  • 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.

  • Jnf Blueprint Negev: 2009 Campaign Update
    JNF BLUEPRINT NEGEV: 2009 CAMPAIGN UPDATE In the few years since its launch, great strides have been made in JNF’s Blueprint Negev campaign, an initiative to develop the Negev Desert in a sustainable manner and make it home to the next generation of Israel’s residents. In Be’er Sheva: More than $30 million has already been invested in a city that dates back to the time of Abraham. For years Be’er Sheva was an economically depressed and forgotten city. Enough of a difference has been made to date that private developers have taken notice and begun to invest their own money. New apartment buildings have risen, with terraces facing the riverbed that in the past would have looked away. A slew of single family homes have sprung up, and more are planned. Attracted by the River Walk, the biggest mall in Israel and the first “green” one in the country is Be’er Sheva River Park being built by The Lahav Group, a private enterprise, and will contribute to the city’s communal life and all segments of the population. The old Turkish city is undergoing a renaissance, with gaslights flanking the refurbished cobblestone streets and new restaurants, galleries and stores opening. This year, the municipality of Be’er Sheva is investing millions of dollars to renovate the Old City streets and support weekly cultural events and activities. And the Israeli government just announced nearly $40 million to the River Park over the next seven years. Serious headway has been made on the 1,700-acre Be’er Sheva River Park, a central park and waterfront district that is already transforming the city.

  • 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.

Thus for the successful large scale application of photovoltaic power (PV) in an Revised 24 April 2014 isolated system it is of particular importance to have a proper selection of photovoltaic sites together with an Accepted 25 April 2014 appropriate distribution of installed power. Available online 20 May 2014 The Negev desert in Israel is an ideal location for utility scale PV plants, where the average annual global horizon- ∗ −2 ∗ −1 Keywords: tal radiation is above 2000 [kWh m year ]. In spite of the 10% goal of renewably energy production by year PV 2020, in 2013 less than 1% of Israel's electric energy needs are supplied by PV and now is the best time to propose Negev-desert a proper spatial distribution of PV fleet in Negev that will limit the extreme fluctuations originated from the fleet Smoothing effect without significantly reducing the utilized solar energy. Irradiation fluctuation This paper presents a method of comparing different PV development scenarios by ranking them according to Rank expected power fluctuations.

  • En Forensic Architecture, Hacia Una Estética Investigativa
    cuando los -Araqib, 2016. 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.
