Most Real Business Cycle (RBC) models use the Solow residual as a proxy for a measured aggregate productivity shock. This paper studies implications of the Malmquist productivity index for business cycle analysis using a standard RBC model. By doing this, the study seeks to broaden areas of macroeconomic applications for the Malmquist index. More specifically, this paper chooses aggregate produ...

The impact of increasing anthropogenic atmospheric nitrogen deposition on marine biogeochemistry is uncertain. We performed simulations to quantify its effect on nitrogen cycling and marine productivity in a global 3-D ocean biogeochemistry model. Nitrogen fixation provides an efficient feedback by decreasing immediately to deposition, whereas water column denitrification increases more gradual...

In the context of construction management, Social Infrastructure Projects (SIPs) have long been overlooked. However, SIPs are one of the main criteria for enhancing economic productivity. This paper analyses the results of a survey aiming to develop a framework for SIP success factors to enhance the likelihood of success in the provision of SIPs in Malaysia. The principal ...
