Nan Lin and social capital
Nan Lin’s work on social capital is a significant, unique contribution. My purpose here is to explain that statement by looking at the work in historical context. Figure 2.1 is an index for much of the story to be told. The horizontal axis is time, beginning in 1975 when Nan Lin was at the State University of New York at Albany (now the University of Albany), through his 1990 move to Duke University, and on to 2010
Come tradurre Milo De Angelis
The section presents the Chinese translation of four poems by Milo De Angelis, who is
among the best Italian contemporary poets. The poems are taken from the collection "Incontri e agguati" (Mondadori, 201 5). The texts are both in Italian and Chinese in parallel
text. Yang Lin, with the help of Geng Jiang (Chinese musician and poet), took care of the
translation.
The section opens with a note made by the translation group that analyses the processes
of the transposition of the dense poetic language of De Angelis into the Chinese language.
There follows an enlightening letter from Milo De Angelis to the translation group. The four
poems in Chinese and Italian complete the section

Holotype ♂, paratypes 8♂ and 20♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Chongqing, Wulong, Tudi Town, Tiansheng Village, Xiaodong Cave, 29°31.853'N, 107°50.817'E, altitude 1050 m, 17 October 2010, L. Dou and Y. Lin leg. Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D).

Topotypes 11♂ 25♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Guizhou, Suiyang, Wenquan Town, Guihua Village, Hejiao Cave, 28°15´N, 107°17´E, altitude 695 m, 17 April 2015, Y. Lin and H. Yang leg. Diagnosis. With the exception of S. wulongensis, male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from all other congeners by the embolus with an asymmetrically furcate end (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6a–d, 6g –h), and female of S. bifurcata differs by the stubby, sclerotized central process (Fig. 8A vs. Figs. 5C–D, 7A–C, 9A–B). S. bifurcata similar to S. wulongensis in the shape of palpal bulb and the configuration of vulva, but male of S. bifurcata can be distinguished from that of S. wulongensis by the starting position of embolus (Fig. 6F vs. Fig. 6E, the position indicated by the blue arrow) and the unequal length of branches of embolic tip (Fig. 6f vs. Fig. 6e); female of S. bifurcata separated by the smaller, “Ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the shorter central process (Fig. 8A vs. Fig. 8B).

Singaporemma banxiaoensis Lin & Li 2014
Singaporemma banxiaoensis Lin & Li, 2014 Figures 6B–b, 7C Singaporemma banxiaoensis Lin & Li, 2014: 42, figs 4–6, 16C–D, 20A Examined material. Holotype ♂, paratypes 1♂ and 1♀ (IZCAS), CHINA: Guangxi, Pingxiang, Xiashi Town, Xinming Village, Banxiaotun, Banxiao Cave, 22°5.542'N, 106°52.148'E, altitude 175 m, 26 July 2011, X. Wang leg. Diagnosis. Male of this species is similar to S. halongense (Fig. 6A) and S. lenachanae (Fig. 6D), but can be distinguished from the latter two by the narrower, pointed embolic tip (Fig. 6b vs. Fig. 6a, 6d), and by the vestigial white eyespots lacking black ocular base in the both sexes (see Lin & Li, 2014: fig. 4G–H vs. Lin et al., 2017: figs 16E–F, 21A). Female is close to S. takensis sp. n. in having a similar configuration of vulva, but differs from the latter by the inverted triangular inner vulval plate, the wider, shorter central process (Fig. 7C vs. Fig. 5C–D). Description. See Lin & Li, 2014: 42. Distribution.

Spatial Chow-Lin Methods for Data Completion in Econometric Flow Models
Flow data across regions can be modeled by spatial econometric models, see LeSage and Pace (2009). Recently, regional studies became interested in the aggregation and disaggregation of flow models, because trade data cannot be obtained at a disaggregated level but data are published on an aggregate level. Furthermore, missing data in disaggregated flow models occur quite often since detailed measurements are often not possible at all observation points in time and space. In this paper we develop classical and Bayesian methods to complete flow data. The Chow and Lin (1971) method was developed for completing disaggregated incomplete time series data. We will extend this method in a general framework to spatially correlated flow data using the cross-sectional Chow-Lin method of Polasek et al. (2009). The missing disaggregated data can be obtained either by feasible GLS prediction or by a Bayesian (posterior) predictive density.Missing values in spatial econometrics, MCMC, non-spatial Chow-Lin (CL) and spatial Chow-Lin (SCL) methods, spatial internal flow (SIF) models, origin and destination (OD) data
Lowest electronic states of neutral and ionic LiN
We have investigated the potential energy curves (PECs) of the LiN heteronuclear diatomic molecule, including its ionic species LiN+ and LiN−, using explicitly correlated multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI-F12) calculations in conjunction with the correlation consistent quintuple- basis set. The effect of core–valence correlation, scalar relativistic effects, and the size of the basis sets has been investigated. A comprehensive set of spectroscopic constants determined based on the above-mentioned calculations are also reported for the lowest electronic states and all systems, including dissociation energies, harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies, and rotational constants. Additional parameters, such as the dipole moments, equilibrium spin-orbit constants, excitation energies, and rovibrational energy levels, are also documented. We found that the three triplet states of LiN, namely, X 3∑−, A 3Π, and 2 3∑−, exhibit substantial potential wells in the PEC diagrams, while the quintet states are repulsive in nature. The ground state of the anion also shows a deep potential well in the vicinity of its equilibrium geometry. In contrast, the ground and excited states of the cation are very loosely bound. Charge transfer properties of each of these states are also analyzed to obtain an in-depth understanding of the interatomic interactions. We found that the core–valence correlation has a substantial effect on the calculated spectroscopic constants.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Atmospheric Remote Sensin
