Six spark program systems were established,consisting of policy support guide,science and technology project lead,experts' intelligence support,spark science and technology training,scitech information service and spark program demonstration. Five spark projects were implemented to promote new rural construction in the west bank of Taiwan Strait,such as constructing the national spark industrial zone,organizing the new rural construction led by science and technology,constituting spark sci-tech innovation center,developing the rural informatization,and establishing science and technology commissioner bases. Finally,enlightenment of spark program and its development ways in the future were put forward.展开更多

Based on a series of pressure gauges deployed roughly 40 km offshore along the western Strait, subtidal sea-level variability under the combined impact of winter monsoon and topography was studied. The analyses show significant along-strait coherences of subtidal sea levels and their coherences with the large-scale monsoon wind for periods from 2 to 14 days. It is suggested that these fluctuations are mainly forced waves driven by the large-scale winds. In addition to the normal cross-shore wind setup, a sea-level setup in the along-strait direction is confirmed, which is induced by the combined forcing of the fluctuating winter monsoon and the blocking of the TWB. A southward current surge driven by a northerly wind event will cause a rising sea level over the TWB inducing a southward alongshore slope anomaly to the north of the TWB and a reversed slope anomaly to the south The subtidal current through the channel to the west of the TWB is found to be influenced by the reversed slope anomalies generated via the along-shore setup.展开更多
