Повний текст джерелаIn recent years, the South China Sea has featured prominently in news headlines concerning territorial disputes and claims to maritime resources involving China, the Philippines and Vietnam. One of the most contentious disputes in the region is China’s so-called nine-dash line claiming historic rights deep into the South China Sea. This thesis argues that China’s historic rights claims in the South China Sea are not supported by public international law and accordingly China should seek a settlement with the Philippines and Vietnam. China should pursue a settlement because the Philippines and Vietnam can present persuasive legal arguments as to why China is not entitled to historic rights in the South China Sea. Also, the ongoing dispute over rights impedes the ability of China and other claimant states to effectively exploit the rich resources of the South China Sea while significantly raising inter-state tensions and threatening regional economies. Further, China’s insistence on maritime claims not in accordance with the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea encourages other states to assert similar historic rights claims, which could ultimately threaten China’s national security. Finally, China’s alleged interference with other states’ maritime rights in the South China Sea represents an unnecessary litigation risk of having multiple cases brought before international tribunals resulting in damage to China’s international standing.

"New insights into the current- and past hydrology of the north-western subtropical Pacific Ocean over the past 25 kyr, based on investigations of the Nd isotopic composition of seawater and deep-sea sediments from the northern South China Sea." Thesis, Paris 11, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA112169/document.
Повний текст джерелаThe aim of this study is to reconstruct the evolution of the hydrology of the western subtropical North Pacific Ocean by using εNd proxy analysed on foraminifera and dispersed authigenic ferromanganese oxide precipitates in sediments from deep-sea cores collected in the northern SCS. Before using the εNd proxy on deep sea sediments of the SCS, Nd of 16 seawater profiles collected in the northern South China Sea (SCS) and the Philippine Sea were investigated to establish the εNd distribution of water masses along the tropical western Pacific and the SCS that, until now have not been documented. εNd values for mid- and deep-water masses of the Philippine Sea and the SCS range from -2.7 to -4.4 and generally increase slightly with water depth. In the Philippine Sea, εNd values for the North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) reach- 2.7±0.4 at mid-depths (500 to 1400 m). Below ~1800 m, the Pacific Deep Water (PDW) is characterized by less radiogenic Nd (-4.1±0.5) indicating the instrusion of southern sourced water masses. For most of the stations in the Northern SCS, water masses below 1500m (PDW) display homogenous εNd values (~ -4.1) similar to those of the PDW in the Philippine Sea. εNd values for the South China Sea Intermediate Water (SCSIW, 500-1500m) vary from -3.0 to -3.9 as a result of the vertical mixing of the NPIW with the PDW in the SCS. Seawater εNd values for the SCS (~5.3 to -7.0) display local modification in areas where the water lies above sediment drift deposit systems. This implies that “boundary exchange” with unradiogenic sediments (around~11) may occur temporally and spatially and does not modify he Nd isotopic composition of the PDW in the Northern SCS. In a second step, seawater εNd extracted from cleaned planktonic foraminifera G. ruber has been investigated on core MD05-2904, collected at a deph of 2000m on the north-western margin of the SCS. This study was undertaken in order to reconstruct hydrological variations since the LGM in the western subtropical North Pacific. The εNd records obtained from foraminifera spanning the past 25kyr. Display a wide range of values, ranging from -4±0.2 to -6.7±0.3, suggesting important changes in the contribution of the NPDW (εNd=-4) and the UCDW (εNd -6 to -8) in the subtropical western Pacific. During the period of deglaciation, εNd records indicate a relative decrease in the negative excursions of the εNd implying a higher proportion of SSW during the time intervals 17-15 cal kyr BP and 10-8 cal kyr BP; these intervals are coeval with the HS1 and early Holocene. The negative shifts centered on the HS1coincide with an enhanced upwelling in the Southern Ocean, associated with a polewards shift of the southern westerlies, inducing an enhanced formation of the SSW that propagates to the subtropical western Pacific. The negative excursion of the εNd during the Early Holocene (~10-8 cal kyr BP) indicates a higher relative proportion of SSW that could be associate with higher production of the SSW, as has been recently observed in the South Atlantic, and/or with a possible reduction of the NPIW. Our data suggest that the present modern circulation pattern in the western subtropical Pacific Ocean was fully established after 4.6 cal kyr BP

