Adjusted net saving,(also known as genuine saving), is a sustainability indicator building on the concepts of green national accounts. Adjusted net savings measure the true rate of savings in an economy after taking into account investments in human capital, depletion of natural resources and damage caused by pollution. 3, record 1, English, - adjusted%20net%20saving

From the model estimates, countries can be grouped roughly into net receivers or net donators of sulfur pollution. The study showed that in half of the countries the major part of total estimated deposition in 1974 originated from foreign emissions. Some countries probably received three-quarters of their deposition from abroad. 1, record 2, English, - net%20donator

En se basant sur les estimations des modèles, on peut grossièrement grouper les pays entre importateurs nets et exportateurs nets de pollution par le soufre. Les estimations portant sur l'année 1974 montrent que l'éventail s'étend des pays pour lesquels les dépôts égalent trois fois les émissions jusqu'aux pays pour lesquels les émissions égalent trois fois les dépôts. Pour environ la moitié des pays ayant participé à l'étude, le dépôt total estimé dépassait, en 1974, les émissions nationales. 3, record 2, French, - exportateur%20net

Jackson currently manufactures a unique netting system which is designed to entrap and concentrate slicks in a manner similar to purse seining. ... An advantage of the seining net is its potential ability to contain certain oils without significant losses in various sea states ranging up to 3. Limitations may include its inapplicability to light oils as well as the tendency for heavier distillate fuels to cling to the netting thus rendering their removal difficult if not time-consuming. 2, record 3, English, - net%20boom

Jackson fabrique actuellement un système unique de filet conçu pour emprisonner les hydrocarbures et les canaliser suivant le même principe que celui de la pêche à la senne coulissante. (...) L'avantage du filet est sa capacité à contenir certains types d'hydrocarbures sans perte notable en présence de forces de Beaufort allant jusqu'à 3. Il ne convient cependant pas pour les hydrocarbures légers, et les carburants lourds distillés ont tendance à coller au filet, ce qui complique la récupération et occasionne une perte de temps considérable. 1, record 3, French, - filet%20anti%2Dpollution

This does not, however, change the overall picture, which shows a considerable transport of sulfur pollutants over the national borders in Europe. The total deposition in a given country, which is due to foreign emissions of sulfur deposition, depends on the size and geographical position of the country in relation to the major emission sources. From the model estimates, countries can be grouped roughly into net receivers or net donators of sulfur pollution. The study showed that in half of the countries the major part of total estimated deposition in 1974 originated from foreign emissions. Some countries probably received three-quarters of their deposition from aboard. 1, record 5, English, - net%20receiver
