  • ISRAEL 15 Study Visit What Will It Take to Leap Israel's Social and Economic Performance? Mon-Thu, June 8 – June 11, 2009
    1 March 2009 ISRAEL 15 Study Visit What Will It Take to Leap Israel's Social and Economic Performance? Mon-Thu, June 8 – June 11, 2009 The ISRAEL 15 Vision The ISRAEL 15 Vision aims to place Israel among the fifteen leading countries in terms of quality of life. This vision requires a 'leapfrog' from our present state of development i.e. a significant and continuous improvement in Israel's social and economic performance in comparison to other countries. Our Study Visit will focus on this vision and challenge. The ISRAEL 15 Agenda and Strategy There is no recipe for leapfrogging; it is the result of a virtuous alignment in economic policy, powerful global trends and national leadership. Few countries have leapt including Ireland, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Chile, and Israel (between the 50s- 70s). The common denominator among these countries has been their agenda. They focused on: developing a rich and textured vision; exhausting engines of growth; tapping into unique advantages; improving the capacity for taking decisions and implementing them; benchmarking with other countries; and turning development and growth into a national obsession. Furthermore, leapfrogging requires a top-down process driven by the government, as well as a bottom-up mobilization of the key sectors of society such as mayors and municipal governments, business leaders, nonprofits, philanthropists, career public servants and, in Israel's case, also the world Jewry. The Study Visit will explore this agenda as it applies to Israel. The Second ISRAEL 15 Conference; Monday, June 8, 2009 The Second ISRAEL 15 Conference titled: "Effectuating the Vision Now!" will be held on Monday, June 8th.

  • Soil Moisture Measurements by Synthetic Aperture Radar and Scatterometers in the Arid and Semi-Arid Environment
    Blumberg, D. G. SOIL MOISTURE MEASUREMENTS BY SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR AND SCATTEROMETERS IN THE ARID AND SEMI-ARID ENVIRONMENT D. G. Blumberg(1), V. Freilikher (2) (1)Department of Geography and Environmental Development and the Negev Center for Regional Development Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel; (2)Department of Physics Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel KEY WORDS: Radar, Soil-water-content, Scatterometer, Negev. ABSTRACT Water is a scarce commodity in desert regions; yet, most remote sensing experiments of soil moisture have been conducted in temperate areas. The ability to detect and reliably assess soil moisture in the arid environment has important implications both at the micro scale such as the individual farm and at the macro scale for climate modeling. A series of experiments utilizing an airborne scatterometer operating at P-band were conducted to assess the ability to measure soil moisture over farmlands in the Negev Desert by remote sensing. The soil moisture is determined by measuring the backscattered radar signal at the scatterometer. Results show that in the arid environment of the Negev scatterometer data correlate well with field measured soil water content. The water content values measured were between 2 and 7% (volumetric). Some extreme values were measured at the Ramat Negev experimental farm. A later visit to the farm confirmed a faucet leak at the location of the extensive values (>20%.) We could also detect an increase in water content adjacent to a sewer reclemation pond at Mashabei Sadeh. A second series of experiments were conducted with spaceborne synthetic aperture radar using the ERS-2 SAR system.

