This change has resulted in an annual cost to revenues (compared to 1990) of approximately $32 million in Victoria and $28 million in South Australia. This translates to $200 million for all pu...

In this survey we offer an overview of the so called local entropy theory, developed since the early 1990s. While doing so we emphasize the connections between the topological dynamics and the ergodic theory view points.

In the 1990s, while there was a large decline in property-related crime along the U.S.Mexico border, violent crime rates began to converge to the national average. At the same time, legal and illegal immigration from Mexico surged and border enforcement rose to unprecedented levels. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between border county crime rates, immigration and enforcement sin...

[1] Two aspects of the onset of a warm event in the Southern Oscillation are 1) the subtropical South Pacific High is weakened in early southern winter which weakens subtropical sea level pressure (SLP) gradients, and thus reduces the trade winds and upwelling along the equator, and 2) in the months that follow, and particularly during the mature phase of the warm event during southern summer, ...
