powerful competitive tools yet developed: his three generic strategies -- lowest cost‚ differentiation‚ and focus -- which bring structure to the task of strategic positioning. He shows how competitive advantage can be defined in terms of relative cost and relative prices‚ thus linking it directly to profitability‚ and presents a whole new perspective on how profit is created and divided. In the almost two decades since publication‚ Porter’s framework for predicting competitor behavior has transformed

content in air or other gases. Humidity is usually measured in terms of absolute humidity (the ratio of the mass of water vapor to the volume of air or gas)‚ dew point (the temperature and pressure at which a gas begins to condense into a liquid)‚ and relative humidity‚ or RH (the ratio of the moisture content of air compared to the saturated moisture level at the same temperature or pressure). Thermal conductivity humidity sensors‚ also known as absolute humidity sensors‚ are capable of measuring absolute

1. Is a temperature inversion more likely to form on a calm or a windy night? Why? A temperature inversion is most likely to form on a calm night. Windy nights are not ideal for an inversion to occur since an inversion is considered a stable layer of atmosphere as well as due to the wind mixing the air to even out the density‚ remembering cold air is denser than warm air so it will flow downhill and pool in a valley. 2. What are the various methods used to protect sensitive crops from damaging

Drought occurs when soil moisture level and relative humidity in air is low while temperature is also high.

2.1.1 Theory of Relative Humidity Relative humidity is the relationship between the actual water vapor pressure and the maximum possible water vapor pressure. As stated by PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric‚ Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration) “Due to high temperature and the surrounding bodies of water‚ the Philippines have a high relative humidity. The average monthly relative humidity varies between 71 percent in March and 85 percent in September”. Relative humidity contributes

The legend of Santa Claus has been told for centuries and is still told to this day. Every year‚ many children make Christmas lists and send them to Santa. If they are good‚ they will get presents‚ but if they are bad‚ they will get a bundle of coal in their stocking. Santa is usually visualized as a happy‚ white-bearded man‚ with a red stocking cap‚ and a red suit with white cuffs and black boots. In other cultures‚ he is referred to as St. Nicholas‚ Sinterklauss‚ and Father Christmas. Santa Claus

OBSIDIAN HYDRATION There are two ways of Obsidian Hydration. One is to determine if the artifact is older or younger as the other is a calendar date of AD/BC being used. The decision of which one to use is relative or absolute dating depends on the environment’s condition. The dating of Obsidian Hydration artifacts‚ which is based on the fact that a freshly made surface of obsidian will absorb water from it’s surroundings to form a measurable hydration layer. For example‚ cracking of the lava

Approaches to Humidity Control Humidity control in a conditioned space is done by controlling the amount of water vapor present in the air in the space. When relative humidity at the desired temperature set-point is too high‚ dehumidification is required to reduce the amount of water vapor in the air for humidity control. Similarly‚ when relative humidity at the desired
