Yangzi Jiang

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 揚子江／扬子江 (Yángzǐ Jiāng).

The most important inland water transport takes place along three great rivers, the Xi-jiang (West River) by Guangzhou (Canton); the Yangzi Jiang, which links Shanghai, Wuhan and Chongqing (Chungking); and the Songhua Jiang (Sungari) which passes through Ha’erbin (Harbin) in the north-east.

1979, Ronald Francis Price, Education in Modern China, Routledge & Kegan Paul, →OCLC, page 93

The second of China’s best-known rivers, the Yangzi Jiang (also known as the Chang Jiang), is fed by a number of tributaries that rise from that central massif that lies to the west. Crossing the Sichuan basin, the Yangzi strides across succeeding provinces in an easterly direction, finally reaching the sea close to Shanghai.

1990, Michael Loewe, “The Gifts of Nature and their Problems”, in The Pride that was China (Sidgwick & Jackson Great Civilizations Series), →LCCN, →OCLC, page 3

Lop Nur

From Uyghur لوپنۇر (lopnur), from Written Oirat ᠯᠣ᠊ᠫ
ᠨᡇᡇᠷ (Lob nuur), from ᠯᠣ᠊ᠫ (Lob) + ᠨᡇᡇᠷ (nuur, “lake”), where the former is itself of unknown origin from older times. Compare Mandarin 羅布淖爾／罗布淖尔 (Luóbùnào'ěr), 羅布泊／罗布泊 (Luóbù pō, “Lop Lake”).

Kennedy at the time was greatly concerned over reports that the Chinese Communists were secretly conducting nuclear explosions at Lop Nor in Northwest China—a sure indication they were working on atomic weapons. This was the period when Moscow and Peking were still close to each other, otherwise it might have been possible for the United States to devise a way to neutralize Peking's nuclear potential at an early stage. At their meeting Kennedy asked Chen many questions about Lop Nor. Could he have been thinking of a preventive surgical strike?]

[1983, James C. H. Shen, “Rejoining the Government”, in Robert Myers, editor, The U.S. & Free China: How the U.S. Sold Out Its Ally, Washington, D.C.: Acropolis Books Ltd., →LCCN, →OCLC, page 39

It also seems apparent that he fought with the Red tribes against Germany. His symbol was found by Sven Hedin even as far away as in Lop Nur in China (see Figs. 45-48).

2016 [1924], Hermann Wieland, translated by Gregory Klanderud, Atlantis, Edda & Bible, Hermitage Helm, →OCLC, page 203

Many visitors to Xīnjiāng will experience this huge expanse during their travels or can arrange camel-trekking tours and expeditions through its vast sand dunes. China’s biggest shifting salt lake, Lop Nur (the site of China’s nuclear bomb tests) is also here.

2015 May, Damian Harper et al., China (Lonely Planet), →OCLC, page 982

U.S. concerns about Beijing’s possible breaches of a “zero yield” standard for test blasts have been prompted by activities at China’s Lop Nur nuclear test site throughout 2019, the State Department report said.
Zero yield refers to a nuclear test in which there is no explosive chain reaction of the type ignited by the detonation of a nuclear warhead.
“China’s possible preparation to operate its Lop Nur test site year-round, its use of explosive containment chambers, extensive excavation activities at Lop Nur and a lack of transparency on its nuclear testing activities ... raise concerns regarding its adherence to the zero yield standard,” the report said without providing evidence of a low-yield test.

Yangjingbang

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 洋涇浜／洋泾浜 (Yángjīngbāng).

Holonym: Shanghai

Some of the famous inns like the Taian Inn and the Qianyi Inn located in the Jiaji Long (lane) to the north of Yangjingbang (the present Yanan Road, East) started their business in a lane.

1985, Jia You, “GENERAL ASPECTS OF STREET-LANES IN SHANGHAI”, in Min Dayong, transl., Anecdotes of Old Shanghai, 1st edition, Shanghai Cultural Publishing House, →OCLC, page 137

The French Concession lay between the walled Chinese city and Yang-ching-pang Creek, later filled in and called Edward VII Avenue. The British Settlement stretched from Yang-ching-pang to Soochow Creek while the American settlement consisted of a piece of land fronting the river to the north-east of Soochow Creek.]

[1990, Harriet Sergeant, “A Simple Equation – The Rise of a Great City”, in Shanghai: Collision Point of Cultures, 1918-1939, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 18

Rows of simply constructed, single-story wooden houses appeared literally overnight along the Bund, in the northwest part of the British Settlement, as well as on the banks of Yangjingbang, the creek that separated the British and French settlements.

