Its exploitation and exploration activities are concentrated in areas with known hydrocarbon resources, which are conducive to multi-well, repeatable drilling programs.
This design allowed us to quantify the particular resources and conditions conducive to fire by contrasting pixels where fires occurred against a random sample of pixels using statistical models that estimate a relative probability of occurrence.
Finally, we evaluate the extent to which the outcomes, natural resource management projects, are conducive to Ostrom's (1990) 'design principles' for sustainable common-pool resource management.
By avoiding the cumbersome interview and evaluation processes associated with structured internships, these tools are far cheaper, less resource intensive, and more conducive to building relationships.
