"By the time they reach the dairy processor, it's almost spoiled," says Sam White, co-founder of Boston-based Promethean Power Systems, a company that's aiming to fill the industry's cold chain gap in India.
Similarly the concept of a 'interpersonal hot-cold empathy gap' suggests that a person in one emotional state (e.g. the peer-observer in a cold emotional state) cannot assess how emotions will influence the behaviour of a person in a different emotional state (e.g. the assessed doctor in a hot emotional state) [ 31].
When cold chain gaps were identified, they assisted the procurement department in identifying appropriate incinerators and installation sites for the incinerators.
There were no significant effects of cold status on gap acceptance.
Of even greater concern is the modern-day equivalent of the Cold War's Fulda Gap, known as the "Suwalki Gap".
Even when we are in the midst of the so-called "hungry gap" – that cold period in between winter and spring, when locally grown vegetables are scarce – we have an inspiring selection of vegetables being harvested on UK soil, and the likes of oranges from the Mediterranean.
To address this information gap for cold climate markets, we report on the results of a recent survey of occupants of eco-house units in and around Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
It is based on a concept termed the "cold to hot empathy gap".
One solution is to include long, although currently error-prone, reads from platforms such as PacBio in such a way that the combined data reduce the errors and span the gaps (Mike Schatz, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories, USA).
Some of the major factors that determine this trend include: low proportion of population immunized which is responsible for herd immunity, challenges with cold chain logistics and gaps in the timing of the vaccine administration which create a period of inadequate protection to the child.
