Terrain-Specific: Contemporary Landscape Architecture in Canada

The Canadian landscape has typically captured a global imaginary of a pristine wild, but how might its urban designed landscapes be distinctly understood? Foregrounded by the landscape transformations accelerated by climate change, the book Innate Terrain: Canadian Landscape Architecture, edited by Professor Alissa North from the University of Toronto, highlights landscape architecture projects situated on the unique Canadian terrain. Providing further provocation on Canadian landscape architecture, Innate Terrain seeks to fill the literary gap on contemporary landscape perspectives, distinguishing Canadian landscape architecture from global practice, and particularly, its well-documented American counterpart. Landscape architecture in the Canadian context has evolved and established its own distinct identity, one imbued with national and local sensitivities. Informed by diverse environmental and cultural contexts, Canadian-designed landscapes reflect and refer to the prevailing ecosystems of Canada’s innate terrain. Contrary to the preceding International Style, landscape architecture projects in Canada have adopted the ethos of Critical Regionalism in the second half of the 20th century. Contemporary Canadian practitioners are designing landscapes that are deeply informed by their surrounding geographical context while emphasizing cultural specificity. Central to this cultural specificity, addressed by a new generation of landscape architects, is the increasing recognition of Indigenous Traditional Knowledge within the discipline. Canadian landscape architects have collaborated with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities, including the keepers of this knowledge, to develop land management strategies and design landscape interventions.

水环境实时调控决策支持系统的开发与应用

以建立水环境实时调控决策支持系统为目标,集成综合数据监测体系、数据库、流域入河污染物负荷模型、河流水环境模型、水环境承载能力与污染负荷动态调控模型、GIS平台等众多模块,提出了系统组成的总体框架,分析了多种数学模型间的集成链接方法、GIS显示体系与数学模型间的交互方法、水环境状态实时模拟与基于调控措施的方案模拟等系统集成的关键环节,提出了水环境实时调控与数字化管理功能在复杂大系统中的实现思路与方法,为复杂水环境调控系统的开发与集成提供了简单实用的集成模式。系统在北运河水系水环境管理中的应用结果表明:该系统方法实现了北运河的实时调控模拟,提高了区域水环境管理的智能化水平。研究成果对水环境实时调控与决策系统的建立及精细化管理具有重要的参考价值。     

再生混凝土力学性能提升技术与应用

针对大量混凝土废弃物造成生态环境日益恶化及天然骨料资源日益缺乏的问题,通过配制不同强度等级和不同再生骨料掺量的再生混凝土,并结合锡澄运河三级航道整治工程对再生混凝土力学性能及其提升技术进行试验研究。结果表明:再生骨料的掺量对C35及以下中低强度混凝土力学性能影响较小,而对C40及以上中高强度混凝土有较大影响,随再生骨料掺量的增加,再生混凝土力学性能降低;通过合理选用再生骨料级配、与天然骨料复掺、对再生骨料进行强化以及优化配合比参数等措施能提升混凝土力学性能;锡澄运河三级航道整治工程实际应用取得了很好的技术经济效益。     

清代大运河之帆船航运

自中国封建王朝定都北京以来,连接北京和杭州的大运河一直作为水上要道发挥着重要作用。特别是在明清两代,大运河作为最重要的漕运通路,承担了江南税粮输送的任务。可以说,从某种意义上看,大运河与北京政权的命运息息相关。但到目前为止,这些承担输送任务的漕船到底如何在大运河上航行的问题,仍然不甚清晰。因此,以清代的档案史料为中心,来分析运河漕船的航行情况。     

浙东运河闸坝控制工程及其技术特征研究

浙东运河是中国大运河的重要组成部分、是内河水运网络与海运联接的纽带。与大运河其他河段相比,浙东运河水系水文、控制工程有其鲜明特点。本文基于水利工程科技史的视角,对浙东运河水系构成及分段特点、浙东运河控制工程分布、闸坝工程型式与功能特征及其原因进行了系统分析,对浙东运河宁波段极具特色的闸坝功能划分特征、闸坝结合的工程型式产生及其技术特点进行了考证、分析,从中国大运河整体视角审视浙东运河水利工程遗产的特点及其科技价值。     

基于功能语境视角下的非物质文化遗产外宣归化异化翻译——以扬州大运河外宣翻译为例

非物质文化遗产的外宣翻译和国家当前提出的"文化走出去战略"不谋而合。归化异化翻译理论更适合于翻译中文化因素的处理已得到了翻译界的认可。文章以扬州大运河非物质文化遗产外宣翻译为研究对象,针对非遗外宣翻译的目的及特点,以功能语境理论为指导方针,以归化异化翻译为手段,来探讨非物质文化遗产的外宣翻译。     

茂名石化工业渠用水管理现状及建议

南盛拦河坝及工业引水渠是高州水库灌区的供水配套工程,因历史原因造成由企业用水户管理维护。目前管理单位只管工程及引水,不进行用水计量与水帐结算;水利部门只管供水总量,不管工程,导致无法统一协调供水、工程效能下降、水费扯皮难收、责权利不统一等问题。建议将南盛拦河坝及工业渠归口水利部门管理,真正实现水资源和水利工程统一调度、综合治理,实现高效节约用水。     

Digital narrative conventions in heritage trail mobile apps

ABSTRACT

Galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAMs) are increasingly using digital technologies for storytelling and creating mobile applications (apps) for cultural heritage content, but how apps are used in practice to communicate information to users has not been widely studied. A team of people from a heritage organisation, a university, and mobile app development group plan to create a bespoke heritage trail app for Ireland, but to date design conventions/recommendations for this genre are lacking. This article applies a systematic approach to digital narrative content analysis to better understand how apps are being used specifically for heritage trails with the aim of identifying what the common features are, which modalities and narrative techniques are used. The selected corpus included 55 apps downloaded from the Google Play Store. The results of this content analysis—based on the App Walkthrough Method (Light, B., Burgess, J., & Duguay, S. (2018). The walkthrough method: An approach to the study of apps. New Media & Society, 20(3), 881–900)—show that there is a gap between academic research themes/trends and how digital narrative is actually being communicated in the current market, and it aims to inform the future development of heritage trail apps by including a list of design and content features common to this genre.
