Effects of financial turmoil on financial integration and risk premia in emerging markets by Boubakri, Salem

“…The aim of this article is to analyze how financial crises affect the dynamics of international financial integration and of the risk premia in emerging markets. Accordingly, we estimate a variant of the International Asset Pricing Model developed by Carrieri et al. (2007), allowing for time-varying stock market integration, in which we include the foreign currency risk. …”

Influence Of Surface Finish Parameters On Corrosion Of Zinc by Mourad, M. Y. [ممدوح درويش الديري]

“…Also, it was found that the increase in surface roughness has two connecting effects. The first leads to a decrease in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the cathodic surface area while the second leads to an increase in corrosion potential due to a decrease in the peak to valley distances of surface irregularities…”

Symbiotic dinoflagellates associated with corals in Qatar: characterization and physiological response to environmental change by Eldos, Haneen Ibrahim

“…Coral bleaching events witnessed during the last decades in the Arabian Gulf are believed to be the result of the effect of heat events occurring more frequently in the region as a result of the global ocean warming. When corals are under thermal stress, their symbiotic zooxanthellae are affected, and their photosynthetic activity decreases until the stress disappears or until the zooxanthellae are expelled from the coral. …”
