Climate change and river flow in partially-glacierised catchments
Thesis
Davenport, J. Climate change and river flow in partially-glacierised catchments. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Climatic and hydrological data for stations in the Himalayan headwaters of the Ganges and Indus rivers were obtained where available from national meteorological institutes and bodies responsible for river flow gauging. The aim was to develop a datab... Read More about Climate change and river flow in partially-glacierised catchments.

A strategic approach to the implementation of management by objectives in the government sector in the sultanate of Oman
Thesis
Alshaqsi, M. A strategic approach to the implementation of management by objectives in the government sector in the sultanate of Oman. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Management by Objectives (MBO) is becoming an increasingly important management approach as it offers an obvious goal, specifies job responsibilities and reduces ambiguity through continuous performance feedback. The international implementation of M... Read More about A strategic approach to the implementation of management by objectives in the government sector in the sultanate of Oman.

Temperature variations of runoff from highly-glacierised alpine basins
Thesis
Bolton, L. Temperature variations of runoff from highly-glacierised alpine basins. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The temperature of meltwater emerging from the portal of an alpine glacier is usually around 1°C, irrespective of discharge, but warming with distance downstream is influenced by both flow as well as the availability of heat energy. Warmer conditions... Read More about Temperature variations of runoff from highly-glacierised alpine basins.

High molecular weight alkyl-allyl cobalttricarbonyl complexes and use thereof for preparing dielectric thin films
Patent

A method for forming a cobalt-containing thin film by a vapor deposition process is provided. The method comprises using at least one precursor corresponding in structure to Formula (I); wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are independently C.sub.2-C.sub.8-a...

Shark-dust: high-throughput DNA sequencing of processing residues unveils widespread trade in threatened sharks and rays
Journal Article

Illegal fishing, unregulated bycatch, and market demand for certain products (e.g. fins) are largely responsible for the rapid global decline of shark and ray populations. Controlling trade of endangered species remains difficult due to product varie...
