The sun is setting over the water. The day was long and beautiful. The sand felt warm and the water felt cool. Whether you are the kind of person to run around, hitting a ball back and forth with some friends or sitting under the sun with a nice towel and a cool glass of lemonade, the beach is open and able to be enjoyed by all.

    How to gradually turn past failure into future success HOW TO GRADUALLY TURN PAST FAILURE INTO FUTURE SUCCESS Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the MSc in Human Factors and System Safety Michael John Weingartz LUND UNIVERSITY SWEDEN Date of submission: 2007 1 How to gradually turn past failure into future success HOW TO GRADUALLY TURN PAST FAILURE INTO FUTURE SUCCESS Michael John Weingartz 2 How to gradually turn past failure into future success RESEARCH QUESTION Does the progression of stranded whale removal techniques show how conservationists can turn lessons from past failure in to future success? The thesis may end up demonstrating that the gradual conversion of failure into success represents a powerful example of the creation of resilience. Resilience Engineering is a paradigm within safety research that looks at how complex systems show capability to recover the balance after a mishap, or keep the balance in the presence of continuous stress. For an accident model to handle system adaptation over time, it must consider the processes involved in accidents and not simply events and conditions: Processes control a sequence of events and describe system and human behavior over time rather than considering events and human actions individually. Rasmussen argues that accident causation must be viewed as a complex process involving the entire socio-technical system including legislators, government agencies, industry associations and insurance companies, company management, technical and engineering personnel, operations, etc. (Hollnagel, E.2003) In contrast to traditional safety thinking, which with structural means tries to prevent accidents, Resilience Engineering focuses on the ability to actively anticipate changes and threats.

  • Why Do Whales Beach? a Deep-Dive Into What Causes Whales to Strand Themselves on Shore by Stephanie Osmanski
    Why Do Whales Beach? A Deep-Dive Into What Causes Whales to Strand Themselves on Shore By Stephanie Osmanski Source: iStock Why do whales beach? It’s one of the more puzzling phenomena in nature that though humans may study, we still do not understand entirely. We do know that whales can become beached if they wade into too shallow water or if they are sick and can no longer swim. In this case, an exhausted whale won’t be able to continue swimming and then will eventually wash ashore. But we also know that whales are extremely family-oriented, which could be one of the reasons why mass beachings happen, too. The Atlantic reports that in 2018, more than 150 pilot whales washed up on an Australian beach for seemingly no reason. There, the pod died in mass quantities, as the solid surface of land cannot support a whale’s chest walls. Their internal organs became compressed and, eventually, most of the whales stopped breathing. Whale beaching is hardly a problem unique to Australia or to the year 2018. Mass quantities of whales have been recorded beaching in New Zealand, Cape Cod, and Chile. In Cape Cod, Mass., as many as 226 whales and dolphins beach or become stranded there each year. In 2019, a long- reported humpback whale — named Vector by researchers — beached in Cape Cod for seemingly no reason. She had five documented calves and had been spotted near the area as far back as 1984. Since 2016, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has reported the deaths of at least 14 humpback whales in Massachusetts.
