She organized more than 200 worshipers as a group named “Taiwan Tsu Huei Temple Queen Mother of the West Delegation to China to Worship at the Ancestral Temples” in 1990. At that time, the temple building of the Queen Mother Palace in Huishan of Gansu Province was in disrepair, and Temple Master Kuo, Yeh-Tzu made a vow to rebuild it. Rebuilding the ancestral temple began in 1992 and was completed in 1994. It was the first case of a Taiwan temple financing the rebuilding of a far-away Queen Mother Palace with its own donations. In addition, Sung Shan Tsu Huei Temple celebrated its 45th anniversary and hosted Yiwei Yuanheng Lizhen Daluo Tiandi Qingjiao (Momentous and Fortuitous Heaven and Earth Prayer Ceremony) in 2015. This is the most important and the grandest blessing ceremony of Taoism, a rare event for Taoism locally and abroad during this century. Those sacred rituals were replete with unprecedented grand wishes to propagate the belief in Queen Mother of the West. Stopping at nothing, Queen Mother’s love never ceases.

  • Broadening of SLR Network in Chinese Mainland
    13-Po07 Broadening of SLR Network in Chinese Mainland Li-ping JI Satellite Observatory, Chinese Academy of Surveying & Mapping (E-mail: [email protected]) A b s t r a c t Chinese mainland should broaden its SLR network ,to determine and check up the orbits of its Compass/Beidou satellites. At least 3 new stations should be located in west China's Urumqi, Xining and Lhasa. Three broadening plans of SLR network can be thought about ,and more mobile systems may be designed .Three methods can be used in overcoming its main difficulty. Satellite laser ranging, as a space technology to achieve the highest absolute accuracy of the distance measurement , has developed nearly half a century . In mainland China , geodesy, geodynamics , seismology and astronomy research departments , satellite laser ranging technology sustained attention to nearly four decades .In the distribution of China, satellite laser ranging stations , relative to its vast recovery , it is too sparse .This situation not only restricted the use of satellite laser ranging technology and development in these sectors , but also stagnated others’ technology sector pace. In Yousaf Butt’s literature(2007), China has five fixed stations and two mobile stations . Unfortunately , their operation is not entirely. In mainland China, the development of satellite laser ranging technology, on the last number , there are ups and downs and volatility , its rate of expansion and global positioning technology can not be in the same breath . Relative lack of talent, relatively backward technology, and economic constraints of the amount invested , are not conducive to widespread use of this technology.

  • Sediment Provenance Discrimination in Northern Okinawa Trough During the Last 24 Ka and Paleoenvironmental Implication: Rare Earth Elements Evidence
    JOURNAL OF RARE EARTHS, Vol. 30, No. 11, Nov. 2012, P. 1184 Sediment provenance discrimination in northern Okinawa Trough during the last 24 ka and paleoenvironmental implication: rare earth elements evidence XU Zhaokai (徐兆凯)1, LI Tiegang (李铁刚)1, CHANG Fengming (常凤鸣)1, CHOI Jinyong2, LIM Dhongil3, 4 XU Fangjian (徐方建) (1. Key Laboratory of Marine Geology and Environment, Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Qingdao 266071, China; 2. Department of Oceanography, Kunsan National University, Kunsan 573-701, Korea; 3. South Sea Institute, Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute, Geoje 656-830, Korea; 4. School of Geo- sciences, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao 266555, China) Received 28 February 2012; revised 28 September 2012 Abstract: Rare earth elements (REE) compositions and discriminant function were successfully used to examine high resolution sediment source changes in the northern Okinawa Trough over the last 24.1 ka, especially for the influence from the Yellow River and the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) that has not been well solved. Variations of these parameters were clearly divided into three distinct depositional units. During Interval 1 (24.1–16.0 ka BP), the paleo-Yellow River and the paleo-Yangtze River mouths were situated near the studied area and could have played major roles in the sedimentation therein. In Interval 2 (16.0–7.3 ka BP), these river mouths gradually retreated with global sea-level rise, leading to less fluvial inputs from them to the northern Okinawa Trough. Meanwhile, formation of the TWC could carry some sediment loads of Taiwan to the studied core, especially during its late phase (8.0–7.3 ka BP).
