L’esatto riferimento dei due mari rimane materia di dibattito. La posizione di Barain è in una baia formata dalla Penisola Arabica e dalla Penisola del Catar, e qualcuno identifica i due mari come le acque della baia che bagnano le coste dell’Isola. Altri ritengono che il nome si riferisca all’isola che separa l’Arabia a S e l’Iran a N. Ancora una terza posizione presuppone che il primo mare sia quello intorno a Barain e l’altro le abbondanti acque naturali che scorrono sotto l’isola stessa.

  • Secondary School Effectiveness: an Empirical Study in the Country of Bahrain
    Secondary school effectiveness: An empirical study in the country of Bahrain By Tahani Hasan Ali Maki A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Brunel Business School Brunel University London August 2017 Abstract Bahrain is a developed country that faces different economic and political challenges. Economically, Bahrain depends mostly on oil. However, there are some attempts to diversify its economy. Bahrain has established several economic projects to boost its economy including Bahrainization (Nationalization), Tamkeen (Labour fund), the Bahrain Business Incubator center, the banking sector, transport and communication, manufacturing and education. The Ministry of Education has established various educational projects to accommodate Bahrain Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the economy of Bahrain, building strategies of government and encouragement of a partnership between the private and public sector and the provision of an effective education system based on well trained teachers, enhancing the performance of public schools, provision of equal education opportunities for all students and improving and encouraging scientific education. This study investigates the different measures of secondary school effectiveness in Bahrain as a result of the new development of the education system in Bahrain including both teaching and improvement programs. These were initiated by the Ministry of Education in Bahrain and educational specialists. The literature reviews showed that secondary school effectiveness has been examined using specific factors – students’ performance, teachers’ performance, leadership. However, other factors such as leader-member exchange, value congruence, supportive supervisor communication and task performance have not been investigated well in the education sector and at the secondary school level in particular. The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of leader-member exchange, value congruence, supportive supervisor communication and task performance on secondary school effectiveness in Bahrain.

The two-phase project called for the excavation and placement of some 80 million cubic meters of material, as a joint venture with AA Nass Contracting, who handled the rock works portion of the contract. • Phase I: 35 million cubic meters of marine borrow material over a 36-month period to reclaim 6 million square meters of new land. • Phase II: 45 million cubic meters of marine borrow material over a 36-month period to reclaim another 6 million square meters of land. DURRAT AL BAHRAIN Client: The Bahrain Government and Kuwait Finance House Dredge Type: Cutter Suction Dredge Dredges: Carolina, California, Utah & Alabama The Durrat Al Bahrain resort construction project was completed through a joint venture between Great Lakes and AA Nass Contracting. The project involved the reclamation of over 6 million square meters of land for the creation of the resort, which consists of 13 islands, with over 2,000 villas and 2,000 apartments, with luxury hotels, restaurants, promenades, shopping centers, marina, spas, sports facilities and an 18-hole golf course.

  • Significance of Artificial Island in Overcoming the Scarcity of Land Due to Global Warming and Sea-Level Rise
    Journal of Energy and Power Engineering 11 (2017) 427-434 doi: 10.17265/1934-8975/2017.06.008 D DAVID PUBLISHING Significance of Artificial Island in Overcoming the Scarcity of Land due to Global Warming and Sea-Level Rise Needa Javed Department of Architecture & Interior Design, University of Bahrain, Tubli 00973, Bahrain Received: March 06, 2017 / Accepted: March 20, 2017 / Published: June 30, 2017. Abstract: This paper highlights the idea of constructing a building or group of buildings partially in the water. It attempts to describe the futuristic proposal of constructing on water due to scarcity of land and decreasing of lands due to global warming issues and the resulted sea level rise, also the consequences of making artificial (man-made) islands that are in direct connection to Bahrain Island. This report briefly examines the theoretical roots of the proposal including basic criteria and architectural aspects of structure within water body that could satisfy the human needs. Key words: Building on water, artificial islands, comparison, structure, architectural aspect. 1. Introduction 1.2 Need of the Project 1.1 Inspiration of the Project “Due to a lot of land reclamation in Bahrain and Bahrain has limited land area which leads to having less coastal areas to be built around and the threat of urban developing projects due to the needs for future sea level rise , this project provides an alternative for urban lands. The inspiration of the project comes from land reclamation with constructing in the water that the growing trend of reclamation of the land and the could reduce the environmental effects due to land fact that by reclaiming the land we are faced by many reclamation to minimum.” As we know three quarters social and economical problems [1] consequently, this of the earth is made up of water yet humans decide to reclamation damages and destroys the marine live and live on land and overpopulate it.

  • Offshore Wind Energy Potential for Bahrain Via Multi-Criteria Evaluation
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 18 December 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202012.0474.v1 Research Article Offshore Wind Energy Potential for Bahrain via Multi-criteria Evaluation Mohamed Elgabiri 1, Diane Palmer 1,*, Hanan Al Buflasa 2 and Murray Thomson 1 1 Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK; [email protected] 2 University of Bahrain, Kingdom of Bahrain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44 1509 635604. ORCID 0000-0002-5381-0504 Abstract: Current global commitments to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases encourage national targets for renewable generation. Due to its small land mass, offshore wind could help Bahrain to fulfill its obligations. However, no scoping study has yet been carried out. The methodology presented here addresses this research need. It employs Analytical Hierarchy Process and pairwise comparison methods in a Geographical Information Systems environment. Publicly available land use, infrastructure and transport data are used to exclude areas unsuitable for development due to physical and safety constraints. Meteorological and oceanic opportunities are ranked, then competing uses are analyzed to deliver optimal sites for wind farms. The potential annual wind energy yield is calculated by dividing the sum of optimal areas by a suitable turbine footprint, to deliver maximum turbine number. Ten favourable wind farm areas were identified in Bahrain’s territorial waters, representing about 4% of the total maritime area, and capable of supplying 2.68 TWh/yr of wind energy or almost 10% of the Kingdom’s annual electricity consumption. Detailed maps of potential sites for offshore wind construction are provided in the paper, giving an initial plan for installation in these locations.
