It should also be noted that the vulnerability of small island developing States follows the logic of critical levels and tipping points.

On the negative side, Pakistan and especially Argentina move to the back closing the group list with Chile, slightly above the threshold due to its small size and not a worsening outlook.

In CCAMLR, the current management strategy to avoid significant adverse impacts on VMEs consists of the following measures: (i) a ban on bottom trawling in the high-seas areas of the CCAMLR Convention Area; (ii) restriction of exploratory fishing for toothfish to areas deeper than 550 metres; (iii) closure of risk areas around by-catch of VME indicator taxa when greater than a threshold level; and (iv) notification of areas with evidence of VMEs to be included on a VME register.

Strengthening the Brasilia Office by giving it the role of coordinating the other offices in South America could be considered to be a means of ensuring that critical mass.

As for efforts to establish programme criticality as a tool for managing risk and instilling a “finding ways to stay” approach, if these do indeed lead to greater resolve to remain and deliver in difficult security situations, this could entail costs in the form of required mitigating measures such as communications and protective equipment for staff working in those environments.

He observed that the integration of national railways in the Trans-Asian Railway would increase traffic volumes, thereby moving towards the critical mass needed for financial viability.

Preliminary critical limits to prevent ecological effects due to mercury in organic soils have been set at 0.07-0.3 mg/kg for the total mercury content in soil.

The World Bank was also considering the “value-added” of a human rights perspective in the context of its work on climate change, focusing on most vulnerable people, on critical thresholds, and on procedural standards.

[...] [...] disasters, the tipping points and solutions.

Aware of the limitations of the Emergency Events Database (EMDAT), which only records disasters above a particular threshold, the Committee recommends that Governments systematically collect data on small disasters, the aggregated impact of which often exceeds that of large disasters.

Key ecosystems might soon reach critical thresholds, disproportionately impacting people and communities that were most vulnerable, such as small island and coastal developing countries.

In particular the Executive Committee noted the progress made by Colombia towards the successful implementation of the CFC national phase-out plan, the initiation of stage I of the HCFC phase-out management plan and the implementation of other projects such as the conversion of the only metered-dose inhaler manufacturer in the country, the substitution of CTC as a process agent, the demonstration projects on chillers and supercritical CO

Turkey and Mexico keep their positions and Taiwan completes the group list close to the threshold.

Its favorable mass distribution and the high flexibility of the damper reduce critical resonances ("vehicle rocking") to well below idling speed.

At present, the Center counts: (a) 23 counselling centres; (b) 14 counselling support programmes for prisoners; (c) 16 residential and non-residential therapeutic communities; (d) 2 therapeutic communities within prisons; (e) 15 re-entry centres; (f) 21 Family Support Programmes; (g) 2 Reception and re-entry centres for released prisoners; (h) 2 law-threshold programmes and 1 outreach programme; (i) an alcohol and gambling therapeutic programme; (j) an intercultural therapeutic programme for migrants and refugees; (k) 4 transitional schools for members of the therapeutic programmes; and (l) primary prevention, research and professional training departments.

In addition with algaecides that contain copper, the specified dosing must necessarily exceed the critical concentration for undesired algae in order to achieve the desired effect.

This makes it clear that the critical limit for algae is in the same concentration range that is critical for beneficial microorganisms.

It is not too late, however, for the Council to shoulder its responsibilities before the mandate expires, as the Syrian crisis now poses a challenge to all humankind and represents a failure of the international community, and above all the Security Council, which, let us recall, bears the primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security.

If the pressure changes in a rack compressor beyond set thresholds, if an air conditioning unit begins consuming more power than normal, or if store employees inappropriately change equipment settings, Emerson staff can immediately notify supermarket management, allowing repairs or adjustments to be made before efficiency takes a hit or, even worse, equipment fails.
