On Oct 18th, we successfully defended our bidding for an ANSO project, MORATOXA (Monitoring and Risk Assessment of Toxic Chemicals in the Air ) in Beijing. MORATOXA stands for a well extension of our completed SCP program, by which we are able to collaborate with six of our partners along the Maritime Silk Road. The key topic becomes air toxics and their health risks. We could image more international travels, to different countries in Africa , South Asia and Southeast Asia~!
Oct 16-17th, several group members attended the 6th International Conference on Environmental Pollution and Health organized by Jinan University. The event took place in the Sunshine Hotel (阳光酒店) not far away from the institute. Zhang Gan and Shizhen gave presentations on the conference, respectively. Lele, Yingjian, Yuwei and Jianchu joined; this maybe their first international conference they attended.
On September 27-30th, a team of us paid a leisure visit to HuaNiao Island (花鸟岛）of ZhouShanQunDao (舟山群岛) for an academic gathering and meantime saw the air sampling site run by Lin Tian (林田）who called the arrangement. Included in the attendants are 陈颖军、林田、李军、田崇国、章炎麟、时真、张干. It is a memorable trip with beautiful sceneries, nice seafood, lots of discussion, chats and, of cause, drinking. I would call it ‘结夏安居‘, though much shorter than a Budish one.
I wrote a poetry to blog my feelings and the night views.
那墨色里的光亮
不是街灯
是天上的星星
揉碎在海波间
微风吹送
圣托里尼的屋坪
黄鱼秋讯
