农用地使用权征用中农民的成本收益分析

社会经济的快速发展促使大量农用地征收以满足各部门各方面的用地需求,在此过程中伴随着农用地使用权征用.长期以来,农用地使用权征用补偿偏低及补偿不到位,使农用地使用权主体农民的权益受损而得不到有效的保障.本文在区域问卷随机抽样调查的基础上,综合运用成本收益分析法、分解求和法和条件价值评估法等研究方法来分析湖北省农用地使用权征用中农民的成本收益并进行相应的测算.研究结果表明,调查区农民由于农用地使用权征用两年每公顷耕地的成本收益差额分别为:武汉市江夏区是16 652.20元/hm2,新洲区是29753.82元/hm2,麻城市是35 602.06元/hm2,平均值是26 255.77元/hm2.测算结果说明在农用地使用权征用中农民负担的成本与获得的收益存在显著的差距.     

中国自然资源政策演进历程与发展方向

自然资源政策是国家政策体系的重要组成部分,其社会关注度、复杂性、地区差异性等特征较为突出.1980年代以来,中国自然资源政策大致经历了上世纪80年代、1991-1997、1998-2003、2004 - 2010等四个阶段的演进,期间,社会经济发展形势不断发展变化,自然资源政策的需求和目标也不断变化,并为社会经济快速发展提供了政策基础;但同时也在政策一致性、政策权威性、政策公正性、政策认知性等方面,暴露出一些不足和缺憾.自2011年开始,资源政策的演进进入了第五个阶段.展望未来,为全面落实科学发展观和加快转变经济发展方式,中国自然资源政策应不断创新,重点在政府规制、全面负责、促进转型、系统协调和差异设计等方面不断优化和发展.

Water‐Yield Reduction After Afforestation and Related Processes in the Semiarid Liupan Mountains,Northwest China1

Abstract: The increase of coverage of forest/vegetation is imperative to improve the environment in dry‐land areas of China, especially for protecting soil against serious erosion and sandstorms. However, inherent severe water shortages, drought stresses, and increasing water use competition greatly restrict the reforestation. Notably, the water‐yield reduction after afforestation generates intense debate about the correct approach to afforestation and forest management in dry‐land areas. However, most studies on water‐yield reduction of forests have been at catchment scales, and there are few studies of the response of total evapotranspiration (ET) and its partitioning to vegetation structure change. This motivates us to learn the linkage between hydrological processes and vegetation structure in slope ecosystems. Therefore, an ecohydrological study was carried out by measuring the individual items of water balance on sloping plots covered by different vegetation types in the semiarid Liupan Mountains of northwest China. The ratio of precipitation consumed as ET was about 60% for grassland, 93% for shrubs, and >95% for forestland. Thus, the water yield was very low, site‐specific, and sensitive to vegetation change. Conversion of grassland to forest decreased the annual water yield from slope by 50‐100 mm. In certain periods, the plantations at lower slopes even consumed the runon from upper slopes. Reducing the density of forests and shrubs by thinning was not an efficient approach to minimize water use. Leaf area index was a better indicator than plant density to relate ET to vegetation structure and to evaluate the soil water carrying capacity for vegetation (i.e., the maximum amount of vegetation that can be supported by the available soil water for an extended time). Selecting proper vegetation types and plant species, based on site soil water condition, may be more effective than the forest density regulation to minimize water‐yield reduction by vegetation coverage increase and notably by reforestation. Finally, the focuses in future research to improve the forest‐water relations in dry‐land areas are recommended as follows: vegetation growth dynamics driven by environment especially water conditions, coupling of ecological and hydrological processes, further development of distributed ecohydrological models, quantitative relation of eco‐water quota of ecosystems with vegetation structures, multi‐scaled evaluation of soil water carrying capacity for vegetation, and the development of widely applicable decision support tools.     

Titanium dioxide mediated photocatalytic degradation of 17beta-estradiol in aqueous solution

Photocatalytic degradation of 17beta-estradiol (E2) in aqueous medium mediated with titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) was studied. Moreover, effect of TiO(2) dosage on the degradation efficiency was investigated. Particular attention was paid to the identification of intermediates and analysis of photocatalytic degradation mechanism of E2 under neutral and alkaline conditions. The degradation efficiency of E2 increased with increasing concentration of TiO(2) but decreased due to light scattering as TiO(2) concentration was greater than 0.5mgml(-1). Several intermediates were formed during photocatalytic degradation of E2. However, only a few of the compounds could be identified and confirmed by LC-MS and LC-MS/MS. Six intermediates were observed by photocatalytic oxidation under alkaline conditions, namely 2-hydroxyestradiol, 10epsilon-17beta-dihydroxy-1,4-estradien-3-one (DEO), 10epsilon-hydroperoxide-17beta-hydroxy-1,4-estradien-3-one and three kinds of dicarboxylic acids formed by the opening of aromatic ring. In addition to the six intermediates mentioned above, 17beta-hydroxy-1,4-estradien-3-one (EO) was observed under neutral conditions and in the presence of methanol. Based on these intermediates, which were hardly degraded even after E2 was fully degraded, the mechanism of E2 degradation by TiO(2) photocatalysis was elucidated.

Adsorption of Acid Red 73 on copper dithiocarbamate precipitate-type solid wastes

Three solid wastes, copper N,N'-bis(dithiocarboxy)piperazine ([CuBDP](n)), copper diethyldithiocarbamate (Cu(DDTC)(2)) and copper dimethyldithiocarbamate (Cu(DMTC)(2)), were prepared and tested as adsorbents to remove Acid Red 73 from wastewater. It was found that the three precipitates all could effectively adsorb the dye but their adsorption abilities were rather different. The maximum adsorption amounts of the coordination polymer precipitate [CuBDP](n) reached as high as 364mg g(-1), much greater than those of Cu(DDTC)(2) and Cu(DMTC)(2) (42.9 and 37.8mg g(-1), respectively). The investigation of adsorption models showed these adsorption processes followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and the adsorption balances could be described with both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, but the latter seemed to be more suitable. Their adsorption nature was inferred to be physical adsorption and mainly depended on the hydrophobic interaction between these precipitates and Acid Red 73. This is the first example for the reutilization of metal dithiocarbamate precipitates as solid wastes to date.
