It was a new attempt to solve the shortage of regional land resources. Aiming at the problem that the influence of extreme rainstorms on the &#8220;Gully Land Consolidation Project&#8221;(GLCP) on the Loess Plateau.By using the method of actual measurement and analysis of categorical data, the erosion disaster in July 26 2017 was investigated in Niu Xue Gully of Wuding River Watershed in Zizhou County of the Central part of the Loess Plateau. The results showed :&#160;(1) The Niu Xue Gully Small Watershed in Zizhou County (109&#176;55'25"E, 37&#176;39'46"N), which was located in the central part of the Loess Plateau and belonged to the northern Shaanxi Loess Hilly-Gully region. The Niu Xuegou catchment covered an area of 0.48 km2 and the average altitude of the region in about 1000-1200 meters, land consolidation in the basin about 38 mu&#65288;25333.3m2&#65289;since 2014.(2) This storm was characterized by "long duration and large precipitation", the accumulated rainfall was 147.9 mm, the average rainfall intensity was 13.45 mm/h, the maximum rainfall intensity was close to 5 mm/min, the maximum flood peak discharge was 44.64 m3/s, the flood duration was about 11 hours, and the flood recurrence period was more than once in a hundred years.(3) The storm caused nearly a thousand geological hazards at the channel of the basin. The main types of disasters were as follows, gravity erosion types, such as landslides, landslides, and mudflows, account for 14.85% of the conventional geological hazards; secondary disasters of water erosion types, such as trench erosion and dam erosion, occurring at different locations on the slope, accounted for 51.05% and composite new-derived land destruction and dam break disasters account for nearly 10% .(4) The damage of cascade land preparation was closely related to the average flood discharge, embankment height and ecological vegetation cover in the watershed. The investigation provided technical support for the consolidation of the Chinese implementation of the "Cropland to Forest (Grass)" results on the Loess Plateau, and also provided theoretical support for the safe implementation of the &#8220;Gully Land Consolidation Project&#8221;(GLCP) around the world.

Lake Skadar

Abstract Traditional architecture is one of the most important segments in the preservation and development of cultural identity. The Lake Skadar region abounds in examples of vernacular building activity that provide the clearest evidence of the creation of settlements and houses as a result of adaptation to natural environment. The study of vernacular architecture on the shores of Lake Skadar is related to the identification and potential evaluation of its local traditional features, as ecological building forms which express the principle of sustainability. Within the framework of research on vernacular architecture of this area, analysis is undertaken with the aim of defining guidelines for revitalizing traditional settlements in this region. In this respect the emphasis of this work is on recognizing the potential and possible directions in revitalization of cultural heritage of traditional settlements in keeping with the principles of sustainable development.

Land Consolidation Project

In order to study of the sandy soil use in the North China plain concerning land consolidation and water-saving techniques, the lack of sandy land groundwater resources, groundwater drainage of the land consolidation project due to a lack of resources basis, blind investment and consolidation benefits, also undermine the structure of the groundwater system. This paper took Wangyangxing village in Zaoqiang county, Hengshui City that first carried out, based on the water resource constraints of land consolidation project as example for site evaluation, and then the land consolidation of water-saving technology and the land consolidation process design theory was used. Hengshui City is one of parts of the sandy soil of agricultural land for a pilot study to explore the effectiveness of suitable sandy soil of agricultural land, land consolidation in the North China Plain for the full scientific utilization of water resources to improve the efficiency of the sandy soil land use and the basis.
