Abstract:: Although the limitations of consumer surplus have become widely known, there exists a lack of studies which present in a coherent framework recent developments in estimating Hicksian welfare measures. This study attempts to fill partially this gap by analyzing some theoretical and empirical aspects in the estimation of exact welfare...

Abstract:: In this paper, we propose an improved version of the min-sum algorithm for low density parity check (LDPC) code decoding, which we call “adaptive normalized BP-based” algorithm. Our decoder provides a compromise solution between the belief propagation and the min-sum algorithms by adding an exponent offset to each variable node’s...

Abstract:: Most of the research on wave energy conversion has been focused on the characterization of the dynamic behavior of arrays of uncontrolled WECs in specific configurations, in order to quantify changes in the wave fields and absorbed power without active control. To maximize wave energy conversion, however, it is necessary...

Abstract:: Ocean wave energy has the potential to significantly contribute to sustainable power generation in coastal regions. Much of the research effort has gone into developing time domain state space models of point absorber wave energy converters (WECs) and subsequently into model-based optimal control to efficiently harvest the maximum possible amount...

Abstract:: We evaluated the effectiveness of using hatchery coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch presmolts to rebuild wild populations in Oregon coastal streams. Juvenile and adult populations were monitored in 15 stocked and 15 unstacked streams from summer 1980 until summer 1985. During the summers following the planting of presmolts, the number of...

Abstract:: Several approaches for travel time data collection based on the reading of time-stamped media access control addresses from Bluetooth-enabled devices have been reported in the literature recently. This new approach offers a number of advantages over more conventional methods, including lower costs of hardware and software, the volume of data...

Abstract:: A magnetotelluric (MT)transect has been obtained near latitude 45øN from the active Juan de Fuca Spreading center, across the subduction zone and Cascades volcanic arc, and into the back arc Deschutes Basin region. This paper presents the MT data set and describes its major characteristics as they pertain to the...
