The objective of this dissertation is to examine multi-product firms' productivity and export behavior. More specifically, this dissertation estimates productivity of firms that produce and sell multiple products, and the role of productivity in such firms' export behavior. In doing so, this dissertation develops a firm-level gravity approach to test...

Remote sensing of variables necessary to estimate net primary
production of vegetation over large temporal and spatial scales has been a
goal of climate change research. This thesis consists of two studies that
address the reliability of satellite and airborne sensors to quantify a basic
component of all production models,...

Work-study guidelines were developed using field data from thinning sites in the Oregon Cascade Range. Regression of detailed time study and shift-level data predicted harvesting production rates. Statistical analysis showed the relative difference in the discriminating power between shift-level studies versus detailed time studies. Indicator variables tested if there were...
To improve the present state of Forestry and the
condition of forest workers is an important goal to be achieved in developing countries. With the growth of population, demand for wood products is increasing tremendously. Prices have gone up manyfold. One way to meet this demand is to increase productivity...
