Common wave behavior for mergers and acquisitions in OECD countries? a unique analysis using new Markov switching panel model approach [PDF]
This paper investigates whether or not there is co-waved merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in 26 OECD countries. We apply the Markov Switching model to panel data (MSP hereafter), an approach which has not previously been attempted.

Markov or not Markov - this should be a question [PDF]
Although it is well known that Markov process theory, frequently applied in the literature on income convergence, imposes some very restrictive assumptions upon the data generating process, these assumptions have generally been taken for granted so far ...

Reduced size of larvae and small fish linked to warming and reduced prey density
Ecography, EarlyView.Body size is an integrative trait that has declined across many ecological assemblages in the last decades. Changes in body size of early life stages and small‐bodied fish are driven by complex interactions between size‐dependent mortality, and temperature‐ and food‐dependent growth, and can have consequences for recruitment to the adult stock and food

Spatial variation in liana effects on host‐tree allometry and biomass in an intact tropical forest
Ecography, EarlyView.Lianas are increasing in abundance across the tropics, yet local spatial variation in their effects on host‐tree allometry and biomass, and the drivers of this variation within forests, remain poorly understood. Using field inventory, drone photogrammetry, and terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) across a 50‐ha plot on Barro Colorado Island, Panama, we ...

A Markov-switching vector equilibrium correction model of the UK labour market [PDF]
There is a wide literature on the dynamic adjustment of employment and its relationship with the business cycle. Our aim is to propose a statistical model that offers a congruent representation of post-war UK labour market.
