The shortfalls in the quality, quantity, and reliability of agriculture performance data are neither new nor confined to Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It is, however, a more dire challenge given the overwhelming importance of agriculture in the economies of most countries in the region in terms of food security and poverty reduction. While farmers’ self-reported (SR) data on crop outputs and farm size

Background and objective: We established prognostic nomograms incorporating prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) parameters standardised by Prostate Cancer Molecular Imaging Standardized Evaluation (PROMISE; PPP1). Here, we develop an updated PPP2 risk score from a large international multicentre registry study. Methods: We included 6128 prostate cancer pati

Failure in wood is commonly considered as a sign of properly chosen adhesive for wood adhesive joints. It is argued that as the adhesive is stronger than the surrounding wood material, no concern has to be given to the adhesive properties in joint design. However, by means of theoretical arguments in combination with experimental experience in the present study, it is stated that local bond line p

In the Eastern Alps (Austria) several marine successions, which were deposited ranging from shallow shelf to bathyal slope and abyssal basin, provide detailed records across the Paleocene/Eocene-boundary. These records indicate a two-step event starting with a prominent sea-level fall and followed by climatic changes. At the northern and southern shelves that fringed the Penninic Basin, the shallo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det första målet med detta arbete är att beskriva och diskutera järnålderssamhällets utveckling i Skåne. Det andra målet är att diskutera förhållandet mellan Skåne och angränsande områden. Järnålderssamhället var hierarkiskt uppbyggt och styrdes av olika typer av ledare, vanligen hövdingar eller kungar.

To maintain and develop the social system different social groups acted in society.

Klimatförändringen är ett fenomen som på ett aldrig tidigare skådat sätt kommer att sätta press på rättssystem världen runt. Det finns ett behov av att utforma rättsliga instrument och institutioner för att hantera förändringar i miljön men också av att utforma själva lagstiftningen att vara flexibel och anpassningsbar i förhållande till föränderliga förhållanden i naturens tillstånd. För att säkeClimate change is a phenomenon that in an unprecedented way will put pressure on the legal systems worldwide. Not only is there a need for designing the necessary legal instruments and institutions to handle changes in the environment but also for the law itself to be flexible and able to adapt under preconditions in nature which are uncertain. To ensure that the legislation is resilient enough to

Most counterfeit goods are luxury goods bearing a well-known trademark. The counterfeit goods also can be protected by copyright/design protection. WIPO Intellectual Property Handbook: Policy, Law and Use (WIPO 2004, second edition) A counterfeit trademark is defined in Article 51 of the TRIPS as the following: &quot&semicCounterfeit trademark goods shall mean any goods, including packagin

Development of innovative drugs is a lengthy, risky and expensive enterprise, and the research-based pharmaceutical industry depends uniquely on intellectual property rights, e.g. patents and regulatory data protection to support its investments in drug development activities. After the expiry of intellectual property rights for original drugs, generic drugs may enter the market. A generic drug is

Psouni and Apetroaia (2010) have recently introduced the Secure Base Script Test,SBST, for middle childhood. Based on Waters and Rodrigues-Doolabh’s (2004)Narrative Script Assessment for assessing secure base script knowledge in adults,Psouni and Apetroaia’s method is a narrative task in which children create short narratives by making use of four prompt word outlines that loosely suggest prototyp

In this study we combine for the first time silicon (Si) isotope compositions of small mixed diatom species (δ30SibSiO2) and of large handpicked mono-generic (i.e. genus=Coscinodiscus) diatom samples (δ30SiCoscino) with diatom assemblages extracted from marine sediments in the Peruvian upwelling region in order to constrain present and past silicate utilisation. The extension of a previous core-to
