    Notes: Abstract. A model has been developed based on multiple regression which explains 95% of the variation in nitrate loading of the major rivers in the 4453 km2 Lough Neagh catchment for the years 1971–1987. The model relates loading of nitrate in the hydrological year to fertilizer usage, previous summer rainfall, summer temperature of the current year and December-May flow. It indicates that there is an increase in nitrate loading associated with fertilizer usage, and that the equivalent of 13% of nitrogen fertilizer that is lost as leachate comprises 50% of the river loadings.

    Notes: Abstract. The loess plateau in China is the most developed region of loess in the world in terms of extent, thickness and depositional sequence. It is also the region with the most serious soil erosion in the world. This paper reviews the factors and reasons for soil erosion in this area. The loess is prone to vertical cleavage and its surface soils are soft and loose. Rainstorms are frequent with intense rain concentrated during the summer. Irrational land use and exploitive management have been carried out for thousands of years and express themselves through the loss of grassland and natural forests. Finally, some soil conservation schemes for use in the loess plateau are suggested.

    Notes: Abstract. The WOFOST simulation model is a tool for analysing the growth and production of field crops under a wide range of weather and soil conditions. Such an analysis is important first to assess to what extent crop production is limited by the factors of light, moisture and macro-nutrients, and second to estimate what improvements are possible. The theoretical concept of a production situation, as modelled by WOFOST, is explained, as is the hierarchy of potential production and water-limited and nutrient-limited production situations in the analysis. The organization of the computer files in the model, the structure of the FORTRAN source program and the available standard sets of data are described briefly.

    Notes: Abstract. Assuming that other sources of error can be neglected, the reliability of a land suitability classification depends on the homogeneity of physiographically delineated map units with regard to land qualities. The map unit homogeneity of a small area in France was estimated using 64 observation points, arranged according to a nested sampling scheme, followed by nested analysis of variance.The analysis shows that in this area map units are too heterogeneous to accept the suitability classification as being completely reliable. However, alternative procedures using methods of optimal interpolation to map gradual change within the physiographic units are too expensive at a mapping scale of 1:25000 or smaller. It is not possible to produce completely accurate suitability maps at smaller scales. However, incorporating nested sampling and analysis of variance as standard procedures in land evaluation surveys costs little effort and yields at least an estimate of map accuracy and reliability of the suitability classification.

    Notes: Abstract. The ultimate goal of resource monitoring is to analyse the spatial distribution of the balance between supply and demand of a certain resource. Remote sensing techniques are commonly used for the assessment of the supply of resources. By integrating remote sensing with the related techniques of geographical information systems and spatial modelling, the demand as well as the accessibility of resources can be analysed. The article gives an overview over methods for integrated resource monitoring. Examples from arid environments are also presented.

    Notes: Abstract. Since 1981 information on land sales has been recorded in the Land Register for some counties in Scotland. Rural land sale data for areas of more than 10 hectares in Renfrewshire have been analysed to determine the extent to which land capability, elevation and slope have an influence on land value. Although many factors influence the price paid for rural land, the effect of land capability in particular is demonstrated, with altitude having a minor effect. Using a best fit curvilinear model price ranges are predicted on the basis of land capability classes.

    Notes: This paper uses data from the Survey of Income and Program Participation to estimate durations of poverty spells and to determine whether temporarily poor families have sufficient assets to cover the shortfall of their incomes below poverty—their personal poverty gaps. If poverty is measured using monthly rather than annual income data, four times as many persons enter poverty, but most spells are short: the median duration is between four and six months. More than one-third of all poverty spells are eliminated if financial assets are used to fill poverty gaps, but remaining poverty spells are longer. Separate estimates are made for the elderly and for families with children.

    Notes: This paper utilizes a joint distribution model of labor and nonlabor income that allows us to analyze the impact of demographic change in the U.S. on the marginal distributions of these two income components over time. The beta distribution of the second kind is the hypothetical statistical distribution used in this study to approximate the observed income graduation. This distribution is sum stable which allows us to compare and contrast the marginal distributions in a consistent manner, a property most hypothesized functional forms of income distribution do not possess. We are in effect using a hyperparameter model to do our estimation. We examined the impact of changes over time in labor force participation and population on the marginal distributions of labor and nonlabor income. We disaggregated the variables by sex and age cohorts and found that changes in the age distribution and in the labor supply behavior of women in particular has had a significant effect on the marginal income distributions over time. We also found that the results vary when we examined overall changes in the labor force participation rate vis a vis changes in women's labor force participation separately. The findings are consistent for both income components.
