Assessing asset indices.
The use of asset indices in welfare analysis and poverty targeting is increasing, especially in cases in which data on expenditures are unavailable or hard to collect. We compare alternative approaches to welfare measurement. Our analysis shows that inferences about inequalities in education, health care use, fertility, and child mortality, as well as labor market outcomes, are quite robust to ...
متن کاملAssessing Heavy Metal Contamination in the Bottom Sediments of Shitalakhya River, Bangladesh; Using Pollution Evaluation Indices and Geo-spatial Analysis
The contamination of riverbed sediments by heavy metals has assumedserious problems due to their toxicity and accumulative behavior. The present studyinvestigated the concentrations of heavy metals from the bottom sediments of ShitalakhyaRiver to understand the level of contamination and their distribution. The averageconcentrations of heavy metals Al, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, As, Cu, Co, Cr, and Zn are ...

متن کاملZoning of Iranian Heavy Precipitation Regime
Aims & Backgrounds: One of the most important incidents of heavy precipitation is that each year there are many damages. Precipitation regimes help to identify the climate of each region. A heavy precipitation regime can help in identifying the climate of each region. Identification of these regimes is one of the most important prerequisites for environmental planning, especially water resource...
متن کاملTwenty-First-Century Changes in U.S. Regional Heavy Precipitation Frequency Based on Resolved Atmospheric Patterns
Precipitation-gauge observations and atmospheric reanalysis are combined to develop an analoguemethod for detecting heavy precipitation events based on prevailing large-scale atmospheric conditions. Combinations of atmospheric variables for circulation (geopotential height and wind vector) and moisture (surface specific humidity, column and up to 500-hPa precipitable water) are examined to cons...
