Finland and China sign new funding agreement
Research cooperation since the early 1980s The Academy of Finland and the National Natural Science Foundation of China have signed an agreement concerning the funding of joint projects among centres of excellence in research. The closing date for the current round of applications is 11 January 2002. Funding is available for joint projects in two... view more... (2001-12-19)
Groundbreaking Canada-US study proves link between emissions and mercury pollution in fish
A groundbreaking environmental study to be published in a prestigious American science journal proves that mercury atmospheric emissions will end up in fish in as little as three years. view more (2007-09-18)
Denver to Barcelona: Global cities and greenhouse gas emissions
Denver released the largest amount of greenhouse gases (GHG) and Barcelona the smallest amount in a new study documenting how differences in climate, population density and other factors affect GHG emissions in global cities. view more (2009-09-24)
Emissions irrelevant to future climate change?
Climate change and the carbon emissions seem inextricably linked. However, new research published in BioMed Central's open access journal Carbon Balance and Management suggests that this may not always hold true, although it may be some time before we reach this saturation point. view more (2008-04-28)
Air Quality Forecasts for China
With less than a month remaining before the Beijing Olympics, Chinese officials have introduced a series of measures to improve air quality for the Games. A new tool has been installed in the capital city to allow the Chinese to monitor the effectiveness of these efforts. view more (2008-07-24)
Chemical Industry Gives Mixed Response to Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme
The Chemical Industries Association (CIA) today expressed concern that the UK's allocation of greenhouse gas emissions is still not finally decided, but applauded the UK Government's decision to press the European Commission for approval of the revised limits. view more (2005-02-15)
Improving China's acid rain control strategy
Scientists are reporting the first evidence that China's sharp focus on reducing widespread damage to soil by acid rain by restricting sulfur dioxide air pollution may have an unexpected consequence: Gains from that pollution control program will be largely offset by increases in nitrogen emissions, which the country's current policy largely... view more...

Emissions rising faster this decade than last
The latest figures on the global carbon budget to be released in Washington and Paris today indicate a four-fold increase in growth rate of human-generated carbon dioxide emissions since 2000. view more (2008-10-02)
Climate protocol may save Amazon region
If Brazil gets a climate protocol, like the Kyoto Protocol for the rich countries, it will be possible to create an incentive for the country to reduce the deforestation of the Amazon region. The Kyoto Protocol targets a reduction of emissions of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases. In a new study, Martin Persson, in collaboration with Christian... view more... (2004-05-28)
Excitation pattern peak is more important determinant of vowel quality
The perceptions of five Chinese vowel /u, o, a, y, i/ and many perceptional phenomena can be explained well by the excitation pattern peaks. The study is reported in Science in China, Series F-Information Sciences, Volume 52，Issues 10 (Oct, 2009). view more (2009-11-06)
CO2 emissions increasing faster than expected
Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels - the principal driver of climate change - have accelerated globally at a far greater rate than expected over recent years. view more (2007-05-22)
Dyslexia varies across language barriers
Chinese-speaking children with dyslexia have a disorder that is distinctly different, and perhaps more complicated and severe, than that of English speakers. view more (2009-10-13)
Chemistry & Industry Magazine - cover date 1 September 2003
NEWS Rubella Risk Higher than Thought Women in the UK may be more susceptible to rubella than they think. A Japanese study reported 31 incidences of rubella-related deformities in children born to women who had been vaccinated in their early teens. Women born in the UK before 1988 were also vaccinated only once in their early teens. Since then, a... view more... (2003-08-28)
Explaining the methane mystery
Scientists have explained why atmospheric levels of the greenhouse gas methane have stabilised in recent years, but warn that increases could resume in the near future. view more (2006-09-28)
Evaluation of standard liver volume formula for Chinese adults
Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) has been used to alleviate the shortage of available liver donors. Accurate estimation of the standard liver volume (SLV) of the living donor and recipient is crucial. view more (2009-09-16)
York-Sichuan link to study biodiesel production
Biologists at the University of York have established new research links with Chinese scientists to investigate biodiesel - a cleaner, more environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum. view more (2007-01-05)
Verification of national methane estimates now possible
New methods for verifying estimated greenhouse gas emissions, developed by scientists at Royal Holloway, University of London, will play a significant role in assessing reductions in methane emissions, important in national compliance with Kyoto protocol targets. David Lowry, Craig Holmes, Nigel Rata and Euan Nisbet of Royal Holloway’s... view more... (2001-04-25)
Dramatic developments at Kilauea Volcano: Scientists work to keep public safe and informed
Explosive eruptions and noxious gas emissions at Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii this week have prompted scientists to work around the clock to understand what will happen next and how to keep the public out of harm's way. view more (2008-03-28)
Carnegie Mellon urges industry to broaden carbon footprint calculations
Carnegie Mellon University researchers are urging companies to embrace new methods for following the trail of dangerous carbon emissions that are responsible for much of the world's global warming threats. view more (2008-08-18)
Childhood cancers strongly linked to air pollution in early life
Childhood cancers are strongly linked to pollution from engine exhausts, concludes research in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. view more (2005-08-11)
