Dollars for Drops: Abatement Cost of Water for Irrigation in the Colorado River Basin
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 278-293, March 2026.ABSTRACT The Colorado River is a lifeline for more than 40 million people in the western United States. However, with climate change diminishing snowpacks in the Rocky Mountains and increasing demands from agriculture and urban areas, the river's flow has become insufficient to meet all the competing needs.

The impact of soil erosion on corn yields: A spatial regression analysis
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on corn (Zea mays L.) yield across counties in the US Midwest. Using a novel county‐level panel dataset that includes information on water erosion and corn yield, we analyze the direct and spatial spillover effects of erosion using a spatial regression framework.

Accurate Runout Measurement for HDD Spinning Motors and Disks
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2010 As hard disk drive (HDD) areal density increases, its track width becomes smaller and smaller and so is non-repeatable runout. HDD industry needs more accurate and better resolution runout measurements of spinning spindle motors and media platters in ...

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 3, March 2026.The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT Previous studies have demonstrated that membership in farmer groups (MFGs) promotes the adoption of improved agricultural technologies, increases farm incomes, and alleviates poverty. However, these studies often neglect the variability in treatment effects, concentrating primarily on average treatment effects.
