    In this paper,the numbers of the damaged counties(especially for Drought/Flood counties) are extracted from the historical materials in Chian during historical times, and the reliability of them are described. In general, the materials about the number of Drought/Flood counties can be considered as quantitative information of climate.And so, to reconstruct the Dryness/Wetness index series by using these materials, the comprehensive error of the series can be avioded better than by using the description about disasters in historical documents. To show the process of reconstrcting Dryness/Wetness index series by the number of Drought/Flood counties, a case of Beijing is described, and the reliability is discussed.

    In this paper, an empisical, equation for, estimating the quotient between the monthly sums of sensible anb latent heat fluxes is proposed on the basis of the heat balance data measured during 1958-1960 period at Beijing and Zhenzhow,And the monthly evaporation sums for the months from May to August are estimated with the equation by using an eight-year routine meteorological data in the yellow River Valley. Finally the relationship between the monthly evaporation and precipitiation deviation (%) is discussed.The main results are found as following.1) The errors of the total evaporation rn summer computed with Fq.5 and Eq.7 to those obtained from 《Atlas of water Climatology of China》 are about -10% for most of the stations in Tab.2.2) The monthly evaporation amounts for the drought years (1972,1975,1986) range from 12.6 to 30.1 KJ·cm-2 and those for the flood year(l988) is from H.2 to 25.1 KJ·cm-2.3) The summery evaporation amounts in the drought year are greater than that in flood year in area 1, but on the contrary, those for the drought year in area 3 are less.4) The evaporation amounts in summer increase with increasing precipitation sums for the drought year, but do not show consistent trend for the flood year.this is because the effects of precipitation deviation on evaporation in the eastern.part of the studied area are different from; those in the western part for the flood summer.

    According to the radiation-optical quality of volcanic ash we calculated the parameter of radiation-optic. Meanwhile, by using the equation of atmospheric radiation transfer, and the change rate of temperature was calculated.The result is as follows. The absorbant ability of volcanic ash is stronger than it of the background of stratosphere. Valcanic eruption witl heat the stratosplere by absorbing solar radiation, decrease the solar radiation on the earth surface, and have no effect on long wave radiative cooling rate.

    According to the observed data of heat and Water in the basins in middle areas, Shanxi previce, the paper analyses the heat and water conditions there under different cropping system, by using the following formulas: K=H-(ΣA+G)+ΔA, K=2H-(ΣA+G)+ΔA and B=P+C+(W1-W2)-(R+I)-E It alse colculates the budget of heat and water (not having irrigable condition) to the main field crops respectively. It shows.As to one crop per annum, heat surplus in the fields of winter wheat (≥0℃ cumulative temperature, else crops are ≥10℃. cumulative temperature), corn and millet is about 222.3℃, 937.4℃ and 1187.1℃ respectively. Heat deficit in the field of cotton is about 142.9℃ heat surplus is about 860.7℃ only in Linfen and Yuncheng basins, water deficit in the fields of winter wheat, corn, cotton and millet is-about 96.4mm 121.9mm 53.6mm and 151.1mm respectively.As to two-year-three crop system, heat surplus in the fields of crops(planting corn, winter wheat and millet) is about 779.2℃ heat deficit inthe field of crops is about 302.7℃ in Xin-ding basins. Water deficit inthe field of crops (planting corn, winter wheat and millet) is about 388.5mm.As to two-crop a year, if planting winter wheat and corn, heat deficit is about 165.5℃ and water deficit is about 196.3 mm. If planting winter wheat and millet, heat surplus is about 84.4℃ and water deficit is about 291.9mm in Yuncheng basin.From April to May is a period of the highest water consumption of winter wheat and the sowing time of corn, cotton and millet and the time of heat in field is higher. But in this period precipitation is the lowest. Therefore, a complementary amount of water is required in irrigation.The analysis and computation of the heat and water budgets are to provide scientific basis for making full use of the thermal resources, economizing on water resources irrigating crops in field rationally, developing the economy of Shanxi province.

    waterlogging damage is the main obstacle factor of agriculture in plain and lake region. In this paper, the standard of waterlogging damage is suggested based on the definition of waterlogging, with a lot of observational data in Jianghan Plain, and the cause and process of waterlogging formation are discussed. The conclusions are as follows.1. The waterlogging damage is taken piece if the buried depth of groundwatcr in dry season is less than 0.6m, and the standard of waterlogging damage can be divided into six degrees. (1) Non waterlogging, the buried depth of groundwater is more than 0.6m; (2) Marginal waterlogging, the groundwater level is 0.3-0.6m; (3) Slight waterlogging, the groundwater level is 0.2-0.3m;(4) Mid waterlogging, the groundwater level is 0.1-0.3m; (5)Hard waterlogging, the ground water level is within 0.1m; (6) Very hard waterlogging, the still water is On the ground surface.2. the trigger mechanism of waterloggia;damage is the coupling of leading factors such as the surface water dynamic, the groundwater dynamic, the micro-landforms, the reclamation and cultivation of the wetland, and the cropping system.3. The mechanism of waterlogging damage can be presented as follows. In natural situation, the living factors of environment (inducing human activities) are disastrously coupled to change the payare ochemical properties of sod,and then to influence the growtg of crops.At last it results in decrease ot the crop product.

