Year: 1986
Subjects: subject: Agricultural and Food Policy
subject: International Relations/Trade
subject: Denmark
subject: farm policy
subject: European Community
subject: U.S. trade

description: Denmark's membership in the European Community resulted in changes in nearly all sectors of its agricultural economy. Membership enabled Denmark to maintain tariff-free trade with other EC members, while EC export subsidies assisted in developing markets in non-EC countries. Farm size increased along with specialized farm production. The EC has encouraged production of peas, beans, rapeseed, and wheat resulting in greater self-sufficiency in feeds. Membership in the EC did not prevent a serious farm crisis due to high interest rates. The U.S. share of Danish agricultural imports declined from 17 percent to 8 percent since Denmark joined the EC, reflecting EC protection, greater Danish self-sufficiency, and fierce competition.

description: ,China is one of the world's leading producers of coarse grains. Prior to mid-1982, China was a major importer of coarse grains, but a dramatic increase in total grain and coarse grain production plus some structural changes in the economy led China to export substantial quantities of corn and sorghum. These dramatic changes in circumstances heightened interest in these crops. At the same time, China's statistical authorities published data which enabled analysts to estimate the annual area and output of corn, sorghum, millet, barley, and oats from 1949-83.

description: The United States has used several export promotion programs since the 1950's to boost agricultural exports. These programs have been designed to increase exports through export expansion activities such as sales credit and market development assistance, or through initiatives that lower export prices, such as export payments. The recent declines in U.S. agricultural exports have led to greater emphasis on these programs. Their success will depend greatly on the accompanying changes in domestic agricultural policies, changes in world market conditions, and competing exporter responses to U.S. agricultural policies.

description: Knowledge of the degree to which exchange rate changes are passed on to consumers in importing countries is important in determining how changes in exchange rates affect demand for U.S. agricultural exports. This report analyzes the responsiveness of Japanese wholesale prices to changes in the yen/U.S. dollar exchange rate from 1974 to 1984 for beef, corn, cotton, soybeans, and wheat. The degree to which U.S. exporters and Japanese importers pass on exchange rate changes (exchange rate pass-through) depended on the market structure characteristics for the particular commodity, and on whether the U.S. dollar was increasing or decreasing relative to the yen.
The Medicare and Medicaid Programs in Rural America: A Profile of Program Beneficiaries and Health Care Providers

subject: Medicaid
subject: health insurance
subject: rural health care

description: The Medicare and Medicaid programs cover a larger share of the population in nonmetropolitan than metropolitan areas because nonmetropolitan areas have relatively more elderly, disabled, and poor persons entitled to benefits. Nonmetropolitan health care providers are consequently more dependent on Medicare and Medicaid revenue than their metropolitan counterparts. The rapid growth of public expenditures on the Medicare and Medicaid programs has prompted legislative proposals to slow the growth of spending. The proposals are likely to have a greater impact on nonmetropolitan than metropolitan areas due to the geographic variations in program coverage and expenditures.

description: The decline in Japan's fish catch that started in 1989 can be attributed mainly to stock depletions due to overfishing in deep seas and offshore waters and polluting of water in inland and coastal waters. Animal wastes, nitrogen, phosphate fertilizer, and pesticides are the most serious sources of water pollution originating from the agricultural sector. Household wastes are another major source of water pollution affecting Japan's inland and coastal fish resources.
title: Subjectivity and the discourse of victimhood in the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission
Creators: name: Akinwumi, Akinbola E.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2008

description: This study contends that the South African truth and reconciliation process can be usefully understood in terms of discourse in general and subjectivity/subject-positioning in particular. The potential of these concepts to illuminate and characterize the national reconciliation aims of the truth and reconciliation commission (TRC) remains somewhat under-exploited in the literature. Positioned within a broad theoretical framework, a Foucauldian analytic was used to assess officially produced texts and talk that structured subjectivity in relation to the discourse of victimhood, the discursive resources drawn on by TRC commissioners and the subjectpositions formed. Through discursive repertoires the research looks at repertoires of victimhood, specifically in terms of nationhood and empathy, emerging from statements of commissioners of the TRC during the Human Rights Violations hearings, and examined the positioning effect they had on subjects. In relation to this I have attempted to shed light not only on the constructed nature of individuals’ positioning but also how they become subject to particular discourses and practices: how identities were shaped and capacities (among other things) constructed and mobilized in the light of victimhood and in the context of the TRC hearings. Data sources for the study include the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act of 1995, the Final Report of 2003 and transcripts of victim hearings conducted by the Commission.