  • En Forensic Architecture, Hacia Una Estética Investigativa

FORENSIC ARCHITECTURE — FORENSIC ARCHITECTURE HACIA UNA ESTÉTICA INVESTIGATIVA El poblado y el cementerio de los al-Turi en al-Araqib: imagen captada con cometa sobreimpresa sobre una fotografía de la RAF (imágenes 5033 El poblado y el cementerio de los al-Turi y 5034) fechada en 1945. La imagen captada por la cometa consta de dos fotografías tomadas estaciones del año distintas, límites del desierto son o áridos verdes. Hagit Keysar/Public Lab, Ariel Caine, Zochrot, Forensic Architecture, poblado de al En muchos aspectos, Forensic Architecture es la reencarnación 055 actual de la factografía soviética, una iniciativa colectiva que, en los años veinte y treinta del siglo XX, fue concebida con el propósito de construir hechos, en lugar de limitarse a documentarlos. La diferencia entre ambos empeños —los dos de un atrevimiento similar a la hora de servirse de los últimos progresos tecnológicos y de los medios— es que los hechos que Forensic Architecture pretende (re)construir son, en su mayor parte, actos de violencia que el propio Estado que los ha cometido oculta de forma deliberada. Estos hechos se registran en edificios (o en lo que queda de ellos) que Weizman y su equipo identifican tanto con fotografías (sensores) como con herramientas para decodificar otros sensores (como las nubes que se ciernen sobre una ciudad bombardeada). Al analizar el enorme banco de imágenes que proporcionan las redes sociales en las zonas en conflicto mediante un cálculo de paralajes diferenciales, Forensic Architecture se está convirtiendo rápidamente en la máquina visual más efectiva contra la ocultación de pruebas que persiguen los autores de crímenes de lesa humanidad.

  • Soil Water Assessment Using a P-Band Scatterometer and Ers-2 Sar
    SOIL WATER ASSESSMENT USING A P-BAND SCATTEROMETER AND ERS-2 SAR D. G. Blumberg (1), J. Ben-Asher(1) ,G. Ronen(1), M. Sprintsin(1), V. Freilikher(2), L. Volfson(2), and A. Kotlyar(2). (1) Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, P.O. Box 653, Beer Sheva 84105, Israel. E-mail: [email protected] (2) Bar-Ilan University , , Ramat Gan, Israel ABSTRACT/RESUME Soil water content is an important component that influences meso- and micro scale processes. The agricultural capacity of a site is directly affected by soil water content and is especially important in arid regions. Furthermore, climate studies face the never ending problem of trying to lay a hand on climate surface conditions. Many of these are not measured continuously and thus are not available. One of the more important parameters is soil water-content. In this study we mapped soil water content in the Negev Desert using ERS-2 with multiple look directions and utilized a P-band scatterometer. Results show water content values ranging from 4-20% volumetric, with a high correlation to ground measurements. 1. INTRODUCTION Soil water content is an important component that influences meso- and micro scale processes. The most developed models for extracting soil water-content are those that utilize polarimetric SAR data. However, the wavelengths most insensitive to surface roughness and thus, most sensitive to soil water content are the longer wavelengths (i.e., P-band). These are not readily available in Space and therefore different methods need to be used at this time. The use of archival spaceborne data provides the possibility of reprocessing data acquired in the past and reconstructing missing surface data.

PUB DATE 74 GRANT OEG-0-70-4534 NOTE 163p.; Appendix B, consisting of copyrighted articles, was removed; It is not included in the Pagination EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$7.80 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS Behavior Patterns; *Child Development; *Child Rearing; *Collective Settlements; Family Relationship; *Group Experience; Parent Role; Peer Relationship; Research Projects; Social Development; *Socialization IDENTIFIERS *Israel; Kibbutzim; Moshavim ABSTRACT Four years of an ongoing research project designed to investigate the joint impact of family, peers, teacher, and professional upbringers on the sociaiization of children in Israel are reported. Data are gathered on child behavior and socialization practices from ifth, sixth, and seventh graders. Settings in the two major waves of field work completed are kibbutzim, cities, and moshavim. Instruments administered provided information on the behaviors of a child's socializing agents, on his commitment socially-sanctioned behaviors, and on his development ofa social and work identity as opposed to a sense of alienation. The results contradict the beliefs that kibbutz parents offer little nurtarance to their children, that the peer group is the child's major source of support on the kibbutz, and that sex differences are uniformly of smaller magnitude on the kibbutz. Expected relationships borne out by the data are that kibbutz children are more independent of parents while children of Eastern origin exhibit less autonomy than those of Western background. Appendixes include a description of sample, and articles on testing for group differences, reactions to social pressure, and socialization of moral behavior in cross-cultural perspective.
