A warm occluded front occurs when a cool front overtakes a warm front overlying a cold front. The primary difference is the location of the upper level front. The cold front is ahead of the surface occluded front. In this case the weather is similar to a warm front.

Cost-effective open-plan environments (COPE) - a new research initiative. Many organizations believe that reducing office space is a great way to save money. But putting more people in the same area can lead to poorer indoor air quality, lower lighting levels, higher noise levels and increased fire hazards. These negative impacts can result in lower levels of employee satisfaction, more absenteeism, decreased productivity, and higher costs. IRC [Institut de recherche en construction) aims to fill that gap with a new research initiative - COPE. The multidisciplinary COPE team will conduct innovative research using sophisticated computer models, laboratory facilities and field studies. The results of this research will be combined with existing knowledge to evaluate: the effect of occupant density, office landscape and base building characteristics on the indoor environment and fire risk; the effect of the indoor environment (including both physical and psychological components) on occupant satisfaction; the performance and cost-benefit of a variety of measures to improve the indoor environment. 1, record 21, English, - Cost%2Deffective%20open%2Dplan%20environments

De nombreux organismes sont convaincus qu'ils font des économies formidables en réduisant la surface des bureaux. Pourtant, en rassemblant plus de gens au même endroit, on risque de nuire à la qualité de l'air intérieur et de l'éclairage, d’élever le niveau de bruit et de multiplier les risques d’incendie, ce qui entraîne les conséquences suivantes : diminution du niveau de satisfaction des employés, augmentation du taux d’absentéisme, ralentissement de la production et hausse des coûts. L'IRC(Institut de recherche en construction) vient de lancer une nouvelle initiative qui pourrait bien permettre de le trouver, ce moyen. Le projet AOR regroupe une équipe multidisciplinaire qui effectuera de la recherche innovatrice en recourant à des modèles informatiques sophistiqués, à des installations de laboratoire de pointe et à des études sur le terrain. Les résultats de cette recherche seront combinés aux connaissances actuelles pour évaluer : l'effet de la densité d’occupation, de l'aménagement des bureaux et des caractéristiques fondamentales du bâtiment sur la qualité de l'air intérieur et les risques d’incendie; l'effet de l'environnement intérieur(incluant les facteurs physiques et psychologiques) sur le niveau de satisfaction des occupants; et l'efficacité et le rapport coûts-avantages d’une série de mesures pour améliorer l'environnement intérieur. 1, record 21, French, - Aires%20ouvertes%20rentables

Terrain can influence the transport and diffusion of hazardous gases to a critical degree, especially for heavier-than-air gases. Channelling of winds along valleys can lead to transport of gases with restricted lateral diffusion for considerable distances. In light winds, the slope of terrain has a significant influence on local airflow. Cooled topographic features in the case of release of cold gas have resulted in slope flows .... 1, record 28, English, - slope%20flow

Record number: 28, Textual support number: 2 OBS
L'action thermique du relief crée un régime de vent particulier à la vallée : brises de pente, brises de vallée. La brise de pente est due à la différence de température entre le sol incliné d’un relief quelconque et l'air libre au même niveau. Sous l'influence du rayonnement solaire, le sol se réchauffe plus vite que l'air libre durant le jour. L'air, qui se trouve directement au contact du sol, tend donc à s’élever le long de la pente tandis que l'air libre s’affaisse : c'est la brise montante. La nuit au contraire, le sol refroidit par rayonnement l'air qui se trouve en contact avec lui. Cet air devenu plus lourd s’écoule le long de la pente : c'est la brise descendante. La brise de pente sera d’autant plus accentuée que la vallée sera large et que la pente sera exposée au soleil. 2, record 28, French, - %C3%A9coulement%20de%20pente

The Dynamic-Spender has assumed one of the promotable-now postures that is representative of the Dynamic manager who has run out of gas. He has reached the stage at which all the authority he can delegate developmentally has been delegated. Assuming that the complexity of his job has not changed significantly, and that his resources have remained relatively constant, he must sooner or later arrive at a point where he has done as much as he can for his group.

At the base of the normal sedimentary series, in its most common positive development, are commonly conglomerate and sandstone. These detrital deposits still have rather frequently a continental character, such as siderolithic sandstones with kaolinite, red arkosic sandstones with a dominance of illite, and the various piedmont complexes. ... If one examines a great number of these series, it is frequently seen that the base level of the waters rises and the deposits take on little by little a marine facies. 1, record 31, English, - basal%20sandstone%20series
