Strategies of Successful Anti-Dam Movements: Evidence from Myanmar and Thailand

Scholars are rarely able to examine anti-dam movements that result in project suspensions or cancellations since these cases are rare empirically. Yet, they are central to understanding how anti-dam movements can succeed. This paper analyzes the movements against Myanmar’s Myitsone Dam and Thailand’s Kaeng Suea Ten Dam. Likely the most successful anti-dam movements in Southeast Asia in recent years, they achieved suspension over 6 and 37 years, respectively. The research is based on 60 semistructured interviews carried out over a period of 8 months. Leveraging thinking from both the constructionist and structural schools within the field of social movement studies, it is found that the framing of the Myitsone Dam as a project threatening the national cultural heritage of Myanmar (in combination with political change in the country in 2010/2011) largely explains the movement’s success. Meanwhile, the set of sophisticated tactics (including inter alia demonstrations, Thai Baan research, 24/7 monitoring of the dam site, and spiritual activities) was decisive for the efficacy of the movement against Thailand’s Kaeng Suea Ten Dam.     

基于闪电先导随机模式对不同连接形态的模拟

考虑到下行负极性地闪过程中大多上行正先导发展时不分叉的观测事实,基于已有的闪电先导二维随机模式,改变上行正先导的模拟方案,使其发展时不产生分叉,并对雷击高建筑物过程中下行先导与上行连接先导 (upward connecting leader,UCL) 之间头部-头部连接和头部-侧面连接 (侧击) 的两种形态进行模拟。以高度为440 m的建筑物为例,通过改变下行先导始发点 (高度为1000 m) 与高建筑物的水平距离,模拟高建筑物上雷击过程中先导之间的连接过程,结果表明:当下行先导始发点与高建筑物的水平距离从0增加到700 m时,UCL的长度呈持续增大趋势,UCL受侧击的概率总体上呈先增大后减小的趋势 (在距离为500 m时达到最大值58%),侧击时UCL连接点以上的部分占整个UCL长度的比例总体呈持续增大趋势 (13%~49%)。     

The state of legislation and policy protecting Australia's mangrove and salt marsh and their ecosystem services

Saline coastal wetlands, such as mangrove and coastal salt marsh, provide many ecosystem services. In Australia, large areas have been lost since European colonization, particularly as a result of drainage, infilling and flood-mitigation works, often starting in the mid-19th century and aimed primarily towards converting land to agricultural, urban or industrial uses. These threats remain ongoing, and will be exacerbated by rapid population growth and climate change in the 21st century. Establishing the effect of wetland loss on the delivery of ecosystem services is confounded by the absence of a nationally consistent approach to mapping wetlands and defining the boundaries of different types of coastal wetland. In addition, climate change and its projected effect on mangrove and salt marsh distribution and ecosystem services is poorly, if at all, acknowledged in existing legislation and policy. Intensifying climate change means that there is little time to be complacent; indeed, there is an urgent need for proper valuation of ecosystem services and explicit recognition of ecosystem services within policy and legislation. Seven actions are identified that could improve protection of coastal wetlands and the ecosystem services they provide, including benchmarking and improving coastal wetland extent and health, reducing complexity and inconsistency in governance arrangements, and facilitating wetland adaptation and ecosystem service delivery using a range of relevant mechanisms. Actions that build upon the momentum to mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon – ‘blue carbon’ – could achieve multiple desirable objectives, including climate-change mitigation and adaptation, floodplain rehabilitation and habitat protection.     

Waves of 3D Marine Structures Slamming at Different Initial Poses in Complex Wind-Wave-Flow Environments

Aimed at the hydrodynamic response for marine structures slamming into water, based on the mechanism analysis to the slamming process, and by combining 3D N?S equation and turbulent kinetic equation with structure fully 6DOF motion equation, a mathematical model for the wind-fluid-solid interaction is established in 3D marine structure slamming wave at free poses and wind-wave-flow complex environments. Compared with the results of physical model test, the numerical results from the slamming wave well correspond with the experimental results. Through the mathematical model, the wave-making issue of 3D marine structure at initial pose falls into water in different complex wind, wave and flow environments is investigated. The research results show that various kinds of natural factors and structure initial poses have different influence on the slamming wave, and there is an obvious rule in this process.     

