Due to the characteristics of the physical mechanical properties of soft ground, reasonable foundation treatments are usually necessary before it meets the need of foundation deformation and load requirements. How to choose a reasonable foundation treatment method which has obvious virtues of economical expenditure and shorter construction period is an urgent problem emerging in engineering construction in the Pearl River Delta. While drainage sand well is used widely in soft soil foundation treatment in the Pearl River Delta. In this paper, a simplified calculation method is proposed to calculate the strength of soft soil foundation treated by sand well after drainage consolidation.

The behavior of particle migration on soft soil foundation in Pearl River Delta region is analyzed considering the mesoscopic dynamic with vacuum preloading method. The numerical predictions are compared with the fine particle data in terms of settlements, horizontal displacements and vacuum degree of horizontal preloading. The repercussions of including the displacements law of fine particles are also studied. It is found that the analysis considering displacements law results in consolidation by rose diagram of particle migration, which is related to the consolidation of the vacuum preloading of soft soil foundation in Pearl River Delta region. It is apparently inconsistent with the vacuum preloading of the drainage which results from the fine particles migration, but it is fully justified by the fact that the real soil consolidation coordinates corrected for rose diagram obtained.

AbstractThe Guangdong Xinhui National Wetland Park (GXNWP) in the Pearl River Delta is an important stopover for migratory birds in China and East Asia. Due to high levels of interference, high sensitivity and fragile environmental constraints, an efficient method to assess the health status of wetland parks such as the GXNWP is urgently needed for sustainable development. In this study, we proposed a habitat-landscape-service (HLS) conceptual model that can be used at the site scale to evaluate health status in terms of habitats, landscapes and services by considering the complex ecosystem of wetland parks. This HLS model included 28 evaluation indicators, and the indicator weights and health-grade divisions were based on expert scores using both the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy comprehension evaluation (FCE) methods. The results showed that the health status of the GXNWP was at the “subhealthy” level, with a membership function of 0.4643. This study found that habitat indicators (0.5715) were the key factors affecting the GXNWP health status, followed by service indicators (0.2856) and landscape indicators (0.1429). The HLS-AHP-FCE method provides a holistic health evaluation indicator system and diagnostic approach for rapidly developing wetland parks in the Pearl River Delta, China.

Water pollution can be monitored through the use of indicator species, including Brachionus calyciflorus. To do this, it is necessary to understand the species’ population ecology. Four surveys of zooplankton were conducted in May, August, and December 2018 and February 2019 in the Pearl River Delta, China, to examine the population characteristics of B. calyciflorus. The temporal and spatial distribution of abundance, biomass, dominance, and occurrence frequency were compared with those from 2012 to investigate the relationship between changes in the population of B. calyciflorus and environmental factors. The average abundance, dominance, and occurrence of B. calyciflorus in this survey were significantly higher than those of 2012 in all seasons. Principal component analysis showed that environmental factors such as the temperature, transparency, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus of water had a major impact on the abundance of B. calyciflorus. There was a significant positive correlation with transparency, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus of water, and a very significant positive correlation with water temperature. Overall, these results demonstrated that the distribution characteristics of B. calyciflorus can reflect pollution in water bodies and can be used to evaluate water quality. These research results provide a reference for evaluating China’s river health and can help to manage water quality in the Pearl River Delta.