Повний текст джерелаJi, Wenbin. "Late Mesozoic extensional tectonics in south China." Thesis, Orléans, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014ORLE2037/document.
Повний текст джерелаLate Mesozoic extensional structures are widespread in eastern Eurasia (from Transbaikalia region in Russia to inland South China). They constitute the largest crustal extensional province in the world. This thesis selected extensional structures developed in three different tectonic settings in the South China block. Detailed studies including structural geology, anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility and geochronology (zircon and titanite U-Pb, monazite U-Th-Pb, and mica Ar-Ar) were conducted. The expression of these extensional structures is not the same for each area: (1) the Tongbai-Dabie HP/UHP orogenic belt along the northern edge of the South China block was reworked by Cretaceous extensional antiform or metamorphic core complex. Coeval with migmatization and syntectonic magmatism, the extensional regime started at ca. 145 Ma, and approached its climax at ca. 130 Ma that was signaled by removal of the orogenic root. Locally, a late (110-90 Ma) extensional event was also recorded; (2) the Dayunshan-Mufushan batholith intruding the Neoproterozoic Jiangnan orogen is composed of two phases of granitic intrusions with Late Jurassic (ca. 150 Ma) and Early Cretaceous (ca. 132 Ma) ages, respectively. The late pluton emplaced under a NW-SE extensional setting corresponding to the Early Cretaceous crustal thinning process, with a detachment fault developed along its western margin; (3) the Huangling anticline within the Yangtze craton is a nearly N-S striking asymmetric dome formed between the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. The sedimentary cover on the two flanks was involved in a series of oppositely-directed collapse folding and layer-parallel slipping. These examples of Cretaceous extensional structures in different tectonic levels (exhumation of middle-lower crust by strong stretching, syn-tectonic emplacement of granitic pluton with limited stretching, deformation of sedimentary cover under a weak extension) indicates that South China also was involved into the regional extensional regime coeval with the destruction of the North China craton. These results provide first-hand new structural evidence for further discussing the temporal-spatial framework and geodynamic setting of the Cretaceous extensional tectonics on the eastern margin of Eurasia

The South Pacific Ocean is an area easily to be disregarded, although it possesses a very significant value of the military strategy.Contemporary,the South Pacific arena has become an important part of Chinese maritime Strategy.The reform and opening up in China bring the growth of economics and trade and the extension of national power for about twenty years, meanwhile, the state suffers from the demands of energy,the dispute of sovereignty,and the problems of the defensive screen of the American Containment Policy in East.Under such circumstances, China formulates a concrete and distinct military strategy in order to strive for the interests of the sea.On this purpose, China chooses the South Pacific area to be a part of Chinese strategic arrangements.According to the strategy, as soon as China invades the defensive screen of the American Containment Policy in east, an American military will be presence. Therefore, China can depend on its base and military power in the South Pacific area to prevent from the presence of an American military and delay it for the strategic purpose of the sea denial.

South China Sea, locating in the core of the Asia-Pacific region, shortening the distance from Indian Ocean to Western Pacific, has been the important shipping hub for centuries from East Asia to South Asia, Middle East, Africa and Europe. Because of the important geographical location coupled with complex historical background, the South China Sea dispute extends from a century ago to the present, being a long-standing regional issues. In recent years, not only the countries (the Republic of China, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and mainland China) compete for the sea sovereignty, but the non-disputing countries (US, Japan, India and Russia) are also actively involved in on the grounds of assisting allies, among which the hegemony of the world, the United States, is the most influential one. This paper begins analyzing the situation of South East Sea under the competition among the countries and the intervention of the United States. Secondly, it takes a deep look into the Asia-Pacific strategy and policy of the United States from the aspects of politics, economy and military security, and at last observing the situation in South China Sea after influenced by the intervention of the United States. On the aspect of politics, the United States takes advantages of the disputes to strengthen the cooperation with ASEAN countries. On the aspect of economy, South China Sea area is important place for trading and investment to the United States. Any conflict in this area influences its economy a lot, so ensuring security and stability in this region becomes the reason why the United States actively gets involved into the South China Sea to resolve disputes. On the aspect of military security, the United States expands and maintains its military supremacy by preventing the development of any military force in this region. South China Sea has been disputed for decades, the main topics are the territory and resources, but in recent years, disputes have become more international and complicated. With the stronger involvement of US in the South China Sea issue, the strategic intent of US becomes more obvious. The involvement of the United States has directly and indirectly influenced the situation in South China Sea and the development of the Asia-Pacific region.

