This paper identifies factors that influence the demand for a black bass fishing trip taken in the Southeastern U.S. using a double hurdle negative binomial count data model. The probability of fishing for a black bass is estimated in the first stage and the trip frequency for fishing a black bass is estimated in the second stage given that the individual has a positive probability towards unde...

INTRODUCTION The sharpened Romberg test (SRT) is commonly used by diving and hyperbaric physicians as an indicator of neurological decompression illness (DCI). People who spend a prolonged time on a boat at sea experience impairment in their balance on returning to shore, a condition known as mal de debarquement ('sea legs'). This conditioning of the vestibular system to the rocking motion of a...

The paper focuses on transportation trip generation models based on mixed-use and transport infrastructure near the site. Transport trip generation models are considered with an aim to improve the accuracy of transport generated trips. Information systems are reviewed, and “smart growth” criteria that could affect the accuracy of trip generation models are also identified. Experimental results ...
