“结构—特征”二维视角下的府际环境合作网络研究——基于长三角城市群的经验数据

在府际层面构建环境治理网络是实现区域可持续发展的必要保障,以往研究缺乏对异质性结构下的强度网络特征的关注,难以揭示地方政府治理网络的深层运作规律。基于府际合作的结构逻辑和工具逻辑,本文从“结构—特征”的二维视角构建了府际合作网络的交互分析框架。在结构上,考察上级政府参与下的纵向合作和城市间自主性横向协作网络演变;在特征上,构建府际合作强度模型,进而形成数量网络和强度网络。通过以长三角城市群2011—2019年的环境治理实践为研究样本,本文发现,基于数量的合作网络中,长三角城市群环境治理形成了纵向权威力量参与下的集体行动与横向小范围自主协作相互嵌合的合作机制;基于强度的合作网络中,上海都市圈和南京都市圈是两大强度重心区域,上级政府参与的纵向合作制约力更强,行政干预是目前地方政府环境治理集体行动得以深入发展的重要推进力量。

Opportunities for better use of collective action theory in research and governance for invasive species management

Controlling invasive species presents a public-good dilemma. Although environmental, social, and economic benefits of control accrue to society, costs are borne by only a few individuals and organizations. For decades, policy makers have used incentives and sanctions to encourage or coerce individual actors to contribute to the public good, with limited success. Diverse, subnational efforts to collectively manage invasive plants, insects, and animals provide effective alternatives to traditional command-and-control approaches. Despite this work, there has been little systematic evaluation of collective efforts to determine whether there are consistent principles underpinning success. We reviewed 32 studies to identify the extent to which collective-action theories from related agricultural and environmental fields explain collaborative invasive species management approaches; describe and differentiate emergent invasive species collective-action efforts; and provide guidance on how to enable more collaborative approaches to invasive species management. We identified 4 types of collective action aimed at invasive species—externally led, community led, comanaged, and organizational coalitions—that provide blueprints for future invasive species management. Existing collective-action theories could explain the importance attributed to developing shared knowledge of the social-ecological system and the need for social capital. Yet, collection action on invasive species requires different types of monitoring, sanctions, and boundary definitions. We argue that future government policies can benefit from establishing flexible boundaries that encourage social learning and enable colocated individuals and organizations to identify common goals, pool resources, and coordinate efforts.     

Wildlife impacts and vulnerable livelihoods in a transfrontier conservation landscape

Interactions between humans and wildlife resulting in negative impacts are among the most pressing conservation challenges globally. In regions of smallholder livestock and crop production, interactions with wildlife can compromise human well-being and motivate negative sentiment and retaliation toward wildlife, undermining conservation goals. Although impacts may be unavoidable when human and wildlife land use overlap, scant large-scale human data exist quantifying the direct costs of wildlife to livelihoods. In a landscape of global importance for wildlife conservation in southern Africa, we quantified costs for people living with wildlife through a fundamental measure of human well-being, food security, and we tested whether existing livelihood strategies buffer certain households against crop depredation by wildlife, predominantly elephants. To do this, we estimated Bayesian multilevel statistical models based on multicounty household data (n = 711) and interpreted model results in the context of spatial data from participatory land-use mapping. Reported crop depredation by wildlife was widespread. Over half of the sample households were affected and household food security was reduced significantly (odds ratio 0.37 [0.22, 0.63]). The most food insecure households relied on gathered food sources and welfare programs. In the event of crop depredation by wildlife, these 2 livelihood sources buffered or reduced harmful effects of depredation. The presence of buffering strategies suggests a targeted compensation strategy could benefit the region's most vulnerable people. Such strategies should be combined with dynamic and spatially explicit land-use planning that may reduce the frequency of negative human–wildlife impacts. Quantifying and mitigating the human costs from wildlife are necessary steps in working toward human–wildlife coexistence.     

跨国水资源保护的法律措施——兼及中国的实践

国际流域各国在自己境内利用跨国水资源或进行其他活动时,有义务保护国际流域水资源,防止对其他流域国造成重大损害。对有关国际文件的规定和国际社会的实践进行了系统的分析和比较,从促进跨国水资源包括涉及我国的跨国水资源保护的目的出发,运用比较、概括和归纳的方法,对流域各国保护国际流域水资源的法律措施进行了归纳和总结。这些措施包括但不限于环境影响评价、交流信息、监测、通知、紧急情况下的援助、控制污染、公众参与等。最后就中国促进相关跨国水资源的保护提出了具体的措施建议：严格执行《环境影响评价法》、《水污染防治法》等法律法规;建立跨国河流水环境监测网;保持和加强与相邻国家和沿岸各国的信息交流与合作;继续与更多的沿岸国谈判和签署双边或多边流域保护协议,并建立流域保护或管理委员会负责对跨国河流流域的保护与管理.     

