This study examines macroeconomic risk factors to investigate how they affect working capital management (WCM) and, ultimately, firm performance. Additionally, we examine the effect of credit default swaps (CDSs) as a countermeasure for WCM in presence volatile factors. In doing so, use firm-level data from United States, Kingdom, Germany, and China between 2006 2020. The two-step system genera...

The release of high-spatiotemporal-resolution Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data to the public has provided an unprecedented opportunity map soil moisture at watershed and agricultural field scales. However, existing retrieval algorithms fail derive with expected accuracy. Insufficient understanding effects vegetation parameters on backscatters is important reason for this failure. ...

The rapid growth of the Internet and support for interoperability protocols has increased the number of Web accessible sources, WebSources. Current wrapper mediator architectures need to be extended with a Wrapper Cost Model (WCM) for WebSources that can estimate the response time (delays) to access sources as well as other relevant statistics. In this paper, we present a Web Prediction Tool (W...

The problem of aggregating individual rankings to create an overall consensus ranking representative of the group is of longstanding interest in group decision making. The problem arises in situations where a group of k Decision Makers (DMs) are asked to rank order n alternatives. The question is how to combine the DMs’ rankings into one consensus ranking. Several different approaches have been...

Working capital management is critical to an organization's financial health and long-term performance. The relationship between working firm performance uncertain, research on size's moderating effect scarce. study investigates the impact of (WCM) examines how size moderates this relationship. Firms must efficiently manage stay financially stable profitable. WCM procedures affect differently d...

The spatiotemporal distribution of soil moisture over the Tibetan Plateau is important for understanding the regional water cycle and climate change. In this paper, the surface soil moisture in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is estimated from time-series VV-polarized Sentinel-1A observations by coupling the water cloud model (WCM) and the advanced integral equation model (AIEM). The vegetatio...

In Fig. 4 the second-harmonic output is shown as a function of fundamental wavelength. The phase-matching peak has the bandwidth predicted by theory, slightly less than O.Znm, demonstrating that the full length of the crystal is involved in the interaction. The conversion efficiency of 0.07Yd Wcm is -10 times smaller than the theoretical value for a perfectly periodic crystal. Note that we have...

This research investigates the impact of working capital management (WCM) on profitability and market performance firms that constitute an Islamic index (Karachi Meezan Index [KMI-30]) in Pakistan during 2002–2013. The data have been divided into three parts, is, preglobal (2002–2007), (2007–2008), postglobal financial crisis period (2008–2013), to examine proposed relationship different macroe...

Soil moisture content (SMC) is an indispensable basic element for crop growth and development in agricultural production. Obtaining accurate information on SMC real time over large areas has important guiding significance yield estimation production management. In this study, the paper reports retrieval of from RADARSAT-2 polarimetric SAR data. The proposed algorithm includes vegetation correct...
