Abstract:
... Because of changing policy circumstances, international photovoltaic (PV) trade is increasingly complex with multi-pole trade cooperation., which makes it necessary to determine its trade mechanism taking local inter-cooperation as the perspective. Unlike the traditional topic of ‘what trade patterns are shown’, this work studies ‘how trade patterns work’. Therefore, functional trade patterns (FTP ...

Abstract:
... Late Paleolithic sites are widely distributed in southern China (the Lingnan region), which mainly includes Guangxi, Guangdong and Hainan Provinces. Although the pebble-tool industry continued to exist in this region during the late Pleistocene and Holocene, small flake-tool assemblages also occurred and coexisted with the pebble-tool industry. The pebble-tool industries are characterized by unifa ...

Abstract:
... This paper proposes a demographic history of China in the last glacial cycle. This history is complex because China lies in both the Palearctic and Oriental biographic realms, and experienced several immigration events before H. sapiens. Immigration by our species into the Oriental Realm of south China from southeast Asia probably began as early as 80,000 years ago. North China has a different his ...

Abstract:
... Improved hydrodynamic design of a Horizontal Axis Tidal Turbine (HATT) blade is key to increasing the efficiency and annual power production of the turbine. One of the crucial stages in hydrodynamic design is the selection of the 2D cross-section (hydrofoil) of the blade. Selecting the hydrofoils for a blade design that results in superior turbine characteristics for a given flow condition is tedi ...

Abstract:
... In tropics, especially Southeast Asia (SEA), heat wave (HW) research is seriously scarce although several global studies have projected this region to be greatly susceptible to increasing HW events under climate change scenarios. Using the recently released ERA5 reanalysis data, we find that in most parts of SEA, HWs are becoming more frequent, longer-lasting and stronger, no matter using dry-bulb ...
