翠华山水湫池及其附近崩塌堆积形成年代探疑

通过对相关史料的分析,论证了翠华山主景区崩塌堆积不可能是唐天宝年间地震诱发山崩形成的。通过实地考察,认为这些崩塌堆积不是同时发生,而是多期崩塌活动的结果,并且崩塌活动又都发生在水湫池被堰塞成湖之后。因此,水湫池不可能是唐代的地震山崩形成的。     

A new Permian–Triassic boundary brachiopod fauna from the Xinmin section,southwestern Guizhou,south China and its extinction patterns

Wu, H.T., He, W.H., Shi, G.R., Zhang, K.X., Yang, T.L., Zhang, Y., Xiao, Y.F., Chen, B. & Wu, S.B., XX.XXXX.2018. A new Permian–Triassic boundary brachiopod fauna from the Xinmin section, southwestern Guizhou, south China and its extinction patterns. Alcheringa 00, 000–000. ISSN 0311-5518.

A new brachiopod fauna comprising 31 species in 19 genera is described from a Permian–Triassic boundary section in Xinmin, Guizhou Province, Southwestern China. The brachiopods were collected from the Changhsingian (latest Permian) Changxing (=Changhsing) and Dalong (=Talung) formations and the lower Griesbachian (earliest Triassic) Daye Formation, which were deposited, respectively, in a shallow-water carbonate platform, upper offshore and carbonate platform settings. Among the brachiopods described and illustrated, a new species Juxathyris subcircularis is proposed. In addition, some species Araxathyris previously reported in south China have been discussed in detail and revised, with new morphological information. In particular, internal structures are provided for the first time for Orthothetina and Araxathyris species reported from south China. In addition, important clarifications are also provided on the morphology and diagnoses for Haydenoides, Martinia, Crurithyris and Transcaucasathyris, as well as for Paryphella transversa.

Situated Payments for Ecosystem Services: Local Agencies in the Implementation of the Sloping Land Conversion Programme in Southwest China

Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) is an innovative initiative to use market instruments for conservation that has spread across the world since the late 1990s. In assessing the efficiency and effectiveness of PES initiatives, global scholarship has focused on an outcome-oriented approach. This has led to debate on PES programmes’ contributions to, and the trade-offs between, conservation and development. Taking the Sloping Land Conversion Programme (SLCP) in China as an example, this article uses a process-oriented analytical approach to provide novel understandings of PES as a specific type of development practice. The article shows how notions of equity and justice, local knowledge and local institutions have played a role in shaping the processes and outcomes of the SLCP. The actions of local stakeholders in an interplay with the state created a space for negotiating, adapting and adjusting PES implementation, which eventually contributed to a local development pathway for meeting both national conservation interests and local economic development needs. This indicates that attention to situated agency can help illuminate how PES can be smoothly implemented and effectively negotiated in developing countries.     

从秦俑坑出土箭镞看镞的发展演变

1974年秦兵马俑坑发现之后,俑坑中出土约40000支箭镞,除了4件铁铤铜镞、2件铁镞之外,其余均为铜铤铜镞。本文拟通过对目前秦兵马俑坑中出土的大型铜镞和小型铜镞的型制与青铜配比的分析,来研究秦代箭镞的特点,并以此探讨镞的发展演变。

南宋“福宁、坤宁、慈宁”万寿钱考

宫钱,是现今泉界对古代帝皇宫中为节庆大典而特铸钱的总称,它是只用于朝聘、馈赠、赏赐、撒帐及用于宫廷装饰,而不参与流通的特制钱币之称谓。若以方孔铸钱论,可追溯到西汉的金五铢①。到唐代已是十分盛行,如西安曾一次出土窖藏金银开元通宝451枚之多②,但这些宫钱的形制、文字
