Assessing Household Welfare in Response to Rising Food Prices in The Gambia

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how rising food prices affected household welfare in The Gambia using nationally representative data from the 2015/16 Integrated Household Survey (IHS‐3). The analysis reflects household consumption behavior and market conditions prevailing during that period and provides a structural benchmark for understanding ...

Drivers of Precision Agriculture Adoption in Italian Viticulture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the main drivers influencing the adoption of two types of precision farming technologies in the viticultural sector: Decision Support Systems (DSSs) and Variable Rate Technologies (VRTs). We apply a partial proportional odds model and find that socio‐demographic characteristics are not significant determinants of adoption ...

Improved seasonal predictions of the Western Pacific subtropical high by incorporating tropical Atlantic influences

Environmental Research Communications
The Western Pacific Subtropical High (WPSH) significantly influences East Asian weather and air pollution. Previous studies have indicated that tropical sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) are important indicators of WPSH intensity.

Volatility analysis and forecasting of vegetable prices using an ARMA‐GARCH model: An application of the CF filter and seasonal adjustment method to Korean green onions

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The vegetable market experiences significant price fluctuations due to the complex interplay of trend, cyclical, seasonal, and irregular factors. This study takes Korean green onions as an example and employs the Christiano–Fitzgerald filter and the CensusX‐13 seasonal adjustment methods to decompose its price into four components: trend ...

Foreign labor, peer‐networking and agricultural efficiency in the Italian dairy sector

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract While the presence of immigrants in the agricultural sector is widely acknowledged, the empirical evidence on its economic consequences is lacking, especially from a microeconomic perspective. Using the Farm Accountancy Data Network panel data for Italian dairy farms in the period 2008–2018, the present study investigates the relationship ...

Impacts of Temperature Measurements From Sea Turtles on Seasonal Prediction Around the Arafura Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
In this work, we added the assimilation of subsurface temperature measurements obtained from sea turtles around the Arafura Sea from June to October 2017 into an operational seasonal prediction system.

Decadal predictability of seasonal temperature distriubutions

Geophysical Research Letters
Climate predictions focus regularly on the predictability of single values, like means or extremes. While these information offer important insight into the quality of a prediction system, some stakeholders might be interested in the predictability of the full underlying distribution.

Seasonal Climate Prediction and Predictability of Atmospheric Circulation [PDF]

, 2012
While the detailed evolution of weather events may not be predictable beyond the span of a few days to two weeks due to the chaotic internal dynamics of atmospheric motion (Lorenz 1965), the statistical behavior of weather, that is the time or space averages, may be predictable over timescales of a season or longer due to the interaction between the ...