Acrothoracican barnacles, also known as the boring barnacles, bores into the marine calcareous structures, including corals, gastropod and hermit crab shells, and the limestone rocks. At present, Kolbasov (2009) indicate acrothoracican barnacles consists of 65 species in 11 genera, three families and two orders of acrothoracican barnacles have been record worldwide. However, almost most of the studies in Acrothoracica were about its taxonomy. There were not many papers about its ecology. Diversity study of acorthoracican barnacles in Western Pacific Region is especially rare. In the past taxonomic studies in Taiwan, only Balanodytes taiwanus was described by Utinomi (1950) in Kaohsiung, and little information was known about the ecology and distribution pattern in Taiwan. This study focus on the identification and taxonomic studies of acrothoracican barnacles in the Western Pacific Region and South China Sea including Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Philippines. We found eight genera Balanodytes, Auritoglyptes, Berndtia, Kochlorine, Lithoglyptes, Weltneria, Trypetesa, Cryptophialus and 15 species. 4 new species were identified and with 7 new record for Taiwan.

The passive flux, a part of biological pump, is sinking organic matters produced by phytoplankton photosynthesis in the upper layer and escaped from regeneration in the euphotic zone. In addition, the vertical flux of dissolved organic matter (DOM) may be worth noting in the biological pump. Passive fluxes of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in the Northern South China Sea (NSCS) were respectively estimated to be 66.8±1.29 mg C m-2 d-1, 12.8±0.38 mg N m-2 d-1 and 0.99±0.07 mg P m-2 d-1 in the spring season, about 64.3±1.47 mg C m-2 d-1, 12.1±0.47 mg N m-2 d-1 and 0.93±0.04 mg P m-2 d-1 in the summer season, about 155±15.9 mg C m-2 d-1, 21.2±1.68 mg N m-2 d-1 and 1.79±0.19 mg P m-2 d-1 in an internal-waves induced event. The fluxes were also found to be 18.4~19.9 mg C m-2 d-1, 3.05~3.52 mg N m-2 d-1 and 0.29~0.38 mg P m-2 d-1 in the spring season in the Northwest Pacific (NP), and about 93.2 mg C m-2 d-1, 15.9 mg N m-2 d-1 and 0.97 mg P m-2 d-1 in a typhoon influenced event. Meanwhile, the organic carbon flux derived from the Vertical Generalized Production Model (VGPM) was 183±17 mg C m-2 d-1 in a winter anticyclonic eddy in NSCS. Passive fluxes of CNP were obviously enhanced by the special events (internal-waves and typhoons). Positive correlations were significant between the chlorophyll inventory and DIN inventory, and also significant between passive fluxes of CNP and DIN inventory in the euphotic zone. Thus, passive fluxes of CNP were apparently driven by primary production. The diffusion flux of DOM increased generally with depth and was enhanced obviously in the internal-waves condition. However, the DOM flux was not enhanced in a typhoon event. The proportions of CNP fluxes to the biological pump in NSCS are 66.5%, 74.3% and 71.3%, respectively, in regular spring, about 3.8±9.18%, 76.6±0.58% and 75.1±2.02%, respectively, in regular summer, and about 62.1%, 73.5% and 64.7%, respectively, in an internal-waves induced event, and about 62.6%, 65.6% and 64.7%, respectively, in regular spring in the NP. The passive flux accounts for the highest proportion of the biological pump. However, the proportion of DOM flux is insignificant in the biological pump.

South pacific island nations play important roles in cross-Strait diplomatic competition for a long time. Owing to the political conflicts between China and Taiwan, south pacific island nations get more interests by means of changing their diplomatic recognition. Focusing on the south pacific island nations’ domestic political factors, the influence of the parliament on island nations’ diplomatic choice is noteworthy. Moreover, Australia may have the greatest influence on island nations because it is the largest donor in the south pacific, its view on cross-Strait diplomatic competition also has a considerable influence on island nations’ diplomatic choice. This thesis will start from the point of view of the south pacific island nations to study the factors which influence on island nations’ choice when they face the diplomatic competition between China and Taiwan. In this thesis, the first step is to generalize the diplomatic relation history and current status between Taiwan and China with the south pacific island nations respectively. This thesis also discusses China, Taiwan and Australia’s policies and standpoints toward the south pacific, it includes, for example, the influence on a diplomatic truce between Taiwan and China after President Ma Ying-Jeou took office in 2008, and China changed its aid mode to island nations since 2005. Then, this thesis will conduct case studies of Nauru, Kiribati and Vanuatu to discuss the degree of influence when these island nations make diplomatic choices in three variables: personal and national interests, domestic political factors and external power factors. It is found from this thesis that in the cases of Nauru, Kiribati and Vanuatu, the greatest influence variable is personal and national interests, domestic political factors is secondary, and external power factors have significant influence only in Vanuatu case. These case studies may not represent all the south pacific island nations, but expecting generalize those three variables could become the standard of interpretation when we observe the island nations’ diplomatic choice in the future.

