White Hurricane
In early November 1913, not quite 19 months after the loss of the Titanic in midatlantic, an autumn gale descended on the Great Lakes. Gales of November - like the one that sank the Edmund Fitzgerald in the 1970s - are a fact of life for Great Lakes mariners, but this one was anything but ordinary. Meteorologists now believe that a blast of cold polar air met a warm, moist air mass entrained in a low-pressure cell moving up from the Gulf of Mexico through the U.S. heartland, and the result was a violent weather bomb and the worst recorded storm in Great Lakes history. The storm lasted four days, with sustained winds as high as 75 miles per hour, freezing temperatures, white-out blizzard conditions, and mountainous seas. U.S. Weather Bureau) issued storm warnings on Friday morning, November 7, the warnings contained no hint of anything more than 50-mile-per-hour winds for Friday and Saturday. Most ships were making their final trips of the season; their captains knew that as autumn turned to winter the weather would only get worse, and then the lakes would freeze. Across the Great Lakes, hundreds of ships left port that weekend, heading directly into the jaws of what became a survival storm. On the ocean, with sea room, a well-found ship can often survive by running off before a storm until it blows out. On the Great Lakes there is never sufficient sea room. In the driving snow, ship masters could only guess where the treacherous shores lay. Ships iced up and became topheavy; some turned turtle. By Monday evening 19 ships had sunk, another two dozen were driven ashore, and at least 238 sailors had lost their lives. second-story eaves, and facing shortages of milk, bread, and meat, was confronting the worst natural disaster in its history. White Hurricane recreates the four-day storm with narrative intensity and factual depth. To make sense of this big, sprawling, multifaceted story, author David Brown develops it chronologically and focuses on the most exciting human dramas. One or two ships in each of the four hardest hit lakes - Superior, Huron, Michigan, and Erie - carry the narrative, while other disasters are reported more briefly as they occur. original and secondary sources the richest, most exciting, most mysterious, and most humanly moving stories. The destructive impacts ashore - especially the privations in Cleveland - weave another narrative strand. The U.S. Weather Bureau and the U.S. Coast Guard owe their existence in part to the Storm of 1913. Like Isaac's Storm and The Heart of the Sea, White Hurricane is both thrilling narrative and scrupulous history. This is the book that carries The Perfect Storm to the heart of America, and David Brown, a Great Lakes mariner and writer and the author of The Last Log of the Titanic, is the ideal guide.

China’s Future Transport
This book aims to analyze the various factors that underlie the latest fuel cell heavy-duty vehicles (FCHDVs) development in China. Current trends like China's carbon strategy "Carbon Peaking by 2030, and Carbon Neutral by 2060", and the 14th Five-year plan on new energy development all signaled the grand start on China's energy sustainable transition. The transportation sector is one of the biggest CO2 emitters in this system. It has been estimated that 1 standard diesel heavy-duty vehicle's emission could potentially account for that of 100 normal gasoline-powered passenger vehicles'. Thus, it is imperative to decarbonize China's heavy transportation sector. FCHDVs, like the one of the near-zero emission transport, gradually gained attractions in the energy industry. This book has two objectives: Objective 1 investigates not only the internal factors which shaped FCHDVs' strategic position from purchasing price, environment, structural efficiency, and performance but also the external factors which might influence the core of FCHDVs' penetration --- hydrogen cost and stations. Objective 2 research on the comprehensive comparisons between FCHDVs, diesel HDVs, and battery HDVs from fleet operators' perspective. The purpose of this objective is to imitate the decision-making process in the real world situation. Then an outlook of the future is presented to show the potential future of new energy HDVs' penetrations. We hope this book offers you a fresh mind into understanding the complexity of transportation transition and helps you and your organizations formulate a better decision for the future.
