Oscillation of the per capita growth rate

Phylogenetic prediction of the maximum per capita rate of population growth.

The maximum per capita rate of population growth, r, is a central measure of population biology. However, researchers can only directly calculate r when adequate time series, life tables and similar datasets are available. We instead view r as an evolvable, synthetic life-history trait and use comparative phylogenetic approaches to predict r for poorly known species. Combining molecular phyloge...

Theory of Output Growth and of per Capita Output Growth: with or without Say's Law?

In a majority of the recent writings on economic growth, the term 'growth' without further qualifiers is used to mean growth of per capita output, with a striking linguistic change relative to a couple of decades ago. This linguistic change reflects the exclusive concentration on the determinants of the growth of per capita output, which characterises modern Endogenous Growth Theory. The implic...

Status of fish Consumption per capita of Tehran citizens

  Status of fish consumption was analyzed by completing the 295 questionnaires in all 22 metropolitan regions of Tehran from different households in 2008. After reviewing the descriptive and statistics analysis along with the non-parametric statistics, the fish consumption per capita was extracted through formulas. The average and mode of purchasing of each household occurs 11 times per year wi...

The Evolution of the Conditional Joint Distribution of Life Expectancy and per Capita Income Growth

In this paper we investigate the joint conditional distribution of health (life expectancy) and income growth, and its evolution over time. The conditional distributions of these two variables are obtained by applying non-parametric methods to a bivariate non-parametric regression system of equations. Analyzing the distributions of the non-parametric fitted values from these models we find stro...
