Indexed Units Of Account: Theory And Assessment Of Historical Experience, Robert J. Shiller Feb 1998

Indexed Units Of Account: Theory And Assessment Of Historical Experience, Robert J. Shiller

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

An indexed unit of account is a money analogue, used to express prices; the unit’s purchasing power is defined by an index. Indexed units of account are not true money in that they are not used as a medium of exchange. The first successful indexed unit of account, the Unidad de Fomento (UF) has been used in Chile since 1967, and has been copied in Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Uruguay. The reasons for creating such units are discussed from the standpoint of monetary theory. The experience with such units in Chile is discussed. It is argued that important practical problems …


Human Behavior And The Efficiency Of The Financial System, Robert J. Shiller Feb 1998

Human Behavior And The Efficiency Of The Financial System, Robert J. Shiller

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Recent literature in empirical finance is surveyed in its relation to underlying behavioral principles, principles which come primarily from psychology, sociology and anthropology. The behavioral principles discussed are: prospect theory, regret and cognitive dissonance, anchoring, mental compartments, overconfidence, over- and underreaction, representativeness heuristic, the disjunction effect, gambling behavior and speculation, perceived irrelevance of history, magical thinking, quasi-magical thinking, attention anomalies, the availability heuristic, culture and social contagion, and global culture.

Enhanced Dispersion Of Near-Inertial Waves In An Idealized Geostrophic Flow, N. J. Balmforth, Stefan G. Llewellyn Smith, W. R. Young Jan 1998

Enhanced Dispersion Of Near-Inertial Waves In An Idealized Geostrophic Flow, N. J. Balmforth, Stefan G. Llewellyn Smith, W. R. Young

Journal of Marine Research

This paper presents a simplified model of the process through which a geostrophic flow enhances the vertical propagation of near-inertial activity from the mixed layer into the deeper ocean. The geostrophic flow is idealized as steady and barotropic with a sinusoidal dependence on the north-south coordinate; the corresponding streamfunction takes the form ψ = - Ψ cos (2αy). Near-inertial oscillations are considered in linear theory and disturbances are decomposed into horizontal and vertical normal modes. For this particular flow, the horizontal modes are given in terms of Mathieu functions. The initial-value problem can then be solved by projecting …

The Malin Cascade In Winter 1996, A. E. Hill, A. J. Souza, K. Jones, J. H. Simpson, G. I. Shapiro, R. Mccandliss, H. Wilson, J. Leftley

Journal of Marine Research

We report evidence for cascading of shelf-edge water down the continental slope northwest of Ireland at 55N in February 1996. The measured surface density contrast between shelf-edge and slope waters was 0.01 kg m-3 and the resulting dense plume was 20-50 m thick over the continental slope and penetrated to a depth of 500 m. Cascade waters were warmer but saltier than overlying slope waters and their shelf-edge origin was confirmed by relatively higher chlorophyll concentrations and a distinctive nutrient signature. Other cross-slope transects 100 km north and south of the cascade site showed dense water at the shelf …


The Influence Of The Ambient Flow On The Spreading Of Convected Water Masses, Sonya Legg, John Marshall Jan 1998

The Influence Of The Ambient Flow On The Spreading Of Convected Water Masses, Sonya Legg, John Marshall

Journal of Marine Research

We investigate the influence of a cyclonic vortical flow on the lateral spreading of newly mixed fluid generated through localized deep convection. Localized open ocean deep convection often occurs within such a cyclonic gyre circulation, since the associated upwardly domed isopycnals and weaker stratification locally precondition the ocean for deeper convection. In the absence of ambient flow, localized convection has been shown to result in strong lateral fluxes of buoyancy generated by baroclinic instability, sufficient to offset the local surface buoyancy loss and limit the density anomaly of the convectively generated water mass. Here we examine the consequences of a …


The Southern Flux Of Sea Ice In The Tatarskiy Strait, Japan Sea And The Generation Of The Liman Current, Seelye Martin, Mitsuhiro Kawase Jan 1998

The Southern Flux Of Sea Ice In The Tatarskiy Strait, Japan Sea And The Generation Of The Liman Current, Seelye Martin, Mitsuhiro Kawase

Journal of Marine Research

The circulation in the surface waters of the Japan Sea is driven in part by thermohaline forcing associated with the flux of cold, low-salinity water from the Tatarskiy Strait. Existing numerical models suggest that this water contributes to the Liman Current, which flows from northeast to southwest along the Russian coast. The major source of Japan Sea freshwater is the Amur River, which flows into the sea through Tatarskiy Strait, but has a near-zero minimum during January to March. As an alternate source of freshwater to the surface layer, we derive from meteorological and remote sensing data for the 1992-1994 …
