Typical for much of the processing industry is that it is raw-material based and energy-and capital-intensive with plants often located outside metropolitan areas. It is also dependent on effective infrastructure and good transportation systems, by both land and sea. Although the processing industry manufactures products to a large extent for other manufacturing companies, an increasing amount of products are going directly to end users. A considerable portion of products are exported. In an international perspective, the products have a high knowledge and value-added content, and production processes are often automated. 4, record 10, English, - processing%20industry

Energetech Australia is building a prototype electricity generator based on wave power on the breakwater at Port Kembla in New South Wales. A submerged chamber is open below the water level. When the waves rise up around the chamber, the water inside the chamber rises and falls with the waves. This compresses and decompresses air above the water in the chamber, creating airflow which drives a turbine. The turbines work with the air flowing in both directions. The blades change angle, depending on the speed and direction of the airflow … An ocean wall in the shape of a parabola concentrates the wave energy onto a central point where the power station is located … The amount of converted energy depends on the wind speed, the time the wind blows over the waves, and the distance it covers. During a wave's voyage, it shapes into a more regular wave, commonly referred to as a swell. At ocean shores, swells are very regular and discernable, even when the sea is calm. 1, record 15, English, - wave%20energy%20breakwater

For the purpose of this discussion, "weaponization" is limited to destructive mechanisms and do not include observation, communications or other non-destructive activities, even if military in nature. The weaponization of space could take a variety of forms. First, there is the threat from above posed by space strike or orbital bombardment weapon systems. Orbital bombardment weapons are weapon systems that operate in space for one or more orbits and strike at land, sea or air targets. Secondly, there are anti-satellite(ASAT) weapon systems used to permanently degrade, damage or destroy enemy satellites. Lastly, there are ballistic missile defence(BMD) weapon systems. Some variants of BMD systems may be based in outer space and be used to destroy incoming ballistic missiles through the boost and mid-course phases of their flight. Putative weapons, such as orbiting space-based lasers based on "exotic" technologies or variants of conventionally-armed and kinetic energy "kill-mechanism" missile interceptors may be capable of performing all three functions. 3, record 23, English, - weapanization%20of%20space

[...] l'«arsenalisation» se limite aux mécanismes destructeurs et ne comprend pas les activités d'observation, de communication et d'autres activités non destructrices, même si elles sont de caractère militaire. L'arsenalisation de l'espace pourrait prendre diverses formes. Se pose premièrement la menace venant des systèmes d'armement de frappe spatiale ou de bombardement orbital. Les armes de bombardement orbital sont des systèmes d'armes qui opèrent dans l'espace pendant une orbite ou davantage et frappent des cibles terrestres, maritimes ou aériennes. Deuxièmement, il existe des systèmes d'arme antisatellite (ASAT) servant à dégrader, endommager ou détruire en permanence des satellites ennemis. Enfin, il existe des systèmes d'arme de défense antimissiles balistiques (ABM). On peut déployer certaines variantes de systèmes ABM dans l'espace extra-atmosphérique et les utiliser pour détruire des missiles balistiques en approche pendant les phases de propulsion et à mi-parcours de leur vol. Des armes présumées, comme des lasers en orbite basés dans l'espace et reposant sur des technologies «exotiques» ou des variantes des intercepteurs de missiles armés de charges conventionnelles et d'énergie cinétique à «mécanisme de destruction» peuvent être capables de remplir ces trois fonctions. 2, record 23, French, - arsenalisation%20de%20l%27espace

Multi-scale composite models based on the Bragg theory are widely used to study the normalized radar cross-section(NRCS) over the sea surface. However, these models are not able to reproduce correctly the NRCS in all configurations and wind-wave conditions. We have developed a physical model that takes into account, not only the Bragg mechanism, but also the non-Bragg scattering mechanism associated with wave breaking.... Models of the normalized radar cross-section of the sea-surface(NRCS) at intermediate incidence angles are usually treated as a composite models describing the combined effects of Bragg scattering mechanism(effective for surface ocean waves whose wavelengths are of the order of the electromagnetic wave) and local-titling effects due to longer underlying waves(Plant, 1986, Donelan and Pierson, 1987, Romeiser et al., 1994, Romeiser et Alpers, 1997, Janssen et al., 1998). 3, record 24, English, - Bragg%20scattering%20mechanism

Sea ice thermodynamics are based on the zero-layer model of Semtner(1976), with the inclusion of an ice concentration parameter A after Hibler(1979).... Atmospheric surface fluxes and temperatures are calculated separately over the ice and the leads, with a linear temperature profile assumed in the ice interior. Shortwave radiation does not penetrate the ice interior, but does warm the ocean where there are leads, just as it would at open ocean grid squares. 1, record 25, English, - linear%20temperature%20profile

The South Pacific Forum Fisheries Agency(FFA), formed by member countries of the South Pacific Forum in 1979, is based in Honiara, Solomon Islands. The agency was formed in response to the far-reaching changes taking place in the 1960s and 1970s in the international Law of the Sea, and the steadily increasing level of commercial tuna fishing in the Central and Western Pacific. The Functions of FFA are to provide scientific, commercial, and technical information, and advice to member countries in relation to the "living marine resources of the region and in particular the highly migratory species. "Within that broad scope, under the direction of the Forum Fisheries Committee, FFA has concentrated on assisting its members in the sustainable management and development of their tuna resources. 2, record 28, English, - South%20Pacific%20Forum%20Fisheries%20Agency

An international humanitarian agency organized after the battle of Solferino(1859), concerned in peacetime with health and safety and in wartime with caring for wounded and the prevention and alleviation of human suffering generally. It has now a world-wide organization, based in Geneva, together with national societies. The first multilateral agreement on the Red Cross, the Geneva Convention of 1964, committed signatory governments to care for wounded, both friend and foe, and this was later revised and extended to warfare at sea(1907), prisoners of war(1929), and civilians in wartime(1949). 2, record 34, English, - International%20Red%20Cross
