自然和自然贡献情景模型研究综述

本文回顾了自然和自然贡献情景模型发展的背景、历史和内容,概括总结了自然和自然贡献情景模型的发展进程以及联合国生物多样性与生态系统服务政府间科学—政策平台(IPBES)情景模型的概念框架,讨论了自然和自然贡献情景模型存在的问题和发展方向。为了在全球层面解决现有综合集成模型存在的问题,根据地球表层建模基本定理和生态环境曲面建模基本定理,提出了具有中国原创特点的自然与自然贡献情景模型概念框架。     

对推进城镇化健康发展问题的思考

城镇化是一个国家和地区经济社会发展的重要标志，也是人类社会走向文明和进步不可逾越的阶段，所谓城镇化（也称城市化、非农化），是指人类生产和生活方式由乡村型向城市型转化的历史进程，表现为乡村人口向城市人口转化以及城市不断发展和完善的过程。城镇化是我国现代化进程中必经的历史阶段。“十五”以来，我国城镇化取得了重要进展，但在加快城镇化发展中也出现了一些偏差。《中共中央关于制定国民经济和社会发展第十一个五年规划的建议》提出，要“坚持大中小城市和小城镇协调发展，提高城镇综合承载能力，按照循序渐进、节约土地、集约发展、合理布局的原则，稳步推进城镇化”。     

Revisiting Sustainable Development of Dry Valleys in Hengduan Mountains Region

Dry valleys are a striking geographic landscape in Hengduan Mountains Region and are characterized by low rainfall, desert type of vegetation and fragile environment. Past efforts and resources have been concentrated mainly on rehabilitation of degraded ecosystem and fragile environment, particularly reforestation, while socio-economic development has been largely overlooked. Despite successes in pocket areas, the overall trend of unsustainability and environmental deterioration are continuing. It is important to understand that uplift of the Tibetan Plateau is the root cause of development of dry valleys, and development and formation of dry valleys is a natural process. Human intervention has played a secondary role in development of dry valleys and degradation of dry valleys though human intervention in many cases has speeded up environmental degradation of the dry valleys. It is important to understand that dry valleys are climatic enclaves and an integrated approach that combines rehabilitation of degraded ecosystems and socio-economic development should be adopted if the overall goal of sustainable development of dry valleys is to be achieved. Promotion of niche-based cash crops, rural energy including hydropower, solar energy, biogas and fuelwood plantation is recommended as the priority activities.     

玛多黄河源区生态环境治理:任重道远

黄河,发源于青藏高原巴颜喀拉山北麓。玛多县境是黄河源区的主要片区,这里因处于三江源区青藏高原腹地及其特殊的地理位置和高寒多风干旱的气候,生态环境十分脆弱。近20年来,由于大气环境的逐渐变暖和人类活动的加剧如草原开发和过牧等因素,玛多县境内黄河河段、湖泊、湿地及草     

APPLICATION OF ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS TO ASSESSING THE ECOLOGICAL VULNERABILITY OF WETLANDS IN THE JIANGHAN PLAIN

Wetlands in the Jianghan Plain are important components of wetland types in lake area in the middle and lower reaches the Changjiang (Yangtze) River and they fulfill many uses and functions related to hydrology,waste assimilation, ecosystem productivity and biodiversity. Owing to natural factors and human activities, especially excessive reclamation from lakes, the shrinking process of the lakes has been accelerated. Wetland ecosystem has shown the characteristics of vulnerability. According to the analysis of wetland ecological function in the Jianghan Plain, this paper presented an index system related to productivity, stability and environmental capacity. By using the method of Analytic Hierarchy Process, we computed the values of the relative weights of the indexes, and evaluated the vulnerability level of the wetland ecosystem by the method of multi-indexes. The case study showed that the fragile extent of wetland ecosystem in the Jianghan Plain is 5.6. This means that the wetland ecosystem in the Jiang-han Plain is laid to the state of middle vulnerability. Therefore, the wetland conservation and eco-rehabilitation in the JiangJaan Plain should be paid attention to.     

一定要把人类的牧地变成鲸类的墓地？

谁操纵了鲸类的命运 鲸（Whale），地球上现存最大型的动物，也是最大型的哺乳动物，曾经广泛分布在世界各大洋的海洋霸主，但它们在用现代科技武装起来的人类面前，再也强大不起来了。如今，徘徊在灭绝边缘的鲸类除了面临海洋污染、船舶撞击、噪声污染、渔业误捕和渔网缠绕等因素造成的危险外，更主要的威胁来自于捕鲸船的围猎。     

太平洋命名的历史

在一个风帆远航为海上最快速交通工具的时代里,大陆和海洋向着不可知的远方延伸着,人类显然无法测定各大海域的界限。在一些有关混沌初开的神话传说里,人类深感大海的浩渺辽阔,以人类自身的渺小,如何给这片无边无际的永恒大海命名呢?     

确立生态价值观 构筑和谐可持续发展社会

世界各国的发展都必须面对的是这样一个共同性的基本问题，即人类社会对物质产品数量、性能、品种追求的无限性与自然环境、物质生产及供给能力的有限性之间的矛盾。人类自出现以来就开始努力从自然界中谋求生存并争取更好的生存（发展的本质就在于此），这种努力永不停歇。尽管人类社会追求物质产品的无限性和自然环境供给能力的有限性是客观存在的，但人类认识到他们的存在，特别是认识到这二者之间矛盾的严重性和普遍性，却有一个相当漫长的过程。     

太阳黑子相对数与人类疾病关系的初步分析

从日地关系的角度出发,探讨太阳活动对人类疾病有何影响。本文根据南京市传染病医院的资料,对每种疾病人数的相对比率与太阳黑子相对数对应作图比较,并求出其相关系数。我们的初步结果表明:伤寒和猩红热的发病率与太阳活动11年周期变化一致,它们在同年达到极大值,其它的不明确。
