, Anyi, Shuangfeng, Changsha, Beijing, Yuci, Taiyuan, Ningxia, Chengdu, Yingshan, Wuhan, Ningbo, Suzhou, Shangai 1, Shangai 2, Wenzhou. We have started with a dataset consisting of 200 lexical characters (the Swadesh wordlist), each with 1--24 states.

Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Mongolia Beijing North Korea China South Korea Project site Xian Nepal Ankang Bhutan India Taiwan Myanmar Vietnam Laos Project site location map (Xian-Ankang, Shannxi Province) Qingcha Tunnel 1.1 Background The project site (Xian- Ankang) is located in the southern part of Shaanxi Province where the 3000-meter high Qinling Mountains extend over 1500 kilometers, and was therefore undeveloped due to difficulties in transportation and remoteness from cities. Southwest of the project site is Sichuan Province, the largest province with a population of 110 million accounting for 10% of the population of China. However, as there is no other transport route to Sichuan Province than taking a detour around the Qinling Mountains, there were only limited routes to transport energy and everyday commodities from the north. Railway transport from other regions to Sichuan Province depended on Baoching Line (Baoji-Chengdu) from the north and Xiangyu Line (Xiangfan-Ankang-Chongquing) from the east, and both lines were operating to full capacity. It was particularly difficult to double-track Baoching Line, which takes a detour to avoid the Qinling Mountains because of 1) long distance of transport, 2) large cost to transport on a gradient at an angel of 3%, and 3) the topographical problem. The opening of the electrified single track of Xian-Ankang Line not only helped increase the transport capacity within Shaanxi Province but also shortened the traveling distance to Chongquing and eased the transportation load on Baoching Line.

Unlike banks in the Republic of Korea entire region, but China’s economy appeared relatively unaffected and Thailand, Chinese banks have a much smaller exposure to because the exchange rate was firm and there was no sign of foreign debt. Therefore, banks in China will not be as easily hit by instability. The main reason for the firm exchange rate was that the an external payment imbalance.

The results showed that the mean change curves of Q3 in the seven cities in the Pearl River Delta region from 2016 to 2020 were M-shaped, and the change trend was basically the same, except Huizhou and Zhuhai. The over standard rate of daily mean value of Q3 in Jiangmen City from 2016 to 2020 was more than 10%, and the over standard situation of daily mean value of Q3 was serious. In the Pearl River Delta region, the change trend of the monthly mean value of Q3 in the same year was basically the same. On the whole, the mean value from August to November was higher, and the mean value in June was lower. The peak of Q3 concentration appeared between 12:00 and 16:00 in the daytime, and it was generally low at night. 1 Preface studies on the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of Q3 in the Pearl River Delta in recent Ozone (Q3) is an important component of the atmosphere, years.

Luk 1 Environment Research Institute, Shandong University, Ji’nan, Shandong, China 2 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China 3 Environmental Protection Department, the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Hong Kong, China ABSTRACT Peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) is a trace constituent of the atmosphere but plays important roles in air pollution and atmospheric chemistry. To understand the chemical and transport processes of PAN in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region, measurements of PAN, its precursors and related parameters were made at a regional background site in late summer and late autumn of 2011. Despite the fairly low ambient levels of PAN in general, several photochemical episodes with peak concentrations of PAN and ozone (O3) as high as 4.86 and 189 ppbv were observed when the region was under influence of a tropical cyclone. PAN showed a seasonal variation with higher levels in autumn than in summer. PAN production efficiency, defined as the amount of PAN formed per unit amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) oxidized, was examined for the polluted PRD plumes, which indicated that PAN production accounted for on average approximately one third of the NOz formation.
