The research and development situation of environmental governance in the past thirty years may be intuitively acquired with the co-word analysis in the interdisciplinary environmental law. This paper analyzes the research focus and transformation situation of China’s environment governance and law by searching related papers with the subject words “environmental law” in Chinese Journal Full-text Database. The co-word analysis results show environmental law research showed five main knowledge focuses, such as international environmental law, sustainable development, environmental right, participation, and environment conservation. And according to the co-word analysis, environmental law research may be divided into four stages: foundation, prosperity, from theory to practice transformation, and challenge stage of environmental law response to new environment problems. By analysis of the research focus, we can know China’s researchers in the environmental governance policy or law should strengthen the scientific, pertinence and prospective characteristics of environmental law research, make interdisciplinary and comprehensive study combined with China long-term science and technology development.

The design of workstations with visual displays has become the subject of considerable interest and concern during the past few years. One area of concern relates to the assumption that long term viewing of such displays at close focal distances may contribute to visual fatigue. A second is the effect on the human visual system of the frequent changes in surface illumination associated with display units used in combination with hard copy documents. As a consequence of these and other concerns, the popular press has published articles that have aroused the interest of various scientific organizations regarding the subject of these effects. This paper discusses a review of some of the literature regarding a limited aspect of this issue, namely the accommodation and pupillary systems as they relate to long term viewing of visual display units.

Inequality has been a long standing issue in Malaysia, although the situation has been statistically improving over the past 40 years. From a Gini coefficient of 0.51 in 1970, the government has done considerably well to bring the figure down to 0.39 in 2016. Efforts toward improving the situation are aplenty, but there is room for improvement in terms of the coordination and collaboration of initiatives that are carried out within the public, private, and social sectors. This paper explores the idea of corporate social intrapreneurship as a potential vehicle to mitigate inequality in the country for the long term. Through the analysis of existing literatures and data on the subject, the aim is to first of all, provide a historical and global context on how the roles of corporation have evolved over the years, discuss the transformative views on social intrapreneurship against traditional corporate social responsibility, and offer considerations to further corporate social intrapreneurship initiatives through public-private partnerships in Malaysia.

There was some recent progress in the understanding of genetic risk factors in chronic pancreatitis. Due to this progress some of the traditional views of the subject will change. Today, genetic risk factors are attributed a much more important role that in the past. The frequency and strength of mutations were higher than expected. Strong variants were the rare autosomal-dominant mutations N29I and R122H of PRSS1 (cationic trypsinogen) and homozygous N34S of SPINK1 (pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor). Other mutations (heterozygous N34S, CFTR) were of lower relevance but still mediate a higher risk than alcohol consumption. The course of genetically determined pancreatitis is rather mild. In the long term pancreas cancer was found in some patients but apart from non-smoking no adequate prophylactic strategy is available up to now.

An indepth phycological comparison is presented for lakes Ontario, Erie, Huron, and Superior, based on extensive lake-wide surveys carried out during the past 12 years. This comparison was achieved by the application of standard and consistent identification, enumeration, and data-processing techniques. The resulting species composition data are voluminous and present a broad picture of the phytoplankton assemblage. Our data base has enabled us to assess the long-term floristic changes, knowledge of which is lacking in the Great Lakes. The species composition reflects more or less the current trophic status of these lakes. The preponderance of nannoplankton and phytoflagellates is the subject of our current experimental research, which includes the fractionation of chlorophyll a and carbon-14 uptake, toxicity studies of heavy metals upon various size fractions of algae, and the role of microalgae and ultraplankton in the transfer of contaminants via zooplankton grazing. The need for phycological research in the Great Lakes is expanding with decreasing eutrophication and the increasing problems of contaminants. The recovery, rehabilitation, and preservation of these vital freshwaters are the primary concern of the continuing Canadian research program in the Great Lakes.

Administrative punishment is the most important legal “lever” to reduce the level of administrative tort. Hence, it is important to study the issue of increasing the effectiveness of administrative punishment and the formation of a special scientific directionadministrative Penology, the Central element of the subject of which is administrative punishment and those phenomena, events, facts, States and processes that form the legally fixed type and limits of administrativetort sanctions. The need for a comprehensive study of administrative punishment is associated with obtaining the most effective result, designed for the long term, by analyzing the effectiveness of the existing exclusively legal mechanism for the appointment and execution of administrative punishments and searching for reserves of administrative punishment, using the achievements of legal, sociological and psychological Sciences.

