  • Global Maritime Weekly Digest Publishing Director: Prof Minghua Zhao Editor: Richard Scott
    Please note: this publication is intended for academic use only, not for commercial purposes Global Maritime Weekly Digest Publishing Director: Prof Minghua Zhao Editor: Richard Scott 24 October 2017 issue 93 ..................................................................................................................................... The Global Maritime Weekly Digest, based at Southampton SOLENT University, provides a regular flow of maritime news and analysis, of significance in a global context. Topics covered include shipping fleets and management, seaborne trade, ports, shipbuilding, ship recycling, maritime policy and regulations, and seafarers' labour. Contents (1) World seaborne trade growth regaining momentum this year (2) Prospects for multipurpose shipping sector justify cautious optimism (3) Global car carrier fleet developments (4) Reduced average ship speed could cut emissions substantially (5) Rising emissions from shipping activities (6) China’s economy progressing well: benefits for the global maritime scene (7) How container shipping might evolve over the next half century Editorial comments • In 2017 world seaborne trade growth is expected to show an acceleration from relatively slow rates in the previous two years, according to some analysts (item 1). This performance is partly restoring confidence in the upwards trend, after past sluggishness had caused observers to question whether it is still realistic to expect further robust expansion. • A new study of global shipping emissions reveals that growth of greenhouse gases produced by the industry (oceangoing vessels, domestic ships and fishing vessels) has resumed (item 5). But the published data from this source also shows that the industry’s emissions, as a proportion of the global total from all origins, has remained stable in recent years. • Amid the strategic and symbolic five-yearly party congress now ending in Beijing, figures measuring the output of China’s economy show that third quarter GDP expansion was above target.

  • Inventory of Environmental Work in China
    INVENTORY OF ENVIRONMENTAL WORK IN CHINA In this fifth issue of the China Environment Series, the Inventory of Environmental Work in China has been updated and we made extra effort to add many new groups, especially in the Chinese organization section. To better highlight the growing number of U.S. universities and professional associations active in China we have created a separate section. In the past inventories we have gathered information from U.S. government agencies; from this year forward we will be inventorying the work done by other governments as well. This inventory aims to paint a clearer picture of the patterns of aid and investment in environmental protection and energy-efficiency projects in the People’s Republic of China. We highlight a total of 118 organizations and agencies in this inventory and provide information on 359 projects. The five categories of the inventory are listed below: Part I (p. 138): United States Government Activities (15 agencies/organizations, 103 projects) Part II (p. 163): U.S. and International NGO Activities (33 organizations, 91 projects) Part III (p. 190): U.S. Universities and Professional Association Activities (9 institutions, 27 projects) Part IV (p. 196): Chinese and Hong Kong NGO and GONGO Activities (50 organizations, 61 projects) Part V (p. 212): Bilateral Government Activities (11 agencies/organizations, 77 projects) Since we have expanded the inventory, even more people than last year contributed to the creation of this inventory. We are grateful to all of those in U.S. government agencies, international and Chinese nongovernmental organizations, universities, as well as representatives in foreign embassies who generously gave their time to compile and summarize the information their organizations and agencies undertake in China.

Tittmann Schell Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics Corina S. Drapaca Assistant Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics Qiming Zhang Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering Judith A. Todd Professor P. B. Breneman Head of the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Techniques that can noninvasively and dexterously manipulate cells and other bioparticles (such as organisms, DNAs, proteins, and viruses) in a compact system are invaluable for many applications in life sciences and medicine. Historically, optical tweezers have been the primary tool used in the scientific community for bioparticle manipulation. Despite the remarkable capability and success, optical tweezers have notable limitations, such as complex and bulky instrumentation, high equipment costs, and potential damage to cells. To overcome the limitations of optical tweezers and other particle manipulation methods, we have developed a series of acoustic-based, on-chip devices called acoustic tweezers that can manipulate cells and other bioparticles using sound waves. The power density required by our acoustic device is 10,000,000 times less than that of optical tweezers, which renders the technique noninvasive and amenable to miniaturization.
