Validity Dynamism Of Personality Traits In The Selection Context
(2011-08-31)VALIDITY DYNAMISM OF PERSONALITY TRAITS IN THE SELECTION CONTEXT Lian Shao Cornell University Based on the theoretical suggestion and empirical evidence of the idea of performance dynamism (i.e., that an individual's job ... -
VALORIZATION OF RESIDUES FROM AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD INDUSTRIES TOWARDS BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS USING BIOCHEMICAL AND THERMOCHEMICAL TECHNOLOGIES
(2017-08-30)The large volumes of organic waste streams produced daily as a part of our food and water supply systems create a global management challenge. Traditionally, these wastes are landfilled, composted, or used for the production ... -
VALUE ADDED PRODUCTS UTILIZING ACID WHEY: DEVELOPMENT OF A FRUIT YOGURT BEVERAGE AND A SPORTS DRINK
(2017-05-30)Disposal of acid whey, a by product of Greek yogurt production, remains a significant problem. Scientists and industry are seeking feasible alternatives to utilize yogurt acid whey (YAW), including value-added beverages. ... -
Value And Motivational Thresholds In The Retrofit Decision Process
(2012-08-20)Globally, buildings contribute thirty percent of the CO2 emissions yielding 8.6 billion tons annually. A majority of existing buildings in the United States, and worldwide, will need to undergo a retrofit for environmental ... -

VALUING LIFE AT THE BANK: CONTESTED EXPERTISE, RACIAL POLITICS AND DEVELOPMENT BANK INTERVENTIONS IN GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH
(2017-08-30)Development banks had almost no involvement in the field of international health just a few decades ago, but today they shape the lives of millions of people by setting global health priorities and implementing health ... -
VAN DER WAALS STACKING OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL MATERIALS
(2017-12-30)Two-dimensional (2D) materials, which show a wide range of electrical and optical properties, can serve as building blocks to form stacked 2D systems that are connected by interlayer van der Waals interactions. Any 2D ... -
Vantage Sensitivity to Perceived Partner Responsiveness: Examine the Moderating Role of Heart Rate Variability
(2018-05-30)Perceived partner responsiveness (PPR) is defined as being accurately understood, appreciated and cared for. Previous research has demonstrated that perceived partner responsiveness is an essential component of close ... -
Vapor-Liquid-Solid Growth Of Semiconductor Nanowires From Biotemplated Gold Nanoparticle Catalysts
(2010-04-09)The plethora of sophisticated architectures and physicochemical specificities of biomacromolecules have stimulated researchers to turn to ‘Nature’ for the nanomanufacturing of inorganic functional materials with complex ... -
VARIABILITY AND DRIVERS OF AEROSOL PARTICLE CHARACTERISTICS AND NEW PARTICLE FORMATION FROM IN SITU AND REMOTE SENSING MEASUREMENTS, AND NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS
(2017-08-30)Aerosol-climate interactions are the leading uncertainty in understanding anthropogenic climate forcing, and aerosol particles negatively impact human and ecosystem health. First, ground- and satellite-based remote sensing ... -
Variability In Levantine Tree-Ring Records And Its Applications In Dendrochronological Dating, Provenancing, And Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction In The Southern Levant
(2015-08-17)The East Mediterranean littoral (the Levant) is a bioclimatically diverse region with a rich cultural heritage. Such bioclimatic diversity creates important regional variations in vegetation growth and (potentially) ... -
Variability In Water Quality Improvement From Cattle Fencing Explained By Riparian Buffer Function And Stream Bank Recovery: A Review Of Best Management Practice Effectiveness Studies
(2015-08-17)Cattle exclusion fencing has been recommended as a best management practice for the control of sediment, phosphorus, and nitrogen pollution in agricultural streams for several decades. The effectiveness of this practice ... -
Variable Packet-Error Coding
(2017-12-30)Consider a communication scenario in which a source is encoded into N packets, at most T of which may be arbitrarily altered by an omniscient adversary. Unlike prior work in coding theory which seeks to optimize only the ... -
Variation In Extra-Pair Mating Systems In Tachycineta Swallows: A Life-History Approach
(2010-08-05)Variation in life-history traits has long captivated ecologists and evolutionary biologists. Early contributors identified latitudinal clines in life-history traits and proposed ecological hypotheses to explain this ... -
Variation In The Susceptibility Of Turf-Infesting White Grubs To Different Control Agents And Opportunities For Synergistic Combinations Of Biologicals And Neonicotinoids
(2009-08-19)White grubs (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) are the most widespread and damaging pests in turfgrass habitats of the Northeast U.S. and their management is highly dependent on chemical pesticides. Best IPM is constrained by ... -
Variation resolutions for CMOS sensing networks
(2018-08-30)proposed circuits can be combined with other techniques including high-Q impedance matching for input voltage boosting and hierarchical tandem stages for further improvement on operating conditions. With a Q=10 matching ... -
Variation Tolerant Calibration Circuits For High Performance I/O
(2015-01-26)Continuous scaling of CMOS processes leads to increasing integration of digital and analog subsystems on one chip. But the impact of process variation on these analog blocks is more pronounced than on the digital components, ... -
