  • This study explores how to reconcile science and policy in the wind energy sector by providing a conceptual framework for better understanding evidence-based policymaking (EBPM). Regarding this framework, the core issue is to discover how knowledge is formed over time, and which factors affect this knowledge formation. Comparative cases of wind industry emergence in Spain and Britain are examined. This analysis shows that knowledge formation initially starts in the scientific arena in parallel with its formation in the practical, and is followed by political knowledge formation near the beginning of commercial projects. Regarding knowledge formation, three more comparisons are made between wind industry emergence in Spain and Britain: the different approaches to R&D projects, the different adoptions of supporting measures, and the different ways of coping with public opposition. The factors affecting the comparisons are mainly perceptions of energy supply, nuclear power, environment and science and technology. Communication and unfamiliarity are likely to affect the comparisons in EBPM.

  • Since the first report on long-term durable perovskite solar cell in 2012, a surge of interest in perovskite solar cell has been received due to its superb photovoltaic performance exceeding 20%. $MAPbI_3$ ($MA=CH_3NH_3$) perovskite film is able to be prepared simply by solution processesof either sequential two-step or single step procedure. Since $MAPbI_3$ shows balanced charge transport property with micrometer scale charge diffusion length, it can be applied to any kind of junction structures. Mostly studied structure is mesoscopic structure employing mesoporous oxide layer in perovskite film. Photovoltaic performance is primarilyin fluenced by the quality of perovskite film but interfaces are equally important. In this mini review, emergence and evolution of perovskite solar cell are described.

  • In this talk we explain U-loop emergence, in which U-shaped field lines emerge into the solar surface against gravitational force. In principle, they hardly emerge because mass tends to accumulate at the bottom of U-loops, thereby decreasing buoyancy. A key is found to be the shape of U-loops, that is, if U-loops have a shallow dip whose depth is of the order of the photospheric gravitational scale height, then a diverging flow is generated via a siphon-like mechanism by which the mass accumulated at the dip of the loops is drained out to enhance buoyancy. This successfully makes U-part of the loops emerge against gravity. We also discuss the relation between U-loop emergence and the so-called flux cancellation observed on the Sun in which opposite polarity regions apparently approach together and disappear.

  • This paper examines the emergence of mechanical engineers in the technological and social context of professionalization in England. Despite their technological progress, most steam engine wrights and machine tool builders were individual workshop owners working to order in the early 19th century. In the 1830s and 1840s, however, the railway boom produced so called railway engineers by providing them with some managerial experience as the canal building did in civil engineering. Railway engineers played a dominant role to establish the Institute of Mechanical Engineers(IME) in 1848. It was IME that stated what is a mechanical engineer and helped its members be in the similitude of the civil engineers in social and technological activities.

  • This paper examine the changing ecosystems in Malaysia, starting with the government policy driven greenfield cluster of Cyberjaya, which is part of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) mega project. In this context of an emerging economy, predominantly production oriented, the role of the government was crucial with respect to implementing policies and building infrastructure for the ecosystems. First, the roles played by the cluster development agency, universities, and industry are explained. As the cluster developed, this paper, taking an entrepreneurial ecosystem approach, explores how some actors evolved and changed their roles to become catalyst organisations established for the cluster now serving nationwide. This was followed by the emergence of new actors in the ecosystems, for example, knowledge intermediaries, and new roles for universities. In addition to actors such as universities and industry, this paper recognizes the emergence of media organisations as new actors in the entrepreneurial ecosystems in Malaysia.

  • Protests are not new in Malaysia, though it is restricted by the ruling government. The trend of street protests and demonstrations since the emergence of Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih), Malaysia's first people movement on electoral reform, has triggered a sentiment of people power among Malaysian citizens. With protests and popular mobilization becoming pronounced in Malaysian politics, political activism becomes for Malaysians a channel of discontent and expression of political preferences. Using information obtained from interviews with individuals linked to the movement, this paper articulates that protests are no longer exclusive to Malaysians. This paper illustrates the emergence of the Bersih movement and explores the three Bersih mass rallies that took place in 2007, 2011, and 2012. This paper further links the protests with the electoral reform initiatives. It argues that the Bersih movement has managed to lobby fundamental changes in the Malaysian political culture.

