Weather adjusting economic data
This paper proposes and implements a statistical methodology for adjusting employment data for the effects of deviations in weather from seasonal norms. This is distinct from seasonal adjustment, which controls only for the normal variation in weather across the year.

This increased demand has led to the development of several ethanol production plants in Minnesota and the surrounding area. In 1996, it is estimat...
متن کاملCardiovascular and Thermal Strain during Manual Work in Cold Weather
In some occupations it is hard to protect the hands against the severe weather conditions in wintertime due to the requirement to maintain manual dexterity. Decrease in temperature of the hands increases risk of cold injury and deteriorates muscle function and manual dexterity, which in turn decreases productivity. A series of field and lab studies were performed to investigate cold stress and ...
متن کاملAmmonium Chloride and Ammonium Sulfate in Cattle Feedlot Finishing Rations
T WO levels of ammonium chloride or of ammonium sulfate were added to the rations of commercial feeder cattle. The rations were made isonitrogenous, essentially isocaloric and to contain the same level of calcium, phosphorus and salt. Total gains were essentially the same for all lots, varying only 15.6 lb (7.1 kg) over a 112 day feeding period. Feed conversion was increased only on the ration ...
متن کاملZinc, Copper, Manganese, and Selenium in Dairy Cattle Rations
The trace minerals zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium are components of a wide variety of enzymes and proteins that support metabolism, growth, production, and reproduction. Trace mineral supplements are added to dairy cattle rations to prevent mineral deficiencies, and supplementation has traditionally been provided in the form of inorganic salts. When these inorganic salts dissociate in th...
