Abstract-Based on the strategic vision of the Chinese government to build the new Silk Road Economic Belt. This paper aims to discuss the new Sustainable development scenario in Syria, according to "shaped: 廾 Gǒng: hands joined". SWOT analysis of the information collected for proposing a new development axes that constitute a schematic depth of the coastal region. Thus, to be the base to lead the development process and reconstruction in the future due to local and international properties. Also, to keep pace the strategy of "One Belt One Road" as one of the most important cross-border development axes in this century. The goals are to the creation and development of urban communities through the Sustainable Structure. Targeted range of inner and border cities by the concept "Hub & Gateway". Thus, forming an integrated economic belt to attract investments to inward regions, and provide access to energy sources detections in the coastal region. The results show that proposal scenario presents one of the most important up-down strategies for alternative spatial regional development plans in Syria after the war.

“…In addition, Zhang L. et al (2018) quantified the mortality effects of future heat waves on human health; they found that the average annual loss of the elders (≥65) would be 1,675 deaths per million in Guangzhou during 2051-2095 under RCP. Climate warming will induce extreme disastrous impacts to coastal cities, such as a sea level rise, the expansion of storm surge inundation areas, and ecosystem degradation of coastal wetlands, mangroves, and reefs (He et al, 2012;Rahmoun et al, 2016). He et al (2012) assessed the sea level rising in China; the investigation illustrated that the sea level in Guangdong rose by 20 mm during 2001-2010 relative to 1991-2000.…”

A heat wave is an important meteorological extreme event related to global warming, but little is known about the characteristics of future heat waves in Guangdong. Therefore, a stepwise-clustered simulation approach driven by multiple global climate models (i.e., GCMs) is developed for projecting future heat waves over Guangdong under two representative concentration pathways (RCPs). The temporal-spatial variations of four indicators (i.e., intensity, total intensity, frequency, and the longest duration) of projected heat waves, as well as the potential changes in daily maximum temperature (i.e., Tmax) for future (i.e., 2006–2095) and historical (i.e., 1976–2005) periods, were analyzed over Guangdong. The results indicated that Guangdong would endure a notable increasing annual trend in the projected Tmax (i.e., 0.016–0.03°C per year under RCP4.5 and 0.027–0.057°C per year under RCP8.5). Evaluations of the multiple GCMs and their ensemble suggested that the developed approach performed well, and the model ensemble was superior to any single GCM in capturing the features of heat waves. The spatial patterns and interannual trends displayed that Guangdong would undergo serious heat waves in the future. The variations of intensity, total intensity, frequency, and the longest duration of heat wave are likely to exceed 5.4°C per event, 24°C, 25 days, and 4 days in the 2080s under RCP8.5, respectively. Higher variation of those would concentrate in eastern and southwestern Guangdong. It also presented that severe heat waves with stronger intensity, higher frequency, and longer duration would have significant increasing tendencies over all Guangdong, which are expected to increase at a rate of 0.14, 0.83, and 0.21% per year under RCP8.5, respectively. Over 60% of Guangdong would suffer the moderate variation of heat waves to the end of this century under RCP8.5. The findings can provide decision makers with useful information to help mitigate the potential impacts of heat waves on pivotal regions as well as ecosystems that are sensitive to extreme temperature.
