Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads
The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Some effective environmental factors on beech scale (Cryptococcus fagisuga lindinger) density on oriental beech (Fagus orientalis lipsky) (Case study: Kheyrud Forest) [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2017 In order to study the beech scale and some of the effective environmental factors on beech scale density on eastern beech trees, after field inspection, 10 hectare of infected beech stands were specified in low-, mid- and high lands of Kheyrud forest. At

Vpliv izbranih okoljskih dejavnikov na dinamiko vlaženja bukovine
Acta Silvae et Ligni, 2016 Beech is one of the most important tree species in Slovenia. Unfortunately, there is much more beech wood incremented annually than consumed. Thus, it is of great importance to develop new applications for use of beech wood. One of the possible solutions

Rapid non‐destructive assessment of leaf water status with low‐cost transmittance meters
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Tools for more efficiently managing agricultural production and the use of limited water resources are required in the context of a growing global population, while the increasing threat posed by droughts and wildfires necessitates improved methods for risk assessment, forecasting and early warning. Quantifying leaf water content is central to
