The characteristic style of rural houses is an important manifestation of the historical and cultural values of rural areas and is the key focus of the implementation of the strategy for the construction of beautiful China and the revitalization of rural areas. Taking 17 villages in the Rongcheng of Shandong as an example, this article integrated multidimensional data, including geospatial data, survey data and socio-economic data, and constructed a suitable index system to evaluate the characteristic style of coastal rural houses in 2018 and put forward the characteristic style regionalization of coastal rural houses. The results show that the characteristic style of coastal rural houses can be measured by the overall village environment, coastal architectural value and traditional folk culture, among which the coastal architectural value is the most critical. Two villages scored over 60 points in the comprehensive evaluation, namely the Dongchu Island village and Dazhuang Xujia Community. Different dominant characteristic styles of rural houses were identified according to single-factor evaluation. Based on the evaluation results and factors such as location, nature, social economy and the status quo of protection and development management, characteristic styles of rural houses in the research area can be divided into four continuous areas: historical and cultural characteristics, folk customs and industrial development characteristics, natural scenery characteristics and folk customs characteristics. Combined with regional positioning and development planning, the construction direction of different regional types was defined, and then the protection and improvement measures of rural residential features were put forward. This study not only provides a certain basis for the evaluation, construction and protection of the characteristic features of coastal rural dwellings in Rongcheng City but also provides guidance for the implementation of rural construction planning.
With the rapid development of social economy and urban−rural integration, the phenomenon of farmland abandonment worldwide has proved to be one of the main trends of land use and land cover change (LUCC), and profoundly affected the rural landscape and regional ecological environment. Restricted by the natural environment, economic development and backward agricultural technology, the phenomenon of farmland abandonment is also common in the Qingzang Plateau (QP). Therefore, this paper adopted the spatial autocorrelation method to analyze the spatial pattern of abandonment in the agricultural and pastoral areas of the Qingzang Plateau (APA−QP) in 2017, and the geographically weighted regression (GWR) model to explore the effects of geographical resources, socio-economic development and location conditions on farmland abandonment. This study found that: 1) From 2015 to 2017, the abandoned farmland area in the APA−QP was approximately 18.23 × 104 ha, with an overall abandonment rate of 15.18%. On the whole, it showed the distribution characteristics of "strong in the south and weak in the north, strong in the east and weak in the west". 2) There were positive spatial correlation between both abandoned area and abandonment rate in the APA−QP, showing "concave" and "convex" patterns, respectively, mainly concentrated in the Huang−shui Valley and the Southeast Tibet; while in the western and northern regions, the degree of abandonment was relatively low. 3) Farmland abandonment in the APA−QP was mainly driven by the geographical environment changes and farmers' decision−making on farmland utilization. There was significant spatial heterogeneity on farmland abandonment associated with the impact of geographical resources, socio−economics and location conditions. The geographical resource factors had a positive impact on the abandonment, and were strongly constrained by natural geographic conditions such as altitude and slope. The farmland resources in the Qingzang Plateau are limited, but are of strategic significance for the sustainable development of agriculture in the whole Qingzang Plateau. In order to realize the rational distribution of agriculture and animal husbandry and the sustainable utilization of farmland resources in the plateau region, land use strategies should be implemented according to regional differences and regional advantages in order to ensure the ecological environment security of Qingzang Plateau.
The development of green agriculture is an effective way to realize the sustainable development of agriculture, which is of great significance for guaranteeing national food security, improving the supply ability of agricultural products, promoting the healthy development of cultivated land, and realizing green development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has proposed the establishment of a green-development-oriented agricultural support system, which intends to reverse the worsening of the agricultural ecological environment; however, in 2019, the input of agricultural chemical fertilizer still exceeded the international limit of the safe application of chemical fertilizer. In recent years, agriculture has surpassed industry to become the largest non-point source pollution industry in China, seriously affecting the rural ecological civilization construction and the advancement of green sustainable development coordinated. To analyze the key factors affecting the development of green agriculture, in this study, logistic binary regression analysis was used to measure the main factors affecting farmers’ green agricultural production willingness and green agricultural production behavior. The results show that a farmer’s age, land type, compensation for land transfer, technical service organization, related training, and economic and technological subsidies had significant effects on their green agricultural production willingness. The age of farmers, number of staff, risk of green agricultural production technology, technical service organization, and economic and technological subsidies were shown to have significant effects on the green agricultural production behavior of farmers, where the different factors influenced the behavior to different degrees. Based on the above findings, it is suggested that the Chinese government should help farmers to carry out agricultural green transformation through technical training, policy popularization, economic subsidies, and educational support.
The study on situation is to research the way of dealing with the circumstances,and focus on upgrading the realm of individual life.The Zhouyi reflects the study on situation intensively,in which the chapter Da Xiang(Lit.,Great Image) presupposes the situation in every aspect,to which there are various approaches with extraoridinary moral wisdom.This belongs to the Yi without divination,and is not practical.In western contemporary analysis method,it analyzes business strategies and personal career planning in four aspects: advantage,disadvantage,opportunity and threat.The SWOT method is highly complementary with the study on situation in the Zhouyi.This paper tries to put forward the study on situation in the Zhouyi and the method of SWOT.
Abstract Strengthened anthropogenic activities significantly modify ecosystem services (ES), while there are differences in impacts on ES from various anthropogenic activities. In the literature a specific focus on addressing the spatial heterogeneity of comprehensively measured anthropogenic activities on ES is lacking. From an integrated perspective of the "Three Modernizations", that is: 1) agricultural modernization (AM); 2) industrialization and: 3) urbanization, this article aimed to investigate the heterogeneity of anthropogenic disturbance of ES in an agricultural and pastoral area (APA) involving a pastoral area (PA) and a semi‐agricultural and semi‐pastoral area (SASPA) of the Tibetan Plateau. We found (i) There was remarkable heterogeneity in the responses of ES to the "Three Modernizations". AM was negatively correlated with ES and caused ES decline, while industrialization and urbanization were conducive to reducing the overall pressure of anthropogenic activities and improving ES. (ii) The "Three Modernizations" disturbed ES more intensely in the SASPA than in the PA, indicating industrialization more seriously damaged ecosystems and the unreasonable interactive development mode of local agriculture and animal husbandry exacerbated the threats of the "Three Modernizations" on ES in the SASPA. (iii) The regions featuring low/high degrees of the "Three Modernizations" and showing high ES were mainly distributed in the central and north‐western PA, while the clustered areas of low/high degrees of the "Three Modernizations" with low ES were narrowly distributed in the southern and eastern SASPA. These findings indicate the complex effects of the "Three Modernizations" on ES and provide guidance for better adaptive policy‐making and planning for ecological management and sustainable pathways and patterns for future management of the "Three Modernizations".
Poetry translation can be entered in the category of secondary creation and rewriting art,which bears hard nut.The translation of poetry in Tang Dynasty tends to be even more Herculean.The toughness results from the literary obscurity,the metaphoric and allusive usages,and the lack of the craftsmanship for poetic English.In order to let those poets of the Tang Dynasty such as Bai Ju-yi with their humanism and plain style better appreciated by the readers in the West-a responsibility of the Chinese scholars of the English language and literature,the translation strategy,experience and frustrations in rendering 100 Bai Ju-yi's poems into English are summarized and discussed.
