Geoengineering by cloud seeding
General circulation model computations using a fully coupled ocean–atmosphere model indicate that increasing cloud reflectivity by seeding maritime boundary layer clouds with particles made from seawater may compensate for some of the effects on climate of increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. The chosen seeding strategy (one of many possible scenarios) can restore global averages of temperature, precipitation and sea ice to present day value…
Japanese Industrialization and the Asian Economy
Much has been made of the post-war Japanese economic miracle. However, the origins of this spectacular success and its effect on the region can actually be traced back to an earlier period of Asian history. In Japanese Industrialization and the Asian Economy the authors examine the factors which contributed to the period of major industrialization

The analysis of group size in visitor surveys
Data relating to group composition are collected in most sample surveys of visitors, both at frontiers and within a tourist region. A vital element is that of size of group. It is important that the distribution of group sizes within the population under consideration is reflected accurately by the sample, possibly after some weighting procedures. A sampling procedure which is biased in terms of size of group will provide biased results concernin…

The pattern of educational visits in England
Educational visits are an integral part of school life and an important source of visitors to tourist attractions yet virtually no research exists as to the significance, or pattern of these visits. This paper analyses the structure, nature and issues of educational visits in England. In the mid 1980s there were over 12 million educational visits to attractions annually. There are distinctive spatial variations of visits and their timing peaks in…

Ethic chinese multinationals in the international grain trade before the second world war
Economists and Economic Historians in the West tend to be ethnocentric in their vision of economic activity. Often they seem to see their own region as the core of the system, and the rest of the world as the periphery. If they spent some time trying to understand the internal workings of economies in Black Africa or in Asia, their vision might be quite different. As it is, they seem to believe that the heartbeat of economic life exists in their …
XXI. Account of antient Sculptures and Inscriptions, in the Abbey Church of Romsey, in a Letter from John Latham, M.D. F.R.S. and F.A.S. to Sir Henry Charles Englefield, Bart. F.R.S. and V.P.A.S
Among many other curious labours of our forefathers to be seen in our old Abbey Church of Romsey, I had long noticed some singular irregularities, appearing somewhat like groupes of figures, on the capitals of two of the pilliars at the east end of the north and south aisles; but, from their having been in a great measure obliterated by successive coats of white-wash bestowed upon them from time to time, under the idea, no doubt, of beautifying, …