The paper discusses the image of archaeology and archaeologists created in the public by various media. On the grounds of analysis of the texts in which the subject of archaeology figures in newspapers and on social networks, it is demonstrated that archaeologists are mainly perceived in the public as inert “concealers” of the real truth of the past. The reason behind this is equally in the insufficient knowledge of the media, but as well in the reluctance of professional archaeologists to communicate. The paper offers an outline of long-term strategy to bridge the existing gap and inform the public about the mission and social relevance of the discipline.

This article returns to what was once an ethnographic staple in the sociology of India: the post-harvest grain heap. Having long occupied centre stage in analyses of a moneyless, redistributive transactional order widely known as the jajmani system, it has also been the subject of influential critique, where it has been argued that the misconceived heap sustained a powerful anthropological fiction. Moving beyond these positions, which seem to have left the heap grounded in the past, the grain heap in this work is reconceptualised as a critical entry point and analytic for the study of contemporary commodity markets. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in an agricultural market (mandi) in Madhya Pradesh, it finds that it is along the seams or internal margins of the market, at routine sites of physical transfer and exchange, assembly and dispersal, integration and disruption, that heaps of agricultural produce materialise. An analysis of critical aspects of the heap—its position, composition, measurement and distribution—provides sharp insights into the changing dynamics of the market and its complex relationships. In the process, it also reveals important yet often unnoticed shifts in the sources and distribution of economic and social margins, and their diverse and differentiated effects on market life and livelihoods.

The geomagnetic field is predominantly dipolar today, and high-fidelity paleomagnetic mean directions from all over the globe strongly support the geocentric axial dipole (GAD) hypothesis for the past few million years. However, the bulk of paleointensity data fails to coincide with the axial dipole prediction of a factor-of-2 equator-to-pole increase in mean field strength, leaving the core dynamo process an enigma. Here, we obtain a multidomain-corrected Pliocene–Pleistocene average paleointensity of 21.6 ± 11.0 µT recorded by 27 lava flows from the Galapagos Archipelago near the Equator. Our new result in conjunction with a published comprehensive study of single-domain–behaved paleointensities from Antarctica (33.4 ± 13.9 µT) that also correspond to GAD directions suggests that the overall average paleomagnetic field over the past few million years has indeed been dominantly dipolar in intensity yet only ∼60% of the present-day field strength, with a long-term average virtual axial dipole magnetic moment of the Earth of only 4.9 ± 2.4 × 1022 A⋅m2.

During the past fifty or sixty years in the history of Romance linguistics, the erratic development of vowels in hiatus has constituted an ever recurring problem. Scholars have been little preotcupied with the subject except in so far as it touches the history of the number words (CL dŭo) and the possessive adjectives and pronouns (CL měus, tŭus, sŭus). A study of the latter led d'Ovidio to give the first account of any extent of the development of vowels in hiatus in a Romance tongue; he limited his study to Italian. At about the same time, Karl Brugmann was investigating the mode of development of vowels in hiatus in Latin and Greek. Although he was able to establish a fairly clear system of development for the forms in the ancient languages, further studies in Romance linguistics failed to clarify the issue for the modern languages. In 1893, Menger attempted to answer, at least tentatively, some of the outstanding questions incidental to the problem and cleared the atmosphere somewhat; his treatment was, however, primarily a development of the possessive pronoun and was limited to Italian. The work of scholars such as Meyer-Lubke led to mere tabulation of forms; other treatments have considered at most a set group of words, like the possessive pronouns, in the various languages or have dealt only with the multitude of dialectal forms in an area geographically restricted. In short, the development of vowels in hiatus in the whole of the Romance territory has never been the object of a comprehensive study.

Bandung has many heritage buildings and museums that can be very attractive to tourists. Nowadays, many heritage buildings, especially museums are developed to cater the needs of students and youngster to improve their knowledge. Hence, visiting museum and many other heritage buildings become activities in edu-tourism. Youngster and students are those in the segment of Genration Y that are targeted by museum. The characteristics of Gen-Y is that they like something new and very update with the newes technology. This Characteristic are really on the opposite sites of the appearance of museum that contains history and heritage of the past. Hence, the museums as a heritage objects should develop good positioning strategy in attracting those segment. This research focus on the evaluation of positioning strategy that is implemented by some museums in Bandung city and its influence to thedecision making in visiting edu-tourism sites. The dimensions of positioning strategy consist of value, uniquenessm credibility, sustainability, and suitability. The result shows that the positioning strategy has significant influence to the tourist decision making The most significant value is on the “sustainability” or the preference tendency of a museum to be exist in the long term.
