Ship emissions accounting in the port of Singapore – a preliminary analysis on the crude oil tanker segment by Tan, Lovine Nin

“…Furthermore in early 2022, the Ministry of Transport announced the Maritime Singapore Decarbonisation Blueprint 2050, which included measures specifically related to emissions in Singapore ports, as well as an investment of at least $300 million to reduce emissions in the maritime industry. Thus, the findings of this port emissions research study will be a very interesting and relevant data set for key decision-makers and industry players to understand the emission patterns generated by crude oil tankers in Singapore port.…”

Stylistic reproduction in the English version of Winter Pasture from the perspective of the stylistic markers theory by Liu, Yunyue

“…Based on the Stylistic Markers Theory by Liu Miqing, the author of this paper classifies the style of Winter Pasture according to the features of formal markers and conducts a comparative study with qualitative analyses. And this paper finds that the translators use various modes to transfer different formal markers, including onomatopoeic words at the phonological level, the Romanised Kazakh vocabularies and the language of Kazakh grammar at the register level, meaningful punctuation at the syntactic level, the skilful uses of loose sentences and harmonious parallel sentences at the textural level, and the detailed colour words at the lexical level. …”

Spontaneous charge transfer doping of transition metal dichalcogenides via ruthenium(III) chloride by Yeo, Think-E

“…We then use electrical gating to determine the doping density in the TMDs due to the spontaneous charge transfer. Our findings revealed that hole doping in TMDs led to the formation of trions under photoexcitation, as evident from the trion response detected in the reflection contrast spectroscopy performed on molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2). …”

Targeting NAPE-PLD: assessing its potential in the fight against malaria by Goh, Xiu Ling

“…Docking analysis indicated stronger LEI-401 binding affinity for CEPT than P. falciparum NAPE-PLD proteins, supporting CEPT’s involvement in lipid metabolism as a viable target. These findings suggest that while NAPE-PLD may not be a primary target of LEI-401, CEPT offers potential as an alternate target. …”
