Zhang, L.G.; Yi, K., and Zhang, D., 2020. The Classification of Environmental Crisis in the Perspective of Risk Communication: A Case Study of Coastal Risk in Mainland China. In: Guido Aldana, P.A. and Kantamaneni, K. (eds.), Advances in Water Resources, Coastal Management, and Marine Science Technology. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 104, pp. 88–93. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. This study explores the classification of environmental crisis in order to improve the policy maker, public's environmental literacy, boost to the individuals' perception of complex scientific information on coastal crisis in the case of Chinese coastal problems. It investigates how to classify the environmental crisis on the dimension of crisis source, crisis form, crisis information diffusion, crisis assessment, crisis response. An ANP method was conducted to collect interviews data to evaluate the coastal crisis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Wang, C. and Yi, K., 2020. Impact of spatial scale of ocean views architecture on tourist experience and empathy mediation based on "SEM-ANP" combined analysis. In: Yang, Y.; Mi, C.; Zhao, L., and Lam, S. (eds.), Global Topics and New Trends in Coastal Research: Port, Coastal and Ocean Engineering. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 103, pp. 1125–1129. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. In this study, we have first set up the relational model on the spatial scale of ocean views architecture, tourist emotion, perspective taking and comprehensive evaluation of tourist experience based on the "SEM-ANP" research method. Subsequently, we have proposed the feature of elements, selection of paths and relation of weights applicable to the evaluation of ocean views architecture. Finally, we have carried out the empirical test on our proposal. The results show that: (1) Empathy has a mediating effect on "spatial scale of ocean views construction - comprehensive evaluation of tourist experience"; (2) It is necessary to fully investigate the characteristics of tourist mood and perspective taking during ocean views construction; (3) The "four-step" strategy can be adopted in the evaluation of ocean views construction. In the end, we have put forward the coping measures for evaluating ocean views construction that take into account both the spatial design and the psychological characteristics of tourists subsequent to our study on the influence of the spatial scale of ocean views architecture on the tourist experience.

Yi, K.; Zhang, D.; Cheng, H.; Mao, X., and Su, Q., 2020. SEM and K-means analysis of the perceived value factors and clustering features of Marine Film-induced tourists: A case study of tourists to Taipei. In: Yang, Y.; Mi, C.; Zhao, L., and Lam, S. (eds.), Global Topics and New Trends in Coastal Research: Port, Coastal and Ocean Engineering. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 103, pp. 1120–1124. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. This paper used structural equation model to integrate factors of consumers' perceived value and industrial support into a holistic framework for analyzing Marine film-induced tourism. It conducted an in-depth analysis of factors that affect consumers' perception of the Marine film-induced tourism. After extracting five factors, the paper took them as a basis to classify consumers of Marine film-induced tourism, in which K-means clustering was applied. The research showed that the consumption groups of Marine film-induced tourism could be divided into four types: enthusiastic supporters, rational supporters, contradictory supporters and indifferent supporters. It was concluded that the practical value brought by the development of Marine film-induced tourism had most influence on consumers' judgement; all kinds of consumers were positive about the development of Marine film-induced tourism among the consumer groups. Compared with film and television practitioners, the tourism practitioners were more willing to see the combination of film and television industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
