These variables are included in the present model to test the explanatory power of social disorganization theory, which associates higher crime rates with “exogenous sources of social disorganization” , including socioeconomic disadvantage, residential instability, and family disruption. Additional control variables presented in Table 4.2 under “Other Tract Characteristics” include population size, population density, percent of…

Farmers in the U.S. and Canada had to dump fresh milk in order to make room for new production
The potential COVID-19 impact on food production and food industry is illustrated in Fig 3. For agriculture, the pandemic impacted both supply and demand for food . Canadian poultry and dairy sectors have been hit hard by the pandemic . For meat, the FAO Meat Price Index indicated that international meat prices dropped in May…
The B-number describes this feedback process as a non-dimensional ratio
The B-numbers were then used in the flame spread model as described in Section 5 to predict the flame heights for both the bench-scale and large-scale cases. The mass-loss rate data were trimmed to contain only the time period where upward flame spread occurred along the sample, removing data prior to ignition of the sample…
The average across all states are reported at the bottom of the table for each column
The findings in the second and third columns of Table 2 show that this is indeed the case, as people living in so-called decriminalized states are statistically less likely to report jail as the maximum penalty and more likely to report fines and/or probation as the maximum penalty. However, the actual magnitude of these differences…
The literature searches were conducted online and at the UCLA and CARB physical libraries
Australian researchers observed that the e-nose for chicken odor worked in-shed yet was unreliable beyond the shed . Today’s e-noses function well for the context for which they are designed but do not yet cover broad environmental odor monitoring . A workgroup in Europe was launched in 2015 to develop a standard for e-noses . One…
There is a growing public demand to increase access to medicinal cannabis for US military veterans
These findings differ from a proteomic study that aimed to identify genes expressed in Cannabis glands but failed to associate any highly expressed proteins with THCA synthesis . This difference reflects the much greater volume of genomic data enabling more robust identification of DNA sequences when compared to proteomics approaches based on the molecular weights…
The FIDOL framework or a variation thereof is used by many jurisdictions
A certified industrial hygienist must sign off on the plan. Activated carbon air filters are the highly recommended technology. Submissions are typically a few pages in length and include a facility diagram. Odor complaints are received by phone, e-mail or the city’s app. The city has a database to gather relevant information as well as…
Cultivators and manufacturers have no reason to distinguish between the two product types
We report average maximum and minimum prices for three common types of cannabis packages: one-eighth ounce of dried cannabis flower, 1 ounce of dried cannabis flower and 500-milligram cannabis-oil cartridges. In our first 11 months of data collection , we collected prices from retailers in seven representative counties around California. Next, in November 2017, we…
The majority of these molecules are produced across kingdom Plantae via specialized metabolism
Additionally, it is important to note that many classically used promoters have been incorrectly labeled as ‘constitutive,’ as they are not expressed in all tissues, nor do they express at similar levels across various tissue types. Thus, this broad stroked approach and traditional reliance on ‘constitutive’ promoters represents a major barrier that separates the level…
This was demonstrated by the complete separation of drug offenders from the criminal justice system
Under the CEN, possession of up to one hundred grams of cannabis, twenty grams of marijuana resin, or equipment for consuming marijuana are all treated as minor marijuana offences that are punishable by a small fine ranging from Australian $50 to Australian $150. If this fee is paid within thirty to sixty days, there are…
