Studying Herbicide Resistance Using Treatment Area Dynamics Model, Agam N. Sinha, Dale L. Shaner
Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture
Repeated use of a herbicide or herbicides with the same mode of action on a particular crop over a number of years may cause the selection of herbicide resistant weed populations. As a result effective weed control is lost which can seriously affect crop yield and quality. The selection of herbicide resistant weed populations is a concern not only for crop-growers, but also the manufacturers of the affected herbicides. In the present paper a two-step procedure is developed to identify the herbicide resistant activity in a particular crop growing region by estimating the resistant areas (in acres/hectares) in a given …

Earthquake Insurance: Mandated Disclosure And Homeowner Response In California, Risa Palm, Michael E. Hodgson
Earthquake Insurance: Mandated Disclosure And Homeowner Response In California, Risa Palm, Michael E. Hodgson
Geosciences Faculty Publications
Earthquake insurance can reduce potentially disastrous economic losses to house• holds and is therefore a prime method of mitigating against the worst economic effects of damaging earthquakes. The decision to purchase such insurance is a special case in the general study of individual response to uncertainty in the environment. An understanding of this decision process elucidates the ways in which environmental information becomes translated into behavior change. Although California legislation has mandated the disclosure of the availability of earthquake insurance to all residential property owners since 1984, less than half of California homeowners have earthquake insurance. This paper reports on …

Reply To Valverde, Paul B. Thompson
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Professor Thompson responds to Valverde's argument, in the last issue, that his approach to Risk puts too much emphasis on the distinction between Risk subjectivism and Risk objectivism. In doing so, he asserts, inter alia, that anchoring Risk judgments in a probabilistic framework does not go far enough in rejecting reigning Risk-analysis notions of "real Risk."
