Accelerating urbanization has been viewed as an important instrument for economic development and reducing regional income disparity in some developing countries, including China. Recent studies (Bloom et al. 2008) indicate that demographic level no causal effect on growth. However, due to the varying changing definition of urban population, use indicators a sole representing indicator might be misleading. Here, we re-examine relationship between growth Chinese cities provinces recent...
This article briefly reviews the causes and impacts of massive eastern Japan earthquake tsunami 11 March 2011, comments on response measures taken by to cope with this devastating disaster. Mass losses occurred mostly because intensity quake induced exceeded local coping capacity. Particularly, nuclear power plant crisis triggered significantly increased short- long-term While capacity Japanese society built after 1995 Hanshin-Awaji great tremendously mitigated damages, there is room for...
Remote sensing images are useful for monitoring the spatial distribution and growth of urban built-up areas because they can provide timely synoptic views land cover. Although normalized difference index (NDBI) is to map areas, it still has some limitations. This study sought improve NDBI by using a semiautomatic segmentation approach. The proposed approach had more than 20% higher overall accuracy original method when both were implemented simultaneously at National Olympic Park (NOP),...
Social vulnerability emphasizes the different burdens of disaster losses within and between places. Although China continuously experiences devastating natural disasters, there is a paucity research specifically addressing multidimensional nature social vulnerability. This article presents an initial study on Yangtze River Delta region in China. The goal to replicate test applicability place-based Vulnerability Index (SoVI®) developed for United States Chinese cultural context. Twenty-nine...

As a discipline, the science of natural hazards and disaster risk aims to explain spatial-temporal pattern, process mechanism, emergency response mitigation hazards, which requires multidisciplinary interdisciplinary approach. With support Natural Science Finance China (NSFC) Chinese Academy Sciences (CAS), in-depth research systematic analysis on were conducted. In this paper, state art in is summarized from seven aspects: formation process, mechanism dynamic assessment, forecast,...
Abstract The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.9 calls for a substantial reduction in deaths attributable to PM 2.5 pollution (DAPP). However, DAPP projections vary greatly and the likelihood of meeting SDG3.9 depends on complex interactions among environmental, socio-economic, healthcare parameters. We project potential future trends global considering joint effects each driver (PM concentration, death rate diseases, population size, age structure) assess achieving under...

Empirical soil erosion models continue to play an important role in conservation planning and environmental evaluations around the world. The effect of hillslope length on loss, often termed slope factor , is one main most variable components any empirical model. In widely used model, Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), normalized L expressed as a power function length, λ, which exponent, m 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 for different, increasing gradients. Revised (RUSLE), defined continuous gradient...
Change-vector analysis (CVA) is a valuable technique for landuse/land-cover change detection. However, how to reasonably determine thresholds of magnitude and direction bottleneck its proper application. In this paper, new method proposed improve CVA. The (the improved CVA) consists two stages, Double-Window Flexible Pace Search (DFPS), which aims at determining the threshold magnitude, cosines vectors (category) that combines single-date image classification with minimum-distance...
Temperature sensitivity of soil respiration (Q 10 ) is an important parameter in modeling effects global warming on ecosystem carbon release. Experimental studies have ubiquitously indicated that Q has high spatial heterogeneity. However, most biogeochemical models still use a globally constant projecting future climate change, partly because no pattern values been derived. In this study, we conducted inverse analysis to retrieve spatially heterogeneous by assimilating data organic into...
In this article, Landsat TM images acquired during the same season from both 1984 and 1997 were analysed for urban built-up land change detection in Beijing, China, where great changes have taken place recent decades. To reduce spectral confusion between 'built-up' rural 'non built-up' cover categories, we propose a new structural method based on road density combined with bands detection. The represents one type of information while multiple represent information. Road maps dates produced...
