Trade facilitation refers to the simplification, standardization and harmonization of procedures and associated information flows required to move goods from seller to buyer and to make payment.

Inertial waves, also known as inertial oscillations, are a type of mechanical wave possible in rotating fluids. Unlike surface gravity waves commonly seen at the beach or in the bathtub, inertial waves flow through the interior of the fluid, not at the surface. (Wikipedia. 2025. Inertial wave. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_wave)

Contagious agalactia is a serious disease syndrome of sheep and goats that is characterised by mastitis, arthritis, keratoconjunctivitis and, occasionally, abortion. Mycoplasma agalactiae (Ma) is the main cause of the disease in sheep and goats, but M. capricolum subsp. capricolum (Mcc), M. mycoides subsp. capri (Mmc) and M. putrefaciens (Mp) produce a clinically similar disease, more often in goats, which may be accompanied by pneumonia.

An antidune is a bedform found in fluvial and other channeled environments. In antidunes, sediment is deposited on the upstream (stoss) side and eroded from the downstream (lee) side, opposite lower flow regime bedforms. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antidune)

The Horro is classified as a fat-tailed hairy sheep and is similar in ancestry with the fat-tailed, hair sheep that inhabit the whole of eastern and southern Africa from Ethiopia southwards. ((Mason and Maule, 1960; Epstein, 1971; Wilson, 1991; DAGRIS, 2003).)

Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia is an infection caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies mycoides small colony type (MmmSC). Individual infections may be sub-clinical or result in peracute to chronic disease. CBPP is an insidious disease that lingers in herds, causing significant morbidity and mortality.

Sequence identity is the number (%) of matches (identical characters) in positions from an alignment of two molecular sequences. (EDAM - Bioscientific data analysis ontology, cited 15 March 2023 http://edamontology.org/data_1412)

Phyllactinia guttata is a species of fungus in the Erysiphaceae family; the anamorph of this species is Ovulariopsis moricola. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllactinia_guttata)

Diagenesis’ refers to the physical and chemical processes that affect sedimentary materials after deposition and before metamorphism and between deposition and weathering. (K.L. Milliken, in Treatise on Geochemistry (Second Edition), 2014)
