 Various-purpose water reservoirs tend to accumulate pollution
By forming an ichtyocomplex consisting of meliorative fish it is possible to guarantee for a long period the necessary sanitary level of organic matter present in water and to prevent or substantially decrease the rate of pathogenic shellfish and higher plant growth.
Cultivation of meliorative fish and various hydrobionts in closed or partially closed systems of water supply is suggested as an original technological solution for removing waste products from water, which is more effective than biofiltration though it is compatible with it.
Development of this technology on the level of integration of local reservoir melioration projects allows to receive profit from the financial expenditure on the cultivation of meliorative fish comparable in percentage to the average increase in mass by the fish in one season.

 The Preconceptions of Economic Science 3
The two main canons of truth on which the science proceeded, and with which the inquiry is here concerned, were: (a) a hedonistic -associational psychology, and (b) an uncritical conviction that there is a meliorative trend in the course of events, apart from the conscious ends of the individual members of the community.
Therefore, given an indefeasible meliorative trend in events, man is but a mechanical intermediary in the sequence.
To return to the benign order of nature, or the meliorative trend, -- its passing, as an article of economic faith, was not due to criticism leveled against it by the later classical economists on grounds of its epistemological incongruity.

 TRINPsite: Book of Instruments: Conceptual and Evaluative Meaning  
A word may have the same unneutral evaluative meaning in the whole linguistic community, it may also have a meliorative meaning for some people and a pejorative one for others, while having the same conceptual meaning.
Thus the word god has a strong meliorative meaning for theists and a strong pejorative meaning for antitheists (and a nonmeliorative evaluative meaning for nontheists in general).
Words such as good, right, nice and pleasant, which are used to express a positive evaluation or emotion itself, are typically meliorative, whereas words such as bad, wrong, awful and unpleasant are typically pejorative.

 Simulation and Epistemic Competence   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Taken together, the capacities constituting our (descriptive or meliorative) epistemic competence will have certain characteristics making for their (joint) effectiveness in the pursuit of our epistemic goal.
For a capacity to have a place in such a model is a matter of the tendencies arising from its combination with select other capacties that we have or could have (given the base of capacities on which creatures like us build).
Our characterization is intended to apply both to our descriptive competence and to our meliorative competence, as it reflects the limits and general promise of both theory-based and simulation-based understanding.

One of them resides in the fact (i) that such concepts are likely to vary from one language to another, from one culture to another.

Another basic questions is whether such progress as has been achieved is entirely in human institutions.
If so, the next question to be considered is whether this institutional progress is quantitative or meliorative -- whether the institutional improvements are in the direction of more and more or in the direction of better and better.
But the question remains whether the more is also the better -- whether the progress is meliorative as well a quantitative.

 the theory and practice of extended schools - developments in England
This movement grew in significant part out of the need to extend educational and recreational opportunities to adults and young people in local communities.
In contrast, the recent interest in ‘full-service’ schooling has its origins in more remedial or meliorative concerns - and this is what has been largely translated into extended schools in England.
The focus has been on the provision of health and social care services.

 Professor Adam B. Ulam
Although he almost never spoke of his bereavement, the effect on him was profound, inducing in him a complex sense of physical vulnerability to the world combined with a certain emotional reticence, and at the same time a remarkable capacity (and need) for friendship.
Ulam had a deeply personal understanding of the horrors of which human beings are capable, and he had very little sympathy for meliorative schemes of any kind.
His friend and colleague of many years, Professor Samuel Beer, spoke of his "dark integrity," a phrase that resonated with many of his other friends.
