total petroleum hydrocarbon ( tph ) are environmental contaminants that are released into the marine environment through oil spills, industrial and domestic activities. tph are readily transformed into more hydrophilic metabolites, which are accumulated in bile. thus fish bile can be used as a biomarker of exposure of fish to tph in the marine environment. in this study several stations were se...

Ichthyoplankton data provide a base for research into population dynamics of major fishery species. Information on ichthyoplankton ecology forms an important component of stock assessment and fishery management plans. Also, nursery areas are important regions for the recruitment success of fishery stocks and as such, conservation of these areas is a key part of fishery management. Temporal dist...

One of the most compelling pieces evidence for monetary non-neutrality is Mussa puzzle: break in regime when Bretton Woods system broke down increased volatility not only nominal exchange rate but real rate. Using data covering forty-four countries from 1954 to 2019, I find that puzzle generalizable: any a changes also This provides further non-neutrality.

So long as both goods are produced and factor intensity reversals do not occur, each price vector (pX , pY ) corresponds to a unique factor price vector. This should be pretty obvious from both the Woodland-Mussa and the Lerner-Pearce diagram. With the same technology and given prices, there is a unique intersection between the zero profit lines in the Woodland-Mussa diagram. Similarly, for giv...

Khuzestan coastal waters have high fisheries potential and ecological importance. Since different sources of stress exist in this area, the present study was conducted to evaluate ecological quality and to determine health status in Khuzestan coastal sediments based on benthic communities and their biological parameters. Seasonal sampling was done from 20 creeks of Khur-e-Mussa area in Khuzesta...

We consider costly information acquisition in the canonical monopolistic nonlinear pricing model (Mussa and Rosen, 1978; Maskin and Riley, 1984) so that consumers need to incur privately known entry costs in order to learn their preference “intensities” for the quality of the product. We show that by taking into account costly information acquisition, the nature of optimal nonlinear pricing con...

O projeto modernista no Brasil, ao valorizar a brasilidade, objetivou repensar as contradições histórico-brasileiras (JARDIM, 1978), como formação cultural “emprestada”. Tal debate desdobra-se em produções literárias contemporâneas, Meu destino é ser onça (2009), de Alberto Mussa. Sob premissa restauração do mito tupinambá, o autor problematiza importância da onça, metáfora concebida expressão ...
