MEASUREMENT REPORT: LONG-RANGE TRANSPORT PATTERNS INTO THE TROPICAL NORTHWEST PACIFIC DURING THE CAMP2EX AIRCRAFT CAMPAIGN: CHEMICAL COMPOSITION, SIZE DISTRIBUTIONS, AND THE IMPACT OF CONVECTION

Measurement report: Long-range transport patterns into the tropical northwest Pacific during the CAMP2Ex aircraft campaign: chemical composition, size distributions, and the impact of convection

The tropical Northwest Pacific (TNWP) is a receptor for pollution sources throughout Asia and is highly susceptible to climate change, making it imperative to understand long-range transport in this complex aerosol-meteorological environment.Measurements from the NASA Cloud, Aerosol, and Monsoon Processes Philippines Experiment (CAMP2Ex; 24 August

CALL in Context: A Brief Historical and Theoretical Perspective

Computers have been used for language teaching since the 1960s (Warschauer & Healey, 1998), and several recent studies suggest that there is still a strong need to experiment with technology and digital tools in both education and language learning (Godwin-Jones, 2012; Goertler, 2009; Levy, 2009; Reinhardt & Ryu, 2013; Zhao, 2003).Because o
