ESSP, wall eye knee
Sunday, November 12th, 2006The second and third day in ESSP.
Parellel Session 22. 平行会议22,老板在讲,下面的我们,以及一楼的Posters

A journal to Great Wall. 八达岭长城部分,注意,那三个字是启功先生的。现在来看,奥运会的气氛已经越来越浓了,旁边的鸟巢和水立方已见雏形,一路上还看见一些体育场所(自行车场馆),八达岭长城上面大大的One World,One Dream的牌子还是很吸引目光的。
I think you will be puzzled about my poster title. The three key works are wall, eye and knee, which are important in climbing the Great Wall. The high wall guard the old empire. When you climb the wall, you will keep your eyes watching the wonderful views and your knees will shake because of the craggedness of road (How hard a horse climb such road with heavy things). In Chinese, the three words’ pronunciation is very close to “wo ai ni” (I LOVE YOU, in English). Interesting, right?
匆匆忙忙,总共才听了三个平行会议,不过收获了一大堆资料和发现了一堆差距,还有一些信息我还要查一下再写在后续的报道中。


first book of its kind that addresses the issues of global change from a perspective of Earth as a system, The Earth System offers a solid emphasis on lessons from Earth history that may guide decision-making in the future. This book teaches global change and how it affects our environment. Modern topics covered by this comprehensive book are the atmosphere and global warming, the circulation of the oceans, plate tectonics, ecosystems, the origin of Earth and life, the rise of oxygen and ozone depletion, biodiversity, and climate stability. Because of its incredibly detailed appendices, tables, and suggestions for further reading, this will make an excellent reference work for geologists, oceanographers, meteorologists, and geographers.
