When the levee breaks: treating adolescents and families in the aftermath of hurricane katrina.
Hurricane Katrina brought to the surface serious questions about the capacity of the public health system to respond to community-wide disaster. The storm and its aftermath severed developmentally protective family and community ties; thus its consequences are expected to be particularly acute for vulnerable adolescents. Research confirms that teens are at risk for a range of negative outcomes ...
متن کاملWhen the Levee Breaks: Black Migration and Economic Development in the American South∗
In the American South, post-bellum economic development may have been restricted in part by white landowners’ access to low-wage black labor. This paper examines the impact of the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 on black out-migration and subsequent agricultural development. Flooded counties experienced an immediate and persistent out-migration of black population. Over time, landowners in floo...
متن کاملBatteries and electrochemical capacitors
solar and wind power, offers enormous potential for meeting future energy demands. But access to solar and wind energy is intermittent, whereas electricity must be reliably available for 24 hours a day: Even second-to-second fluctuations can cause major disruptions that cost tens of billions of dollars annually. Electrical energy storage devices will therefore be critical for effectively leveli...
متن کاملBatteries and Electrochemical Capacitors
The invention of the battery can be attributed to Alessandro Volta (1745-1827) of Como, Italy, who in 1800 described an assembly consisting of plates of two different metals, such as Zn and Cu, placed alternately in a stack-like fashion separated by paper soaked in an aqueous solution, such as brine or vinegar. As discovered by Volta, this contraption was capable of producing an electrical shoc...
متن کاملMaterials for electrochemical capacitors.
Electrochemical capacitors, also called supercapacitors, store energy using either ion adsorption (electrochemical double layer capacitors) or fast surface redox reactions (pseudo-capacitors). They can complement or replace batteries in electrical energy storage and harvesting applications, when high power delivery or uptake is needed. A notable improvement in performance has been achieved thro...
