Effect of Reclamation on the Vertical Distribution of SOC in Three Types of Wetland Soils
Authors: Huo Li Li , Lv Xian Guo , Lin Da Song
Published: June 2014

To investigate how reclamation of wetlands in three different soil types impacts the vertical distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) content in soil profiles, contents and density of soil organic carbon (SOC) in soil profiles of three types of wetland soils in wetland, soybean and paddy field in Sanjiang Plain were determined. Both soybean and paddy field were reclaimed from wetland. We observed that reclamation significantly reduced SOC content in 0-10,10-20 and 20-30 cm soil layers in meadow albic soil and meadow marsh soil, and 0-10,10-20,20-30 and 30-40 cm soil layers in peat bog soil, there were no significant difference in SOC contents in soil layers under 0-30 or 0-40 cm before and after reclamation. After reclamation, SOC density in three types of wetland soils decreased, and SOC density in soybean field were higher than that in paddy field. Either in wetlands or farm lands in the three types of wetland soils, most of the SOC storage in 0-100 cm soil layer was stored in 0-50 cm soil layer. Though wetland reclamation reduced the SOC content, it hasn’t changed the regularity of SOC vertical distribution. The relationships between SOC content and soil depth in wetlands and farm lands all could be described by exponential functions in three types of soils. The specific functions are useful to estimate and predict the regional SOC pool by models.

Authors: Zhang Jian , Guo Yan You , Wang Cheng Shan
Published: June 2014

The linkage of the South Asian High (SAH) to the southern annular mode (SAM) during the boreal summer is addressed. The results show that the SAH correlated well with the Southern Hemispheric subtropical high (SSH) and SAM, which exhibits that their recent positive trends are associated with each other. During the positive SAH anomalies years, roughly speaking, the sea level pressure (SLP) and the zonal surface wind (u10) are analogous to that of the positive SAM phase, but they also show an anomalous zonal-wave-3-like (ZW3-like) pattern over the mid latitudes. The surface temperature (ST) variations are not similar to the SAM. Nevertheless, these changes are related with the anomalous cyclones and meridional surface wind (v10). The relationship between the SAH and SAM is also a manifestation of the interhemispheric interaction, and this study contributes to the understanding of the global change.
Driving Factors for Carbon Dioxide Emission Changes from Electricity Generation in Eastern China
Authors: Hou Jian Chao , Guo Juan
Published: June 2014

This paper analyzes the potential factors influencing the changes of CO2 emissions of the power generation for four provinces and one city in Eastern China during the period of 1995-2012 applying the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) method. The changes of CO2 emissions in power generation are decomposed into three factors: electricity production effect, electricity generation structural effect and energy generation intensity effect. The empirical results show production effect is the major factor responsible for rise in power generation CO2 emissions during the period 1995-2012. With the exception of Fujian province the energy generation intensity effect is mainly responsible for the decrease in CO2 emissions over the period 1995–2012.The contribution of generation structure effect to CO2 emissions changes is different across the regions in Eastern China and it had little effect on CO2 emissions changes. The empirical results also show that there is a potential of efficiency improvement of fired power plants and optimization of the power generation structure.

Authors: Shen Zi Jian , Liu Yu , Song Yong Chen
Published: June 2014

CO2/water displacement process in porous media under conditions of CO2 geological storage was observed by using X-ray CT. The porous media was a packed bed filled with glass beads. The size of the glass beads in the packed bed is 0.2mm in diameter and the flow rates were adjusted by the fractional CO2 flow rates from 1.2 to 3.6 ml/min. The porosity and CO2 saturation were measured during the packed bed flooding experiments under conditions of two-phase of CO2 and brine (P ~ 8.0 MPa and T = 40°C). The observation results show that the CO2 displacement efficiency is strongly affected by the heterogeneity of the packed bed. However, it is the buoyancy that plays a key role on governing the CO2 saturation distribution, which was observed from the experiments under variant of fractional flow rates. The results obtained from this study, especially the CO2 saturation distribution, provided informations on further investigating the mechanism of the movement and immobilization of CO2 plumes for CO2 geological storage.

Authors: Zou Qing , Chen Xun , Lv Jun Na
Published: June 2014

For discussing the shape, turning point and influencing factors of Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) for Chinese CO2 emissions, by using data for 1960-2009, the dynamic relationship between income, other affecting factors and CO2 emissions was studied utilizing the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag - Error Correction Model (ARDL-ECM) and boundary test methodology. The results suggest the existence of cointegration relationship among variables and presence of an inverted-U shape relationship in both short and long-run, thus supporting the EKC hypothesis. At present China has not surpassed the curve’s turning point. Energy intensity is key influencing factor for CO2 emissions. Industry structure is positively correlated with CO2 emissions. However, trade openness has little influence on it. The short-run environmental negative effect of urbanization and long-run positive effect of population density are both significant, the regression coefficient of energy consumption structure is positive in long-run but negative in short-run.