Abstract Since the end of the Cold War, the complexity of the South China Sea dispute is growing with the passing days. The United States puts her focus on Asia, and takes East Asia as the entry point to return to the Asia-Pacific, this region is the key of whether the PRC Navy could enter the Pacific across the second island chain, to compete with the United States. Therefore, in this article I’m going to discuss the strategic implications of the PRC deployed Marines on the South China Sea in Navy’s Western Pacific strategy, from the shift of the PRC Navy strategy after The Economic Reform. And analysis the PRC Marines’ function and strategic mission in South China Sea after vehicle renew and amphibious capability upgrade, in order to predict future trends. Studies shows that PRC naval strategy is transforming from "inshore defense" to the "regional ocean going Navy", also amphibious vehicles has been substantially modernized, from those increasing Marine Corps amphibious exercises, we can inferences that the PLA is developing three-dimensional combat capability . Keywords: Western Pacific, naval strategy, strategic view, marines, South China Sea.

Mesoscale eddies in the subtropical oligotrophic ocean are ubiquitous and play an important role in nutrient supply and oceanic primary production (PP). However, it is still unclear whether these mesoscale eddies can efficiently transfer CO2 from the atmosphere to deep waters via biological pump because of the sampling difficulty due to their transient nature. In May, 2007, particulate organic carbon fluxes (POCf), measured below the euphotic zone at the edge of warm eddy (WE) were 136–194 mg-C m−2 d−1 which was greatly elevated over that (POC flux = 26–35 mg-C m−2 d−1) determined in the nutrient-depleted oligotrophic waters in the Western North Pacific (WNP). In June and July, 2010, higher POCf (77–124 mg-C m−2 d−1) were also observed at the boundary of both WE and cold eddy (CE) in the WNP. The enhanced POCf at the edge of eddies was mainly attributed to both large phytoplankton (e.g. diatom) broken cells and zooplankton fecal pellets based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examination. In April and September, 2013 and May, 2014, researches were conducted in the South China Sea (SCS) for POCf measuring to better understand the effect of carbon pump in eddies (i.e. CE and WE). The POCf was not only higher in the CE than WE (50–166 and 15–25 mg-C m−2 d−1, respectively) but also in cores than edges in those eddies (CE: 73–166 and 50–53; WE: 25 and 15 mg-C m−2 d−1). Raised POCf of the CE’s core in the Bashi Channel could be followed by more nutrients injection in the core rather than the edge (nitrogen, phosphate and silicate inventories within the euphotic zone were 1155、78、1445 and 395、28、536 mmol m−2, respectively). The elevated POCf found in the core of CE at the SouthEast Asian Time-series Study (SEATS) may be attributed to the core effect on the specific station and its nearby water for a longer period. As to the higher POCf in the core than the edge at the SEATS was probably due to the considerable lateral advection caused by anticyclonic mechanisms of the WE. Based on the result of preliminary particles enumeration and identification, it was that the elevated POCf in CEs was contributed by numerous larger phytoplankton (i.e. diatom: Chaetoceras, Thalassiosira, Nitzschia, Asteromphalus, Coscinodiscus and Pleurosigma) according to their significant and positive relationship between the POCf, the abundance and the carbon content. Additionally, we also deployed a deep sediment trap array (at the depth of 150, 1000, 2000 and 3200 m) at SEATS to understand particle transporting efficiency to deep water. The sinking flux of POC were 25、18、16 and 15 mg-C m−2 d−1 at SEATS suggesting that particles could be largely stored in deep water because the e ratio (POCf / I-PP) did not show significantly change. Therefore, the persistent POCf in the WE was possibly due to active microbial loop (e.g. bacteria) and kept more POC in the refractory condition based on the result of preliminary particles enumeration with more bacteria-covered particles in the surface water of the WE’s core site (WE’s core and others were 32 and 7%, respectively). Moreover, the application of POCf, I-Chl a and I-PP (integrated chlorophyll-a and PP within the euphotic zone) to estimate the quantification of biological pump in the subtropical oligotrophic ocean was reliable in accordance with a strong and positive correlation between ratios of POCf / I-Chl a and export ratio. In conclusion, our result stand in the opposite side to the previous study that the POC flux of the eddy is not important and insignificant in the subtropical Pacific Ocean based on our field observations. The result suggests that mesoscale eddies in the oligotrophic waters, such as the subtropical WNP and SCS, can efficiently increase the oceanic carbon export flux. The edge and core of eddies in the WNP and SCS, respectively, act as a crucial conduit in carbon sequestration to deep waters.