Chemical turbulence equivalent to Nikolavskii turbulence

description: We find evidence that a certain class of reaction-diffusion systems can exhibit chemical turbulence equivalent to Nikolaevskii turbulence. The distinctive characteristic of this type of turbulence is that it results from the interaction of weakly stable long-wavelength modes and unstable short-wavelength modes. We indirectly study this class of reaction-diffusion systems by considering an extended complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equation that was previously derived from this class of reaction-diffusion systems. First, we show numerically that the power spectrum of this CGL equation in a particular regime is qualitatively quite similar to that of the Nikolaevskii equation. Then, we demonstrate that the Nikolaevskii equation can in fact be obtained from this CGL equation through a phase reduction procedure applied in the neighborhood of a codimension-two Turing--Benjamin-Feir point.

On the excitation of the infrared knots in the HH99 outflow

description: We present near infrared (IR) spectra (0.98--2.5 mu m) from the group of Herbig-Haro (HH) objects comprising HH99: a series of knots forming a bow, HH99B, and a separate knot, HH99A. Observations of H2, [Fe II] and [C I] are used to constrain shock model parameters and determine the origin of the emission. Previous work has shown that it is likely that the atomic and ionic emission arises in regions of higher ionization than the molecular emission. On the basis of observations, it has often been suggested that the [Fe II] and [C I] emission could arise, for example, at the apex of a bow shock, with the H2 emission produced in the wings. Accordingly, we have combined models of C-component and J-type shocks in order to reproduce the observed H2, [Fe II] and [C I] line spectra. We can account for the H2 emission towards the HH99B complex by means of J-type shocks with magnetic precursors. We derive shock velocities of about 30 km s-1 and ages of order 100 yr; the pre-shock gas has a density of approximately 10^4 cm-3 and the magnetic field is approximately 100 mu G. The J-type shocks required to reproduce the intensities of the observed [Fe II] and [C I] lines have velocities of 50 km s-1. It is necessary to assume that Fe has been previously eroded from grains, probably by the earlier passage of a C-type shock wave. Thus, our analysis supports the view that molecular outflows are episodic phenomena whose observed emission arises in shock waves.

description: The Massive and Distant Clusters of WISE Survey (MaDCoWS) provides a catalog of high-redshift ($0.7\lesssim z\lesssim 1.5$) infrared-selected galaxy clusters. However, the verification of the ionized intracluster medium, indicative of a collapsed and nearly virialized system, is made challenging by the high redshifts of the sample members. The main goal of this work is to test the capabilities of the Atacama Compact Array (ACA; also known as the Morita Array) Band 3 observations, centered at about 97.5 GHz, to provide robust validation of cluster detections via the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. Using a pilot sample that comprises ten MaDCoWS galaxy clusters, accessible to ACA and representative of the median sample richness, we infer the masses of the selected galaxy clusters and respective detection significance by means of a Bayesian analysis of the interferometric data. Our test of the "Verification with the ACA - Localization and Cluster Analysis" (VACA LoCA) program demonstrates that the ACA can robustly confirm the presence of the virialized intracluster medium in galaxy clusters previously identified in full-sky surveys. In particular, we obtain a significant detection of the SZ effect for seven out of the ten VACA LoCA clusters. We note that this result is independent of the assumed pressure profile. However, the limited angular dynamic range of the ACA in Band 3 alone, short observational integration times, and possible contamination from unresolved sources limit the detailed characterization of the cluster properties and the inference of the cluster masses within scales appropriate for the robust calibration of mass-richness scaling relations.