  • This study was carried out to identify the effect of seed gathering time and after-ripening on Paeonia lactiflora Pall (PL) seed emergence, and to establish optimal seed gathering time and sowing time. We used two local cultivar of PL ; Punggi and Uisung. Seeds were gathered 6 times from 5th July to 25th August in 1992. The seeds of Punggi local cultivar were planted by the planting density of $10\;{\times}\;15cm$ after treatment of 7 ways ; without after-ripening, with after-ripening for 10, 20, 30 days without or with capsule. We investigated the change of 100 grains weight of PL seed by the passage of time and emergence rate after treatment. The seed weight of Punggi was heavier than that of Uisung and the seed weight was maximzed at 25th July both of the two, and then decreased by the passage of time. The seed emergence rate of Punggi gathered at 5th July was showed 7.8% and the seed emergence of Uisung was later 10 days than that of Punggi. The maximum emergence rate of two local cultivars was the highest in gathering the seeds on the 15th of August. In gathering the seeds without and with capsule, the emergence rate of seeds sowed with after-ripening was higher than that of seeds sowed immediately after gathering the seeds without after-ripening when the seeds gathered between 5th July and 5th August. In after-ripening with out and with capsule, the emergence rate of 10 days after-ripening seeds was less than that of 20 and 30 days after-ripening seeds after the seeds gathered on the 5th and 15th of July. Difference of the emergence rate of seeds by after-ripening time did not show when the seeds gathered after 25th July.

  • To observe the effects of seed matriconditioning on the emergence, plumule growth, and seed physiological properties of normal and aged seeds of three corn(Zea mays L.) genotypes (dent, sugary, and shrunken-2), normal and artificially aged seeds were matriconditioned at 50, 75, 100, and 125% moisture contents of vermiculite at $25^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours and the germinability was examined at $25^{\circ}C$ and in cold test (7 days at 1$0^{\circ}C$followed by $25^{\circ}C$). Emergence rate, emergence speed, and plumule growth were smaller in the order of dent>sugary>shrunken-2. Matriconditioning did not affect the emergence rate of normal dent and sugary seeds, while it enhanced emergence speed and plumule growth. In contrast, the emergence rate, emergence speed, and plumule growth of normal shrunken-2 and aged seeds of all genotypes were enhanced as the moisture content of vermiculite increased up to 125% both at $25^{\circ}C$ and in cold test. Matriconditioning promoted $\alpha$-amylase activity and DNA and soluble protein contents, while it reduced the leakage of total sugars and electrolytes from the seeds when soaked in water.

  • Ricania sp. lay eggs into the new twigs of blueberry and suck nutrients causing growth retardation and a sooty mold symptom. This study was conducted to investigate the emergence success and developmental period of overwintered eggs of Ricania sp. under the seven constant temperatures from 10 to $34^{\circ}C$ by $4^{\circ}C$ intervals (14L:10D). We also monitored the emergence time of the Ricania sp. nymph at blueberry by 3 ~ 4 day interval using a modified leaf clip cage. Development times from the overwintered egg to $1^{st}$ nymph were 107.1, 54.5, 33.9, 25.3, 25.1 and 16.7 days and the emergence successes were 23.1, 30.8, 13.8, 21.7, 11.9, and 0.6% at 14, 18, 22, 26, 30 and $34^{\circ}C$, respectively except at $10^{\circ}C$. The developmental periods were decreased with increasing temperatures. First emergence date of the nymphs in the field was between 19 and 22 May, and the average emergence success was 19.6%. The present study might be helpful to establish the management strategy of Ricania sp. based on the biological characteristic.