    There is no doubt that ambiguous concepts of growth pole exist both in theoretical studies and in worldwide applications. This article clarified Perroux's original growth pole concept and its revised version applied by his followers. After pointing out the weakness of the revised concept and the failure of its practice of regional planning in many countries from Europe and America to Asia and Africa, the authors turned to Perroux's growth pole theorywhich is here considered as an applicable strategy for regional development.In order to seleect, or more exactly to recognize growth poles, it is necessary to propose an approach of starting from macro-economy to micro scope and from propulsive industries to propulsive enterprises. By searching the location (or potential location) of the propulsive enterprises, growth pole can be identified. The quantitative measure of selecting propulsive industries includes 8 indexes. industrial linkages, labourforce linksgea, innovation, comparative advantages, incom elasticrts, policy promotion, structural coordination and product life. After calculating each index, the total propulsive industrial index can be worked out by adding each weight index.By using this approach, the indexes of Kaifeng Municrpality of Henan Provice were computed. The results show that Kaifeng City and lancao Town are two growth poes in the research area.

    The correlation between provincial population density and its 31 influencing factors are analysed. Here two new economic indexes are introduced, grain yield per unit territory area and national income per unit territorory' area. The results of analysis show that these two indexes have closer relationship with population density than other economic indices, within all the 31 indices analysed,natural factors, especially elevation above sea level, influence population density most prominently. Economic factors influence population density more prominentely than population factors do. Educational factors have the weakest effect on population density.

    In Chinese rural areas with high-level township industry, the adjustment of rural economic structure and the change of agricultural function affect agricultural location. Mainly because of the introregional compensation of price scissors between agricultural products and industsial goods, the increase of opportunity cost and marginal cost, and the change of orientating resources, three mechanisms of choice are formed about sector, production means and management system.The impact of development on agricultural location was shown in four aspects: 1) transitional physical geographic region gradually loses its special advantage; 2) location transfer process results in the replacing cost of production; 3) agricultural location deviates from the location of processing industry, which results in the panic purchasing of agricultural products as raw materials; 4) location duality graduauy decreases.To minimize the negative effects of those impacts, four macro location policies are suggested: 1) cost compensation for the renewal of agricultural production base; 2) benefit compensation for pure raw material production areas; 3) protection of high-quality agricultural location; 4) beforehand cinstruction of reserve agricultural production base.

    In China, evaluation and development of regional tourism resources have undergone two stages with different characteristics. In the first stage, we evaluated regional tourism resources on the gases of its own. In the second stage, we are to evaluate it on the bases of tourism market. These are called two stages in one system, In the second-stage, many traditional programmes of the Chinese culture are made and some new tourist regions produced.The author probes into necessity, principle, and the methods for this re-evaluation. The paper deals with mainly five principles too. This paper concludes that the regional resources and the regional programmes must be re-evaluated under the circumstances of socialist market economy.

    The first part of this paper is the process of Hainan urban foundation in history based on the urban system theory. According to the geographic conditions of the island and the administration division and the demands for economic development, tbe author divides Hainan's urban system into three levels; system of nobal economic region, system of big economic region and system of city hinterland. According to the conditions of relief and hydrology of the island and the charateristics of centripetal concentration of cities and economy in Hainan, the whole island is divided into five second rank-size groups.Then, two diagrams and a map are made, a deductive diagram of Hainan urban system, adopting tbe urban rank-size rule by Mr,Yang Wuyang, a Chinese, and the gravitation model from the law of universal gravitation by P.Allen, a foreigner; the comparision between gravitation theory delimitation and boundaries of regions and counties; and the sketch map showing the gravitating among the main towns of Hainan,Finally, some problems about the future building of Hainan urban system and, about the numbers and designs of the rank-size in Hainan, are discussed. And proposals and arrangements for all above are put for ward in this article.

    Off-farm employment or transformation of rural labour force from traditional agriculture to non-agriculture and to city or town is an inevitable phenomenon associating with the economic development that has to be resolved in time.West Sichuan is located in the inner mainland of China, being a part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau inhabited by minority nationnlities with backward economic condition. The total population in the area covering 306500km2 is only about 6 millions with low population density, but it holds more quantities of natural resources in per capita than that of the whole country. The rate of population with non-agricultural identification is low and urbanization is undeveloped. High rate of rural surplus labour force is existing there and most labour forces are engaged in rural area an dagriculture while employment rate of off-farm activities is low for its underdeveloped non-agricultural industries, Most of off-farm employees are engaged in'heavy industry and raw material indusustry, Underemployment is a common form where labour force surplus remains. More multi-jobs keepers who do job in both off-farm and farm in the same period and staying in countryside show off-farm dmployment primitively. There was short history for developing off-farm industry and the speed of transformation from agriculture to non-agriculture is still low.For expanding more employment opportunities, the basic way is to accelerate the regional economic development. So it is necessary to develop more industry, rural enterprises, and the tertiary industry based on its abundant natural resources also needs to construct more commerce agricultural bases and agricultural product processings. Meanwhile it is important to change the natural ecomomic idea kept in the inhabitants into market idea and competitive idea. To control population quantity increasing and improve population quality is important as well as to speed universal education. To stimulate off-farm industry development we should make effort to develop cities and towns so as to absorb rural labour force. Finally we should emphasize labour force in institution and managenment for exchanging information, technical training, labour force marketing and labour force exporting.

    By water balance method and a series of large lysimeters we measured and studied the ground water utilization amount of rainfed crop and its rule of change at different ground water levels which are controlled autdmatically. Along wilh the rise of ground water level, the used ground water amount increased progressively according to a minus power exponential curve approximately, when the depth of ground water is between 0.9 and 1.5 meter, the ground water utilization amount of rainfed crop accounts for 30%-50% of the evapotranspiration of the winter wheat and transplanted cotton during the same period. In shallolw ground water areas, the ground water used by rainfed crop plays an important role in irrigation agriculture.
