Creator:: Cross, Robin M.
Abstract:: Agricultural revenues, the product of stochastic prices and yields, lead to markets which are incomplete, thereby entreating and complicating economic inquiry. The following three essays explore the incomplete nature of agricultural markets and consider the implications of incompleteness for a range of policy questions and economic tools. The first essay,...

Creator:: Mitchell, Stephen Richard
Abstract:: Two forest management objectives being debated in the context of federally managed landscapes in the US Pacific Northwest involve a perceived trade-off between fire restoration and C sequestration. The former strategy would reduce fuel (and therefore C) that has accumulated through a century of fire suppression and exclusion that has...

Creator:: Vas-Umnuay, Paravee
Abstract:: Concentrically arranged multiple-tube reactors with different dimensions were built for synthesizing nano-sized silicon nitride powder via the ammonolysis of SiO vapor. The reaction was operated at temperatures ranging from 1350 to 1400°C and pressure slightly above atmospheric pressure. Silicon monoxide (SiO) vapor was generated by charging argon gas through a...

Creator:: Oprisan, Paul
Abstract:: The asymmetric nature of bit errors in several practical applications provides grounds for efficient error control techniques. The Z-channel model and special classes of codes like asymmetric error detection codes and t-asymmetric error correcting/d-asymmetric error detecting codes can be successfully used in ARQ protocols for feedback error control enhancement. This...

Creator:: Sierra, Carlos Alberto
Abstract:: Ecosystems are highly heterogeneous systems subjected to important levels of environmental variability; however, it is common in terrestrial biogeochemical models to assume homogeneous properties of the elements of the system or constant environmental conditions. For some processes, heterogeneity in these models is treated very simplistically, but there is not much...

Creator:: Fetter Filho, Antonio F. H.
Abstract:: The local and remote sources of variability of the South Atlantic Ocean are investigated using a set of numerical experiments and satellite data. A global, eddy-permitting, numerical simulation is analyzed to investigate the dynamical links between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Malvinas Current (MC). The model results indicate...
