Cixin Liu’s ‘The Remembrance of Earth’s Past’ Trilogy: The End of All Things by Grzegorz Trębicki

“…The paper first provides a summary of the previous discussion, especially the modified description of the key generic traits of ‘the space opera of a great crisis,’ and then conducts a more detailed, comparative analysis of the two representative and essential, yet contrasting achievements of the genre in question: Liu’s trilogy The Remembrance of Earth’s Past and Simmon’s tetralogy Hyperion Cantos, in respect to the worldviews that inform them, respectively, as well as their narrative structures. It is suggested that the narrative structures of both works are considerably influenced by their respective worldviews and that, paradoxically, the apparently crude and simple narration of The Remembrance of Earth’s Past may be viewed as a conscious literary operation aimed at enhancing the trilogy’s message. …”

The Role of Extratropical Pacific in Crossing ENSO Spring Predictability Barrier by Yingying Zhao, Yishuai Jin, Jianping Li, Antonietta Capotondi

“…Using an empirical dynamical model – Linear Inverse Model (LIM), we find that the dynamics of the northern and southern extratropical Pacific can significantly and equally weaken the Eastern Pacific (EP)‐ENSO SPB, while the North Pacific is more important for weakening the Central Pacific (CP)‐ENSO SPB. The evolution of the extratropical optimum initial structures illustrates the different roles of the northern and southern extratropical Pacific in crossing EP and CP ENSO SPBs and demonstrates the decisive role that the South Pacific initial condition plays in ENSO diversity. …”
