While my experience doesn't even closely equal what it would be like to run a country, the Bible says not to despise humble beginnings.
As and are closely equal, we could apply them interchangeably.
The month for which average radiation is most closely equal to the monthly average over the whole measurement period is representative of the TMY data for that month.
DME and EtOH are two isomer fuels, with the potential for production from renewable sources, that have virtually identical thermochemistry; i.e. very closely equal heat of combustion and adiabatic flame temperature.
Comparing these two distinct approaches, it is observed that the discrete material forces at the crack tip are closely equal to the tip driving forces, but with different signs, confirming that the lattice approach approximates the values of crack tip material forces using Eshelby-stress distributions.
The mortality rates of PDAC closely equal its incidence [ 3], and the overall 5-year survival rate in patients with PDAC after diagnosis is less than 5%, with no apparent improvement over the past 25 years [ 4, 5].
On the other hand, cost of a set of possible strategies recommended by volunteer CHWs is closely equal to the combined amount of financial loss due to dropout of regular CHWs and subsequent replacement by ad-hoc CHWs and their training.
The total string length is made closely equal to the scale length.
In the case where there is no variation in size of objects, the calculated median size and mean size of objects (nuclei) are equal, or very closely match if there is a small variation in size.
A vital aspect in reforming the Bank (and the IMF) is to ensure that these Bretton Woods "twins" remember that they are part of the UN system and co-operate closely, as equal partners, with other UN organisations such as UNDP, Unicef, WHO, FAO and Unesco.Mr Wolfensohn is right in trying to "shift authority from Washington to offices in the countries where the Bank makes loans".
