It has been suggested in recent years that EU policies towards Northern Europe could serve as a potential model for the EU’s relations with its other neighbours. This paper focuses on two particular EU policies towards non-EU members in Northern Europe: the Northern Dimension (ND) initiative and the European Economic Area (EEA), which are analysed in light of two broader themes: first, how the ...

In this paper, the performance of nanofiltration membrane process in removing Pb(II) from aqueous solution was modeled by the pore flow-concentration polarization model. The model was fabricated based on the simultaneous resolving of Extended Nernst–Planck equation(ENP), film theory, and osmotic pressure model. The effects of various operational parameters such as the applied pressure, feed con...

Between 1967 and 2007, 23 seasons of shore-based counts the Eastern North Pacific (ENP) stock gray whales (Eschrichtius robustus) were conducted throughout all or most southbound migration near Carmel, California. Population estimates have been derived from these surveys using a variety techniques that adapted as data collection protocol evolved. The subsequent time series was used to evaluate ...

For nursing students in the vocational education system Taiwan, English-language writing skills, whether for general or specific purposes, have long been ignored, which may jeopardize their success medical-oriented courses and future careers. This study designed a note-writing course (NNWC) university explored teaching outcomes of its implementation. The three main objectives were to (a) examin...

Endotoxins, also referred to as pyrogens, are lipopolysaccharides (LPS) present in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, and represent one of the most dangerous microbiological contaminants in water for hemodialysis and intravenous infusion. A method is presented for the simultaneous detection of endotoxins and other bacterial lysis contaminating species in purified water for parenteral...

one of the important issues which deals simultaneously with the european :union: (eu) enlargement policy and its common foreign and security policy, is eu's policy towards its neighbors. after eu enlargement. it is a crossroad of eu foreign, security, development and trade policies which aims at europeanization and creating a ring of friends around its borders where good governance, political a...

Since Pakistan is vulnerable to changing climatic conditions, the country needs emergency measures at every level mitigate their effect. Many studies have addressed Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) macro or institutional level, but its effect micro-level largely ignored in contemporary literature. The present study aims filling this gap by highlighting role of CSR on Environmental Performa...

This work compares the contributions of synoptic, intraseasonal, and interannual components large-scale parameters to tropical cyclone (TC) genesis over North Indian Ocean (NIO) from April December 1979 2020. A composite analysis is employed with respect TC time location. It shown that most TCs occur when total sea surface temperature (SST) between 28 30 °C SST anomalies in three ranges are sma...
