Equilibrium Land Values and Population Densities in an Urban Setting

A Geostatistical Modeling of Urban Land Values in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Most studies on urban land values focus on the determinants, using hedonic land price models with the consideration of the physical and socio-economic factors. This article employs geostatistical methods to analyze urban land values. Through a case study of Milwaukee, we set up semivariogram models and 3-D TIN surface models for urban land values, and explore anisotropy characteristics and the ...

TUBERCULIN SENSITIVITY IN AN URBAN POPULATION IN IRAN

Mantoux test using 2 IU of tuberculin prepared in Iran was performed on 6675 healthy persons randomly selected from an urban population (Shiraz) of Iran. In 3776 persons with no evidence of previous BCG vaccination the rate of positive reaction was less than 2% up to the age of 14, slightly more than 2% among those 15-19 years of age, but strikingly higher (45.5%) in older age groups (P<0.0...
