The research on the adaptive utilization of water resources (AUWR) is great significance to improve coordinated development among resources, economic society, and ecological environment in complex environments, promote regional resources. Based calculation method harmony theory comprehensive co-evolution model, this paper obtains degree capacity (AUCWR) each subsystem Tarim River Basin (TRB), a...

A paleomagnetic study of rocks from the northern foot of the Tien Shan and the southern border of the Dzungar Basin, east of Urumqi (44.2°N, 86.0°E), spanning ages from middle Jurassic to early Tertiary was carried out to constrain the tectonic evolution in central Asia since Mesozoic time. Five middle Jurassic sites reveal a remagnetized direction close to the present Earth field in geographic...

I. INTRODUCTION We humans tend to worry first about our own happiness, then about our families, then about our communities. In times of great stress, such as war or natural disaster, we may focus temporarily on our country but we rarely think about Earth as a whole or the human species as a whole. This narrow perspective, perhaps best exemplified by the American consumer, has led to the environ...

The female and male of Dasybasis (Agelanius) cortesi, new species, is described and illustrated from specimens collected in the National Reserve of Río Clarillo, Cordillera Province, Central Chile. Its relationships to other Dasybasis species are discussed.

Natural vegetation on both sides of the Tarim River Basin (TRB) is only barrier—a critical ecological niche—between economic belt in artificial oasis and Taklimakan Desert. To understand impact human activities TRB, we explored spatial temporal variations land use/land cover change (LUCC) landscape pattern evolution from 2000 to 2020. These were simulated for 2030 with 20 years data using cellu...
