January 2012 The Voice of Han Volume 5 漢之聲 第五冊 2012 年 1 月 1 Editor’s Remarks 編者的話 2011 was a year of calamities, man-made and natural. In January, Egypt cut its people off from the internet as the “Arab Spring” began. In Syria, Tunisia, Libya and elsewhere, citizens used social media to organize street protests. In March, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake rocked Japan, followed by a tsunami that devastated towns and left about 20,000 dead or missing. In July, 91 people were killed in Norway island massacre and capital blast. In September, the United Nations warned that about 750,000 people could perish as the drought in Somalia worsen, and declared a famine crisis. Recently, there were floods in Thailand and Pakistan, which destroyed properties and human lives alike. We express our deepest sympathy and condolence to families of those people who died in all incidents. Our best wishes for health, peace, and prosperity for people throughout the world in 2012! 2011 年是不幸的一年,可謂天災人禍。1 月當「阿拉伯春」開啟,埃及切斷人民们的 電腦網;敘利亞,突尼西亞,利比亞及其他國人们用社會媒體組織街道對抗遊行。3 月日 本發生 9.0 級地震導致掃蕩本州東北一帶,約 2 萬人死亡與失蹤。7 月挪威的島嶼與首 都發生槍殺,導致 91 人喪生。9 月聯合國警告,由於桑馬立亞嚴重旱災,產生饑荒危機, 約 75 萬人將死亡。最近洪水淹沒泰國與巴基斯坦,吹毀了許多人命及財產。我們對所 有遇難家屬,表示最誠摯的憐憫與慰問。在這嶄新 2012 年的來臨,我們對全世界所有人 们,呈獻最佳祝福,健康,和平與興盛! 21 leaders of countries convened at the 18th APEC summit in Honolulu in November, 2011, and the declaration contained: the 19th APEC economic leaders’ meeting, strengthening regional economic integration and expanding trade, promoting green growth, regulatory convergence and cooperation, and looking forward to the fruits of these international agreements. Earlier, the 2011 G20 summit was held in Connie, France in October, which was resulted in little progress on the issues under discussion, although there was an agreement to allow increased use of Capital controls as a defense against international speculators. 2011 年 11 月第 18 屆亞太經濟合作會議包括 21 國家領袖於夏威夷檀香山舉行,其 宣言包含:19 屆亞太經合會議,加強地區經濟整體與擴展貿易,提昇綠化成長,收集與 合作規則化,與展向未來。稍早 2011 年 10 月,20 國家領袖群在法國康尼召開,雖然 有一同意允許增加利用資本來控制對抗國際冒險投機者,但對討論題目獲得很少進展。 Congratulations to Ma Yinjio for wining the re-election of the President of Taiwan in 2012.

