Reducing Acid Rain In Eastern North America: The Scientific Basis For An Acid Rain Control Policy, Michael Oppenheimer

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Article presents the scientific basis for an effective acid rain control policy.

Part II explains the need for at least a fifty percent reduction in sulfur dioxide emissions to meet a "safe" deposition level. Part III specifies the geographical allocation of sulfur emission reductions necessary to attain target deposition levels in the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. The Article concludes by demonstrating the need for …

Is Proof Of Statistical Significance Relevant?, David H. Kaye

Journal Articles

The classic treatises on evidence note that the court or jury must weigh the evidence, and upon weighing it, determine whether the plaintiff or the defendant prevails. Some courts, however, have indicated that statistical evidence should not be admitted unless it is subjected to a procedure known as 'hypothesis testing.'

Yet, many circumstances arise in which courts or administrators …
