Abstract:
Agriculture is a major industry in California, with cool-season crops grown along the state’s coasts, warm-season crops grown in the hot deserts, and many temperate crops grown in the state’s valleys. In coastal communities such as Ventura County, the Calleguas Creek and the Santa Clara River watersheds have 50,000 and 60,000 irrigated acres of farm crops, respectively. These watersheds are considered impaired by nutrients, salts, pesticides, and other agricultural contaminants. Mitigation of chemical and sediment runoff through grower-implemented best management practices (BMPs) is therefore one of the highest priorities in the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board Basin Plan. A 3-year project was designed to assist Ventura County growers in meeting regional water quality objectives. The University of California Cooperative Extension Ventura County and the University of California, Riverside, collaborated with the Ventura County Resource Conservation District and the Ventura County Agricultural Irrigated Lands Group (VCAILG) to address three project goals: increase grower and landowner understanding of local agricultural water quality issues; identify gaps or deficiencies in current management practices in agricultural operations; and reduce the contribution of nutrients, pesticides, and other pollutants to impaired water bodies. To achieve these goals, 469 surveys of agricultural water quality management practices were collected to assess the extent of current adoption of BMPs. Over 160 growers who farm more than 14,000 acres that drain into Calleguas Creek and 7,000 acres that drain into the Santa Clara River watersheds were assisted. Using the survey, growers developed site-specific farm water quality plans and received on-farm recommendations for BMPs. Additionally, 12 water quality educational programs, “including demonstrations of successful BMPs,” were developed and more than 2500 copies of educational materials published by the University of California, the Resource Conservation District, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture were distributed at on-farm visits, workshops, and other grower events. The project resulted in improved understanding, by growers and landowners, of water quality issues and significantly increased the implementation of appropriate on-farm BMPs to protect water quality. Nearly 100 new BMPs primarily aimed at managing erosion, sediment movement, and irrigation runoff were identified and documented through annual reassessments for more than 8000 acres draining into Calleguas Creek. A total of 518 people attended the educational programs, and over 90% of participants who completed evaluations rated the programs highly. In the final year of the project, 75% of attendees indicated they plan to implement new BMPs within the next 5 years, especially in the areas of irrigation, erosion, and pest management.

Abstract:
Evaluation results of the Ventura County smart card Phase III field demonstration are presented to show the feasibility of using smart cards and other technology to provide an integrated fare medium across several transit operators. The evaluation addressed technical performance, user response, and institutional issues. Technical performance was affected by installation problems, equipment failures, and communications problems. Technical problems often were the outcome of institutional issues. Smart-card users were very satisfied with the new fare medium; however, transit patrons in Ventura County have very low incomes, many are not English speaking, and few transit users bought and used the cards. Overall, the demonstration suffered from the absence of clear roles and responsibilities as well as a lack of understanding of the complexity and demands of the technology.

Abstract:

Although the concept of mental health issues among foster youth has been researched since the early 1980s, a challenge for children and family services has been working with foster youth with mental health issues. This study explored factors relevant to mental health issues among foster youth in the County of Ventura between the ages of 14 and 18. This case review study included 50 cases of foster youth from the County of Ventura Children and Family Services Youth Services Division. It was found that 76% of foster youth suffer from various mental health disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, mood disorders, oppositional defiance disorder, and Pervasive Development Disorder). The most frequently noted was multiple disorders. No difference was found for the presence of a mental health disorder and ethnicity. There were also no significant differences between those with and without a mental health disorder in terms of years in the system or number of placements.

Full text
Abstract:
This professional project provides a much needed draft update to the existing Area Plan for North Ventura Avenue (last amended in 1990), an unincorporated area of the County that falls under the City of Ventura’s sphere of influence. New goals, policies and programs have been provided to supplement the goals, policies and programs of the current countywide General Plan for Ventura County (adopted in 2005). The supplemental goals, policies and programs proposed in this draft update apply specifically to North Ventura Avenue, and account for a pending annexation of the area by the City of Ventura. The overall aim of this project was to provide the Ventura County Planning Division with a draft update to the existing North Ventura Avenue Area Plan that reflects modern planning practice and theory. Sustainable growth and development for the area are the underlying goals of this proposed draft update. Reducing auto-dependency through the proposed adoption of a ‘mixed-use specific plan’ land use category represents the most pertinent recommendation of this draft update in aiming to achieve sustainable growth and development of the area in the future.

