Separation of streamflow components into quickflow and baseflow is usually carried out in two main ways: hydrograph recession analysis and tracer-based methods. In this paper, it is proposed to use a fully coupled surface and subsurface flow and transport model to gain a better understanding of the relationship between physical catchment characteristics (e.g. aquifer hydraulic conductivity) and...

The main factor of the current global recession is a non-economic nature, i.e. cause Covid-19 pandemic. For this reason, we cannot compare economic situation with some earlier crises. employment decreasing basic feature every crisis that has gripped world. emergence pandemic led to closure large number countries, can freely say almost entire world, which resulted in an increase unemployment rat...

This paper analyzes how human capital and economic uncertainty affect capital structure and managerial compensation. We model a competitive industry where wealth constrained managers provide human capital that can be transferred across firms, and where equityholders give managers access to the physical assets of the firm. Equityholders and managers bargain for the firm’s stochastic free cash fl...

The annual numbers of road deaths in Australia 1950-2007 are shown in Figure 11.. Fatal crash trends since 1950 fall into four distinct phases. In the first phase covering the 1950s and 1960s, national fatality levels steadily increased to reach a peak of almost 4,000 deaths in 1970. The second phase covered the 1970s and saw fatality numbers remain at nearpeak levels of around 3,500 throughout...

PURPOSE To suggest a surgical normogram for lateral rectus recession in exotropia associated with unilateral or bilateral superior oblique muscle palsy (SOP). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 71 patients with exotropia who were successfully corrected over one year. Each patient had undergone unilateral or bilateral rectus recession associated with uni- or bilateral inferior o...

Whether a recession is driven by large job losses or weak hiring will grea...

Since the start of the recession in December 2007, the U.S. unemployment rate has risen more than four percentage points. Similar sharp increases in unemployment have occurred in other severe recessions, such as those in 1973-75 and 1981-82. In the aftermath of those severe recessions, the economy rapidly recovered and unemployment quickly declined. Will unemployment behave similarly following ...

No one seriously concerned with political strategies in the current situation can now afford to ignore the "swing to the Right". We may not yet understand its extent and its limits, its specific character, its causes and effects. We have so far—with one or two notable exceptions—failed to find strategies capable of mobilizing social forces strong enough in depth to turn its flank. But the tende...

The recent recession in the US saw an unusually large and persistent decline in output, low inflation and deflation, significant house price declines, and short term interest rates near zero. Much discussion of this episode has centered around financial markets and the high leverage positions at the onset of the recession. In this paper, we analyze the role of leverage in determining the proper...

ƒ Typically, fertility has a pro-cyclical relationship with economic growth. Recessions often lead to a temporary decline in period fertility levels one or two years later, partly reflecting a postponement of childbearing that is often later compensated during the period of improved economic conditions. ƒ Theories suggesting a counter-cyclical relationship between economic trends and fertility ...
