This study investigated modal choice and why shippers confronted with explicit favourable data do not automatically select more environmentally acceptable and, potentially, cheaper modes of freight transport, namely sea and rail.

Abstract:

This thesis analyzes the Western missile defense initiatives and their role in Russia&#039<br>s relations with NATO and the U.S. The main question of this thesis is whether the Western missile defense initiatives have paved the way for a new era of cooperation between Russia and the West or not. The main argument of this thesis is that Russia has failed to collaborate with NATO in a meaningful manner on missile defense issue as Russia has not adjusted its security policies and nuclear strategy, which are still based on the Cold War thinking, to the changing conditions of global security in the

In the first experiment, an MNB and an SVM classifier are trained with the Large Movie Review Dataset (Maas et al., 2011) with a varying number of samples to determine how training data size affects classifier performance. In the second experiment, the classifiers are trained with 300 positive, negative, an

In order to accomplish this it will be argued

Abstract:

Previous studies have discussed contemporary Russian foreign policy as driven by power politics, taking an instrumentalist view of its rhetoric as a set of tools utilised by political elites to justify policy preferences. This is contained in the argument that Russia's insistence on non-interference and its language on civilian protection are, at the very least, contradictory. By contrast, the thesis argues that these seeming contradictions are symptomatic of partial engagements with Russia's discursive context. It demonstrates that there is more continuity than discrepancy in the way Russian

Abstract This work focuses on the Stone Age of north-eastern Europe between 5500 and 1800 calBC.

Still, despite more than 100 years of archaeological research, few inter-regional studies exist.

Now invasive within some riparian ecosystems in the western US, Russian olive has been declared noxious in the states of Colorado and New Mexico.

abstract: The canon of music performed in recitals by American trombonists contains very few works for trombone by composers from Russia and the Soviet Union. Trombonists in the United States periodically perform trombone solos by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Alexei Lebedev, Vladislav Blazhevich, Gregory Kalinkovich, Alexander Tcherepnin, and Eugene Reiche. But these works represent a very small percentage of trombone solos performed in recitals in the United States, and compositions written after 1960 by composers in the U.S.S.R. are completely absent from recital programs. The purpose of this pr

Abstract:

The growing global population and the ongoing loss of arable soils increase the pressure on agricultural production. In conjunction with climate change, this causes new challenges for agricultural production systems worldwide and requires a more sustainable approach for the future. The concept of ‘sustainable land management’ (SLM) is known as a concretisation of the sustainable development goals in the field of agriculture. The Western Siberian grain belt covers 1 million km² in Asiatic Russia and is of global importance for agricultural production as well as an important carbon sink and of i

Abstract:

Why did the Tsarist Empire opt for different governance strategies in each of the territories of the Western Borderlands (here defined as Poland-Lithuania, the Baltic territories, Finland, and Hetman Ukraine)? The existing political science literature tends to reduce such a question to a distinction between direct and indirect rule, usually developing in the context of a Western European maritime empire. This literature falls short of explaining the Tsarist case and requires the addition of intervening variables concerning the role of local elites and leadership choice. Employing an interdisci
