An interdisciplinary assessment of hail suppression in the past, present, and future has shown it to be currently scientifically uncertain but a potentially beneficial future technology. An established suppression technology would be widely adopted in the Great Plains, providing benefits to agriculture and secondarily to the American consumer. Development of a reliable technology will require a...

Methods: The present institution based cross-sectional study was done on a sample of 120 females in Hail city of Saudi Arabia. The sample was randomly selected from all the colleges of University of Hail, Saudi Arabia. For the purpose of data collection general questionnaire about the participants’ sociodemographic characteristics and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS) for screeni...

Significantly, the school has already forged strong partnerships with communities in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven districts, as was clear from the many community leaders present at the ceremony. The GSM’s primary goal is to graduate doctors committed to serving in regional, rural and remote Australia. In the words of the university’s Vice-Chancellor, the school’s model is designed “to address t...

This thesis introduces a new Machine Learning technique called Hybrid Abductive Inductive Learning (HAIL) that integrates Abductive Logic Programming (ALP) and Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) in order to automate the learning of first-order theories from examples and prior knowledge. A semantics is proposed called Kernel Set Subsumption (KSS) that generalises the well-known inference method o...

The sensitivity of supercell morphology to the vertical distribution of moisture is investigated in this study using a cloud-resolvingmodel with 300-mhorizontal grid spacing. Simulated storms are found to transition from classic (CL) to low-precipitation (LP) supercells when the strength of elevated dry layers in the environmental moisture profile is increased. Resulting differences in themicro...

Microphysics parameterization becomes increasingly important as the model grid-spacing increases toward convection-resolving scales. The performance of several partially or fully twomoment (2M) schemes within the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model Version 3.5.1, chosen because of their well-documented advantages over one-moment (1M) schemes, is evaluated with respect to their ability in ...

Background: A number of risk factors are associated with increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with disease progression in many patients. Therefore, this study aimed at providing epidemiological data on the prevalence of risk factors for CKD in Hail, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Methodology: Data were collected during cross sectional survey included 5000 Saudi selected from 30...
