چکیده
Number 10 — In Part 1 of th~ essay, I I defined the problem of acid rain and briefly reviewed some of the voluminous scienM[c literature on the subject. In this part, I will examine the worldwide nature of the acid-rain problem, public perceptions of it, and some possible solutions. Many of the studies to date have indk cated that acid rain is rapidly becoming a worldwide problem. The portrayal of the problem in the American press might lead people to believe that the issue is one chiefly between Canada and the northeastern US on the one hand and the midwestem US on the other. As I noted in Part 1, much of the early research into acid rain was done by Europeans. 1Indeed, many of the current research projects are being conducted outside of North America. Much attention is now focusing on acid-rain damage in European forests. For some time, evidence has been gathered on acid-rain damage to fisheries in Scandinavia. Z-5 But concern is not limited to areas near the great industrial centers of the Western world. Arne Jemelov, Swedkh Environmental Research Institute, Stockhohn, has reported on acid-rain problems as far afield as the People’s Republic of Chma.6 Dispersion of acid emissions, such as those from very tall smokestacks, means that areas far from the emission sources can feel the effects of acid rain. With the possibility that acid rain is such a widespread problem, we might wonder what the general public around the world knows about the issue. An indicator of public knowledge is the volMarch 11, 1985

متن کاملA multi-objective genetic algorithm for a mixed-model assembly U-line balancing type-I problem considering human-related issues, training, and learning
Mixed-model assembly lines are increasingly accepted in many industrial environments to meet the growing trend of greater product variability, diversification of customer demands, and shorter life cycles. In this research, a new mathematical model is presented considering balancing a mixed-model U-line and human-related issues, simultaneously. The objective function consists of two separate com...

A double or accessory common bile duct (ACBD) is a rare congenital anomaly. We report the case of a 60-year-old American Asian male, who was found to have a double or duplicated common bile duct after being admitted for evaluation of a pancreatic mass. A duplicated bile duct has the same mucosa histologically as a single bile duct. However, the opening of a duplicated bile duct lacks a sphincte...
