The Costs of Favoritism: Is Politically-Driven Aid Less Effective?
TL;DR: This article examined the ex-post performance ratings of World Bank projects and generally found that projects that are potentially politically motivated, such as those granted to governments holding a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council or an Executive Directorship at the World Bank, are no more likely, on average, to get a negative quality rating than other projects.

Continental Margin Off Western Africa: Angola to Sierra Leone
TL;DR: For example, 30,750 line-km of geophysical traverses (seismic reflection and refraction, magnetics, and gravity) were made in the Gulf of Guinea and vicinity aboard R/V Atlantis II during 1972 and 1973 as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration program.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silurian continental distributions, paleogeography, climatology, and biogeography
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of climate on lithology is particularly marked during periods like the Silurian when epeiric seas were widespread and sedimentation was dominantly autochthonous (evaporites, carbonates, reefs, authigenic minerals).
