Eiropas Savienības CO2 emisijas kvotu tirdzniecības sistēma un Latvijas tautsaimniecības ilgtspējīga attīstība
2013
ANOTĀCIJA Promocijas darba mērķis ir, balstoties uz datiem par Eiropas Savienības Emisijas kvotu tirdzniecības sistēmas (ES ETS) darbību Latvijā un ES ETS integrētību Latvijas tautsaimniecības politikā, mikro un makro līmenī izpētīt ES ETS līdzšinējo ietekmi uz Latvijas tautsaimniecības ilgtspējīgu attīstību. Pētījuma ietvaros autore izstrādājusi modeli lēmuma pieņemšanai par tiešo dalību atļauju tirdzniecībā, formulējusi stratēģijas tiešajai dalībai atļauju tirdzniecībā, izvērtējusi ES ETS integrētību Latvijas tautsaimniecības ilgtspējīgas attīstības politikā, novērtējusi ES ETS ietekmi uz Latvijas ES ETS dalībniekiem, izanalizējusi Latvijas ES ETS dalībnieku zināšanas un izpratni par ES E…

Analysis of fumonisins B1, B2 and B3 in corn-based baby food by pressurized liquid extraction and liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry
2008
A sensitive and reliable method using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and liquid chromatography (LC)/electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry with a triple quadrupole (QqQ) analyzer has been developed for the analysis of fumonisin B(1) (FB(1)), fumonisin B(2) (FB(2)) and fumonisin B(3) (FB(3)) in corn-based baby foods. Influence of several extraction parameters that affect PLE efficiency such as temperature, pressure, solvent extraction, number of cycles and dispersant/clean-up agents were studied. The selected PLE operating method was: 3g of sample was packed into 11 ml stainless-steel cell and fumonisins were extracted with methanol at 40 degrees C, 34 atm in one cycle o…
An Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis of European Regional Disparities, 1980–1995
2003
European integration has stimulated numerous studies of regional economic convergence within the European Union in recent macroeconomic and regional science literature (e.g. Abraham and Von Rompuy 1995; Armstrong 1995a; Neven and Gouyette 1995; Martin 2001). Most of the time, the empirical methods that have been used are identical to the methods employed in international studies. However, spatial effects, particularly spatial autocorrelation and spatial heterogeneity, must be taken into account when analyzing the convergence process at regional scale. There are number of factors — trade between regions, technology, knowledge diffusion and more generally regional spillovers — that lead to ge…
Evaluating European Union support for innovation in Spanish small and medium enterprises
2009
Finding funding is one of the main problems small and medium enterprises (SMEs) face, which is why the European Union has set up programmes to support SME development. This paper has two objectives: firstly, to describe the different European funding programmes available to Spanish firms; secondly, to present an empirical study on the use Spanish SMEs (and especially, SMEs in the service sector) make of these programmes in order to innovate, together with an analysis of the importance these funding programmes have on SME innovation.
Les mouvements de capitaux en union économique et monétaire : approches historiques et théoriques
2019
The liberalization of international capital flows seems linked to the increase and worsening of financial crisis. Since the financial crisis in 2007-2008, the ideological dimension of “happy globalization” has brought to light and given new strength to dissentient voices that could not be heard before. This thesis tries to evaluate the importance of capital flows on the stability of à financial system. Its purpose is to compare different financial systems and levels of financial liberalization, using the Economic and Monetary Union as an example because it combined full liberalization of the capital market within the zone a well as in relations with the outside. We have considered the need …
ES enerģijas politika un Turcijas loma energoapgādes drošības kontekstā.
2015
Ņemot vērā vietējo energoresursu trūkumu, ES ir bijusi enerģijas importētājas pozīcijā jau kopš tās dibināšanas. Lai gan energoapgādes drošība galvenokārt ir bijusi ES darba kārtībā, tikai nesen ir veikti stingri drošības pasākumi. Konflikts starp Ukrainu un Krieviju sākās 2013. gadā un parāda, cik steidzama un stingra rīcība ir nepieciešama, lai tiktu nodrošināta droša energoapgāde. Saistībā ar iepriekš minēto, enerģijas piegāžu diversifikācija ieņem ļoti īpašu lomu dalībvalstu dienaskārtībā kopā ar to uzticamo sabiedroto - Turciju. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir izskaidrot kā ES enerģētiskā atkarība ir mainījusies laika gaitā, analizēt esošos energoapgādes drošības pasākumus un pierādīt Turcijas l…
EUROPEAN UNION EMISSIONS TRADING SYSTEM’S IMPACT ON LATVIA’S COMPETITIVENESS
2012
The goal of this paper is to analyse the general impact of the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) on Latvia’s competitiveness. The hypothesis of this paper – the EU ETS in past did not had a significant impact on Latvia’s competitiveness. At the beginning of the paper the EU ETS mechanism is discussed in the context of M.E. Porter’s identified principal factors determining state’s competitiveness. Afterwards the EU ETS operation in Latvia is described and its impact on Latvia’s competitiveness is analysed. The analysis is based on statistical data about Latvia’s 79 companies and their operation in 2005-2010, inter alia, allocations and transactions of European Union Allowances…
Rusia y la política energética de la Unión Europea
2010
A raíz de las irregularidades en el suministro de gas a la UE en 2006 y 2009 procedente de Rusia se ha vuelto a plantear el papel de este país en el ámbito energético-gasista europeo. En el diseño de un marco para la política energética europea se ha ido reconociendo un papel singular a Rusia, aunque una de las formas de incorporar a ese país en el ámbito energético europeo ha sido a través de su consideración como un riesgo geopolítico. Este enfoque se sustenta en el gran volumen de hidrocarburos que la UE adquiere en Rusia, dependencia que puede suponer que ese país pueda influir unilateralmente en el establecimiento de cantidades y precios, así como en las formas de reorganización del se…
The European DEMO fusion reactor: Design status and challenges from balance of plant point of view
2017
DEMO initial conceptual design studies are being conducted in Europe as part of the European Union Roadmap to Fusion Electricity, which aims to demonstrate the feasibility of electricity produced by nuclear fusion reactors around the middle of this century. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the DEMO project, highlighting its main characteristics and challenges in terms of design, integration, and operation. Particular emphasis is given on some important systems of the Balance of Plant (BoP), such as the primary heat transfer systems, the related power conversion systems, and the electrical power plant. The relevance of such systems is due to the need of a continuous reanaly…
