History and prospects

Around 1500 A.D. a new method of land reclamation came into use Polders were constructed by building a ring dike in shallow watery areas, after which the water was removed from the enclosed low-lying area by windmill-driven pumps. Once steam engines became available in the 19th century some of the windmills were replaced by pumping stations. 

A transformational moment came with the development of the modem centrifugal pump that enabled the current large-scale reclamation projects by hydraulic filling. According to the International Association of Dredging Companies Terra et Aqua, 2005) one of the first major reclamation works (Bay of Abidjan, Ivory 

This Hydraulic Fill Manual is written to supply the wants of the dredging industry to create a handbook that helps to improve the understanding between the various parties (i.e., Clients, Consultants and Contractors) involved in a hydraulic fill project. It contains the latest developments in the field of design and construction of hydraulic fills and presents clear guidelines for initiation, design and construction of a hydraulic fill project. 

The design and construction of a hydraulic fill project requires specific knowledge of a wide variety of disciplines, such as hydraulic, geotechnical and environmental engineering in combination with practical know-how and experience in dredging and filling techniques. 

Moreover, anew generation of dredging equipment, increasing awareness of the marine environment and the tendency to reduce construction time (i.e., return on investment period) will alfect the design and construction methods requiring new standards.

GOOS is a comprehensive, full-scale, environmental monitoring system aimed at solving a wide spectrum of problems (Holland and Nowlin, 2001 GOOS, 2002). The history and prospects for GOOS development are reflected in the dynamics of its structure and functions. For example, in 2000 deployment of its equipment constituted only 30% of the level planned for the following decade, but by 2009 all its planned levels look likely to be allocated and equipped with the necessary instruments to measure a wide range of characteristics of the World Ocean and the atmosphere.

Even if all of the elements described so far have been present within a sedimentary basin an accumulation will not necessarily be encountered. One of the crucial questions in prospect evaluation is about the timing of events. The deformation of strata into a suitable trap has to precede the maturation and migration of petroleum. The reservoir seal must have been intact throughout geologic time. If a leak occurred sometime in the past, the exploration well will only encounter small amounts of residual hydrocarbons. Conversely, a seal such as a fault may have developed early on in the field s history and prevented the migration of hydrocarbons into the structure. 

Model equations can be augmented with expressions accounting for covariates such as subject age, sex, weight, disease state, therapy history, and lifestyle (smoker or nonsmoker, IV drug user or not, therapy compliance, and others). If sufficient data exist, the parameters of these augmented models (or a distribution of the parameters consistent with the data) may be determined. Multiple simulations for prospective experiments or trials, with different parameter values generated from the distributions, can then be used to predict a range of outcomes and the related likelihood of each outcome. Such dose-exposure, exposure-response, or dose-response models can be classified as steady state, stochastic, of low to moderate complexity, predictive, and quantitative. A case study is described in Section 22.6. 

Miniaturisation of SPE has also been described [504]. Thurman and Mills [508] discussed the history and future of SPE. The technique will continue to replace LLE. More on-line use of both LC and GC are prospected. As instruments such as GC-MS and HPLC-MS become more sensitive, smaller sample sizes may be used. New phases will continue to be introduced to take full advantage of specific interactions. It is expected that at last sample handling and SPE will reach the level of sophistication that its relatives in LC have reached, and perhaps go beyond.

Under these circumstances, it may be unrealistic to expect research subjects to give scientists their DNA, family histories, and medical records for free. If the scientists are looking for millions, prospective research subjects may well wonder why their contribution should be uncompensated. On the other hand, it is extremely rare that any one individual research subject leads to a genetic breakthrough. Locating and cloning disease genes usually requires contributions of medical histories and DNA from thousands of subjects. Any one subject who held out for payment could be bypassed.

The relative absence of systematic studies of bipolar patients under age 18 forces clinicians to extrapolate data from adult studies. There are four major types of studies that provide information on subjects with bipolar disorder double-blind, placebo-controlled studies of patients with acute mania prospective open-label studies of patients with bipolar disorder (which includes mania, hypomania, manic symptoms, or bipolar NOS, people at risk for mania because of their family history, and those with a history of mania who are not currently manic) case series and anecdotal reports.
