The Effects of Crop Insurance Subsidies and Sodsaver on Land-Use Change
(2020-03-12)
It is well known that insurance market information asymmetry can cause socially excessive cropping of yield-risky land. We show that crop insurance subsidies can cause the same problem absent information failures. Using ...
Effects of elevated tropospheric ozone and fluctuating moisture supply on loblolly pine seedlings inoculated with root infecting ophiostomatoid fungi
(2020-04-01)
Southern Pine Decline is a cause of premature mortality of Pinus species in the Southeastern United States. While the pathogenicity of ophiostomatoid fungi, associated with declining Pinus species, has been observed both ...
Effects of human activity on the habitat utilization of Himalayan marmot (Marmota himalayana) in Zoige wetland
(2021-07-06)
Human activity is increasingly and persistently disturbing nature and wild animals. Affected wildlife adopts multiple strategies to deal with different human influences. To explore the effect of human activity on habitat ...
Effects of inbreeding in Mimulus guttatus on tolerance to herbivory in natural environments
(2019-12-19)
Inbreeding, which is common in plants, may increase the vulnerability of. populations to natural enemies. Similarly, natural enemies may increase the expression of inbreeding depression in their hosts, resulting in altered ...
Effects of Landscape Characteristics on Water Quality and Fish Assemblages in the Tallapoosa River Basin, Alabama
(2022-10-14)
To maintain and improve water quality, there is an increasing need to understand
relationships between current land-use practices (e.g., agriculture, forested/silviculture,
and urban) and stream ecosystems. In this study, ...
Effects of tropospheric ozone pollution on net primary productivity and carbon storage in terrestrial ecosystems of China
(2022-12-05)
We investigated the potential effects of elevated ozone (O-3) along with climate variability, increasing CO2, and land use change on net primary productivity (NPP) and carbon storage in China's terrestrial ecosystems for ...
An efficient auxiliary variable method for quantification of spin density, R2* decay and field inhomogeneity maps in magnetic resonance imaging
(2015-04-07)
Quantification of spin density, $R_2^*$ decay and off-resonance frequency maps is very important in some applications of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To reconstruct these parameter maps, a time-varying model such as ...
Efficient evaluation of analytic Fukui functions
(2021-01-26)
An efficient method for the analytic evaluation of Fukui functions is proposed. Working equations
are derived and numerical results are used to validate the method on medium size set of molecules.
In addition to the ...