Subjects: subject: Social and Information Networks (cs.SI)

description: Many real-world relations can be represented by signed networks with positive links (e.g., friendships and trust) and negative links (e.g., foes and distrust). Link prediction helps advance tasks in social network analysis such as recommendation systems. Most existing work on link analysis focuses on unsigned social networks. The existence of negative links piques research interests in investigating whether properties and principles of signed networks differ from those of unsigned networks, and mandates dedicated efforts on link analysis for signed social networks. Recent findings suggest that properties of signed networks substantially differ from those of unsigned networks and negative links can be of significant help in signed link analysis in complementary ways. In this article, we center our discussion on a challenging problem of signed link analysis. Signed link analysis faces the problem of data sparsity, i.e. only a small percentage of signed links are given. This problem can even get worse when negative links are much sparser than positive ones as users are inclined more towards positive disposition rather than negative. We investigate how we can take advantage of other sources of information for signed link analysis. This research is mainly guided by three social science theories, Emotional Information, Diffusion of Innovations, and Individual Personality. Guided by these, we extract three categories of related features and leverage them for signed link analysis. Experiments show the significance of the features gleaned from social theories for signed link prediction and addressing the data sparsity challenge.

description: Hay is one of the most widely harvested U.S. crops. Nearly half of the farms in the United States harvested hay in 1992. Hay trails only corn and wheat in total acres harvested. Alfalfa is the chief type of hay harvested, accounting for 60 percent of the value of hay harvested in 1990-94. Nearly $800,000,000 was paid by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to growers in ad hoc disaster assistance for hay between 1988 and 1993. About 70 percent of the payments were made for the 1988 crop, when severe drought struck the Midwest. Crop insurance has been available for hay in a limited number of counties.
Trends in bird collisions at a teaching building (Buchanan) at UBC Vancouver
Creators: name: Nambiar, Raunaq
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Bird collisions on buildings are a major driver of avian mortality in north America. As a result of large glass surfaces used in building construction, and the proliferation of urban green spaces that (a) attract birds for food and shelter and (b) reflect off the glass, birds are unable to distinguish glass facades and collide with them. The campus of the University of British Columbia has been the site for multiple studies investigating trends in collisions owing to its mosaic of large glass buildings and green spaces. For four years, students in partnership with biologists monitored collisions occurring at the Buchanan complex, a teaching facility. Monitoring thrice a week, students recorded any collisions after being trained. All results were processed in R for visualization. Since 2021, collision frequencies have consistently dropped (-79.5% by 2024, from 49 to 10 collisions), though so has searcher effort. Collision frequencies across the four years have been localized to specific blocks and facades. Two facades have been retrofitted with Feather Friendly markers in 2022 and 2023, with noticeable declines in collisions (no statistical test conducted). As part of the university’s long-term vision to integrate natural systems and promote biodiversity on campus, addressing this issue is urgent. Buildings on campus are not required by the university’s building code to be retrofitted, leaving the decision to individual building management. As a proven technique, bird-friendly retrofits like Feather Friendly Markers and glass artwork, both for which have been employed on UBC’s campus, are strongly recommended, especially as results show that retrofits only need to target certain “problem” facades that consistently record collisions. It is also strongly recommended to incorporate citizen science such as student monitoring programs to help keep an up-to-date record of collision statistics across multiple campus buildings. Disclaimer: “UBC SEEDS provides students with the opportunity to share the findings of their studies, as well as their opinions, conclusions and recommendations with the UBC community.

Similarities and differences to the quenched case are discussed and the temperature dependence as well as their short distance behavior are analyzed. The asymptotic large distance behavior of the free energy is used to define the non-perturbatively renormalized Polyakov loop which is well behaved in the continuum limit.

description: The next generation of High Energy Physics experiments requires a GRID approach to a distributed computing system and the associated data management: the key concept is the "Virtual Organisation" (VO), a group of geographycally distributed users with a common goal and the will to share their resources. A similar approach is being applied to a group of Hospitals which joined the GPCALMA project (Grid Platform for Computer Assisted Library for MAmmography), which will allow common screening programs for early diagnosis of breast and, in the future, lung cancer. HEP techniques come into play in writing the application code, which makes use of neural networks for the image analysis and shows performances similar to radiologists in the diagnosis. GRID technologies will allow remote image analysis and interactive online diagnosis, with a relevant reduction of the delays presently associated to screening programs.

description: High-value agricultural products such as processed foods are becoming increasingly important in U.S. production and trade. Efficiency gains in primary agriculture are transferred to the processed-food sector in the form of cheaper inputs. In turn, efficiency gains in processed-food sectors are transferred, in part, back to primary agriculture by increasing the derived demand and, thus, mitigating commodity price declines. Efficiency gains are relatively more important in primary agriculture than in food processing. Policies that encourage productivity growth and lower production costs will tend to increase the competitiveness of both sectors. Since almost all of the productivity growth in primary agriculture and food processing are passed along in lower prices, consumers are the ultimate beneficiaries.