In 1864, Sir McDonald Stephenson, an eminent British engineer, arrived in China to impress the advantages of railways on China, but his scheme was pigeonholed. The next scheme was the Woosung Railway, from Shanghai on the Huangpu river to Woosung at its mouth, a distance of 12 miles.

Songhua

Borrowed from the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation of 松花 (sōnghuā) in 松花江 (Sōnghuā Jiāng).

The water quality of the Songhua River (Northeast China) was of concern, especially in the 1980s and early 1990s, and there were many studies carried out on this aspect. However, only one or several independent water quality indices were used to consider the effects of pollutants on the water quality, for instance, heavy metal and toxic organic pollutants. The combined effects of multiple indices were seldom studied. In this article, based on the environmental monitoring data, the water quality of the Songhua River was analyzed using factor analysis, which comprehensively considered six indices of water quality of each monitoring section.

Apr 2003, Yu, S. et al., “Factor Analysis and Dynamics of Water Quality of the Songhua River, Northeast China”, in Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, volume 144, number 1, pages 159–169

The reports, including some from the official Xinhua news agency, suggested that officials here and in Jilin Province, where the disaster occurred 380 kilometers, or 235 miles, up the Songhua River, lied or told only part of the story until they had no choice but to admit the truth.[…]
"They were trying to lie and get by," said Qi Guangzhong, 64, as he walked along the Songhua River on Friday. "The government wanted to hide this."

The study site of the Songhua River is located in the Heilongjiang Province on the territory of Northern China. The Songhua flows from south west to northeast near the center of Harbin, having a length of about 50 km within the city. The Songhua is a plains river with a sandy bottom and meandering bed. The fairway width ranges from 400 to 800 m, depth from 2 to 12 m. Bottom sediments of the Songhua nearby Harbin, as compared to other rivers and lakes of Northern China, contain particularly high concentrations of Pb, Zn and Ni, as well as appreciable levels of Cd and As [6, 12].

[1739 [1735], P. Du Halde, “Geographical Obſervations on the Kingdom of Corea”, in The General History Of China, 2nd edition, volume IV, →OCLC, page 391

The Tumen river separates Corea from Manchooria, except in the last few miles of its course, when it flows by Russian territory, the south-eastern corner of Siberia. The Yalu river also divides Corea from Manchooria.

1895, Trumbull White, The War in the East Japan, China, and Corea, Philadelphia: P.W. Ziegler & Co., →OCLC, →OL, page 374

More recently, work has been opened in a town on the Yalu River, about 500 miles by boat from Dairen.

1935, A. W. Yocum, “From Dairen, Manchuria-Organized 1925”, in Annual of the Southern Baptist Convention, Memphis, TN, page 206

In an effort to limit the war to the borders of Korea, the United Nations forces were prohibited by political directive from firing across the Yalu River—a prohibition which made a sanctuary of Manchurian territory.

1963, Dwight Eisenhower, Mandate for Change 1953-1956, Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 176

Soon after the start of the Russian-instigated North Korean invasion of South Korea in June 1950, Peiping sent 200,000 “volunteers” across the Yalu.

1973 May 27, “Mao still embraces Stalin cult”, in Free China Weekly, volume XIV, number 20, Taipei, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 2

By this time, Kim II Sung already had the assurances of the Chinese that they would not allow his government to fall without a fight. So he retreated to Sinuiju, on the Korean side of the Yalu, just across from the Manchurian industrial center of Antung, and shouted curses over the radio waves at the United Nations, President Syngman Rhee, and the United States.

1984, Edwin P. Hoyt, “To the Yalu”, in On to the Yalu, New York: Stein and Day, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 247

Positioned near the mouth of the Yalu River, Dandong is China’s largest border town, and much of North Korea’s trade with the world flows across its old bridges or through its deepwater port.

The Tumen river separates Corea from Manchooria, except in the last few miles of its course, when it flows by Russian territory, the south-eastern corner of Siberia.

The Tumen is not yet so important as the Yalu, but with the development of a rival to Vladivostock, now a closed port, in Hunchun, it is acquiring greater importance.

1910, The Provinces of China, Together with a History of the First Year of H.I.M. Hsuan Tung, and an Account of the Government of China, Shanghai: The National Review Office, →OCLC, →OL, page 155

Springing northeast from Paektu, the cold Tumen River separates Korea from eastern Manchuria and Siberia. On the Yalu and along the swift-flowing tributaries of the Tumen stand the Japanese-built hydroelectric plants which, until the power lines were cut by the Communists at the 38th parallel, provided 90% of the electricity used in all Korea.

1950 July 24, “Background for War”, in Time, volume LVI, number 4, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 30

A ride along the Chinese shore of the Tumen River illustrated its potential for development.
