Smaller ports’ evolution towards catalysing sustainable hinterland development

ABSTRACT

From simple organizations as gateways for goods and passengers, ports have evolved and transformed into complex organizational systems with multiple functions. Besides providing cargo, logistics, and other kinds of services to its customers, modern ports engage in the development of their hinterlands. Sustainability, evolving from environmental actions over the years, has become the core of many modern ports’ approach towards hinterland development and port competitiveness. While the literature is concerned with and presents examples of large ports implementing sustainability initiatives, the literature is scarce on smaller ports. This article addresses this gap by exploring qualitatively the case of the Port of Aalborg, a medium-sized port in Denmark, and its evolution towards using sustainability for port and hinterland development. The research focuses on the actions behind environmental development at the port. Its evolution is mapped and explored using the analytical framework developed based on the (larger) ports’ development and their roles. The findings from the Port of Aalborg case exemplify how smaller ports can evolve to drive the sustainable development of their hinterlands and contribute to a better understanding of this kind of port.     

真空轻型井点降水在深埋隧道未成岩富水粉细砂层施工中的应用

真空轻型井点降水在基坑和浅埋隧道施工中应用较多,但很少在深埋隧道中应用,对其降水效果也难以判断。依托兰渝铁路桃树坪隧道洞内降水工程,通过降水管如何设计与施工对真空轻型井点在洞内降水进行了研究。实践证明轻型井点降水在深埋隧道能够达到无水施工的效果,保证了隧道开挖过程中的砂层自稳,并对后续施工提出了改进建议。对类似工程具有参考意义。     

Urban mass transit,gender planning protocols and social sustainability – The case of Jakarta

The discussion within a number of Global South cities is increasingly focused on the planning and implementation of large-scale urban mass transport systems. There is, however, a significant challenge of delivering such large investments in a manner to produce equity in the benefits across different urban spaces and across different social groupings. The transaction costs of urban survival and its associated urban mobility and their differences across gender and other social groups may work against the hypothesised distribution of benefits predicted from traditional individualistic, utility-maximising rational choice planning models. This may affect the social sustainability of such large-scale investments. There is a need for new methods and protocols in transport planning and management to ensure that such transport systems promote social sustainability. The mainstreaming of gender into the planning, financing, implementation, operation and management of such large-scale urban transport systems is a fundamental component for tackling the challenges facing the delivery of social sustainability. This paper will look at a case study of the Jabotabek Suburban Rail and Bus Rapid Transit systems in Jakarta as examples of large-scale mass transit investment. It will draw on survey research that highlights the gender differences in the use of this large urban transport system, gender differences in how the system interacts with geographies of opportunities and daily travel patterns, gender differences in the impact of the systems operation on passenger safety and security. It will highlight the need for new gender and user group protocols in the planning, implementation and management of urban mass-transit systems. It will provide some concrete examples of what measures would arise from such new planning protocols.

交通基础设施是城市发展的必要条件,也是制约城市发展的主要因素之一. 近几年,我国市政交通基础设施建设投资额不断提高,规模和建设速度不断增长,但是由于多种原因,我国市政交通基础设施没有发挥应有的功能. 本文针对市政公用交通设施建设项目的现状,结合建设项目后评价理论,分析了市政交通设施建设项目及项目后评价的特点,提出了市政公用设施建设项目后评价的内容体系,并以圆明园西路交通基础设施改造建设工程为例,对该项目的全过程,实施效果,目标和可持续性进行后评价.     

Marine Social Science for the Peopled Seas

Coastal communities, indigenous peoples, and small-scale fishers rely on the ocean for livelihoods, for subsistence, for wellbeing and for cultural continuity. Thus, understanding the human dimensions of the world’s peopled seas and coasts is fundamental to evidence-based decision-making across marine policy realms, including marine conservation, marine spatial planning, fisheries management, the blue economy and climate adaptation. This perspective article contends that the marine social sciences must inform the pursuit of sustainable oceans. To this end, the article introduces this burgeoning field and briefly reviews the insights that social science can offer to guide ocean and coastal policy and management. The upcoming United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030) provides a tremendous opportunity to build on the current interest, need for and momentum in the marine social sciences. We will be missing the boat if the marine social sciences do not form an integral and substantial part of the mandate and investments of this global ocean science for sustainability initiative.

Exploring the conditions for inclusive port development: the case of Indonesia

Governments around the world are adopting inclusive growth agendas. The ambition to align economic growth ambitions with broader-based social benefits is increasingly embraced by corporations to limit the ‘negative externalities’ and enhance the ‘positive externalities’ of their operations. Therefore, micro-level corporate strategies and macro-level national ambitions meet at the meso-level of networks and clusters. This requires societal spheres to collaborate and search for alternative governance constellations. In this discourse, port development is only recently receiving attention. In March 2018, ports around the world signed the World Ports Sustainability Program declaration, which aims to contribute to the sustainable development goals (SDGs), whilst a number of national port (master) plans have started to include social along with environmental standards. Extant studies on partnering and stakeholder inclusion in port development are proliferating but are primarily aimed at environmental rather than social (inclusion) issues. This paper adopts an exploratory research design to consider conditions for inclusive port development. A novel taxonomy considers port development as a driver for inclusive growth, where partnerships are the missing link between micro-level business strategies and macro-level effects in the port region and economy at large. This paper shows the first findings and delineates areas for further research.     

城市轨道交通场站周边土地开发模式的效益分析

按不同开发主体将城市轨道交通场站周边土地开发模式划分为两种:房地产企业为主导和城市轨道交通企业为主导;分别构建了政府视角下的土地开发模式的经济效益测算模型,对比不同模式下的轨道交通线路盈亏、城市轨道交通场站周边土地开发收益和政府的效益;最后,以某地铁线为例,设定一次性收益与持续性收益两种土地开发情形进行案例分析。研究结果表明:一次性收益情形下,由轨道交通企业主导开发时,可通过建设用地面积达10.96万m²的潜力地块的开发收益和部分税收金额反哺运营亏损,年均政府经济效益为2.40亿元。持续性收益情形下,在线路运营初期、近期、远期,轨道交通企业主导开发模式下的年均政府经济效益均优于房地产企业主导开发模式,且轨道交通企业主导开发几乎可实现自负盈亏,政府在线路运营初期、近期、远期分别只需支出23.65%、20.75%、16.74%的税收金额用于补贴。
