Inverse relations between amounts of air pollution and orographic precipitation.
Particulate air pollution has been suggested as the cause of the recently observed decreasing trends of 10 to 25% in the ratio between hilly and upwind lowland precipitation, downwind of urban and industrial areas. We quantified the dependence of this ratio of the orographic-precipitation enhancement factor on the amounts of aerosols composed mostly of pollution in the free troposphere, based o...
متن کاملAntonymy and Contrast Relations
In this paper we report on experiments to determine if antonymy is a good predictor of contrast, using 124 texts from the British National Corpus and the antonymy relations for adjectives recognized by WordNet. Further, we considered whether antonyms are key arguments in the inferences that license contrast. We looked at the frequency of both indirect and direct antonym pairs in contrastive sen...
متن کاملPoset-valued preference relations
In decision processes some objects may not be comparable with respect to a preference relation, especially if several criteria are considered. To provide a model for such cases a poset valued preference relation is introduced as a fuzzy relation on a set of alternatives with membership values in a partially ordered set. We analyze its properties and prove the representation theorem in terms of ...
متن کاملPrioritising Preference Relations
We describe some ideas and results about the following problem: Given a set, a family of \preference relations" on the set, and a \priority" among those preference relations, which elements of the set are best? That is, which elements are most preferred by a consensus of the preference relations which takes account of their relative priority? The problem is posed in a deliberately general way, ...
متن کاملAnchored preference relations
This paper explores the implications of a simple and intuitive restriction on reference dependent preferences assuming the status quo serves as the reference point. The condition imposed rules out situations in which a decision maker has a choice between two prospects, selects one, subsequently changes her mind and selects the other – even if the change is costly. It is shown that a surprising ...
