Investigating the Differences in CO2 Emission in the Transport Sector Across Iranian Provinces: Evidence from a Quantile Regression Model
Improving the quality of the environment is a desired goal of any economy. In this regard, given the important role of the transportation sector in the emission of pollutants, policy makers should focus on identifying the factors affecting CO2 emissions in the transport sector. This study examines the factors affecting the differences of CO2 emissions in the transportation sector in Iranian pro...
متن کاملHierarchical analysis of species distributions and abundance across environmental gradients.
Abiotic and biotic processes operate at multiple spatial and temporal scales to shape many ecological processes, including species distributions and demography. Current debate about the relative roles of niche-based and stochastic processes in shaping species distributions and community composition reflects, in part, the challenge of understanding how these processes interact across scales. Tra...
متن کاملAmphibian species richness across environmental gradients
Large-scale field patterns are a fundamental source of inferences on processes responsible for variation in species richness among habitats. We examined species richness of larval amphibian communities in 37 ponds over seven years on the Univ. of Michigan’s E. S. George Reserve. Ordination of the community incidence matrix indicated a strong major axis of variation in species associations that ...
متن کاملEXTREMAL QUANTILE REGRESSION 3 quantile regression
Quantile regression is an important tool for estimation of conditional quantiles of a response Y given a vector of covariates X. It can be used to measure the effect of covariates not only in the center of a distribution, but also in the upper and lower tails. This paper develops a theory of quantile regression in the tails. Specifically , it obtains the large sample properties of extremal (ext...
متن کاملNuclear DNA content variation among Central European Koeleria taxa.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Polyploidization plays an important role in the evolution of many plant genera, including Koeleria. The knowledge of ploidy, chromosome number and genome size may enable correct taxonomic treatment when other features are insufficient as in Koeleria. Therefore, these characteristics and their variability were determined for populations of six central European Koeleria taxa. ...
