Coral Reef Marine Plants of Hainan Island summarizes the literature on the role and use of marine plants in coral reef ecosystems, especially in China and countries in the Asia-Pacific Region. The first chapter of the book focuses on the description of coral reef ecosystems, their architecture, and status of Hainan coral reefs. The second chapter focuses on common knowledge surrounding marine plants, such as their classification, identifying characteristics of different phyla, morphology, reproduction, life forms, main algal communities on coral reefs, distribution of algae on coral reefs and their roles, and the use of seaweeds in cookery, medicine, industry, and agriculture.

The third chapter on the seaweed flora of Hainan Island contains species composition of the marine benthic flora, the complete list of marine plants found by researchers from all studies, and historical changes in the flora and seasonal changes. The final chapter shows how to identify common species of marine plants on coral reefs of Hainan Island.

This excellent work will help readers identify relevant plants, also teaching them how to use plant resources to assess endangered states and create conservation strategies.

Presents the first publication devoted to the description of marine plants of Hainan Island Describes marine plants, including the role of their communities in ecosystems of coral reef Discusses seasonal and decadal changes in biodiversity and the composition of the marine flora of the island Combines fundamental morphology with utilization and related products

Air source heat pumps are mainly used for space heating, and have the advantages of environmental protection, energy saving, and comfort. Written by a leading heat pump technology expert, this book summarizes the research and applications of variable volume ratio two-stage vapor compression air source heat pump technology, and its use in cold climate regions. This book can be used for reference by scientific researchers and engineers engaged in research on air source heat pump technology, product development and popularization; and by energy management and policy researchers. It will also be of value to undergraduate and graduate students studying these areas of technology.

This unique volume focuses on the development of Chinese as a Second Language (CSL) teachers in the global context. It addresses the specific issues and challenges faced by CSL teachers and demonstrates international practices in the field. It also provides a comprehensive examination of their multifaceted professionalism from diverse perspectives.With the rise of China as a political and economic power, learning CSL has increasingly gained its popularity in a global context. According to the Chinese International Education Foundation, by 2023, the number of registered Chinese language learners exceeded 12.5 million. Due to the shortage of teachers, the Ministry of Education in China launched the International Chinese Language Teachers Volunteer Program in 2004. By 2021, more than 61,000 volunteer Chinese language teachers had been dispatched to more than 151 regions and countries. Many more overseas universities, colleges, and higher institutes now have established CSL programmes at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels to cultivate local CSL teachers. However as the number of CSL learners continues to grow, the need for high-quality Chinese language teachers has become more urgent than ever. Responding to CSL teachers’ challenges of delivering Chinese language and culture to learners from diverse language and cultural backgrounds, this book explores four interrelated themes: 1) CSL teachers’ professional development in the global context, 2) CSL teachers’ motivation, agency, and identity, 3) CSL teachers’ knowledge and practice in multicultural and multilingual contexts, and 4) CSL teachers’ technological literacy and agency in the digital era.With its focus on both the internal and external complexities of CSL teacher development, the book offers timely insights and practical guidance for researchers, educators, policymakers, and frontline teachers working in this rapidly expanding field.

This book evaluates a project where formal classroom learning of a second language was supplemented with informal, natural interactions with older native speakers of the target language, delivering a number of pedagogical and societal benefits. The authors introduce a model of intergenerational, intercultural encounters which aims to promote the use of community language resources; enrich the experiences of young learners; foster greater understanding between generations; break down cultural stereotypes; encourage appreciation of different cultures and enhance the quality of life and community engagement of older people with a bi/multilingual background. It draws on theories of language acquisition, discourse analysis and psychosocial perspectives to propose a model of language learning for students that can be used for any language or locality. It is therefore an essential resource for graduate students, researchers and language teachers as well as for education, aged and youth care policy makers, practitioners and community services workers who are interested in innovative language pedagogy.

Die deutsche juristische Methodenlehre wurde in der Volksrepublik China rezipiert und ist auf einem abstrakten Niveau in die wissenschaftliche Diskussion eingegangen. Die fallbezogene Anwendung der Methodenlehre und ihre Leistungsfähigkeit zur Lösung juristischer Streitfragen standen im Mittelpunkt einer Tagung deutscher und chinesischer Zivilrechtswissenschaftler im August 2013 in Berlin. Die juristische Argumentation wurde anhand des Immobiliarsachenrechts, insbesondere des Wohnungseigentums, diskutiert, das in China zu einer Vielzahl von Konflikten geführt hat. Diesen deutsch-chinesischen Diskurs dokumentiert der vorliegende Tagungsband.
