Ocean Circulation and Air-Sea Interaction in the South China Sea
This book summarizes achievements of the study on circulation and air–sea interaction and development of the ocean observation network in the South China Sea in the last 20 years, thus serving as a comprehensive reference book to understand the dynamic environment in the SCS. It consists of seven chapters, briefly reviewing our understanding of the SCS circulation and air–sea interaction in chapter 1, then describing in detail the upper layer circulation from large scale (SCS through flow, SCS western boundary current, etc.), to meso- and submeso-scale in Chapters 2 and 5, dilute river plume and coastal upwelling over the shelf in Chapter 3, deep ocean circulation in Chapter 4, tropical cyclone activities and air–sea flux at the interface in Chapter 6, and the construction of the observation network and database in Chapter 7. Besides the basic features of these physical processes, the book also discusses their variations and fundamental dynamics. Thus, it is written in a way that meets the different information demands from researchers working in various marine related fields.

Crossing Borders
This book explores the processes of self-understanding that take place in a group of Chinese women studying in universities in the United States. In the past few decades, there has been an increasing number of Chinese women attending U.S. universities, yet their psychological experiences within American culture have not been a focus of study by researchers in higher education. Those who crossed geographic, cultural, and psychological borders to study in the U.S. described their change as a basic psychological process called 'reweaving a fragmented self.' This book contributes to the educator's understanding of the diversity of international women's student experiences, expectations, and desires.

Overview of the Sociolinguistic Context of the Dongxiang Language
This book aims at questioning the relationship between language and identity through the description of the sociolinguistic environment of the Dongxiang language, an under-studied Mongolic language spoken by the Dongxiang people in Southern Gansu, China. We will try to understand how, through interaction between the Dongxiang people and their neighbouring Hui communities, and their relationship to Standard Chinese, contacts have deeply modified the structure of the Dongxiang language. The Dongxiang linguistic community is in a state of unconscious diglossia: there is a de facto hierarchy of languages, but it is not recognised by speakers and is not expressed in the form of a general feeling of linguistic insecurity within the community. This is reflected in the Dongxiang language, where a specific morphology has been developed to integrate lexical and syntactic borrowings, making code-switching and code-mixing virtually impossible.

Wireless Algorithms, Systems, and Applications
The two-volume set LNCS 12385 + 12386 constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Wireless Algorithms, Systems, and Applications, WASA 2020, which was held during September 13-15, 2020. The conference was planned to take place in Qingdao, China; due to the COVID-19 pandemic it was held virtually. The 67 full and 14 short papers presented in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 216 submissions. These submissions cover many hot research topics, including machine-learning algorithms for wireless systems and applications, Internet of Things (IoTs) and related wireless solutions, wireless networking for cyber-physical systems (CPSs), security and privacy solutions for wireless applications, blockchain solutions for mobile applications, mobile edge computing, wireless sensor networks, distributed and localized algorithm design and analysis, wireless crowdsourcing, mobile cloud computing, vehicular networks, wireless solutions for smart cities, wireless algorithms for smart grids, mobile social networks, mobile system security, storage systems for mobile applications, etc.

Competition, Innovation And Trade
Innovation and international trade are two important drivers of economic growth. These two activities perform differently under different types of market competition.This book — a collection of several important research publications by Larry D Qiu — discusses innovation and international trade, separately and jointly, under imperfect competition. Through exploring these topics, they offer different perspectives on these issues. The selected works also provide clear and strong implications on trade policies and intellectual property rights protection.
