In this paper, I develop a regression-based system of labor productivity equations which account for capital-embodied technological change and I incorporate this system into IDLIFT, a structural, macroeconomic input-output model of the U.S. economy. Builders of regressionbased forecasting models have long had difficulty finding labor productivity equations that exhibit the “Solowian” property t...

Recent research in aquatic systems suggests that productivity–richness relationships change with spatial scale and that species turnover (i.e., spatial and temporal variation in species composition) plays an important role in generating this scale dependence. The generality of such scale dependence and the effects of variation in temporal scale remain unknown. We examined the extent to which th...

U.S. economy have been the subject of much study. Understanding these sources is important because labor productivity growth is the key to increasing our economic standard of living. For example, the difference between a productivity growth rate of 3% a year and one of 1.5% a year means the difference between doubling our standard of living in 23 years instead of 46 years! Theory suggests four ...

[1] A leading hypothesis relating productivity with climate variability in the California Current Ecosystem (CCE) describes an alternation between warmer, well‐stratified periods of low productivity and cooler periods of high productivity. This empirical relationship suggests that productivity will decline with global warming. Here, we explore the response of productivity to future climate chan...
