The ability of regional air quality models to skilfully represent pollutant distributions throughout the atmospheric column is important to enabling their skilful prediction at the surface.This provides a requirement for model evaluation at elevated altitudes, though observation datasets available for this purpose are limited.This is particularly t

In this paper, we provide a welfare ranking for the equilibria of the supply function and quantity competitions in a differentiated product duopoly with demand uncertainty.We prove that the expected consumer surplus is always higher under the supply function competition, irrespective of whether the (duopolistic) products are substitutes, complement

Porcelain and plastic materials constitute bulk of household wastes.Owing to resistibility and slow degradability that accounts for higher residence time, these materials qualify as potential hazardous wastes.Retention of water permits these wastes to form a congenial biotope for the breeding of different vector mosquitoes.Thus porcelain and plasti

The purpose of this research article is to perform a greenhouse gas (GHG) impact assessment using a lifecycle analysis of a cold-ironing solution for vessels at anchorage in a retrofitted barge and Stencil and Cookie Cutter Sets a marine genset combusting biomethane in dual fuel mode.A lifecycle methodology is developed based on the 4th Internation

Abstract The five modes are a list of tools used by ancient sceptics to guide dogmatic people towards suspending their judgement.Attributed to Agrippa (of uncertain date) and used extensively by Sextus Empiricus (2nd or 3rd century CE), these modes are still widely discussed today by epistemologists and specialists in ancient philosophy.Scholars di