Contrasting magmatic structures between small plutons and batholiths emplaced at shallow crustal level (Sierras de Córdoba,Argentina)

Processes like injection, magma flow and differentiation and influence of the regional strain field are here described and contrasted to shed light on their role in the formation of small plutons and large batholiths their magmatic structures. The final geometric and compositional arrangement of magma bodies are a complex record of their construction and internal flow history. Magma injection, flow and differentiation, as well as regional stresses, all control the internal nature of magma bodies. Large magma bodies emplaced at shallow crustal levels result from the intrusion of multiple magma batches that interact in a variety of ways, depending on internal and external dynamics, and where the early magmatic, growth-related structures are commonly overprinted by subsequent history. In contrast, small plutons emplaced in the brittle-ductile transition more likely preserve growth-related structures, having a relatively simple cooling history and limited internal magma flow. Outcrop-scale magmatic structures in both cases record a rich set of complementary information that can help elucidate their evolution. Large and small granitic bodies of the Sierra Pampeanas preserve excellent exposures of magmatic structures that formed as magmas stepped through different rheological states during pluton growth and solidification. These structures reveal not only the flow pattern inside magma chambers, but also the rheological evolution of magmas in response to temperature evolution.     

西天山乌拉根大规模铅锌成矿中H_2S成因:菌生结构和硫同位素组成约束

乌拉根铅锌矿是中国西北地区目前探明金属量最大的铅锌矿床,但大规模成矿所需H2S的成因方式尚不清楚。在野外调查和矿相学观察基础上,论文通过场发射扫描电镜(FESEM)、能谱(EDS)和质谱(MS)观测分析表明,矿石中发育闪锌矿纳米莓球、丝/管状结构,它们由他形闪锌矿微晶集合而成,莓球直径30~700nm,丝/管状结构与莓球密切共生;常见与闪锌矿等矿石矿物共生的方解石纳米莓球结构,由他形方解石微晶集合而成,莓球直径20~800nm;也常见与矿石矿物共生的菱铁矿微米莓球、丝/管状结构,它们由他形菱铁矿微晶集合而成,莓球直径1~3μm,表面毛糙,丝/管状结构常出现在莓球周围并连接着莓球。这些纳/微米莓球在矿石中成群落不均匀分布,属细菌微生物成因,丝/管状结构为胞外聚合物的表现。矿石δ34SCDT变化大且显著偏负值(-27.9‰~15.0‰)。乌拉根大规模铅锌硫化物成矿所需H2S可能主要通过细菌硫酸盐还原(BSR)产生,盆地流体中烃类有机质催化下的细菌微生物硫酸盐还原反应是乌拉根铅锌大规模成矿的重要过程。

Impacts of climate change and hydraulic structures on runoff and sediment discharge in the middle Yellow River

Due to climate change and its aggravation by human activities (e.g. hydraulic structures) over the past several decades, the hydrological conditions in the middle Yellow River have markedly changed, leading to a sharp decrease in runoff and sediment discharge. This paper focused on the impacts of climate change and hydraulic structures on runoff and sediment discharge, and the study area was located in the 3246 km² Huangfuchuan (HFC) River basin. Changes in annual runoff and sediment discharge were initially analysed by using the Mann–Kendall trend test and Pettitt change point test methods. Subsequently, periods of natural and disturbed states were defined. The results showed that both the annual runoff and sediment discharge presented statistically significant decreasing trends. However, compared with the less remarkable decline in annual rainfall, it was inferred that hydraulic structures might be another important cause for the sharp decrease in runoff and sediment discharge in this region. Consequently, sediment‐trapping dams (STDs, a type of large‐sized check dam used to prevent sediment from entering the Yellow River main stem) were considered in this study. Through evaluating the impacts of the variation in rainfall patterns (i.e. amount and intensity) and the STD construction, a positive correlation between rainfall intensity and current STD construction was found. This paper revealed that future soil and water conservation measures should focus on areas with higher average annual rainfall and more rainstorm hours. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
