Full textMPG is a metalworking production company that recently refocused to the shipbuilding activity, particularly hulls for offshore support vessel (OSV) for staff and equipment transport to oil platforms. As offshore oil platforms increase, so does the demand for OSV, particularly in the Middle East - one of world’s leaders in the offshore investment. Since the Portuguese market doesn’t present itself as solution and the European market is highly competitive, it is necessary to develop an internationalization plan - the Middle East appears as a very attractive opportunity for MPG to develop operations and gain new competences, like the delivery of a ready to use vessel. Considering the Middle Eastern market, a joint venture with a Qatari shipping company arises as the best way to achieve the company’s goals. To pursue that path, MPG must first develop new services from project management to production follow-up to other companies; contact Portuguese and Qatari institutions for market information and financial assistance and attend promotional events in the Middle East. MPG would focus on design, planning and production vessels, its main competences, leaving the investment of $200 million1 in facilities, equipment and the other activities to its partner. Since finding the right partner is crucial to be successful, MPG may start with exports for the Middle East region, get experience and knowledge of the market and only then find a Qatari partner.

Full textAnti-Semitism has become a virulent, pervasive phenomenon in the Modern Middle East today. In the past, anti-Semitism was mostly absent from mainstream Middle Eastern society. In the past two centuries, however, social and political upheaval, the encroachment of Western influence in the region, and the effects of Zionist organizations and the state of Israel have made the region a dangerous place for Jews. Anti-Semitism is perpetuated today by political and religious leaders as well as the media and is fueled by the anger and frustration of the people of the Middle East. This study examines the roots and causes of anti-Semitism in Middle Eastern history, in the religions and foreign powers that have impacted the region, and in the events of the twentieth century. It details the nature of anti-Semitism today and examines this phenomenon specifically in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan in a comparative case study. This investigation closes by examining the possible steps towards ending Jew hatred in the region

Full textAs Iran's nuclear capabilities continue to be at the forefront of policy and security issues for many nations, the methods by which Iran perpetuates further instability are equally strategic. Militant-proxy groups, such as Hezbollah, have significant military capabilities, as well as political influence that are the driving forces behind Iran's regional influence. Concurrent to the intensive use of proxies, Iran is deliberately trying to weaken regimes through information framing. Iran's addresses to the Arab world are framed to a specific audience and with the tone of animosity towards the West and non-Muslims. Hezbollah also serves as a viable source for Iran's information framing; while Hezbollah's military and political sphere of influence within Lebanon continues to impose Lebanon's governmental control, Iran has achieved political success under Hezbollah's guise. This thesis explores the symbiotic relationship between Hezbollah and Iran and will center on how Iran has achieved relative success in destabilizing Gulf States. This thesis explores the overarching theme between the use of Hezbollah and information framing and the correlation between the reception of the Gulf region as observable effects of success.

