Good Dispersion, Bad Dispersion

Review of Economic Studies
Abstract We document that most dispersion in marginal revenue products of inputs occurs across plants within firms rather than between firms. This is commonly thought to reflect misallocation: dispersion is “bad”. However, we show that eliminating frictions hampering internal capital markets in a multi-plant firm model may in fact ...

Intercontinental Dispersal III

1952
So monotonous is the behavior of plants in dispersal that its students can hardly avoid in the end a feeling of boredom. The same features constantly recur upon the map; the same tracks repeat themselves without end. Soon a point is reached, where the budding phytogeographer unconsciously begins to inquire, why there is seemingly no end to the same ...

Non-Aqueous Dispersions

Journal of Elastoplastics, 1971
Polyvinyl chloride is the most common polymer for organosols Sec ond to PVC are the acrylics Polymer particles of colloidal size required for microgel formation can be formed by standard emulsion polymerization techniques. Effect of the solvent on film formation and the coating is important.

Pollen and seed dispersal among dispersed plants

Biological Reviews, 2005
ABSTRACTThe ecological significance of spacing among plants in contributing to the maintenance of species richness, particularly in tropical forests, has received considerable attention that has largely focussed on distance ‐ and density‐dependent seed and seedling mortality.

Nonlinear Dispersive Waves

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1965
A general theory is developed for studying changes of a wave train governed by non-linear partial differential equations. The technique is to average over the local oscillations in the medium and so obtain differential equations for the variations in amplitude, wave number, etc.
