This paper discusses the joint impact of catchment complexity in topography, tectonics, climate, landuse patterns, and lithology on suspended sediment yield (SSY, t km−2 year−1) Caucasus region using measurements from 244 gauging stations (GS). A Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) was used to reveal relationships between SSY explanatory variables. Despite possible significant uncertainties ...

plant density affects yield components and seed yield by influencing the changing vegetative growth and environmental resources. these effecting factors were studied in the spring of 2006 at ramin agricultural research and natural resources university, mollasani in northeast of ahwaz, using a randomized complete block design of a factorial layout with 4 replications. main factors were planting ...

The existence of common factors in international bond markets is an important cause for modelling different term structures of interest rates jointly. This paper investigates the common factors of US and UK treasury yields in the period of 1983 to 2012. A principal component analysis motivates the type of joint ATSM for modelling the yield curves of two distinct economies. In sum, two common fa...
