Summary/Abstract |
The article offers information on Chinese cruise missiles, the production rate for which is increasing every year. Possible Chinese naval deployment of a long-range land-attack cruise missile may be compared with the initial U.S. Navy deployment of Tomahawks aboard surface ships, including battleships, in the 1980s Chinese may plan to use their cruise missiles in the way the Tomahawks are used to hit particular precision targets from unexpected axes.

Summary/Abstract |
It is time for the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard to host an Arctic forum and games at the U.S. Naval War College (NWC) involving all the Arctic countries: Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Russia, and the United States. Hosting the navies and coast guards of the eight states in Newport would be a seminal forum. Such a venue would send a message to the world that the Arctic states collectively are paying close attention to maritime security in a region undergoing significant transformation and receiving global interest.

Summary/Abstract |
The article discusses the pollution of the oceans with increasing level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the sea water. Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in about 1750, man's activities have loaded the atmosphere with great quantities of CO2. The effect of excess CO2 on marine life is that a more acidic ocean reduces the ability of organisms to extract calcium carbonate from the seawater.
