Dynamic environmental policy in developing countries with a dual economy
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/, 2002)We analyze a dynamic model of environmental policy in a stylized developing country (DC) with a dual economy. This DC’s economy is distorted in part because the government subsidizes the exports of the non-polluting ... -
Aspects of the theory of environmental policy in developing countries
(Taylor and Francis. The definitive copy can be found at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/default.asp., 2002)We study two issues relating to the conduct of environmental policy in developing countries (DCs). First, when faced with a self-financing constraint, should an environmental authority (EA) raise/lower pollution taxes ... -
On the extinction of species in jointly determined stochastic systems
(Taylor and Francis. A definitive copy can be found at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals, 2000)The sizable literature 0n extinction in economics has paid scant attention to the problem of constructing measures of species extinction. Moreover, this literature has not studied the question of species extinction in ... -
Human actions, the survival of keystone specise, and the resilience of ecological-economic systems
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/resourpol, 2002)Human (managerial) actions affect the survival probabilities of the keystone species of an ecological-economic system. What are the theoretical connections between human actions, keystone species survival, and the resilience ... -
Aspects of ecosystem persistence and the optimal conservation of species
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com, 2000)Although ecologists have long recognized the salience of persistence in determining the static and the dynamic behavior of ecological systems, it is only very recently that economists have begun to study this concept in ... -
An Interdisciplinary research agenda for the study of ecological-economic systems in the American West
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/resourpol, 2000)Increased public awareness off resource management issues and new attitudes toward resource conservation have led to great interest in the subject of the apposite use and management of natural and environmental resources ... -
On temporal controls and the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/resourpol, 2002)This paper provides a theoretical analysis of the effects of temporal controls on the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources such as fisheries and rangelands. First, we show that temporal resource management ... -
An Analysis of persistence, resilience, and the conservation of keystone species
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/, 2000)Ecologists and economists are increasingly in agreement that ecological and economic systems are linked and that these systems should be viewed as one system. However, because this recognition has been recent, there are ... -
The potential for misleading visual communication on food packaging
(2009-05-21)Consumers today are becoming more health conscious in light of America's growing obesity epidemic. Because of this, food companies often selectively highlight the healthfulness of their products, while carefully de-emphasizing ... -
Motive and responsibility as influences on graphic design outcomes
(2009-05)In the world of visual communication many message-making strategies are used to convey information to a defined audience. The ways in which these strategies are used can greatly impact the meaning and success of a graphic ... -

Architecture and urban design as influences on the communication of place and experience in graphic design
(2009-05)Most architects and urban designers are challenged to design schemas and structures to create a particular experience and sense of place. It is through the manipulation and design of actual three-dimensional spaces that ... -
From linearity towards chaos: Basic studies of relativistic backward-wave oscillators
(American Physical Society, 1992-09-14)Recent experimental studies have revealed for the first time some basic features of pulsed. relativistic (300-600 keY) backward-wave oscillators such as starting current, axial mode locking, and multifrequency operation. ... -
Experimental and numerical results on a millimeter-wave free electron laser amplifier
(Elsveier - Nuclear instruments and methods in physics research, 1993-07)Progress in studies of a millimeter-wave free electron laser amplifier based on a small period planar wiggler and a sheet electron beam is reported. Successful propagation of a 15 A sheet electron beam has been accomplished ... -
Grid portals for bioinformatics
(Grid Computing Environments (GCE), 2006)The explosive growth of biological and biomedical research requires a new set of software tools and a computational environment that includes high performance computing and largescale data management. These software ... -
GridTorrent framework: A High-performance data transfer and data sharing framework for scientific computing
(Grid Computing Environments (GCE), 2007)Large amount of data that is often stored in many thousands of files is created as part of today’s geographically distributed scientific computation and collaboration environments. Managing and transferring large volumes ... -