Full text
Abstract:

Child abuse and neglect often leads to a child's removal, necessitating the intervention of the Juvenile Dependency Court. Parents are provided with services aimed at mitigating the risk factors leading to the removal and safely facilitating reunification. Therefore, the purpose of this project was to develop a grant to fund a Safety Organized Practice training program focusing on family engagement for service providers contracted with Ventura County Children and Family Services. The proposed training program would provide specialized training to child welfare professionals in order to increase the quality of interventions provided by child welfare professionals, enhance the quality of their visitations with families, and help promote improved reunification rates. The potential funding source for this grant was the W.K. Kellogg Foundation as this program coincides with the foundation's focal beneficiaries. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant was not required for the successful completion of the project.

This Work Project studies the internationalization of non-profit organizations and applies it by developing recommendations for Social Entrepreneurship Institute‟s (IES) first international venture. A model of foreign market selection was used to choose among eight foreign potential markets based on a proximity approach. A market analysis on the selected market was performed to obtain the best decision regarding entry mode. This study concludes that Spain is the market considered to have more proximity with Portugal and therefore less risk for an international expansion. In the case analyzed, a non-equity joint venture is pointed as the safest entry mode.

Abstract:
The thesis explores the nature and determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Saudi Arabia over the period 1960-2005. Saudi Arabia is of interest as it lies between a traditional developed and developing country. The thesis utilises a unique project-based dataset on about 19,000 investments in the Kingdom, of which 5,000 involve foreign ownership. The data were supplied by the government of Saudi Arabia, the first time they have been released for study. Overall, the thesis makes three main contributions. First, it analyzes the nature of FDI in Saudi Arabia. The analysis shows that most FDI has occurred since the major liberalisation under the 2000 Foreign Investment Act, which is comparable in scale to total investment in domestic projects since 1960. By volume of FDI, the thesis highlights the importance of oil and related industries, although the vast majority of projects are non-oil related. These are principally in manufacturing, from nearby Arab states and located in the Middle region around Riyadh. Second, following a review of the relative literature on the determinants of FDI, the thesis analyzes the source characteristics of the investors by aggregating the data at the country level. It finds that a range of factors affect the number of foreign-owned projects, including size, distance, economic freedom and past investment levels, but much poorer explanations are found for the investment scale, possibly reflecting the dominance of the oil sector. Third, following a further literature review, it analyzes the effect of country political risk on the foreign equity share in joint ventures at the project level. Here, it finds that severe risk may actually increase the foreign equity share, which is attributed to the benefits that ownership brings in the form of control. Further, those projects in minority foreign ownership appear most sensitive to risk. These results contribute to a literature, which to date has focused almost solely on the FDI entry mode either as whole or joint venture.

Abstract:
A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Economics from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics
This paper conducts the first econometric analysis of determinants of greentech venture capital (VC) and private equity (PE) investments into renewable energy technology. Renewables are an industry which is still in development. The underlying technologies need to mature to eventually benefit from cost savings due to scale and learning effects. The required funding for energy technology is mainly provided by VC and PE investors. The results suggest that the investment volume can be further increased, if governments ensure a stable investment process from the entrance (eased by a solid R&D base which is funded by governments) to the exit (facilitated by ensuring a stable demand, for example through a CO2 tax or cap). The study further found, that investors are more concerned about the economic situation at the time of disinvestment, rather than the current state. Empirical evidence shows that the growth rate of the real interest rate, the oil price growth and population growth are significant indicators for investment volumes and stable across different setups, while the absolute value is not always.

Ozorhon, Beliz. "Modeling The Performance Of International Construction Joint Ventures." Phd thesis, METU, 2007. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12608945/index.pdf.

Full text
Abstract:
International joint ventures (IJVs) have become popular because of their importance as a strategic alternative in global competition. Construction companies consider IJVs as a vehicle to enter new markets and exploit business opportunities. Being a special type of strategic alliance, IJVs offer partnering companies to combine the distinctive competencies and the complementary resources. Despite the benefits associated with IJVs, such entities are very difficult to manage mainly due to their inherent complexity, involving a mixture of different cultures, managerial systems, philosophies, and attitudes. As a result of these difficulties, the failure rate of IJVs is generally high. Therefore, measurement of the performance of IJVs has been an important research topic for a few decades. However there is no consensus on an appropriate definition of the indicators and determinants of IJV performance in construction. In this study, a framework is proposed to model the IJV performance in construction industry. A multi-dimensional performance measure is developed and determinants influencing the level of performance are defined. In this context, a questionnaire survey was administered to Turkish construction companies that have established IJVs with foreign partners. The validity of the proposed drivers and measures of performance is investigated and relationships between them are analyzed using the structural equation modeling technique. The results point out the significance of the inter-partner fit and the quality of partner relations for a successful IJV operation. The findings of the study also suggest that project-related factors have a moderate influence on IJV performance. In a properly designed IJV structure, partners with compatible skills, resources, and cultures are found to maintain good relations and are expected to achieve greater IJV success.