description: Between 1988 and 1993, Japanese fish and shellfish catch dropped by one-third, falling to its lowest level in 25 years. Domestic prices sharply increased, but per capita fish and shellfish consumption is higher than that of all meats. To meet rising demand, Japan became the world's largest importer, absorbing one-third of global fish and shellfish imports, and the United States became its largest supplier. The outlook for exporting to Japan is excellent because the U.S. catch contains most of the species prized highly in the Japanese market, such as salmon, crabs, and Alaskan pollack.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

The influence of density stratification and multiple nonlinearities on solar torsional oscillations

description: Analyses of recent helioseismic data have produced ample evidence for substantial dynamical variation of the differential rotation within the solar convection zone. Given the inevitable difficulties in resolving the precise nature of variations at deeper layers, much effort has recently gone into determining theoretically the expected modes of behaviour, using nonlinear dynamo models. Two important limitations of these models are that they have so far included only one form of nonlinearity, and as yet they have not taken into account the density stratification in the solar convection zone. Here we address both of these issues by studying the effects of including density stratification, as well as including an alpha--quenching nonlinearity in addition to the previously studied effects of the Lorentz force on the differential rotation. We find that observationally important features found in the earlier uniform density models remain qualitatively unchanged, although there are quantitative differences. This is important as it provides more realistic theoretical predictions to be compared with and guide observations, especially in the deeper regions where the uncertainties in the inversions are larger. However the presence of an effective alpha-quenching nonlinearity significantly reduces the amplitudes of the oscillations.

description: Debate for the 1995 farm legislation ranged from minor reform of existing programs to fundamental reform of U.S. agricultural policy. This report discusses some issues addressed, including who benefits from commodity programs, whether the benefits are capitalized into land values, the costs of agricultural programs, how well programs have worked, who bears the risk in the agricultural sector, and whether alternative programs might work to meet farmers' needs.

description: Supply and demand models are an important part of economic theory and these models underlie much of the applied work done by economists. To answer questions about the effects of specific shocks to a sector, economists need estimates of the relevant supply and demand elasticities. To support the applied analysis of the Animal Products Branch, this bibliography of recent empirical estimates of U.S. demand and supply elasticities for livestock, meat, and poultry was compiled. Each reference is followed by a brief discussion of the techniques and data used and (usually) tables showing the estimated elasticities.

description: I analyse the projected density distribution of member stars over a wide area surrounding 18 Galactic globular clusters using the photometric and astrometric information provided by the second data release of the Gaia mission. A 5D mixture modelling technique has been employed to optimally isolate the signal of the cluster stellar population from the contamination of the Galactic field, taking advantage of its different distribution in the space formed by colours, magnitudes, parallaxes and proper motions. In 7 clusters I detect collimated overdensities at a >3 sigma level above the background density extending well beyond the cluster tidal radius, consistent with the distortion expected as a result of the tidal interaction with the Milky Way potential. In five of these clusters (NGC288, NGC2298, NGC5139, NGC6341 and NGC7099) spectacular tidal tails extend up to the border of the analysed field of view at 5 degrees from the centre. At large distances from the cluster centre, the orientation of the detected overdensities appears to be systematically aligned with the cluster orbital path, in agreement with the predictions of N-body simulations. The fraction of stars contained in the tidal tails of these clusters is also used to determine the first observational estimate of their present-day destruction rates.

description: Solar farms are increasing in Britain, but their biodiversity impact is under-studied. We explored bird populations on six solar farms in the East Anglian Fens, using an adapted Breeding Bird Survey across 23.2 km of transects, recording birds seen or heard within 100 m of transects (4 ha survey area). Solar farms were divided by management styles: simple habitat solar (10 transects) and mixed habitat solar (13 transects). We also surveyed 15.2 km of transects in arable farmland. Solar farms contained a greater bird abundance and species richness than arable farmland, but this varied with solar farm management (predicted abundance ±SE per 4 ha: solar with mixed habitat = 31.5 ± 6.4, solar with simple habitat = 17 ± 4.9, arable = 11.9 ± 2.6; predicted species richness ± SE per 4 ha: solar with mixed habitat = 13.5 ± 1.1, solar with simple habitat = 5.3 ± 0.6, arable = 5.5 ± 0.6). Our findings suggest that solar farms can benefit biodiversity in arable-dominated landscapes, especially when managed with biodiversity in mind.
Leading power SCET analysis of $e^+ e^- \to J/ψg g$

