We model the effect of a no-take reserve in a marine fishery management area, such as on a coral reef. Implicitly, eggs and larvae are mobile but adults are not; and there is open access fishing outside the reserve. A reserve is found to increase equilibrium catch if the prior ratio of stock to carrying capacity is less than a half, and the catch-maximising reserve proportion rises towards a ha...

Reserve requirements have traditionally been viewed as a key instrument of monetary policy. Indeed, textbook discussions of monetary policy typically center on the role of reserve requirements in determining the size of the money multiplier and the magnitude of bank credit expansion. In recent years, however, there has been a significant decline in the use of reserve requirements in the United ...

The Canterbury Plains have lost most of their pre-Polynesian indigenous vegetation, primarily forest and shrubland. One of the few remaining areas is the 2.3 ha Eyrewell Scientific Reserve which consists mostly of low känuka (Kunzea ericoides) forest and a small area of grassland. We assessed the Reserve vegetation using a combination of plots and transect surveys at different times of the year...

currently, laparoscopic cystectomy is the first-line therapy for ovarian benign cysts that are resistant to current therapies. there are different studies that point to ovarian reserve damage due to laparoscopic cystectomy. in this study, we evaluate the ovarian damage following laparoscopic cystectomy for non-endometriosis cysts using ultrasound and pathology findings. this is a prospective co...

in this article using comparative multi-purpose algorithm of pso, optimum capacity of new resources and their spinning storage is defined. spinning reserve requirements and optimized to maximize profit per unit is determined according to uncertainty. in fact by increasing the level of cost reservation, power supply increases but penalty of blackout decreases. in this paper in has been tried to ...

conservation of biodiversity in protected areas will be more challenging if local communities are heavily dependent on them for various products and subsistence needs. this study estimated forest dependency and identified factors influencing dependency for households living around kasane forest reserve (kfr). data collected from 237 households were analyzed using logistic regression model. logi...

background: the predictive roles of follicle stimulating hormone (fsh), anti-mullerian hormone (amh) and antral follicle count (afc) as ovarian reserve markers in women with different age groups are not established well. objective: this study compares the value of fsh, amh and afc at the time of     in vitro fertilization (ivf) treatment in different age groups. materials and methods: in this c...
