To better understand road′s impact on animal habitats, we assessed the habitat pattern of sables(Martes zibellina), one of rodents within national first-class protected species, when roads are considered in Huzhong area in Da Hinggan Mountains, northeastern China. Employing published literatures about behavior ecology, aerial photographs and forest stand maps, we classified the study area into three habitat types including best-suitable, suitable and unsuitable habitats based on sable habitat requirements at the landscape scale including four variables derived from forest source map with attribute database. Results indicated the loss and significant fragmentation of best-suitable habitat and home range habitat when roads, especially 150 m avoidance distance of roads, were considered. The roads reduced and fragmented highly suitable habitats more significantly during earlier development period than the later development period. Additionally, the suitable area percentage increased with increasing distance to roads. This study helped to identify the suitable area for sables and location of sable population. Also, this study suggested the passage construction and road management involving road closure and removal will reduce the fragmentation functionally and benefit the sable population.展开更多

Economic and political modemity--globalization, the nation-state, and the development of global networks and organizations--establish widely-shared frames in which religions have been transformed. In particular, the development of global capitalism has provided unprecedented financial means and technologies of communication to religious leaders. I propose that local religious culture must be considered in light of these new organizational forms, networks, and practices. I take as my starting point a single location in China, the Daoist temple complex at Wudang Mountain, and the associated practices and activities of the Wudang Daoists. I consider how Wudang Daoism fits into four projects and two fields of practice. The four projects are cosmopolitan, civilizational, national and religious; the fields of practice are regional and diasporic.展开更多
