Prospect of economic geography and human geography in China in the 1990s : a report of a symposium
The participants of the congress (held at Shanghai in 1990 by Geography Committees and the Geographical Society of China) recognized that human geography has developed rapidly in China during the 1980s and that it has changed from a position
Late Pleistocene chronology of loess deposition near Luochuan, China in XIII INQUA Congress issue.
Loess near Luochan was sampled for thermoluminescence (TL) dating simultaneously with magnetic susceptibility measurements to provide the first independent age estimates on a susceptibility record from the Loess Plateau of China.
A preliminary study of food problem in China and its countermeasures
China is and also will be confronted with serious difficulties in feeding its population because of scarce agricultural land resources and the rapidly growing food consumption needs. To cope with this situation, it is necessary to increase food
The demographic responses to famine : the case of China 1958-61
Over the four years 1958-61, China suffered some 25-30 million more deaths and experienced some 30-35 million fewer births than might have been expected under normal conditions.
in different regions of China, it is found that forming factors, process and types of China's mires have their own features. Researches on models, databases, information systems, mire mapping and some experimental researches on integrated exploitation
Late Pleistocene loess and climatic changes in the central Loess Plateau of China
A detailed stratigraphic division is made in the late Pleistocene loess formation of the central Loess Plateau of China by the study of newly found Q3 loess sections. Three climatic cycles are established in the area. They are represented by three
Magnetic susceptibility evidence of monsoon variation on the loess plateau of central China during the last 130,000 years in XIII INQUA Congress issue.
Because of China's strict control of permanent migration to large cities, temporary migration has become an important strategy for adjusting to economic changes and to effecting family reunification. The survey of 1984 focused on a segment
After summarizing the results of Quaternary climatic fluctuations in China, AA. describe the significance of the Lanzhou loess and paleosol sequence in Quaternary studies. Five stratigraphic units are identified with at least 21 intercalated
