According to the Compilation of Chinese Local Chronicles and Folklore Materials (《中国地方志民俗资料汇编》) [1], this paper summarizes the time of “Minor New Year” in various regions of China and the regions...

The water quality parameters and microcystins of the two largest highland lakes in China, Dianchi Lake and Erhai Lake, were determined during high eutrophication season in 2011. The results showed that the eutrophic levels and MCs concentrations were obviously higher in Dianchi Lake than those in Erhai...

While “xiaonian (the Chinese minor new year)” is one of the important Chinese traditional festivals, its date is not nationally unified.

This study aimed to use water absorbance in the range of 200-900 nm to predict the turbidity and chlorophyll a concentration (Chl-a) in urban water. Six kinds of water samples were artificially prepared in this study: spirulina samples (S), chlorella vulgaris samples (C), turbidity samples (T), mixed...

We use satellite data to calculate Dimethylsulfur (DMS) in Greenland Sea (20øW~10øE, 70øN~80øN) in year 2003~2006. At the same time, explore the correlations between DMS and sea-ice concentration (ICE). Among the huge global satellite data, the chlorophyll a (CHL) and sea-ice concentration data were...

Blooms of harmful algae and phycocyanin represent a significant and expanding threat to human health and aquatic resources throughout the South Korea.
