Le Bassin minier du Nord-Pas-de-Calais, un patrimoine évolutif et vivant. Entre conservation et évolution, enjeux et nouveau paradigme pour les projets d’architecture by Philippe Prost, Lucas Monsaingeon

“…The region is currently in brutal transition, after the closure of the mines from 1960 to 1990. Inscribed on the World Heritage Site list as an "evolving and living cultural landscape" in 2012, the recognition of this territory, considered a force of resilience for an ambitious transition, has raised the question of preservation and architecture - with more than 28,000 registered housings - on land rarely approached and on an unprecedented scale, raising many questions for architects and preservationists. …”

Spatial and Temporal Variation Characteristics of Forests and Analysis of Potential for Reconstruction of Water Conservation Forests in the Dongjiang River Basin from 1980 to 2020 by DAI Miaolin, LU Xiaoqi, ZANG Chuanfu, ZHU Ke, QIU Xintong, LUO Yiwen, ZHANG Weiqiang, GAN Xianhua

“…The Dongjiang River is the most important water source area in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area,supplying water for the three mega-cities of Hong Kong,Shenzhen,and Guangzhou.The Dongjiang River Basin has abundant light and heat resources and sufficient rainfall,and it is one of the regions with the highest forest coverage rate in China.Since 1980,the land cover,especially the forest with the largest proportion in the Dongjiang River Basin,has changed significantly in the Dongjiang River Basin under the influence of natural factors,policy,and economic development.Therefore,how to scientifically plan and design afforestation projects and transform water conservation forests according to potential has become a hot social issue.The study was based on 30 m resolution land use and soil data of the Dongjiang River Basin from 1980 to 2020,and it combined with the data of Dongjiang River Source station and socio-economic index data.The study used spatial analysis and factor analysis to explore the spatial-temporal changes and driving mechanisms of forest cover in the Dongjiang River Basin from 1980 to 2020 and analyze the potential of water conservation forest reconstruction in the future.① From 1980 to 2020,the forest decreased continuously in the Dongjiang River Basin,with a total reduction of 998.81 km².The changes were mainly concentrated in the south and north of the Dongjiang River Basin.In the northern part of the basin,a great deal of forest has been transformed into farmland,while in the southern part of the basin,a great deal of forest has been transformed into cities and countrysides or areas for industry,mining,and housing.② In the period of 1980—2020,the main factors affecting the change of forest area were the number of permanent residents,population density,GDP,output value of secondary and tertiary industries,output value of industry,agriculture,and forestry,total retail sales of social consumer goods,investment in fixed assets,and urban registered unemployment rate.③ The area for future reconstruction in the Dongjiang River Basin was 5 365 km².The areas with high potential for reconstruction were mainly in the north and southeast parts of the basin.In the past 40 years,the forest area of the Dongjiang River Basin has continued to decrease and is strongly influenced by human activities.Water conservation forest has great potential to be transformed.…”

Characteristics and Driving Forces of Spatiotemporal Changes of River-Lake-Reservoir Water System in Guangdong Province by LIAO Tianzhu, HE Min, GUO Haijing, ZHAO Ruijuan, KANG Yu, LI Zhi

“…The results show that: ① From 1980 to 2021, the river area continued to shrink while the reservoir area continued to grow, and the trend of both changes changed abruptly in 1995. ② The water landscape pattern tended to be fragmented, complicated, and discrete. ③ In the past 40 years, the land use change of 50 m around the water area was mainly the transformation of rivers into reservoirs, and a large area of the river-lake-reservoir water system was transformed into urban and rural, industrial, mining, and residential lands from 1995 to 2021. ④ Annual mean temperature, permanent population density, and economic output values were the main driving factors of water area and landscape pattern change. …”
