Results, and Innovations in Nutrition Globally (SPRING) project that use secondary analysis of Demographic and Health Survey data to determine barriers to distribution and consumption of iron–folic acid (IFA) through antenatal care systems in a range of countries. This brief describes key characteristics of and barriers to successful IFA supplementation in Senegal. SPRING NUTRITION TECHNICAL BRIEF

The difference of reclaimed water qualities between in summer and in winter were proved considerable. Reclaimed water derived in spring or summer could be applied irrigating in some arid region, which have been considered a rational renewable resource of water. Yet in winter, reclaimed water would run off into river or stream in vain. The idea of storing it in winter and being ready for the nex...

4th Case. giment, a student of the military class, arrived at the cholera hospital in No. 5 barrack from the health camp at Perunkullia. He had been one of those who had drank the canal spring water. lie told me that he was very well when they marched out from Roorkee on the evening of the 19th; that after dinner (4 p.m. ) of the 20th he had felt unwell; that lie started to walk it off and was ...

We consider two example systems, a logistic-growth population model and a damped spring-mass model. These models are each parameterized in two different ways. In one case (the logistic) the parameters are independent in one formulation and dependent in the other. In the other example (the spring-mass), the parameterizations are each independent. We carry out a series of inverse problems for the...

Adoption of mitigation measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions may affect other members of the society, producing a situation of trade-offs. In this study, such a trade-off is has been analyzed using three aspects of the Canadian society: producers (farm level adopter), environment (through reduction in the GHG emissions),; and regional economy (including rest of the society through lost / ...

Significant summer warming over the eastern Antarctic Peninsula in the last 50 years has been attributed to a strengthening of the circumpolar westerlies, widely believed to be anthropogenic in origin. On the western side of the peninsula, significant warming has occurred mainly in austral winter and has been attributed to the reduction of sea ice. The authors show that austral fall is the only...

Warm eddy movements and their areal extent in the eastern Japan Sea were described by presenting space-time diagrams for the warm eddy locations and magnitudes. The analyzed data were compiled from Japan Maritime Safety Agency thermal maps at 200 m depth from 1985 to 1992. Two to four warm eddies always existed in the eastern Japan Sea and exhibited both interannual and annual signals. We found...
