Soil Pollution Risk Assessment and Comprehensive Prevention Strategy for Major Agricultural Producing Areas in North China

Cities located in the transitional zone between Taihang Mountains and North China plain run high flood risk in recent years, especially urban waterlogging risk. In this paper, we take Shijiazhuang, which is located in this transitional zone, as the study area and proposed a new flood risk assessment model for this specific geographical environment. Flood risk assessment indicator factors are established by using the digital elevation model (DEM), along with land cover, economic, population, and precipitation data. A min-max normalization method is used to normalize the indices. An analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method is used to determine the weight of each normalized index and the geographic information system (GIS) spatial analysis tool is adopted for calculating the risk map of flood disaster in Shijiazhuang. This risk map is consistent with the reports released by Hebei Provincial Water Conservancy Bureau and can provide reference for flood risk management.

Pollution Research

Urban soil is a compositional part of urban ecosystem playing a vital role in urban sustainable development for it functions importantly in ecological, environmental and economical area and it is urban pollutants’ source and concourse. This paper systematically concludes and expounds a series of research achievements about soil heavy mental contamination, micro-organic material pollution, the environmental and healthy risk assessment of urban soil pollution of domestic and foreign research in recent 10 years. The development focus and tendency of urban soil pollution research are provided on this base for supplying vital scientific clues for improving urban ecological environment.
