Luce Chapel.Pdf
1 Luce Chapel is a renowned architecture in Taiwan. With its outstanding achievements, it certainly stands outin the modern architectural movement of Preface post-war Taiwan. In October 2014, Luce Chapel was chosen to be one of the ten global classic modern architectures, and the first project within Asian architecture,which received the first “Keeping It Modern” (hereafter abbreviated as KIM) Grant from the Getty Foundation. The Grant acknowledgesthese 20th century modern architectures as milestones of human civilization. With high experimental mentalities, groups of architects and engineersof the previous centuryboldlytried out exploratory materials and cutting edge construction techniques, and built innovative architectures thathave stimulated changes in their surrounding environments, histories, local culture, and forever transformed the philosophical approaches of architecture. However, the Getty Foundation also regards these architectures to be under various degrees of risks. Being fifty to sixty or even older, many of these innovative materials and techniques boldly used at the time oftheirsconstruction were not, and still have not been scientifically tested and analyzed to this very day. Furthermore, the productions of many of these materials have been discontinued due to low adoptions in the market, making conservations even more difficult. Therefore, the Getty Foundation KIM grants promote the sustainable conservation of modern architecture. This focus has also been the core value of the Luce Chapel conservation project. Built in 1963, Luce Chapel has stood on the campus of Tunghai University for over 50 years. This building was designed and built to function as a church building, and has maintained its religious purpose over the years.However, as the number of faculty and students continues to grow,the space demand for community engagements and ceremonial activities of colleges and departments on campus have also increased extensively. -

During the early stage of eustatic sea level rise (∼20–10.2 ka), balanced rates of sediment supply, eustasy and basin subsidence maintained the meandering river environment. Rapid sea level rise led to the initial appearance of estuarine facies at ∼10.2 ka and widened the distribution of the estuarine environment after 8.5 ka; however, the coeval phases of rapid basin subsidence ∼10.6–10.2 ka and 9–8.5 ka promoted the first ap- pearance and widening of the estuary, respectively. -

The Relationship Between Tropospheric Ozone and Atmospheric Circulation in Taiwan
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TROPOSPHERIC OZONE AND ATMOSPHERIC CIRCULATION IN TAIWAN I-CHIEN LAI A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Climatic Research Unit School of Environmental Sciences University of East Anglia June 2010 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the dissertation, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract The aim of the study is to investigate the relationship between variability in tropospheric ozone in Taiwan and the regional atmospheric circulation, paying particular attention to the influence of long-range transport on ozone pollution levels. The study period is 1994 to 2004. The data used in this study include air pollution data from the Taiwan Air Quality Monitoring Network and NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data. The spatial and temporal variations in weather types have been characterised using an objective circulation classification scheme and relationships with episodes of high ozone levels over Taiwan have been determined. The signature of the large-scale atmospheric circulation associated with high ozone pollution and the connection with long-range transport of ozone precursors and ozone have been identified using spatial composites and back-trajectory analysis. Trajectories were calculated using the Hybrid Single-Particle Integrated Trajectory model. The air pollution data analysis shows that Taiwan experiences a seasonal cycle in ozone levels, with maxima in spring and autumn and a minimum in summer. The spatial composite and back trajectory analyses indicate that long-range transport does play a role in increasing high ozone episodes in Taiwan. -
Hazard Assessment of Volcanic Ballistic Impacts at Mt Chihshin, Tatun Volcano Group, Northern Taiwan
Author's personal copy Nat Hazards https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-018-3192-4 ORIGINAL PAPER Hazard assessment of volcanic ballistic impacts at Mt Chihshin, Tatun Volcano Group, northern Taiwan A. Nurmawati1 · K. I. Konstantinou1 Received: 2 July 2017 / Accepted: 26 January 2018 © Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract This study investigates the hazard posed by Volcanic Ballistic Projectiles (VBPs) in the area surrounding Mt Chihshin, Tatun Volcano Group, northern Taiwan. Based on the volcano’s current evolutionary stage, we consider two types of volcanic activ- ity during which VBPs can be generated, namely hydrothermal and vulcanian eruptions. Hydrothermal eruptions may occur after a sudden decompression of water in the hydro- thermal system of the volcano, typically due to mass removal processes, while vulcanian eruptions are caused by solidified magma that plugs the eruptive vent and gets blasted when this caprock is no longer able to withstand the pressure in the volcanic conduit. Ini- tial velocities of ejected VBPs were estimated for each type of activity based on physi- cal models and inserted as initial conditions to the equations that describe their motion. A hydrothermal eruption is assumed to occur at the NW flank of Mt Chihshin near the Hsiaoyiokeng fumarole, which is a place prone to flank instability, while a vulcanian erup- tion is assumed to originate from a central vent at the peak of Mt Chihshin. Modeling results suggest that the radii of the areas impacted by VBPs vary between 0.1 and 1.1 km for a hydrothermal eruption, while they become 1.4–5.1 km for a vulcanian eruption. -

Helium isotopic Received 15 October 2007 compositions of fumarolic samples show that mantle component occupies more than 60% in the previous Accepted 10 June 2008 study. Along with recent seismic results, a magma reservoir is inferred to have existed beneath the area of Available online 18 June 2008 Da-you-keng, where fumarolic venting is the most active in Tatun Volcano Group. Progressive increases of HCl concentrations and SO /H S ratio in fumaroles from Da-you-keng have been observed since August 2004. Keywords: 2 2 The HCl concentration changed from almost the detection limit to thousands of ppm, even up to 30,000 ppm. Tatun Volcano Group Taiwan SO2/H2S ratios varied from almost 0 to 3; hence SO2 became the dominated S species in this area. These volcanic gases variations were accompanied by rising temperature of fumaroles in the Tatun Volcano Group, especially in 3He/4He the area of Da-you-keng (from boiling point to 131 °C). -
