Full textHong Kong is an Asian metropolis with a population of approximately seven million. Previous studies on the region concentrate on its history that is marked by radical changes to conclude that the on-going makeovers in the physical environment leave people without a permanence of place. Researchers also say that this fluid history eradicates temporal identity because pre-modernism and post-modernism exist at the same time. This study investigates how to describe and explain the relationship between people and environment in Hong Kong. Six informants who are from Hong Kong and who live in Hong Kong help to portray an image of home that does not agree with earlier studies. By looking at physical and emotional boundaries, expressions, and temporal dimensions, this study shows that people cannot be separated from their environment as both parts constitute the unity of being home. This study therefore concludes that neither the sense of place nor the temporal identity is threatened by the region's history of instability. Rather, the informants express a strong sense of home because of the fast pace of life in Hong Kong.

Full textA vida de PSB foi influenciada desde cedo pela cultura e tradição chinesas por ter crescido na China imperial e aí vivido metade da sua vida. Conheceu e presenciou revoluções que marcaram a história da China, e a levaram a temer pela própria vida e dos seus. Essas experiências moldaram o seu carácter, no contacto próximo com o sofrimento, a miséria, discriminação e a exploração dos mais fracos. Desde a juventude revelou a sua tendência para a produção literária, escrevendo sobretudo acerca do povo chinês que amava e conhecia de forma tão profunda. Em 1930 escreveu o seu primeiro romance, East Wind, West Wind e, em 1931 a sua obra emblemática. The Good Earth, com o qual ganhou o prémio Pulitzer, que se revelou de enorme importância para a atribuição do Prémio Nobel da Literatura em 1938. Nos seus romances abordou diversos temas: a vida dos camponeses e d a sociedade chinesa em geral, na transição do período imperial para a república, o amor inter-racial e o racismo e a discriminação das mulheres e das minorias étnicas, entre outros. Foi com a obra sobre a China e o Oriente que PSB ajudou os Estados Unidos a mudar a concepção sobre os povos orientais, contribuindo de forma significativa para a aproximação entre os povos. Em 1970 a UNESCO fez um estudo que mostrou que as obras de PSB foram traduzidas para 145 línguas e dialectos, sendo PSB o autor americano mais traduzido. A partir de 1934 regressou definitivamente aos Estados Unidos e tornou-se uma defensora da vida e dos direitos dos desamparados da sociedade – as crianças órfãs mestiças, as minorias étnicas e os povos sob o jugo imperialista. Lutou contra a lei que impedia a imigração de chineses nos Estados Unidos, insurgiu-se contra a detenção dos niponico-americanos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e foi uma das únicas figuras públicas de raça branca que lutaram contra a discriminação dos negros a partir da década de 1940. Fundou a “Welcome House", uma agência de adopção para crianças Amerasian e a “East West Association", uma organização com o intuito de promover as relações culturais entre os Estados Unidos e o Oriente. Dando o exemplo, adoptou sete crianças multiraciais e em 1964 fundou a “Pearl S. Buck Foundation", uma organização não governamental que tem vindo a fornecer assistência médica e educação a mais de 25.000 crianças Amerasian em mais de uma dezena de países orientais
La vie de PSB a été influencée très tôt par la culture et la tradition chinoises en raison d’avoir été élevée au sein de la China impériale et d’y avoir vécue la moitié de sa vie. Elle a connu et vécu des révolutions qui ont marqué l’histoire de la Chine et qui l’ont fait craindre sa vie et sa famille. Ces expériences ont moulé son caractère, vu qu’elle a contacté de près avec la souffrance, la misère, la discrimination et l’exploitation des plus faibles. Depuis sa jeunesse, sa tendance pour la production littéraire s’est révélée, en écrivant surtout sur le peuple chinois qu’elle aimait et connaissait d’une façon si profonde. En 1930, elle a écrit son premier roman East Wind, West Wind et, en 1931, son oeuvre emblématique, The Good Earth, avec laquelle elle a reçu le prix Pulitzer et qui s’est révélée d’une extrême importance pour l’attribution du Prix Nobel de la Littérature en 1938. Dans ses romans, elle a abordé plusieurs sujets : la vie des paysans et de la société chinoise en générale, dans la transition de la période impériale pour la république , l’amour interraciale et le racisme, et la discrimination des femmes et des minorités ethniques, parmi d’autres. Grâce à son oeuvre sur la Chine et sur l’Orient, PSB a aidé les Etats-Unis à changer leur conception envers les peuples orientaux, en contribuant d’une façon signifiante pour le rapprochement entre les peuples. En 1970, l’UNESCO a fait une étude qui montre que les oeuvres de PSB ont été traduites en 145 langues et dialectes. Elle a été l’écrivain américain le plus traduit. A partir de 