Abstract:
Energy storage systems are currently expanding worldwide. This is seen as a result of an increased amount of renewable intermittent energy in the electrical grid. Energy storage is mainly used to balance the supply and demand and increase the reliability of the grid. Energy storage is also used for applications such as heating and cooling of buildings, in electric vehicles and in portable electronic devices.   This project aims to give an introduction and a general overview to most of the current energy storage technologies used globally. This has been done by providing concise descriptions of

Abstract:
Fishing has become a major conservation threat to marine fishes. Effective conservation of threatened species requires timely conservation risk assessment and formulation of socio-economically viable policies. A fuzzy logic expert system is developed to predict the intrinsic vulnerability and depletion risk of marine fishes to fishing. Firstly, the expert system predicts intrinsic vulnerability (i.e., fishes' inherent ability to withstand fishing mortality) from simple parameters of life history and ecology. Secondly, the system predicts the relative depletion risk of marine fishes from their

In recent years the interest in One Health issues has expanded in a truly amazing way, therefore, it is in our interest to present an overview of One Health projects globally, regarding the topics of zoonotic diseases

The role that South Africa has played in international affairs has grown immensely since the first democratic elections that were held in April 2004.

Abstract:
The transit shelter, the space where riders make the transition from open space to more controlled buses and trains, is in many cases the site of a public-private transaction. Here, government agencies contract private companies to build and maintain shelters in exchange for governmental allowance of advertising in these locations. This dual purpose—the shelter serves concurrently as protection for transit users and as a moneymaker—means the space is contested, with economic and social needs often at odds.

Abstract:
Over the last four decades national environmental groups have become an important means of political participation for many British citizens. Since the mid-1980s these organizations have established a number of local groups. There are still some gaps in our understanding of these groups, particularly relating to participation at the grass-roots level. This investigation examines the British environmental movement, focusing on those who become coordinators of local groups, and attempts to find the correlates of their environmental activism.
