“…Concentrations of SS in flood season at 4 stations were higher than that in dry season showed that, with concentrated rainfall, erosion action by runoff accounted for increase of SS in summer [8] [10].Negative correlations between DO and COD Mn , and between DO and BOD 5 of S2, S3, and S4 indicated that oxidation effect of COD Mn and BOD 5 reduced concentration of DO. Significant positive correlation between COD Mn and BOD 5 at all the 3 stations, which suggested that such a positive correlation was relatively stable [11].…”

Long-term trends and spatial patterns of water quality at 5 stations in the upstream of the Daling River basin of North China were examined for 5 parameters—pH, suspended sediment (SS), dissolved oxygen (DO), permanganate demand (CODMn) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5). Analysis determined the trends of parameters of each station between 1987 and 2007. The variations in permanganate demand and biochemical oxygen demand showed increasing trends and the variations in dissolved oxygen were decrease in 1990s. Multi-year average values of permanganate demand and dissolved oxygen in Chaoyang station and Jianping station were 2.8 mg/L, 37.6 mg/L and 9.6 mg/L, 6.1 mg/L, respectively. The parameter characteristics of water quality in flood and dry season showed significant heterogeneity at main stream and tributary. Correlations between parameters were analyzed using a regression analysis method. The correlations of each parameter determined there were linear negative correlation between dissolved oxygen and permanganate demand, dissolved oxygen and biochemical oxygen demand at Habaqi station, Dachengzi station and Chaoyang station. The permanganate demand and biochemical oxygen demand was significant positive correlation in 3 stations.

“…However, the central government has invested considerable resources since the mid-1990's to improve its agricultural and environmental accounting (Wu, 2009). Agricultural land is typically owned by the Chinese central government, with long-term land leases and contracts administered by local villages.…”

a b s t r a c tThis study proposes the use of marginal abatement cost curves to calculate environmental damages of agricultural systems in China's Loess Plateau. Total system costs and revenues, management characteristics and pollution attributes are imputed into a directional output distance function, which is then used to determine shadow prices and abatement cost curves for soil and nitrogen loss. Marginal abatement costs curves are an effective way to compare economic and conservation tradeoffs when field-specific data are scarce. The results show that sustainable agricultural practices can balance soil conservation and agricultural production; land need not be retired, as is current policy.Published by Elsevier Ltd.
