Logistics integration and network orientation in the port maritime industry have redefined functional role of ports value chains generated new patterns freight distribution approaches to hierarchy. Existing models on spatial evolution systems only partially fit into paradigm. This paper aims add existing literature by introducing a regionalization phase system development. It is demonstrated that associated hinterland concepts demand governance focus goes beyond traditional perimeter.
Economic shocks test the resilience and adaptability of shipping industry container ports. Each crisis triggers different ramifications in market. This paper investigates temporal spatial sequences supply demand COVID-19 on ports by comparing these events to 2008–2009 financial crisis. Using operational data from primary secondary sources, we analyze short-term impacts their differences, reasons for variations, evolution adaptive capacity ports, terminal operators, carriers. The analysis...
The paper discusses how logistics service providers are using terminals in their supply chains. It argues that an increasing 'terminalization' of chains is unfolding, whereby seaport and inland taking up a more active role by increasingly confronting market players with operational considerations such as imposing berthing windows, dwell time charges, truck slots, all this to increase throughput, optimize terminal capacity make the best use available land. With development terminals, new...
High prevalences of hindlimb deformities were recorded in wild-caught green frogs (Rana clamitans), northern leopard pipiens), American toads, (Bufo americanus), and bullfrogs catesbeiana) from agricultural sites exposed to pesticide runoff the St. Lawrence River Valley Québec, Canada, between July September 1992 1993. Of 853 metamorphosing anurans examined 14 farmland habitats, 106 (12%; range 0 69%) had severe degrees ectromelia ectrodactyly, compared only two (0.7%; 7.7%) 271 12 control...
Abstract: Emerging infectious diseases may be contributing to the global decline of amphibian populations. In particular, chytridiomycosis, a cutaneous fungal infection amphibians caused by chytrid Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis , gained attention in 1990s as an apparently new pathogen. This fungus has been implicated causative agent widespread mortalities among wild geographically disparate parts world. To investigate distribution, historical occurrence, and infectiousness this pathogen, we...
<b>PURPOSE</b> On the eve of major primary health care reforms, we conducted a multilevel survey clinics to identify attributes clinic organization and physician practice that predict accessibility, continuity, coordination as experienced by patients. <b>METHODS</b> Primary were selected stratified random sampling in urban, suburban, rural, remote locations Quebec, Canada. Up 4 family or general physicians each clinic, 20 patients seeing used Care Assessment Tool report on first-contact...
The terminal and stevedoring industry has expanded substantially in recent years with the emergence of global container operators controlling large multinational portfolios assets. This paper deals emerging corporate geography issues related to similarities or differences among locations, processes leading expansion these holdings interactions they maintain as nodes within freight distribution system. It will be demonstrated that show varying degrees involvement main cargo handling markets...
