Synoptic analysis of a decade of daily measurements of SO2 emission in the troposphere from volcanoes of the global ground-based network for observation of volcanic and atmospheric... by Arellano, Santiago, Galle, Bo, Apaza, Fredy, Avard, Geoffroy, Barrington, Charlotte, Bobrowski, Nicole, Bucarey, Claudia, Burbano, Viviana, Burton, Mike, Chacón, Zoraida, Chigna, Gustavo, Clarito, Christian Joseph, Conde, Vladimir, Costa, Fidel, De Moor, Maarten, Delgado-Granados, Hugo, Di Muro, Andrea, Fernandez, Deborah, Garzón, Gustavo, Gunawan, Hendra, Haerani, Nia, Hansteen, Thor. H., Hidalgo, Silvana, Inguaggiato, Salvatore, Johansson, Mattias, Kern, Christoph, Kihlman, Manne, Kowalski, Philippe, Masias, Pablo, Montalvo, Francisco, Möller, Joakim, Platt, Ulrich, Rivera, Claudia, Saballos, Armando, Salerno, Giuseppe, Taisne, Benoit, Vásconez, Freddy, Velásquez, Gabriela, Vita, Fabio, Yalire, Mathieu

“…This inventory opens a window into the short-term emission patterns of a diverse set of volcanoes in terms of magma composition, geographical location, magnitude of emission, and style of eruptive activity. We find that passive volcanic degassing is by no means a stationary process in time and that large sub-daily variability is observed in the flux of volcanic gases, which has implications for emission budgets produced using short-term, sporadic observations. …”

新加坡华语电视剧华人形象研究 = A study of ethnic Chinese images in Singapore Chinese television drama by Xiang, Zhili

“…Based on collecting, viewing and categorizing the representative TV series of MediaCorp Channel 8, this thesis analyzes the six dimensions in the construction of images of ethnic Chinese: Chinese nationals (Overseas Chinese), Singapore citizens, English education, language dialects, new immigrants from China, and other races in Singapore like Malays and Indian. In terms of the images of Overseas Chinese and Singapore citizens, Singapore Chinese TV dramas have demonstrated the transformation of the identities; before the Second World War, the emphasis was on the establishment of the Overseas Chinese identity; after the independence of Singapore, the attention was on promoting and instilling the identity of Singapore citizens. …”