description: Recently, Belle and BaBar Collaborations observed surprising suppression in the endpoint $J/ψ$ spectrum, which stimulates us to examine the endpoint behaviors of the $e^+ e^- \to J/ψgg$ production. We calculate the $J/ψ$ momentum and angular distributions for this process within the framework of the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). The decreasing spectrum in the endpoint region is obtained by summing the Sudakov logarithms. We also find a large discrepancy between the NRQCD and SCET spectrum in the endpoint region even before the large logarithms are summed, which is probably due to the fact that only the scalar structure of the two-gluon system is picked out in the leading power expansion. A comparison with the process $Υ\to γgg$ is made.

description: This report provides long-term projections for international supply, demand, and trade for major agricultural commodities to 2005. It is intended as a companion report to Long-term Agricultural Projections to 2005 (WAOB-96-1), by providing the foreign country detail supporting those projections. Projections of strong global economic growth, particularly in developing countries, combined with freer foreign markets and the emergence of China as a major bulk commodity market, support strong projected gains in U.S. farm exports. The value of total U.S. agricultural exports is projected to rise from $54.2 billion in FY 1995 to nearly $80 billion in 2005. The projections are a conditional scenario, assuming the continuation of 1990 U.S. farm legislation, no shocks, average weather, and specific macroeconomic and foreign country policy assumptions. The projections were completed based on information available as of January 1996 and reflect a composite of model results and analyst judgment.

The X-ray, optical and radio evolution of the GRB030329 afterglow and the associated SN2003dh

description: Extensive X-ray, optical and radio observations of the bright afterglow of the Gamma Ray Burst GRB 030329 are used to construct the multi-frequency evolution of the event. The data are fitted using the standard fireball shock model to provide estimates of the initial energy, epsilon = 6.8 x 10^52 ergs sr^-1, the density of the ambient medium, n_0 = 1 cm^-3, the electron and magnetic energy density fractions, epsilon_e = 0.24 & epsilon_B = 0.0017, the power law index of the relativistic electron spectrum, p = 2.25, and the opening angle of the jet, theta_j = 3 degrees. Deviations from the standard model seen in the optical and radio are most likely attributable to the concurrent hypernova SN2003dh. Peaks at 0.23 and 1.7 days in the R-band are much brighter than expected from a standard SN, and there is a large radio excess over the expected afterglow flux for t>2 days. No deviation from the best-fit afterglow model is seen in the X-ray decline, indicating that the excess optical and radio flux from 1-5 days arises from a later injection of slower electrons by the central engine.

description: Increasing environmental awareness is pushing the design of electric motors to favor none rare-earth solutions (i.e., without permanent magnets), and one such example is the SyncRM 2 (or concentrated-coiled SRM2) being proposed for the electric hybrid automobile Toyota Yaris. Following on an already established line of research on this topic, this article proposes a new design that re-assigns most of the magnetic material in the stator to the rotor — resulting in the Dual-sided SyncRM (a variant of the SRM2). The detrimental effect (caused by the extra gap) of slightly reducing the aligned inductance is overwhelmingly outweighed by the beneficial effect of drastically reducing the unaligned inductance. Extensive back-to-back FEMM analysis was conducted, where the recomputed SRM2 matches previous research, providing confidence to the favorable predictions of the Dual-sided SyncRM. Both performances are compared, with the venue being available for download on an open-source database. A realistic photo-rendered three-dimensional model is displayed and also available. An important outcome is the Dual-sided SyncRM torque (and power) increased by 29% (with respect to the SRM2), achieving a saliency ratio of 10 and an efficiency boost to 91% (at the rated operational speed of 1200rpm).CAD link: https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/_CAD_Design_of_the_Novel_Dual-sided_Synchronous_Reluctance_Motor/24634062FEMM data link: https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/_FEMM_Magnetic_Modeling_of_the_Dual-sided_Synchronous_Reluctance_Motor/24634068Applied Physics Research Journal link: https://ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/apr/article/view/0/49825-------------------------------------------------------------------------For more public data, please visit my Figshare profile: https://figshare.com/authors/Luis_Teia/10811244
