For example, Xinyang provides the lowest possible lead-time for one warehouse. Any other place will increase transit lead-time to the Chinese population. Similarly putting any three warehouses in any locations other than Pingxiang, Jinan or Ziyang will cause the transit lead-time to be higher than 2.15 days. © Chicago Consulting 8 South Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60603 Chicago Consulting (312) 346-5080, www.chicago-consulting.com THE 10 BEST CHINESE WAREHOUSE NETWORKS Networks with the Lowest Possible "Time-to-the-Chinese Population" Best One City

  • Teravr Empowers Precise Reconstruction of Complete 3-D Neuronal Morphology in the Whole Brain
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-11443-y OPEN TeraVR empowers precise reconstruction of complete 3-D neuronal morphology in the whole brain Yimin Wang 1,2,3,14,QiLi2, Lijuan Liu1, Zhi Zhou1,4, Zongcai Ruan1, Lingsheng Kong2, Yaoyao Li5, Yun Wang4, Ning Zhong6,7, Renjie Chai8,9,10, Xiangfeng Luo2, Yike Guo11, Michael Hawrylycz4, Qingming Luo12, Zhongze Gu 13, Wei Xie 8, Hongkui Zeng 4 & Hanchuan Peng 1,4,14 1234567890():,; Neuron morphology is recognized as a key determinant of cell type, yet the quantitative profiling of a mammalian neuron’s complete three-dimensional (3-D) morphology remains arduous when the neuron has complex arborization and long projection. Whole-brain reconstruction of neuron morphology is even more challenging as it involves processing tens of teravoxels of imaging data. Validating such reconstructions is extremely laborious. We develop TeraVR, an open-source virtual reality annotation system, to address these challenges. TeraVR integrates immersive and collaborative 3-D visualization, interaction, and hierarchical streaming of teravoxel-scale images. Using TeraVR, we have produced precise 3-D full morphology of long-projecting neurons in whole mouse brains and developed a collaborative workflow for highly accurate neuronal reconstruction. 1 Southeast University – Allen Institute Joint Center, Institute for Brain and Intelligence, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China. 2 School of Computer Engineering and Science, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China. 3 Shanghai Institute for Advanced Communication and Data Science, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China. 4 Allen Institute for Brain Science, Seattle 98109, USA. 5 School of Optometry and Ophthalmology, Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou 325027, China.

Housing and Economic Development in Suzhou, China: A New Approach to Deal with the Inseparable Issues ZhuXiaoDi,HuangLei,andZhangXinsheng Joint Center for Housing Studies W00-4 July 2000 Abstract This is a case study of Suzhou, China, an ancient city of over two thousand years that upgraded itself during the 1990s from a medium-sized city to fifth in China, ranked according to GDP. At the beginning of the decade, the city faced a macroeconomic contraction in the nation, a questionable or unsustainable local economic development model, an enormous task of preserving historical sites, and the pressure of improving the living standards of its residents, which included changing their meager housing conditions.

  • The Nanjing Incident: an Exam Ination of the Civilian Population
    The Nanjing Incident: An Exam ination of the Civilian Population David Askew Monash University 1. Introduction This paper will attempt to set the parameters for any future debate about one aspect ofthe Nanjing (Nanking) Incident by establishing the number ofChinese civilians in the city when it fell on December 13, 1937 ,1 Once the total number has been established, a second paper will set out the author's estimates of the total civilian death toll in and around Nanjing, This paper focuses on the primary documentary sources." Where the civilian population is' concerned, official documents and the recent discovery and subsequent publication of John Rabe's diary) now make it possible to give a confident estimate for when the city fell and for the first crucial weeks of the Japanese occupation. The conclusion drawn from the various primary sources is that the civilian population ofNanjing was 200,000 in the weeks leading up to the fall ofthe city; that it remained 200,000 for the first 4 weeks ofthe occupation; and that it increased to 250,000 by January 10, 1938. This paper will also argue that the closest estimate of the population that can be made is 224,500 as ofDecember 24, 1937 to January 5, 1938. Section 2 examines the civilian population on the basis of the primary documentary sources and compares the findings. with Rabe's diary Section 3 emphasizes the importance of Smythe's sampling survey. Section 4 briefly looks at the Japanese registration ofthe population of Nanjing. Finally, section 5 introduces both the various estimates of the population of the city made by Western journalists before the city fell and the estimates made in the letters and diary entries of various members of the International Committee.

Received: 3 March 2019; Accepted: 2 April 2019; Published: 5 April 2019 Abstract: There remains significant uncertainty in the estimation of anthropogenic CH4 emissions at local and regional scales. We used atmospheric CH4 and CO2 concentration data to constrain the anthropogenic CH4 emission in the Yangtze River Delta one of the most populated and economically important regions in China. The observation of atmospheric CH4 and CO2 concentration was carried out from May 2012 to April 2017 at a rural site. A tracer correlation method was used to estimate the anthropogenic CH4 emission in this region, and compared this “top-down” estimate with that obtained with the IPCC inventory method.