Kang, Chung-Mai. "Do country-specific factors matter? : entry strategies of foreign venture capitals and investment criteria of VCs in China." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/24031.

Full text
Abstract:
Ever since IDGVC first established its venture capital fund in Beijing in the late 1980's, venture capitalists (VCs) have been debating whether US investment selection criteria should be revised for investments in China. On the one hand, those VCs with a foreign venture capital background, such as returnees (here referring to those Chinese with an educational background from a developed Western country) and foreign VCs believe that they can replicate their successful experiences of developed VC markets in China without too many amendments. On the other hand, local VCs claim that US practices do not suit China as they do not reflect sufficient knowledge and understanding of Chinese business practices. Twenty years on, the debate still shows no sign of abating. Indeed, investment competition between foreign VCs and Chinese VCs remains as intensive as ever (Zero2IPO Research Centre 2006). In the last two years, China has experienced progressive development in its venture capital presence internationally, largely due to the diversification of industries and companies attracting investments. The segments enjoying remarkable growth include high-tech enterprises as well as such industries as the construction, hotel and leisure, and retail segments. Several other sectors are also attracting increasing attention for VC investment, including outdoor media, green technology and innovations, online education and supplementary schooling, software start-ups and the hospital care system. Cleantech innovation is especially growing as the country rigorously explores solar power generation, new materials and clean production, seeking to ameliorate its water and air pollution, which far exceeds Western safety standards. The market has also matured significantly. Concerns about whether foreign investments would only serve to enhance the personal interests and pocketbooks of the local population, as opposed to enhancing the development of the investments, have subsided. The continuous growth of the Chinese economy and the middle class has also helped to prioritise innovation and attract foreign investment to China. Notably, in the past most economic improvements came from government-led programs; this trend is beginning to dissipate as growing numbers of foreign financiers come to see China's VC and PE market as a promising growth opportunity. No doubt the PRC's government will continue to create barriers to unlimited foreign investment in China, but many of the other factors that once hindered foreign investment into the country have become much more manageable. This thesis has its roots in the debate above and draws upon the background and experiences of the researcher in the field of venture capital. The researcher has over six years experience as an investment manager in listed companies in Taiwan and for three years served as managing director of Zero2IPO Research Centre, a leading venture capital and private equity research institute in China. The researcher has a wealth of personal contacts with VCs in China and this has proved invaluable in being able to conduct the empirical study that forms the basis of this thesis. In addition, as a Taiwanese expatriate, the researcher also has the advantage of conducting this study in the Chinese language in addition to having a comprehensive knowledge of both Chinese and Western venture capital practices.

Abstract:
AbstractA survey approach was applied to examine the technical characteristics of fish farming practice in Egypt and Nigeria. Critical issues such as floods and other vices were considered in bringing out the inference and level of aquaculture in both countries. Multistage sampling technique was used to select the study area and the number of respondents. Both primary and secondary data were used in the analysis. Eighty fish farmers were randomly selected from each of the country, making a total of 160 respondents. The socioeconomic characteristics revealed that aquaculture is an antique venture in Africa with Egypt taking the lead, i.e., 99% of the respondents practice in large-scales production of more than 11 Fadden/acre per, and 100% males depend mainly on agricultural drainage water for their earthen ponds. Ninety-eight percent cultured tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) which was believed to have originated from the Nile River. In terms of financial performance and partial economic analysis, tilapia production commands more sales in Egypt, while catfish (Clarias) production is seen as a promising venture in Nigeria. The fish farmers have various perceptions and reactions toward environmental changes factors such as cost of labor/manpower and inputs, poor water quality, and fish extension services, and climate change impedes aquaculture development in the countries. To achieve the scale of aquaculture expansion as observed in Asian and other developed part of the world, efforts should be geared toward continental and regional integration in order to encourage aquaculture practices in Nigeria and other parts of Africa. More so, government intervention and incentives should be paramount in Egypt to reduce the excessive exploitation of the private input suppliers.