Truth and non-violence are as old as the hills.” 「我沒有什麼新事務教導這世界,真理與非暴力陳舊如同高山。」 -M. K. Gandhi 甘地 Introduction 序言 Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (is known as Mahatma Gandhi, 1869-1948) was the great preeminent political and spiritual leader for Indian independence. He was the pioneer of sayagraha-resistance to tyranny through civil disobedience, a philosophy founded on non-violence. This non-violent philosophy helped India to independence and inspired many movements for civil rights and freedom throughout the world. Gandhi is officially honored as the Father of India, and his birthday, 2 October, is commemorated as Indian National Holiday and worldwide as the International Day of Non-Violence. It is widely held─ in retrospect ─that Gandhi should have been the very man to be selected for the Nobel Peace Prize. He was nominated several times, but unfortunately, was never awarded the prize. 馬漢搭斯‧甘地 (1869-1948)是促使印度獨立偉大優秀的政治與精神領袖,他是「撒 亞格若哈」(印度語)哲學的先驅, 這是一門根源於非暴力的哲學,即經由文明的不服 從,反對專制獨裁。這非暴力的哲學幫助印度獨立,並激發了全世界許多維護民權及自 由的運動。甘地被國家榮譽推舉為印度國父,其生日被公訂為印度國家紀念日及全世界 國際非暴力日。大家都公認追憶甘地應該是諾貝爾和平獎的最佳得主,他被提名數次, 但是很不幸的,從來未獲此和平獎殊榮。 2010 Nobel Peace Prize was honored to the jailed Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo, 54, who was sentenced to serve 11 years prison for undermining state power in December, 2009. He had demonstrated “a long and non-violent struggle for human rights in China,” described by the Norwegian Nobel Committee. However, Chinese communist government in Beijing branded the decision an ‘obscenity’. In fact, Liu Xiaobo is only one representative of tens of thousands of Chinese political advocates, who strive for China’s democracy for decades. January 2012 The Voice of Han Volume 5 漢之聲 第五冊 2012 年 1 月 5 There were some controversies domestically and internationally whether he was the appropriate recipient for this Nobel Peace Prize or not. But, when Liu Xiaobo first heard the news from his wife Liu Xia, “this peace prize is for all the sacrificed heroes for 1989 pro-democracy demonstrations in the Tiananmen square,” he said. 2010 年諾貝爾和平獎得主中國異議囚士 54 歲的劉曉波,他於 2009 年 12 月被判 刑顛覆國家罪作牢 11 年。挪威諾貝爾獎委員會形容,他證實了「為中國人權做長時期 的非暴力的奮鬥與掙扎」。但是中國共產黨政府斥責這是荒謬絕倫的決定。事實上,劉 曉波僅是長年以來數以萬計的眾多追求中國民主人士们代表之一,在中國與國際有一些 議論(有些正面的,有些負面的),劉曉波是否值得此和平獎殊榮的最佳人選。然而,當 劉曉波面對前來報信的妻子劉霞道出第一句話:「這個獎是給 1989 年天安門亡靈的。」 In May-June 2011, there were a series of protests occurred in Inner Mongolia. Because two incidents related to two Inner Mongolian herdsmen who intended to protect their environments for pollution to prevent exploring coal mines, they were killed by two coal truck drivers in two conflicts.

However, it is not 29 clear how these waters are being supplied and replenished. In particular, how 30 plausible hydrological cycles can be realized between tropical oceans and the TP. In 31 order to explore the mechanism sustaining the atmospheric “water tower” over the 32 TP, the relationship of a “heat source column” over the plateau and moist flows in 33 the Asian summer monsoon circulation is investigated, here we show that the 34 plateau’s thermal structure leads to dynamic processes with an integration of two 35 couples of lower convergences and upper divergences, respectively, over the 36 plateau’s southern slopes and main platform, which relay moist air in two ladders 37 up to the plateau.

  • The Interaction Between Scientists and Policy-Makers. Case Study of 863 Plan of China
    SISSA – International School for Advanced Studies Journal of Science Communication ISSN 1824 – 2049 http://jcom.sissa.it/ Comment BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN SCIENCE AND POLICY: THE IMPORTANCE OF MUTUAL RESPECT, TRUST AND THE ROLE OF MEDIATORS Exploring work: the interaction between scientists and policy-makers. Case study of 863 Plan of China Wen Ke ABSTRACT: Improving communications between scientists and policy makers have being received more and more attention in China. Based on negotiation-boundary work theory (Jasanoff, 1990), this paper presents an analysis of the interface between scientists and policy makers by drawing on the Strategic High-tech Research and Development Program of China (863 Program). The analysis indicates, first, that it is very important of science advice in China, the negotiation and the consensus between scientists and policy makers is vital for policy making; second, that it is dangerous to rely on Technocracy in China, the policy makers give up the discretion while influence experts’ decisions by controlling the consist of scientist advisory committee, which directly result in politicalizing academic research. For scientists and policy makers in China, they should redefine their respective authority boundary, and make the interaction process open and transparent. Introduction Today, as science and technology gradually become the driver for economic development and social impetus, they also have an impact on most core government functions,1 which resulted in the use of scientific consultations in policy-making. Therefore, interactions between scientists and policy-makers are getting more remarkable, especially in policy-making of public fields, like medicine, health, energy- saving, climate change, etc.2 Generally speaking, the interaction between scientists and policy makers to a large possibility depends on a country’s political context.3,4,5 Nations with dispersed and pluralistic power, such as US, have networking-style scientific consultations.

Firstly, the atmospheric apparent heat source on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is estimated based on thermodynamic equations. The correlation between the atmospheric apparent heat source (Q1) on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the air quality in China, especially in the five typical regions (Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Fen-Wei Plain, Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, and Sichuan-Chongqing regions) is analyzed and studied.