Authors: Zhao Jie , Wang Can , Ye Min Hua
Published: June 2014

Ultra-high voltage (UHV) inter-regional power transmissions not only can upgrade the optimal allocation ability of electricity energy in a wider range, but also can link the renewable energy power plant center and electricity load center. We use a bottom-up optimization model based on six regional power grids to simulate the impact of inter-regional transmission on energy structure in china’s power sector. The result shows that it maybe not has the positive effect as we had expected, the main consequence of the inter-regional power transmission is the thermal power generation migration among different regions, which has no significant effect on promoting renewable energy in the absence of other incentive policies. As a new form of inter-regional energy deployment, UHV inter-regional power transmission will change our future regional energy use, as well as air emissions, greenhouse gas emissions and other development path, so we also put SO2, NOx and CO2 emission control into consideration.

On the basis of the results, the level of coal-fired power plants energy conservation and emission reduction was divided into five levels: excellent, good, medium, pass and fail. Taking a coal-power plant in Heilongjiang Province as an example, we drew a conclusion that the score of energy conservation and emission reduction in the coal-power plant was 89.52 which represents the good level. According to the evaluation result, we proposed corresponding suggestions. The results provide decision-makers with ideas and methods for energy conservation and emission reduction evaluation in the coal-fired power plant.
Short-Term Power Load Forecast in Electric Companies
Authors: Liu Chang
Published: June 2014

This paper studies the problem of load forecast in electric companies. We combine the analysis of load cause and gray prediction model together, and enhance the accuracy of prediction, thus improving the economic benefit of electric companies and saving energy resources. Firstly, considering the cause of load, we separate load into three components: basic load component, weather-sensitive load component, and load component because of special events. Then, we take economic development and actual temperature into account to calculate load in each category. And then, we use gray prediction model to make a further prediction. The results show that gray prediction is only accurate in trend. In order to make a more accurate prediction, it should be combined with other forecasting methods. Finally, we combine cause of load with gray prediction model, and establish a combination forecasting model. The combination forecasting model explains the cause of load and the reason for error in gray model. With accurate forecast, it is easy for electric companies to manage their operation perfectly and get the most profit.

Current impediments include continued population increase, rapid urbanization, and decrease in arable lands, water pollution and climate change. China should control the population, improve irrigation techniques, fight against water pollution and invest on education to facilitate a major transition in the development mode and strive for more sustainable consumption of natural resources. These actions will ensure China’s self-sufficiency and prosperity.

The 373 deposit,as a typical carbonanceous-siliceous-pelitic rock type uranium deposit,is rich in organic matter and pyrite.Close relationships exist between organic matter and uranium mineralization in a lot of uranium deposits. But few people have studied the relationship between uranium mineralization and organic matter of carbonanceous-siliceous-pelitic rock type uranium deposit.The organic matter type of 373 uranium deposit is type-II2.The sources of organic matter are mainly marine plankton,microbial and terrestrial plant. The organic maturity is relatively low,at the immature-low mature stage.Compared with the surrounding rock ,the ore has gone through higher paletemperature on account of hydrothermal and fault. The type and the maturity of organic matter result in the generation of large amount of humic acid during thermal evolution that could be preserved in strata. The contents of chloroform bitumen “A” of organic matter in the mineralized layer are 0.47—10.42ug/g .Asphaltene is the main component of chloroform bitumen “A”.The correlation between chloroform bitumen “A” and uranium content is high,as well as the correlation between the content of asphaltene and uranium content. Study shows that the functions of organic matter in 373 uranium deposit are mainly adsorption,complexation and reduction.

Published: June 2014

There is a shortage of water resources in china. The amount of water per capita in china is only a quarter amount of the world average per capita. Meanwhile, the water pollution here is very serious. In our country, the economic cost caused by the water pollution is about 40 billion per year. The water pollution accidents have a big influence on the local economic development and the health of people. At the same time, Audit institutions, because of their unique professional advantages, can play a very important role in environmental protection. Thus, Water Environmental Audit is developing gradually acted as a sustained and effective managerial instrument to inspect and supervise the environmental economic activities.

To enhance collaboration between industrial structure and employment structure is a fundamental approach to realize optimizing regional industrial structure and employment rate. Based on Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) statistical data from 1978 to 2012, the paper, by employing industrial structure deviation degree and structure coordination coefficient, conducts an analysis on the change tendency of and correlation between XPCC industry structure and employment structure. Results show that upgrading the optimizing industry structure is the priority to promote collaboration between the two structures. Primary industry should be sped up to ensure stability, secondary industry strengthened to ensure speed, and the tertiary promoted to ensure employment. A new industry system should be set up, effective collaboration promoted among various industries.

Start from the different understanding of corporate environmental strategy by economic and social perspective. We empirically studied both the economic and social impact on corporate environmental strategy and activities. We choose the listed companies that published social, environmental or sustainable reports in 2011 as a study sample, and translate the qualitative information on the report into quantitative one through content analysis. The Spearman correlation and logistic regression was used in SPSS 20. We found that in the Chinese market economy system, government has important influence on enterprise's strategic choice, which lead to ownership plays a more important role in corporate environmental activities than corporate financial performance.
