Network Developments in Aviation

The deregulation of aviation markets led to restructuring of airline networks. Hub-andspoke networks became the dominant network in countries (regions) where aviation markets were deregulated. These developments were primarily cost driven. Because of increasing returns with density, a hub-and-spoke network allows the large carriers to benefit from substantial cost savings compared to a fully co...

Recent Ground Based GPS Meteorology Developments for SuomiNet

Over the past 10 years significant progress has been made in atmospheric sensing with GPS. Both spacebased atmospheric sounding and ground-based measurements of integrated delay due to the troposphere have shown promise for meteorological applications. Now the focus is shifting from developing and validating the sensing technology towards applying it to weather forecasting. This paper will focu...

Some Recent Developments in Aviation and Environmental Protection Regulation

0378-777X/01/$12.00 © 2002 IOS Press In the years ahead, nations can either compete ruthlessly for resources, in a context of scarcity, or cooperate, respect the laws of nature, and share its abundance. Resource interdependence and the careful management of those resources owned in common will enlarge the area of unified action and do much to encourage world order. The growth of a worldwide con...

Meteorology and Agroforestry Meteorology and Agroforestry

The physical environment affects and interacts with agroforestry systems through tree and crop growth, animal performance, management operations and interactions between the tree/shrub and non-tree components (abbreviated to tree/crop interactions). Interactions take place mainly through the media of microclimate, soil moisture and soil. They may have beneficial or adverse effects, for tree and...
