Nonuse values of climate policy : an empirial study in Xinjiang and Beijing [PDF]
Climate policy measures can be roughly subdivided into mitigation measures and adaptation measures. Mitigation policy aims at a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions with the overall goal of slowing down climate change and global warming.

Biological Traits and Isoenzymatic Characterization of Triplophysa strauchii from the Turks River
The intensification of human activities in recent years has led to significant overexploitation of Triplophysa strauchii populations, resulting in a decline in the species’ natural stocks.

Tectonic Characteristic and Origin of Tazhong Uplift, Tarim Basin
This paper presents the analysis on geological characteristics of Tazhong Uplift, such as the configuration and nature of the fault structures, and the aeromagnetic anomaly, etc. The study result shows that Tazhong Uplift presents several large-scale fault belts that mainly extend in three directions: NW, approximate (approx.) EW and NNE.

Phylogeography of a widespread terrestrial vertebrate in a barely-studied Palearctic region: green toads (Bufo viridis subgroup) indicate glacial refugia in Eastern Central Asia. [PDF]
The phylogeography of western Palearctic species is relatively well studied, but data on Eastern Central Asia are scarce. We present one of the first data sets from a widespread terrestrial vertebrate (Bufo pewzowi) inhabiting Eastern Central Asian ...
