We investigate the impact of a large economic shock on mortality. We find that counties more exposed to a plausibly exogenous trade liberalization exhibit relative increases in drug overdoses and suicide, specifically among whites. We show that these results are not driven by pre-existing trends in mortality rates, that the estimated relationships are robust to controls for state-level legislat...

In data, bilateral trade is strongly correlated with bilateral GDP comovement. This paper examines whether trade in intermediate inputs explains this empirical fact. I integrate input trade into a many country, multi-sector model and calibrate the model to data on bilateral input-output linkages. With estimated productivity shocks, the model generates an aggregate trade-comovement correlation 3...

Accurate detection of filarial parasites in humans is essential for the implementation and evaluation of mass drug administration programs to control onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis. Determining the infection levels in vector populations is also important for assessing transmission, deciding when drug treatments may be terminated and for monitoring recrudescence. Immunological methods t...

The effects of the 1997–1999 El Niño/La Nina event on new primary production are examined using a physiologically based algorithm of nitrate uptake by phytoplankton for the Monterey Bay, California region. Primary inputs for the model come from temperature and phytoplankton biomass (chlorophyll) using both moorings and satellite observations, providing estimates of new production with higher sp...

In this paper, we give estimates of the minimal L distance between the distribution of the normalized partial sum and the limiting Gaussian distribution for stationary sequences satisfying projective criteria in the style of Gordin or weak dependence conditions. Résumé. Dans cet article, nous donnons des majorations de la distance minimale L entre la loi de la somme normalisée et sa loi limite ...