1934, elle a fait son retour définitif aux Etats-Unis et elle est devenue une défenseuse tenace de la vie et des droits des plus défavorisés de la société – les enfants orphelins métis, les minorités ethniques et les peuples sous le joug impérialiste. Elle a lutté contre la loi qui empêchait l’immigration des chinois aux Etats-Unis. Elle s’est insurgée contre la détention des nippon-américains pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale et elle a été une des seules figures publiques de race blanche qui ont lutté contre la discrimination des noirs à partir de 1940. PSB a fondé « Welcome House », une agence d’adoption pour enfants Amerasian et « East West Association », une organisation pour promouvoir les relations culturelles entre les Etats-Unis et l’Orient. En donnant son exemple, elle a adopté sept enfants multiraciales et en 1964 elle a fondé « Pearl S. Buck Foundation », une organisation non gouvernementale qui a déjà donné de l’assistance médicale et de l’éducation à plus de 25.000 enfants Amerasian dans plus d’une dizaine de pays orientaux
PSB’s life was influenced by Chinese culture and tradition from an early age for having been raised in imperial China and having lived there half of her life. She witnessed revolutions that shaped China’s history and which made her fear for her own life and for her family’s. Those experiences formed her character by directly contacting suffering, misery, discrimination and the exploitation of the weakest. She revealed her literary skill since her youth, writing mainly about the Chinese people whom she loved and knew in such a profound way. In 1930 she wrote her first novel, East Wind, West Wind and in 1931 she wrote her most famous novel, The Good Earth, for which she received the Pulitzer Prize, and in 1938 she received the Nobel Literature Prize. In her novels she covered several themes: the Chinese peasants’ life and the overall Chinese society in the transition from the imperial to the republic periods, inter-racial love, racism, women’s and ethnic minorities’ discrimination, among other. PSB’s work about China and the East helped the United States to change its conception about the oriental peoples, and she helped approaching the peoples. In 1970 a UNESCO survey reported that PSB’s work had been translated into 145 different languages and dialects, making her more frequently translated than any other American writer. She returned to the United States definitely in 1934 and she became a daring defender of life and of the rights of society’s outcasts – Amerasian orphans, ethnic minorities and peoples under the oppression of imperialism. She fought against the “Chinese Exclusion Laws" and the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II she was one of the few white intellectuals who struggled against the discrimination of African Americans in the forties. She founded “Welcome House", an adoption agency for Amerasian children and “East West Association", an organization for the promotion of cultural exchanges between the United States and the East. She adopted seven multiracial children and in 1964 she founded “Pearl S. Buck Foundation" a new non-governmental agency which has already supplied medical assistance and education to more than 25,000 Amerasian children in a dozen eastern countries

Estuary is an important land-sea interface where active biogeochemical processes occur as a result of river in-fluxes of dissolved and particulate weathering materials from the continent to the ocean. To assess these in-fluxes and the associated biogeochemical processes, a core was collected from the estuary of Pearl River in south China and was measured for the distributions of the decay-series radioisotopes with depth. The sedimentation rate was dated by using excess Pb-210 to be 4.4±1.2 cm/yr (α-spectrometer) and 3.8±1.2 cm/yr (γ-spectrometer), respectively. The thorium isotope measurements exhibit significant deficiency of Th-228 relative to Th-232, implying a significant out-flux of Ra-228 out of sediments by subterranean groundwater discharge. The Th-230/U-234 activity ratios are mostly greater than one, resulting from preferential loss of uranium relative to thorium during the weathering of source rock in the drainage region. Excess U-234 relative to Th-230 as found at some depths indicates an enrichment of authigenic uranium in sediments under reducing conditions. These results, together with the measurements of U-238/Th-232 and U-234/U-238 in the same core, clearly recorded a concordant change in the continental weathering flux, the POC flux, and the redox conditions in Pear-River sediments during the past decades, a change which may attributed to the dual causes of the decadal wet/dry climate changes in the region as well as the anthropogenic contaminations of the Pearl River associated with the rapid regional industrial/economic development. Our study shows that the decay series radioisotopes in estuarine sediments provide a useful tool for understanding the physical, chemical, and biological processes occurred in the continents and/or at the land-sea boundary.
