On August 18th, Haoyu (昊余) gave a report over a group of professor panel members on her post-doctoral research fellow (PDRF) study in GIG for the last 4 years. Included in the panel were Zou Shichuan of SYSU, and Li Jun, Tang Mingjin, Ding Xiang and Hu Weiwei of GIG. Haoyu is to start her early carrier as a research scientist in SYSU. Bon Voyage!
On August 8-10th, Tang Jiao (唐娇) and Gan attended the 1st young scientist conference on carbon research. The conference, of which Gan was one of the key organizers and keynote speakers, was organized by the new launched journal of ‘Carbon Research’. Both of us gave presentation, meanwhile enjoying the beautiful scenery and comfortable weather in Jianchun (剑川) of Yunnan province.
Xiaofei’s new paper entitled ‘ Provenance of Aerosol Black Carbon over Northeast Indian Ocean and South China Sea and Implications for Oceanic BC Cycling‘ has been accepted for publication in ES&T; and was chosen as a supplementary cover story of the issue. Congratulations!
Image chosen for a supplementary cover story of the ES&T issue. The little Asian elephant was added as an element to represent the South and Southeast Asia, where the studied area was.

Figure 4. Source fractions (pie chart) and air mass back trajectories (colored lines) of aerosol black carbon (BC) in the dual-carbon isotope province of “SCS close to Chinese Mainland” (gray), “Open SCS” (green), “NEIO close to Southeast Asia” (blue), “Open NEIO” (light purple), “Malacca Strait” (pink) and “Sunda Strait” (orange). Air mass back trajectories in an isotope province share the same color. (SCS: the South China Sea; NEIO: the northeast Indian Ocean)
