Assessing the moral hazard impact of mango farmers in Chabahar
ABSTRACT-The agricultural sector encompasses activities that are exposed to diverse risks. Risks in the agricultural sector are unavoidable but manageable. Crop insurance is a management tool in the agricultural sector. Crop insurance is a strategy to cope with the production risks of the agricultural sector and to secure farmers’ income in the future. Mango is a major horticul...
متن کاملPlanetary Transits and Tidal Evolution
Transiting planets are generally close enough to their host stars that tides may govern their orbital and thermal evolution of these planets. We present calculations of the tidal evolution of recently discovered transiting planets and discuss their implications. The tidal heating that accompanies this orbital evolution can be so great that it controls the planet’s physical properties and may ex...
متن کاملAsteroid Impact Tsunami: A Probabilistic Hazard Assessment
We investigate the generation, propagation, and probabilistic hazard of tsunami spawned by oceanic asteroid impacts. The process first links the depth and diameter of parabolic impact cavities to asteroid density, radius, and impact velocity by means of elementary energy arguments and crater scaling rules. Then, linear tsunami theory illustrates how these transient cavities evolve into vertical...
متن کاملSecular Evolution of Planetary Systems in Binaries
The orbital eccentricity of a single planet in a stellar binary system with a sufficiently large mutual inclination angle is known to oscillate on a secular timescale through the Kozai mechanism. We have investigated the effects of the Kozai mechanism on double-planet systems in binaries. The evolutionary sequence of a pair of planets under the influence of a binary companion is fairly complex....
متن کاملThe Evolution of HAZARD, the Fire Hazard Assessment Methodology
The United States alone spends about $700B per year on new and renovated construction. About 20% of this is to assure safety from unwanted fires, which includes the cost of insurance, to make families whole after fires and to recover from business loss. This is an enormous cost to endure every year. Combined with a growing construction market in other countries, this presents a major opportunit...