TiO2／Ni PECO体系降解DMP的动力学和光电协同作用研究

以采用微波辅助法制备的TiO2／Ni光电极为阳极,纤维状石墨毡材料（graphite felt,GF）为阴极,饱和甘汞电极（saturated calomel electrode,SCE）为参比电极建立TiO2／Ni光电催化氧化（PECO）体系。以邻苯二甲酸二甲酯（dimethy phthalate,DMP）为目标物,研究其光电催化降解反应动力学和光电协同作用。结果显示：DMP的降解符合拟一级动力学规律;当DMP初始浓度一定时,影响DMP光电催化降解速率的因素由强到弱依次为：催化剂有效面积,紫外光强度,曝氧速率,外加偏转电压等。实验证明本体系中光电之间具有协同作用。     

论污染防控与生态保育

近年来,不仅是生态保育,污染防控也越来越呈现出区域性乃至整体性,这是由环境自身运动规律决定的。污染防控和生态保育必须重宏观、重预防、重效率。环境污染加剧生态破坏,使脆弱的生态环境雪上加霜,也使生态问题更加复杂化,但环境污染不是生态环境问题的全部。生态问题必须用生态的办法来解决。违反自然规律的行为必须禁止,让不堪重负的生态系统休养生息。生态保育不仅是解决生态问题的基本出路,也是从深层次上解决污染问题的基本出路。生态保育是生态文明建设的一个重要组成部分。不论是污染防控,还是生态保育,都必须同时遵循自然规律和社会主义市场经济规律,激发市场主体保护环境的内生动因,方能可持续发展。     

从政企合作看中国企业环境监督员制度的完善

日益严峻的环境问题要求我国政府继续保持强大的环境管制压力.同时,充分调动企业自主环境管理的积极性也成为“十二五”期间管理性减排的核心任务之一.认真研究企业环境管理制度设计的方向和目标,实现政企环境合作已经成为当前环境管理制度创新的基本要求.现行企业环境监督员制度是我国借鉴日本经验试行的一项旨在提倡政企合作的环境政策工具.我国目前企业环境管理总体趋势是背向自组织环境管理的,强化面向企业内部环境管理的直接管制应当是当前和今后一段时间的总体趋势.由于我国企业自主环境管理面临着外部约束力不够、内部动力不足的困境,现行政企合作的制度目标应当直接定位为政府环境管制工具.基于这一定位,环境监督的对象企业应当由污染物息量和种类标准转为达标排放标准;职责范围应当根据企业规模进行差别设计,规模以上企业以推进政企环境信息沟通为主,中小企业应强化其监督功能,另设企业环境管理人员履行执行功能.     

国际机制视角下的东北亚环境合作

摘要由于环境问题与区域地理因素、生态环境系统的紧密关系,从而使当今的环境问题跨越了主权国家的地理边界,渗透到整个区域甚至全球生态系统.环境合作有助于促进环境领域内国际机制的建设和发展,国际机制的功能性能够推动环境合作的不断深化,环境合作与国际机制之间的互动机理推动了环境合作机制的建构.共同利益、依赖路径、机制内容和机制效能是全面评估环境合作机制的四大基础要件.随着近些年来东北亚地区环境问题越来越突出,不断加强和持续深化环境领域合作成为域内各国的当务之急.东北亚环境合作机制是维护东北亚环境合作的重要工具之一,是推动东北亚环境合作发展的重要途径.目前东北亚环境合作不断走向务实,形成了多领域、多层次、多渠道的格局,环境领域的机制化建设逐步明显,但是东北亚环境合作机制建设仍然处于起步阶段,还需要长期有效的建设和完善.大力推进和不断深化东北亚环境合作机制建设,应当以域内各国在环境领域的共同利益为基础,顺畅环境合作方面的依赖路径,进一步完善地区环境合作机制的框架和内容并切实发挥其效能.     

Factors of success and failure for transboundary environmental cooperation: projects in the Gulf of Aqaba

After signing a peace accord in 1994, joint projects were initiated between Israel and Jordan aimed at enhancing environmental protection and resource management. This paper discusses the Red Sea Dead Sea Canal, the Eilat-Aqaba Municipal Cooperation initiative, the Joint Oil Spill Contingency Plan and the Red Sea Marine Peace Park (RSMPP). The latter is an exemplar of transboundary cooperation for planning of a marine protected area and therefore the main case study. Although the RSMPP never fully materialized, analysis of what transpired provides important lessons. We examine what happened in the 20 years since the attempt to establish the RSMPP began and focus on which of its goals were achieved. As a basis for analysis this paper presents factors identified as significant to the success of transboundary protected areas (TBPAs) and uses them to compare the RSMPP to the three other initiatives. In addition to factors reported in the literature that are known to be effective for TBPA success, we found two new factors as most relevant for the RSMPP case: a peripheral geographic location and intensive work among professionals, mostly marine scientists, on the ground operating under a low profile and with limited public attention.
