Academic visit to Pakistan

On October 19-27th, three of us (Zhizhen, Yangzhi and Gan) visited Pakistan , with the purpose of promoting and discussing air pollution research collaborations between the two sides.   Gan gave lectures in six universities,  including GC University of Faisalabad, Sargodha University, Punjab University, COMSATS University, Quaid-a-Azim University, National University of Science and Technology; and also visited the Confucius Institutes(孔子学院)in Faisalabad Agricultural University, Punjab University and Sargodha University, respectively. We were highly welcome in all the visited organizations/places, and Shizhen was always surrounded by students and local people for taking pictures together. We paid a day visit to Muree to the north of Islamabad to see the mountains of Kashmir Himalayas.  We were also happy to meet Professor Riffat and Ali Syed who visited us in Guangzhou several and many years ago, respectively.  It is a very memorable trip and we can feel the ironic friendship between people of the two countries!

The Beibu Gulf Scientific Expedition

On August 26, Zhao Hangyi successfully completed the scientific expedition in the Beibu Gulf and returned to Zhanjiang Port, Guangdong, aboard the research vessel Lanbo-1. The expedition began on August 2 and concluded smoothly on August 26, lasting a total of 25 days. The research area covered the Beibu Gulf and the Qiongzhou Strait.

During the cruise, a wide range of samples was collected, including atmospheric samples, seawater, rainwater, and seabed sediments. These samples have now been transported back to the laboratory for further analysis.

For Zhao Hangyi, this expedition was not only a success in terms of sample collection, but also a valuable opportunity to broaden his horizons, build new friendships, and enjoy the unforgettable beauty and stories of life at sea. It was truly a memorable experience.
