I am wrapping up my visit at CAS/IAP, my third stop in China during this trip. Every place I have been to during this trip, I feel so welcomed. I wish I could work at each of these places two weeks at a time every six months. We will see.
I wish you could watch the video below... http://andrewsullivan.thedailybeast.com/2012/04/the-life-below.html I have already thought about starting my presentation by apologizing to marine biologists who will be at my seminar on ecosystem modeling. Why? Well, the model we use is sooooooo ...
My brother said it will not be a long holiday, but one of my girlfriends said people may get seven days off. Since I will visit Bei Da after May 1st, who can tell me if the school will be open or closed on May 3rd and 4th?

Well, my conservative prediction failed. The manuscript will not be submitted in April. I cannot delay my trip, but I am willing ...
Dear LH, I know I still owe you one, your second question about whether or not I still enjoy research. The answer is yes and no. I say yes, because I am still working on this "never-ending" project, that has made me an expert on ecosystem modeling using NPZD model. In fact, we are the very few g ...
Some people write research papers. Most just write papers. One writes research bible. It's not me, but I am supposed to supply the materials for the bible. We have made a table for all the numerical experiments we need to carry out, and then pick a few to discuss and/or show in this bible. As of ...

Eliminated all the snacks I could find in my office, including part of my lunch. Painfully corrected a subroutine; checked, checked, and checked a ...
I am an ocean modeler by training. I know what my model can and cannot do. I try my best to validate my model output using observations, so should you.
