The traditional approach toward protecting agriculture, food, and water: focusing on the natural or unintentional introduction of a disease is being strengthened by focused efforts to address current and anticipated future biological weapons threats that may be deliberate, multiple, and repetitive.

For example, Lake Magadi has high concentrations of soda ( sodium carbonate ) and Lake Elmenteita, Lake Bogoria, and Lake Nakuru are all strongly alkaline, while the freshwater springs supplying Lake Naivasha are essential to support its current biological variety.

Although they accept that some complex systems and organs can be explained by evolution, they claim that organs and biological features which are irreducibly complex cannot be explained by current models, and that an intelligent designer must have created life or guided its evolution.

Behe argues that organs and biological features which are irreducibly complex cannot be wholly explained by current models of evolution.

Reform authorities consider that, in light of what is seen as current scientific evidence about the nature of homosexuality as a biological sexual orientation, a new interpretation of the law is required.

They therefore ask what, if any, implications current models of human evolution may have for any biological conception of race.

* Electric shock — Physiological reaction of a biological organism to the passage of electric current through its body.

Every cell has a cell potential ; biological electricity has the same chemical underpinnings as the current between electrochemical cells, and thus can be duplicated outside the body.

Tina locates the current address of Mel's biological parents, which turns out to be in rural New Mexico.

Whether senescence as a biological process itself can be slowed down, halted or even reversed, is a subject of current scientific speculation and research.

* Alternative Energy and Efficiency — Argonne develops both chemical and biological fuels tailored for current engines as well as improved combustion schemes for future engine technologies.

An evolutionary psychology perspective is that many of the seeming limitations in rational choice can be explained as being rational in the context of maximizing biological fitness in the ancestral environment but not necessarily in the current one.

Some pioneers in vocal pedagogy, like Margaret Green and William Vennard, were quick to adopt current scientific research in the 1950s, and pursued capturing the biological process of female falsetto on film.

The term Bioethics ( Greek bios, life ; ethos, behavior ) was coined in 1927 by Fritz Jahr, who " anticipated many of the arguments and discussions now current in biological research involving animals " in an article about the " bioethical imperative ," as he called it, regarding the scientific use of animals and plants.

On January 9, 1991, during the Geneva Peace Conference with Tariq Aziz in Geneva, Baker declared that " If there is any user of ( chemical or biological weapons ), our objectives won't just be the liberation of Kuwait, but the elimination of the current Iraqi regime ...." Baker later acknowledged that the intent of this statement was to threaten a retaliatory nuclear strike on Iraq, and the Iraqis received his message.

Conservation biology is a field of science based on the premise that the conservation of biological diversity is important and benefits current and future human societies.

* Of the 60 million American children under the age of 13, half are currently living with one biological parent and that parent's current partner.

The current head of the biological station is Dr. John Biesbor.

New treatment approaches such as biological therapy and improved ways of using current methods are being studied in clinical trials.

These computational models are used to frame hypotheses that can be directly tested by current or future biological and / or psychological experiments.

The current host is Foster's biological father, who is old and has become severely worn out from his symbiosis with LINC.

At least two species have been reported to be able to detect circular polarized light, and in some cases their biological quarter-wave plates perform more uniformly over the entire visual spectrum than any current man-made polarizing optics, the application of which it is speculated could be applied to a new type of optical media that performs even better than the current generation of Blu-ray disc technology.

Latvia's economy experienced GDP growth of more than 10 % per year during 2006-07, but entered a severe recession in 2008 as a result of an unsustainable current account deficit and large debt exposure amid the softening world economy.

Experimental tools using the 157 nm wavelength from the F2 excimer laser in a manner similar to current exposure systems have been built.

Bipolar transistors can be made to conduct by exposure to light, since absorption of photons in the base region generates a photocurrent that acts as a base current ; the collector current is approximately β times the photocurrent.

Photocurrent is the current that flows through a photosensitive device, such as a photodiode, as the result of exposure to radiant power.

Communication of more complex words and of sentences was not attempted because the averaged densities of energy required to transmit longer messages would approach the current 10mW / cm² limit of safe exposure.

One of the reasons that blood tests are not reliable for accurate peptic ulcer diagnosis on their own is their inability to differentiate between past exposure to the bacteria and current infection.

The current practice is to make mention of all factors affecting the climber's experience ( exposure, difficulty of setting protection or outright lack of protection ) in the description of the climb contained in the guide.

There is also usually the ability to test the current exposure to a known historical scenario ( such as the Russian debt default in 1998 or 9 / 11 attacks ) to ensure the liquidity of the institution.

At the time of the mid-1990s, Thailand, Indonesia and South Korea had large private current account deficits and the maintenance of fixed exchange rates encouraged external borrowing and led to excessive exposure to foreign exchange risk in both the financial and corporate sectors.

The current working hypothesis is, in genetically susceptible individuals, sarcoidosis is caused through alteration to the immune response after exposure to an environmental, occupational, or infectious agent.

Exposure science can be used to support environmental epidemiology by better describing environmental exposures that may lead to a particular health outcome, identify common exposures whose health outcomes may be better understood through a toxicology study, or can be used in a risk assessment to determine whether current levels of exposure might exceed recommended levels.

The farmer has hedged his exposure to wheat prices ; he no longer cares whether the current price rises or falls, because he is guaranteed a price by the contract.

" It should be noted that current OSHA standards would allow no more than sub single second exposure to impact noise over 130 dB per 24 hours.

A current cohort study represents a true prospective study where the data concerning exposure are assembled prior to the occurrence of disease.

The signs and symptoms of asbestosis do not manifest until after an appreciable latency ( time since first exposure ), often several decades under current conditions in the US.

The current exposure of the jetty to the elements and to the ravages of its growing number of visitors has led to a controversy over the preservation of the sculpture.

The House Committee on Un-American Activities, whose hearings were perceived as forums where current and former Communists and those sympathetic to Communism were compelled under the duress of the ruin of their careers to confess and name other Communists, made even brief affiliation with the CPUSA or any related groups grounds for public exposure and attack, inspiring local governments to adopt loyalty oaths and investigative commissions of their own.

Radiant energy detectors produce responses to incident radiant energy either as an increase or decrease in electric potential or current flow or some other perceivable change, such as exposure of photographic film.

However, current international exposure guidelines ( ICNIRP ) are based largely on the thermal effects of base station emissions.

These tranches will cater to two particular types of investors, depending on whether the investors are trying to increase their current yield ( which they can get from an IO ), or trying to reduce their exposure to prepayments of the loans ( which they can get from a PO ).

The fastest blowing fuses are designed for the most sensitive electrical equipment, where even a short exposure to an overload current could be very damaging.

Smoke is frequently observed to come out of electronic components when overheated, often through exposure to an extreme electrical current usually caused by a low-resistance failure or the application of excess voltage through some cascading failure of the circuit.

The number of emitted X-ray photons, or dose, are adjusted by controlling the current flow and exposure time.

The tube current and exposure time affect the dose and therefore the darkness of the image.