This chapter analyzes the increasing demographic presence of Mexican Americans and Blacks in the decades after World War II and the collective actions taken by these communities to challenge disparate material conditions and treatment in the growing city. It discusses the formation of two groups, the Oxnard–Ventura County Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the Ventura County Chapter of the Community Service Organization, and follows the convergence of their efforts in 1963, when they mobilized a common cause for school desegregation. In parallel and shared efforts, these neighbors contested unfair labor practices, inferior housing conditions, mistreatment by police, and unequal, racially segregated schools.

Abstract:
The inception of cavitation is basically caused by a bubble nucleus which flows into the low pressure region in the liquid flow. Therefore the phenomenon is dependent on the tensile strength or the nuclei concentration of tested water. The cavitation susceptibility of water which controls the cavitation inception point has been made clear though various methods were proposed to measure the nuclei concentration. Cavitation susceptibility meter using a small venturi tube is also one of the methods to measure the nuclei concentration. It is pointed out that this method can be directly related to active nuclei for cavitation inception and gives a useful and simple device to estimate the tensile strength of water. In the present paper, to establish a measurement method of cavitation susceptibility using a venturi tube, the following points are investigated, such as; the relation between the occurrence, count rate of cavitation bubbles and cavitation number, the measurement of positions and local pressure of bubble occurrence and the high-speed video observation of bubble aspects from inception to collapse. As the result, the main points obtained are as follows. A traveling-bubble cavitation appears dominantly in a nozzle-type venturi tube with little possibility of flow separation. Cavitation aspects and the bubble occurrence count rate change with cavitation number and water quality (dissolved gas content). Unstable sheet cavitation can be also observed near the venturi diffuser and at relatively low cavitation number. The various behaviors of traveling bubble cavitation in a venturi are observed from inception to collapse using a high-speed video camera system.

Abstract:
A linked watershed model was evaluated on three watersheds within the U.S.: (1) House Creek Watershed, Fort Hood, TX; (2) Calleguas Creek Watershed, Ventura County, CA; and (3) Patuxent River Watershed, MD. The goal of this demonstration study was to show the utility of such a model in addressing water quality issues facing DoD installations across a variety of climate zones. In performing the demonstration study, evaluations of model output with regards to accuracy, predictability and meeting regulatory drivers were completed. Data availability, level of modeling expertise, and costs for model setup, validation, scenario analysis, and maintenance were evaluated in order to inform installation managers on the time and cost investment needed to use a linked watershed modeling system. Final conclusions were that the system evaluated in this study would be useful for answering a variety of questions posed by installation managers and could be useful in developing management scenarios to better control pollutant runoff from installations.

Full text
Abstract:
The Pursuing Regional Opportunities for Mentoring, Innovation, and Success for English Learners (PROMISE) Initiative Research Monograph is comprised of four sub-studies that took place between 2006 and 2009 to examine the effectiveness of the PROMISE Initiative across six implementing counties. Beginning in 2002, the superintendents of the six Southern California County Offices of Education collaborated to examine the pattern of the alarmingly low academic performance of English learners (EL) across Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, San Diego, Riverside, and Ventura. Together, these six counties serve over one million EL students, more than 66% of the total EL population in the state of California, and close to 20% of the EL population in the nation. Data were compiled for the six counties, research on effective programs for ELs was shared, and a common vision for the success of ELs began to emerge. Out of this effort, the PROMISE Initiative was created to uphold a critical vision that ensured that ELs achieved and sustained high levels of proficiency, high levels of academic achievement, sociocultural and multicultural competency, preparation for successful transition to higher education, successful preparation as a 21st century global citizen, and high levels of motivation, confidence, and self-assurance. This report is organized into six chapters: an introductory chapter, four chapters of related studies, and a summary chapter. The four studies were framed around four areas of inquiry: 1) What is the PROMISE model? 2) What does classroom implementation of the PROMISE model look like? 3) What leadership skills do principals at PROMISE schools need to lead transformative education for ELs? 4) What impact did PROMISE have on student learning and participation? Key findings indicate that the PROMISE Initiative: • resulted in positive change for ELs at all levels including achievement gains and narrowing of the gap between ELs and non-ELs • increased use of research-based classroom practices • refined and strengthened plans for ELs at the district-level, and • demonstrated potential to enable infrastructure, partnerships, and communities of practice within and across the six school districts involved. The final chapter of the report provides implications for school reform for improving EL outcomes including bolstering EL expertise in school reform efforts, implementing sustained and in-depth professional development, monitoring and supporting long-term reform efforts, and establishing partnerships and networks to develop, research and disseminate efforts.
