Forging the Third Pole: Permafrost Science and the Trans-Polar History of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, 1956–2006 (講者: 哈佛大學Jason Chan先生)

本活動將以英語進行,以下活動資料只提供英文版本。 Online Registration Date: April 28, 2026 Time: 4:15 p.m. – 5:45 p.m. Venue: CPD-3.29, 3/F, The Jockey Club Tower, Centennial Campus, The University of Hong Kong Piercing the “roof of the world”, the Qinghai-Tibet Railway is heralded in Chinese narratives as an engineering feat of the People’s Republic.
