Nikolai Notovich is an Enthusiast of Russian Railways Concessions in Persia by Zaven A. Arabadzhyan

“…Notovich to the idea that under the new conditions it is no longer sensible to build a through road across Persia to the coast of the Persian Gulf or the Indian Ocean. Instead, he advised to focus on developing the railway network in the northern regions of the country, which would contribute to the growth of economic, political and cultural influence of Russia.…”

Acoustic-radio cooperative marine information network by Quansheng GUAN, Weiqi CHEN, Hua YU, Fangjiong CHEN, Fei JI

“…The transmissions of ocean information have to cross the water-air interface.In this case,the information transmission network architecture requires the efficient integration of the underwater acoustic network and the radio network.However,the performance of the underwater acoustic link lags far behind the radio link,and becomes a bottleneck that restricts the performance of marine information networks.An acoustic-radio cooperative marine information network was proposed,which exploited the cooperation of acoustic and radio links to improve network performance.After demonstrating the advantages of acoustic-radio cooperation through three application scenarios,the network architecture and protocols,as well as the challenges for the acoustic-radio cooperative maritime information network were discussed.Acoustic-radio cooperation was not only an effective method for realizing the integration of air-water networks,but also an important method for realizing the integration of network communications,computing,and storage in marine information networks.…”

Coral Reefs: Beyond Mortality? by Charles Sheppard

“…The scale of the collapse of coral reef communities in 1998 following a warming episode (Wilkinson, 2000) was unprecedented, and took many people by surprise. The Indian Ocean was the worst affected with a coral mortality over 75% in many areas such as the Chagos Archipelago (Sheppard, 1999), Seychelles (Spencer et al., 2000) and Maldives (McClanahan, 2000). …”

Shifting Continents and a Devonian Lake Full of Fish: The Extraordinary Geological History of the Shetland Geopark by Susan Beardmore

“…Shetland UNESCO Global Geopark encompasses a wide variety of well-exposed and accessible geological features. The combination of ocean floor remnants on top of ancient continental crust, a cross-section through a volcano, and evidence of earth movements is preserved nowhere else in the world and, individually, are some of the best examples known. …”

Survey on the Development of Space-Integrated-Ground Information Network by Wei WU

“…With the rapid development of ICT(information communication technology) and aerospace technology,the space network related technology is becoming mature,the global promotion of information technology fi eld has been fully expanded to all the space of human production,life and scientifi c research,including land,ocean,sky and space.For the China's information network,it is the focus to speed up the construction of the space-integrated-ground information network and realize the goal of seamless global coverage through the cooperation of the heaven and earth network.Firstly,the composition,network form and main characteristics of the space-ground integrated information network were described.Then,the development status and trend of the space-integrated-ground information networks at home and abroad were summarized.Finally,the key technologies needed to break through in the construction of the space- integrated-ground information network were analyzed,Hoping to provide reference for the development and construction of the space-integrated-ground information network.…”

仿生虎鲸瞬时负载数值模拟 by 李明昊, 乔捷, 王宝新, 范佳艺, 高存强

“…As a kind of bionic robot fish,bionic killer whale played an important role in ocean development and scientific investigation.Based on the theory of flapping wing movement,the biomimetic killer whale was designed in the way of fish propulsion,the load was nonlinear,time-varying and strongly coupled.The bionic killer whale‘s force model was established through the analysis of the bionic killer whale’s straight line and turning movement.The instantaneous load’s text file of bionic killer whale was generated by MATLAB,the instantaneous load was successfully introduced into the rigid-flexible coupling model by ADAMS spline function,which provided a method and condition for qualitative and quantitative analysis of bionic killer whale’rigid-flexible coupling reliability analysis.The results show that MATLAB can accurately simulate the periodic change of the bionic killer whale’s instantaneous load,providing a clear quantitative data for the bionic killer whale’s reliability research.…”

Estimation and Study on the Potential of Irrawaddy River Waterway by LI Wenjie, LIU Dan, YANG Shengfa, YANG Wei, LONG Hao

“…The Irrawaddy River is an important waterway that opens the direct route from southwestChina to the Indian Ocean. Aiming at the development of the Irrawaddy River waterway, thispaper deduces the theoretical formula for the waterway depth based on the hydraulics, river dynamicsand available estimation methods for waterway potential, and estimates the theoretical depth of thewaterway that can be achieved in different sections of the Irrawaddy River by the measured data andempirical parameters.The results show that under the condition of 98% navigation guarantee rate ofthe Irrawaddy River, the minimum waterway development depth from Bhamo to Mandalay, Mandalay toProme, and Prome to Yangon is 2.14 m, 2.58 m and 2.75 m respectively, and the annual navigationcapacity is more than 1.8 billion tons.The research results can provide some theoretical andtechnical support for the development of the Irrawaddy River waterway.…”
