One-for-One Period Policy and its Optimal Solution
In this paper we introduce the optimal solution for a simple and yet practical inventory policy with the important characteristic which eliminates the uncertainty in demand for suppliers. In this new policy which is different from the classical inventory policies, the time interval between any two consecutive orders is fixed and the quantity of each order is one. Assuming the fixed ordering cos...
متن کاملCool-skin simulation by a one-column ocean model
[1] A one-column ocean model is used to simulate the cool-skin effect of sea surface temperatures. Four schemes for determining the thickness of the cool skin are compared. It is established that all four schemes can capture the cool skin for wind speeds 7.5 m s ; however, for wind speeds > 7.5 m s , Artale et al.’s (2002) scheme performs better. This study demonstrates that the cool-skin effec...
متن کاملGeoengineering as Collective Experimentation
Geoengineering is defined as the 'deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climatic system with the aim of reducing global warming'. The technological proposals for doing this are highly speculative. Research is at an early stage, but there is a strong consensus that technologies would, if realisable, have profound and surprising ramifications. Geoengineering would seem to be an a...
متن کاملStratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering
In response to global warming, one suggested geoengineering response involves creating a cloud of particles in the stratosphere to reflect some sunlight and cool Earth. While volcanic eruptions show that stratospheric aerosols cool the planet, the volcano analog also warns against geoengineering because of responses such as ozone depletion, regional hydrologic responses, whitening of the skies,...
متن کاملHow to govern geoengineering?
he Paris Agreement aims to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5° to 2°C above preindustrial temperature, but achieving this goal requires much higher levels of mitigation than currently planned. This challenge has focused greater attention on climate geoengineering approaches, which intentionally alter Earth’s climate system, as part of an overall response starting with radical mitigation. ...
