ABSTRACT Natural radionuclides in cement and gypsum production materials pose significant risks of occupational radiation exposure that are not well documented in Iraqi Kurdistan. This study quantifies alpha and gamma radiation levels from naturally occurring radioactive materials, specifically 222Rn, 238U, 232Th, and 40K, in cement and gypsum samples ...

How Important Are Sectoral Shocks in Australia?
ABSTRACT We examine the role of sectoral shocks in driving aggregate fluctuations for the Australian economy between 1994 and 2023, comparing the pre‐COVID and COVID periods. Using both statistical and structural factor models for disaggregated industrial production, we find that sectoral shocks accounted for a substantial portion of aggregate ...

Forces Behind South Australia's Unusual Structural Changes Since 1840
ABSTRACT The agricultural sector's share of GDP in growing economies typically declines but, for a century from the early 1850s, Australia's did not. That trend is most evident for the former colony and now State of South Australia (SA). Moreover, that share for SA has been almost flat since 1980 as well, along with the agricultural sector's share of ...
