Erratum for “Safety Risks and Protection Measures for City Wall during Construction and Operation of Xi’an Metro” by Junling Qiu, Yiwen Qin, Zhihua Feng, Lixin Wang, and Ke Wang

Due to the particularity of the ancient city wall, the collapse damage of ancient city wall earthen ruins is different from general soil slope failure. Through on-site observations and theoretical analysis, collapse failure process and mechanism of ancient city wall earthen sites under the action of capillary water is studied, and protection measures are proposed. Collapse failure process of earthen sites under the action of capillary water has the characteristics of particularity, diversity and stage. Capillary water reduces the stability of ancient city wall by changing the soil physical properties, chemical and ice split role. Finally, the effect of capillary water is illustrated through a specific project example.

Effective System

The paper considers monitoring of environmental change as the central element of environmental regulation. Monitoring, as each kind of principalagent relations, easily gives rise to corruptive behavior. In the paper we analyze economic models of environmental monitoring with high costs, incomplete information and corruption. These models should be the elements of environmental economics and are needed to create an effective system of nature protection measures.

Vector Criterion

The article offers a method for assessing the environmental risk in the territories adjacent to the planning zone of emergency protection measures around the NPP. The method is based on simulation modeling of territory pollution, which is formed at the late stage of a radiation accident and zoning of territories by risk, taking into account the characteristics of the population’s life in a potentially dangerous territory. A vector criterion of environmental risk is proposed that allows zoning these territories according to the degree of danger to the population.
