Maria Khayutina • [email protected] the Tombs
Maria Khayutina [email protected] The Tombs of Peng State and Related Questions Paper for the Chicago Bronze Workshop, November 3-7, 2010 (, 1.1.) () The discovery of the Western Zhou period’s Peng State in Heng River Valley in the south of Shanxi Province represents one of the most fascinating archaeological events of the last decade. Ruled by a lineage of Kui (Gui ) surname, Peng, supposedly, was founded by descendants of a group that, to a certain degree, retained autonomy from the Huaxia cultural and political community, dominated by lineages of Zi , Ji and Jiang surnames. Considering Peng’s location right to the south of one of the major Ji states, Jin , and quite close to the eastern residence of Zhou kings, Chengzhou , its case can be very instructive with regard to the construction of the geo-political and cultural space in Early China during the Western Zhou period. Although the publication of the full excavations’ report may take years, some preliminary observations can be made already now based on simplified archaeological reports about the tombs of Peng ruler Cheng and his spouse née Ji of Bi . In the present paper, I briefly introduce the tombs inventory and the inscriptions on the bronzes, and then proceed to discuss the following questions: - How the tombs M1 and M2 at Hengbei can be dated? - What does the equipment of the Hengbei tombs suggest about the cultural roots of Peng? - What can be observed about Peng’s relations to the Gui people and to other Kui/Gui- surnamed lineages? 1. General Information The cemetery of Peng state has been discovered near Hengbei village (Hengshui town, Jiang County, Shanxi ). -

Received: 29 February 2020; Accepted: 23 March 2020; Published: 26 March 2020 Abstract: High-strength mining of super-large coalfaces in the Shendong coalfield causes significant damage to the ground surface. To study the key parameters of undermined coalfaces that affect ground damage, 25 numerical simulation models were designed using an orthogonal experimental method based on the geological and mining conditions of the Bulianta Mine. In the orthogonal design, four factors (the lengths in both the dip and strike directions, the thickness and the mining speed of the coalface) were considered, with five levels designed for each factor. The subsidence displacements and deformations caused by the excavation were then simulated and verified using field surveying data. A damage extent index (DEI) was introduced and used to assess the extent of global ground damage caused by each simulative excavation. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) method was then employed to determine the key parameters of the coalface that significantly influence the ground damage. -

Identification of nitrate sources is important for the management of rivers. In this study, stable isotopes (δ15N and δ18O) and a Bayesian model (stable isotope analysis in R, SIAR) were applied to identify nitrate sources and estimate the proportional contributions of multiple nitrate sources in the upstream of Fenhe River Reservoir that serves as a source of drinking water in Shanxi Province of North China. *e results showed that the 86.4% of total nitrogen (TN) concentrations in the water samples exceeded the guided values of the Chinese Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard (GB 3838-2002). *e influent of tributary and discharges of sewage caused the severe nitrogen pollution. SIAR was used to estimate the proportional contribution of three nitrate sources (sewage, inorganic fertilizer, and soil nitrogen). -
Discussion on Introducing External Funds for Water and Soil Conservation
12th ISCO Conference Beijing 2002 Discussion on Introducing External Funds for Water and Soil Conservation Li Wenyin and Yuan Yuegui Water and Soil Conservation Bureau, Shanxi Provincial Department of Water Resources Taiyuan, Shanxi, 030002, China Abstract: Introducing external funds for water and soil conservation has a very important role in promoting ecological environment construction in water loss and soil erosion areas. It can not only complement lack of funds for erosion control and accelerate soil conservation steps, but also accompany the introduction of advanced technologies and methods, so that the management of water and soil conservation projects will become more standardized and regulated. The adoption of the World Bank Reimbursement System should integrate local conditions, domestic planning investment management manners. And establishing a new kind of water and soil conservation specialized teams oriented to market economy is an effective organized way to carry out soil erosion control in large scale, high standard and fast speed. Keywords: water and soil conservation, World Bank loan, reimbursement system, specialized team As a basic national policy, a key to harnessing rivers and an essential component of ecological environment construction, the water and soil conservation has increasingly drawn extensive attention and supports in the whole society; in addition, as a strategic measure of global sustainable development, it has also gained much attention from the international societies. With the deepening of reform and opening up in our country, the first project of utilizing external fund from international monetary organization – Shanxi/World Bank Loess Plateau Water and Soil Conservation Project took place in 1994. After 7 years of implementation, the project has greatly promoted the water and soil conservation work in the whole province, and realized breakthrough in traditional thought, and obviously accelerated the steps of controlling over soil erosion and improving ecological environment. -

The Variety of Runoff and Sediment and the Sustainable Development in Fenhe Valley
12th ISCO Conference Beijing 2002 The Variety of Runoff and Sediment and the Sustainable Development in Fenhe Valley Dong Xuena1, Meng Xianying2, Li li2 and Jin Shuangyan1 1 Hydrology Bureau, YRCC, Zhengzhou, 450004, China 2 Institute of Hydraulic Research, YRCC, Zhengzhou, 450004, China E-mail:[email protected] Abstract: Fenhe valley located in the region of soil erosion in the middle Yellow River, water resources is always very short. Especially in recent decades, plentiful human activities affected the change of runoff. The negative function brought by the change to Fenhe valley is unexpected. In order to survive and develop, the people destroyed forest and reclaimed wasteland excessively, which made ecological environment breach. Water and soil losses, waterlog, drought disaster, pollution of water quality and soil salinification etc. restricted the development in Fenhe valley. In recent decades, the days that the observed discharge of Hejin hydrology station in Fenhe less than 1m3/s is up to more than 100 days. It became almost intermittent river due to long time near break-off. Under the condition of same rainfall, runoff decreased largely and concentration of water quality pollution increased. It is very disadvantage to the Yellow River that runoff decreased in Fenhe valley. Owing to excessive population, high degree of water resources exploitation and utilization, and finite local water resources, we must strengthen the management of utilization of exist local water resources, heighten the ratio of water usage, save water usage, and protect water-soil resources for the great development of socio-economic in Fenhe valley. Keywords: runoff, sediment, water resources, Fenhe 1 Social condition Fenhe valley, from Ningwu County to Hejin County in Shanxi province, goes through 33 Counties in Xinzhou, Taiyuan, Lvliang, Jinzhong, Linfen and Yuncheng District. -
