Sabadell Financial Center
The Sabadell Financial Center is an office building in Downtown Miami, Florida, United States. The tower is 430 feet (130 m) in height and has 31 floors. It is located in the northern Brickell Financial District of Miami, on Brickell Avenue and Southeast 12th Street. Built in 2000, the building is over 95% office space, with the ground floor dedicated to retail.

The intersection at which the building is located is an exceptionally low spot in Brickell that rounds to 0 feet (0 m) above sea level, and is therefore prone to tidal flooding during king tides, storm surges or other exceptionally high tides.

King tide
A king tide is an especially high spring tide, especially the perigean spring tides which occur three or four times a year. King tide is not a scientific term, nor is it used in a scientific context.

The expression originated in Pacific countries to describe especially high tides that occur a few times per year. It is now used in North America as well, particularly in low-lying South Florida, where king tides can cause tidal flooding. In Vancouver, Canada, king tides are a growing problem along its seawall.

It is part of the Pan-European Corridor V, branch b, which runs from Rijeka to Budapest. The line is fully electrified and mostly single-tracked. It is used for freight and passenger (international, regional/commuter) traffic.

In Dugo Selo, the southern terminus of the railway, the line connects to the M102 line to Zagreb and the M103 to Novska and Belgrade. Further junctions exist in Križevci and Koprivnica, to railways L204 and R202 respectively.

Pan-European corridors
The ten Pan-European transport corridors were defined at the second Pan-European transport Conference in Crete, March 1994, as routes in Central and Eastern Europe that required major investment over the next ten to fifteen years. Additions were made at the third conference in Helsinki in 1997. Therefore, these corridors are sometimes referred to as the "Crete corridors" or "Helsinki corridors", regardless of their geographical locations.

These development corridors are distinct from the Trans-European transport networks, which is a European Union project and include all major established routes in the European Union, although there are proposals to combine the two systems, since most of the involved countries now are members of the EU.

The corridors variously encompass road, rail and waterway routes.

Intrathoracic inoculation
Intrathoracic inoculation is a method of inoculation where a virus or other infectious agent is injected directly into the thorax of an insect, often mosquitoes, bypassing the midgut and other barriers to viral infection. This leads to a higher proportion of disseminated infections compared to blood feeding. This technique is used prevalently in Aedes spp., which are known to exhibit midgut infection and midgut escape barriers. The mosquito is therefore infected with a more constant dose of the virus.

Thorax
The thorax (pl.: thoraces or thoraxes) or chest is a part of the anatomy of mammals and other tetrapod animals located between the neck and the abdomen.

In insects, crustaceans, and the extinct trilobites, the thorax is one of the three main divisions of the body, each in turn composed of multiple segments.

The human thorax includes the thoracic cavity and the thoracic wall. It contains organs including the heart, lungs, and thymus gland, as well as muscles and various other internal structures. The chest may be affected by many diseases, of which the most common symptom is chest pain.
