See What You Want to See: Motivational Influences on Visual Perception,”

by Emily Balcetis , David Dunning - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, , 2006
"... People's motivational states-their wishes and preferences-influence their processing of visual stimuli. In 5 studies, participants shown an ambiguous figure (e.g., one that could be seen either as the letter B or the number 13) tended to report seeing the interpretation that assigned them to o ..."

that participants truly saw the interpretation they reported rather than simply reporting the preferred interpretation. Study 5 added a procedural twist to affirm that participants saw only the interpretation they usually wanted to see as they viewed the stimulus and that it was not the case that they saw both

SIMULATION, DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF MOBILE WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR MIGRATORY BIRD TRACKING

by Bird Tracking, William P. Bennett, William P., Development, Deployment Of, Mobile Wireless Sensor, William P. Bennett, William P. Bennett, Adviser Mehmet, C. Vuran , 2012
"... This thesis presents CraneTracker, a multi-modal sensing and communication system for monitoring migratory species at the continental level. By exploiting the robust and extensive cellular infrastructure across the continent, traditional mobile wireless sensor networks can be extended to enable reli ..."

reliable, low-cost monitoring of migratory species. The developed multi-tier architecture yields ecologists with unconventional behavior in-formation not furnished by alternative tracking systems at such a large scale and for a low-cost. The simulation, development and implementation of the Crane

Indicators for Social and Economic Coping Capacity - Moving Toward a Working Definition of Adaptive Capacity”, Wesleyan-CMU Working Paper.

by Gary Yohe , Richard S J Tol , Gary Yohe , 2001
"... Abstract This paper offers a practically motivated method for evaluating systems' abilities to handle external stress. The method is designed to assess the potential contributions of various adaptation options to improving systems' coping capacities by focusing attention directly on the u ..."

but relatively certain over the foreseeable future, however, we might lower the factor assigned to levies to 0 or 1 but hold the dredging option at 3 or 4. And if the systems had access to significant resources from home or abroad, then we might give values of 4 or 5 to all three options. In any case

i A TRANSIENT COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMIC STUDY OF A LABORATORY-SCALE FLUORINE

by Ryno Pretorius, Supervisor Prof, P. L. Crouse, Electrolysis Cell
"... Fluorine gas is produced industrially by electrolysing hydrogen fluoride in a potassium acid fluoride electrolyte. Fluorine is produced at the carbon anode, while hydrogen is produced at the mild-steel cathode. The fluorine produced has a wide range of uses, most notably in the nuclear industry wher ..."
