Target atmospheric CO2: where should humanity aim?

by James Hansen , Makiko Sato , Pushker Kharecha , David Beerling , Valerie Masson-Delmotte , Mark Pagani , Maureen Raymo , Dana L Royer , James C Zachos - Open Atmospheric Science Journal, , 2008
"... Paleoclimate data show that climate sensitivity is ~3°C for doubled CO 2 , including only fast feedback processes. Equilibrium sensitivity, including slower surface albedo feedbacks, is ~6°C for doubled CO 2 for the range of climate states between glacial conditions and icefree Antarctica. Decreasi ..."

APPLICATION OF THE PEROVSKITE CERAMICS TO CONDITIONING OF THE LONG-LIVED FRACTION OF HLW

by N. E. Cherniavskaya, S. V. Chizhevskaya, A. V. Ochkin, S. V. Stefanovsky
"... High level waste (HLW) partitioning concept includes separation of a long-lived fraction following by its immobilization in ceramics. Improved process flow sheet suggested for implementation at PA “Mayak ” implies production of a long-lived HLW fraction with rare earth elements (REE) as major compon ..."

Whom You Know Matters: Venture Capital Networks and Investment Performance,

by Yael Hochberg , Alexander Ljungqvist , Yang Lu , Steve Drucker , Jan Eberly , Eric Green , Yaniv Grinstein , Josh Lerner , Laura Lindsey , Max Maksimovic , Roni Michaely , Maureen O'hara , Ludo Phalippou Mitch Petersen , Jesper Sorensen , Per Strömberg Morten Sorensen , Yael Hochberg , Johnson - Journal of Finance , 2007
"... Abstract Many financial markets are characterized by strong relationships and networks, rather than arm's-length, spot-market transactions. We examine the performance consequences of this organizational choice in the context of relationships established when VCs syndicate portfolio company inv ..."

See Section IV.C for company-level models that control explicitly for exit market conditions. 18 spirit of their results, we find that funds subsequently perform significantly worse the more

Impact of regional climate change on human health.

by Jonathan A Patz , Diarmid Campbell-Lendrum , Tracey Holloway , Jonathan A Foley , 2005
"... The World Health Organisation estimates that the warming and precipitation trends due to anthropogenic climate change of the past 30 years already claim over 150,000 lives annually. Many prevalent human diseases are linked to climate fluctuations, from cardiovascular mortality and respiratory illne ..."

Longer-term effects of Head Start

by Eliana Garces , Duncan Thomas , Janet Currie Ucla , Nber - American Economic Review , 2002
"... Abstract Public early intervention programs like Head Start are often justified as investments in children. Yet nothing is known about the long-term effects of Head Start. This paper draws on unique data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics to provide new evidence on the effects of Head Start on ..."

MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN THE LUNGS OF RATS LIVING UNDER COMPRESSED AIR CONDITIONS*

by F. J. C. Smith, Granville A. Bennett, J. W. Heim, Am C. K. Drinker
"... Previous papers (1, 2) have described the apparatus and technique used by the authors in prolonged experiments upon the effects of high oxygen tensions on rats. The structural changes produced in the lungs of animals living in an environment having a high oxygen tension, particularly those accompany ..."

The carbon balance of tropical, temperate and boreal forests.

by Y Malhi , D D Baldocchi , P G Jarvis , Rd6 - Plant Cell and Environment, , 1999
"... ABSTRACT Forest biomes are major reserves for terrestrial carbon, and major components of global primary productivity. The carbon balance of forests is determined by a number of component processes of carbon acquisition and carbon loss, and a small shift in the magnitude of these processes would ha ..."

-hollow microtopography dominated by peat moss (Sphagnum spp.), with some mixed feather mosses in drier areas. The living moss overlay a 2-10 cm thick layer of dead moss, which in turn overlay dense acidic peat. Away from hummocks the soil was generally anaerobic and waterlogged. There was no permafrost at this site

Conditions for the growth of a long-lived shallow crustal magma chamber below Mount Pelee volcano (Martinique, Lesser Antilles Arc)

by Catherine Annen, Section Sciences Terre, Université De Genève
"... The compositional homogeneity of silicic andesites emitted during the 13,500-year-long last eruptive cycle of Mount Pelee suggests that the physical state of the magma chamber was largely unmodified during this period. Experimental phase equilibria on Mount Pelee recent products indicate that pre-er ..."

-eruptive magma temperatures and pressures were in the range of 875–900°C and 2 ± 0.5 kbar, respectively. The estimated average eruption rate was 7.5 × 10−4 km3/a with an average volume of about 0.3 km3 per eruption. An analytical model for a spherical magma chamber indicates that a magma flux of 4–5 × 10−4 km3/a

CLICC: A New Approach to the Compilation of Common Lisp Programs to C

by O. Burkart, W. Goerigk, H. Knutzen , 1992
"... We describe an implementation technique for Common Lisp application programs on a large variety of small computers. A strict subset of the programming language Common Lisp, called Common Lisp 1 , is defined, and we describe a compiler from Common Lisp 1 to C, called CLICC, which we successfully u ..."