Full textLa precipitación es uno de los elementos climáticos más importantes y difíciles de predecir. La dificultad se asocia con el transporte de humedad por medio de los frentes meteorológicos que cambian su camino, forma e intensidad en diferentes escalas espaciales y temporales. A pesar de esta dificultad, es necesaria una predicción adecuada de la lluvia para cuantificar los recursos y las infraestructuras necesarias para llevar el agua a los campos agrícolas y las ciudades, y también para anticipar la ocurrencia de episodios de precipitación extrema que pueden causar muertes humanas y grandes pérdidas económicas. El objetivo principal de esta disertación es investigar la influencia de los sistemas climáticos en los patrones y la intensidad de la precipitación en Iraq, desde su variabilidad a diferentes escalas temporales (desde diarias hasta interdecadal) hasta la contribución de los eventos de precipitación severa a la precipitación total y los mecanismos subyacentes a estos episodios extremos. Con este objetivo, utilizamos registros de precipitación mensual (1938-2016) y diaria (2005-2016) provenientes de una estación meteorológica en la ciudad de Bagdad, dirigida por la organización de meteorología y sismología iraquí. Esta estación se encuentra en las grandes llanuras centrales de Iraq, (33.33°N, 44.43°E) y 34 m de elevación, donde la variabilidad topográfica es casi inexistente. Utilizamos además la temperatura, humedad, altura geopotencial, velocidad horizontal y vertical, divergencia horizontal, vorticidad relativa y campos de vorticidad potencial provenientes del análisis atmosférico global ERA-Interim, disponible cuatro veces al día en una malla de 0.75º×0.75º de latitud-longitud, provenientes del Centro Europeo de Pronósticos Meteorológicos de Medio Alcance (ECMWF). Estos datos, descargados para un dominio que se extiende de 0° a 60°E y de 10°N a 60°N, se usan para calcular la temperatura potencial equivalente, el agua precipitable, el flujo de humedad, la convergencia del flujo de humedad, la divergencia del vector Q , la vorticidad relativa y la advección de vorticidad potencial, así como varios índices de inestabilidad (K, CAPE, SWEAT y LI). El cuerpo del trabajo se divide en cuatro secciones diferentes. Después de un capítulo introductorio, en el Capítulo 2 nos enfocamos en el análisis de los datos mensuales de lluvia para el período 1938-2016. Para la mayor parte de nuestro análisis usamos años naturales, desde el 1 de julio hasta el 30 de junio, para que los años estén lógicamente separados por la temporada seca de verano. La precipitación media anual es de 135.8 ± 61.9 mm/año y la precipitación media mensual es de 11.3 ± 18.7 mm (aumentando a 17.1 ± 20.9 mm si ignoramos los meses secos de junio a agosto). A pesar de que la tendencia lineal para todo el período es pequeña, hay décadas (1950 y 1960) de precipitación anual media relativamente alta (150-170 mm/año) y otras (1990 y 2000) con valores sustancialmente menores (100-120 mm/año). La serie temporal de lluvias también muestra la existencia de variaciones interanuales sustanciales, con valores de precipitación anual que oscilan entre 29,3 y 307,7 mm (2012 y 1974, respectivamente). La función de densidad de probabilidad de la precipitación anual nos permite definir los años áridos/húmedos (precipitación anual inferior/superior a los percentiles 25/75) con valores medios de 64.6 y 220.1 mm/año, respectivamente. El ciclo estacional cambia sustancialmente entre los años áridos y húmedos, con diciembre-febrero recibiendo la mayoría de las precipitaciones (10-15 mm/mes, con diciembre presentando la mayor variabilidad) durante los años áridos, y noviembre-abril recogiendo la mayoría de las precipitaciones (30-40 mm/mes, con marzo, abril y noviembre altamente variables) durante los años lluviosos. Los cambios interanuales en las precipitaciones no muestran correlación con un índice global de El Niño-Oscilación del Sur. En el Capítulo 3 analizamos una serie temporal de 12 años de datos diarios (2005-2016) de la estación meteorológica de Bagdad. Para este período, la precipitación anual fue de 130.8 ± 67.1 mm/año, con valores anuales que varían entre 29.3 y 278.1 mm en solo dos años (2012 y 2014, respectivamente). A partir de los datos de ERA-Interim, y con la ayuda de un algoritmo numérico, identificamos la contribución de los cut-off lows a la precipitación: 38 eventos (14 con precipitaciones superiores a 20 mm) contribuyeron al 43-4% de la precipitación total sobre Bagdad. Los cut-off lows ocurren todo el año, pero aquellos que tienen lugar entre octubre y diciembre representan un tercio de la precipitación anual total. Encontramos que la mayoría de las variaciones interanuales en las precipitaciones están asociadas a estos cut-off lows, con su contribución aumentando desde 31,3 mm durante los tres años secos a 512,3 mm durante los tres años húmedos (un aumento en un factor de 16). En el Capítulo 4 hemos considerado cuidadosamente la dinámica detrás del episodio de lluvia extrema del 18-20 de noviembre de 2013, el mayot desde 1980. Las condiciones de la atmósfera media y alta resultaron del desarrollo de un bloque omega hacia un bloque Rex, con la parte oriental de la estructura ciclónica del bloque Rex experimentando intensa divergencia horizontal y fuertes movimientos ascendentes entre 1000 y 250 hPa. Simultáneamente, la atmósfera inferior (de 1000 a 700 hPa) exhibía intensos vientos fríos del sur que traían grandes cantidades de humedad al centro de Iraq. Estos aires húmedos fueron el resultado de una evaporación sustancial del agua, y la consecuente liberación de calor, desde el Mar Rojo hacia la atmósfera, como lo demuestra el enfriamiento simultáneo de sus aguas superficiales. Finalmente, en el Capítulo 5, nuevamente combinamos los datos diarios de precipitaciones de Bagdad con el análisis ERA-Interim para explorar los patrones climáticos asociados con los 20 eventos de precipitación extrema para el período 2005-2016. Estos eventos trajeron 805.2 mm (51.3%) de la precipitación total a la estación de Bagdad, distribuidos de la siguiente manera: 7 eventos relacionados con las condiciones del bloque Rex (causando la precipitación más alta, 324.1 mm o 40.3% de la precipitación total del evento extremo), 7 episodios relacionados con cut-off lows (252.6 mm o 31.4%), 2 casos relacionados con jet streaks (95.3 mm o 11.8%) y 4 eventos relacionados con upper-air troughs (133.2 mm o 16.5%). Brevemente caracterizamos las condiciones sinópticas durante estos 20 episodios, con una descripción más detallada de un caso de cut-off low, jet streak y upper-air trough.
