This article explores the genesis of the diplomatic law of international organizations in science and the doctrine of international law of Uzbekistan. The theoretical principles and the legal content of the diplomatic law of international organizations are learned. The inter-branch nature of the diplomatic law of international organizations as the sub-branch of law is disclosed.
ObjectiveTo describe the development of a computer-based risk assessment method for visual ergonomics, and assess its face validity, content validity, and internal consistency.MethodsThe risk assessment method contained a questionnaire for the worker, an evaluation form for the evaluator, a section of follow-up questions based on the worker's responses, and a section for recommended changes, inclu
Optimized biogenic carbon fluxes for Europe wereestimated from high-resolution regional-scale inversions, uti-lizing atmospheric CO2measurements at 16 stations for theyear 2007. Additional sensitivity tests with different data-driven error structures were performed. As the atmosphericnetwork is rather sparse and consequently contains large spa-tial gaps, we use a priori biospheric fluxes to furthe
Sweden and other developed countries are putting deliberate efforts into eHealth and digitalization of home care nursing. eHealth services have big potential in this area because they can provide mobile access to healthcare information. This study explores the eHealth services that home care nursing providers in Sweden currently use, plan to use, and have discarded. It also investigates their eHea
In order to move towards advanced 1-D models for secondary settling a more thorough understanding of compression is necessary. The inability of the current modelling frameworks to capture the variability in the compression phenomenon indicates that there is still something missing in the expression describing compressive settling. This can potentially be attributed to phenomena such as variations
OBJECTIVES: The influence of the amount and rate of weight loss on subsequently regaining weight and dropout from treatment in severely obese patients targeting 5% weight loss was investigated.METHODS: A total of 120 consecutive hospital patients with severe obesity (BMI: 42 ± 9 kg/m(2) ) participated in an inpatient program targeting 5% weight loss that involved goal setting, charting weight four
Soil erosion by water represents a serious threat to the natural and human environment in Mediterranean countries, including Lebanon, which represents a good case study. This research deals with how to use Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and, more specifically, structural classification techniques and decision-tree modeling to map erosion risks and design priority management
This paper illustrates the potential use of the theory of planned behavior as a guiding framework for understanding intentions and behavior in geospatial data sharing in Tanzania. A structured questionnaire survey, was constructed and sent to local governments as well as academic and private organizations that are major producers and/or users of geodata. The questionnaire covered issues of how col
Nature-based tourism in the fragile Arctic environments is emerging as a major environmental concern, mainly due to extreme seasonality in these locations, the lack of suitable infrastructures and planning, and its interference with fragile ecosystems. In Iceland tourism has increased exponentially during the past decades, causing more environmental impacts on the country's natural recourses. Hiki
The high prevalence of intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) in countries with high levels of gender equality has been defined as the "Nordic paradox". In this study we compared physical and sexual IPVAW prevalence data in two countries exemplifying the Nordic paradox: Sweden (N = 1483) and Spain (N = 1447). Data was drawn from the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights Survey on v
Key observational indicators of climate change in the Arctic, most spanning a 47 year period (1971–2017) demonstrate fundamental changes among nine key elements of the Arctic system. We find that, coherent with increasing air temperature, there is an intensification of the hydrological cycle, evident from increases in humidity, precipitation, river discharge, glacier equilibrium line altitude and
