This article addresses how individuals make sense of their organization's response to a nontraditional and emotional strategic issue. The reported research also concerned microprocesses involved in organizational adaptation. We describe how the Port Authority of New York and New |ersey, a regional transportation agency, dealt with the many homeless people at its facilities and use that descript...

Motor control theories have proposed that the brain controls movements through internal models which perform two reciprocal computations: given the motor action, predict sensory consequences (forward model) and given the desired sensory states, generate the appropriate motor action (inverse model). To produce accurate movements, the brain must continually calibrate or adapt these models. In thi...

Neuropsychological case studies suggest the existence of two functionally separate visual streams: the ventral pathway, central for object recognition; and the dorsal pathway, engaged in visually guided actions. However, a clear dissociation between the functions of the two streams has not been decisively shown in intact humans. In this study, we demonstrate dissociation between dorsal and vent...

News media are the public’s primary source about risks such as climate change, but traditional journalistic approaches to change have failed build support for collective social responses. Solutions journalism, an emerging practice focused on credible stories responses societal problems, may offer alternate approach. From online experiment with a convenience sample of U.S. undergraduates (N = 34...

two-dimensional euler equations have been solved on an unstructured grid. an upwind finite volume scheme, based on roes flux difference splitting method, is used to discretize the equations. using advancing front method, an initial delaunay triangulation has been made. the adaptation procedure involves mesh enrichment coarsening in regions of flow with high low gradients of flow properties, acc...

Socio-ecological systems have increasingly faced climate-change impacts, which adversely affected the lives and property of inhabitants. The present study aims to prioritize adaptation actions along an altitudinal gradient (<1200 m asl (Zone A), 1201–1800 B), >1801 C)) in Pauri District, Uttarakhand. A cross-sectional survey research design was employed action from 545 randomly selected h...

"How far are we in implementing climate change and health action in the WHO European Region?" This was the question addressed to representatives of WHO European Member States of the working group on health in climate change (HIC). Twenty-two Member States provided answers to a comprehensive questionnaire that focused around eight thematic areas (Governance; Vulnerability, impact and adaptation ...
