Asset Markets And Investment Decisions, A. De Waegenaere, Heracles M. Polemarchakis, L. Ventura Feb 1997

Asset Markets And Investment Decisions, A. De Waegenaere, Heracles M. Polemarchakis, L. Ventura

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

In an incomplete asset market, firms assign values to investment plans by projecting their payoffs on the span of the payoffs of marketed assets; equivalently, firms employ the Capital Asset Pricing Model. This is a criterion that does not require firms to possess information, such as the marginal valuation of revenue across date – events by shareholders, which is not observable; rather, it is based on information revealed by the prices and payoffs of marketed assets. Under standard assumptions, competitive equilibria exist. But, competitive equilibrium allocations need not satisfy a condition of constrained pareto optimality that recognizes the incompleteness of …


Some Higher Order Theory For A Consistent Nonparametric Model Specification Test, Yanqin Fan, Oliver B. Linton Feb 1997

Some Higher Order Theory For A Consistent Nonparametric Model Specification Test, Yanqin Fan, Oliver B. Linton

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

We provide second order theory for a smoothing-based model specification test. We derive the asymptotic cumulants and justify an Edgeworth distributional approximation valid to order close to n -1 . This is used to define size-corrected critical values whose null rejection frequency improves on the normal critical values. Our simulations confirm the efficacy of this method in moderate sized samples

The Steady Flow Between Reservoirs With Different Density And Level Through A Contraction, A. Odulo, J. C. Swanson, D. Mendelsohn Jan 1997

The Steady Flow Between Reservoirs With Different Density And Level Through A Contraction, A. Odulo, J. C. Swanson, D. Mendelsohn

Journal of Marine Research

This paper presents a complete analytical solution of steady gravity flow between two reservoirs connected by a channel of slowly varying breadth and containing fluids of different densities and levels. The hydrostatic approximation is used and dissipation is neglected. It is shown that seven different regimes are possible depending on the value of the parameter δ = γ/ε, which is the ratio of relative lighter and denser reservoir level difference, γ, to positive relative density difference, ε. The exact solution of the problem is obtained for all these regimes. If the level of the heavier fluid reservoir is higher than …


Large-Scale Processes In The Upper Layers Of The Indian Ocean Inferred From Temperature Climatology, A. S. Unnikrishnan, S. Prasanna Kumar, G. S. Navelkar Jan 1997

Large-Scale Processes In The Upper Layers Of The Indian Ocean Inferred From Temperature Climatology, A. S. Unnikrishnan, S. Prasanna Kumar, G. S. Navelkar

Journal of Marine Research

Determination of amplitudes and phases for the annual and semi-annual cycle of the temperature in the Indian Ocean north of 20S from Levitus temperature climatology (1982) gives maximum amplitudes of the seasonal cycle at 100 m with the dominance of semi-annual cycle in the equatorial region and annual cycle elsewhere in the domain. The Bay of Bengal shows characteristics of the westward-propagating Rossby waves of annual period, while the Arabian Sea shows the dominance of Ekman pumping in the central region and westward-propagating features in the eastern region. Qualitative evidences obtained from the distribution of depth of 20°C isotherm and …


Eigenanalysis Of The Two-Dimensional Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation Problem, V. A. Sheremet, G. R. Ierley, V. M. Kamenkovich Jan 1997

Eigenanalysis Of The Two-Dimensional Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation Problem, V. A. Sheremet, G. R. Ierley, V. M. Kamenkovich

Journal of Marine Research

A barotropic model of the wind-driven circulation in the subtropical region of the ocean is considered. A no-slip condition is specified at the coasts and slip at the fluid boundaries. Solutions are governed by two parameters: inertial boundary-layer width; and viscous boundary-layer width. Numerical computations indicate the existence of a wedge-shaped region in this two-dimensional parameter space, where three steady solutions coexist. The structure of the steady solution can be of three types: boundary-layer, recirculation and basin-filling-gyre. Compared to the case with slip conditions (Ierley and Sheremet, 1995) in the no-slip case the wedge-shaped region is displaced to higher Reynolds …


Eddy Formation On A Continental Slope, Janet M. Becker, Rick Salmon Jan 1997

Eddy Formation On A Continental Slope, Janet M. Becker, Rick Salmon

Journal of Marine Research

We consider a uniform-density ocean in which the depth-independent horizontal velocity is driven by a two-gyre wind. Numerical solutions of the governing vorticity equation reveal that the solutions with a flat ocean bottom differ greatly from those in which a continental shelf and slope are present along the western boundary. In the ocean basin with a western continental shelf, steady inertial circulations readily lose stability to unsteady inertial circulations that spawn eddies. However, eddies do not form in the corresponding solutions for the flat-bottom ocean. Reducing the friction leads to flat-bottom solutions that shed eddies far offshore, but still differ …


Mechanisms Of Infaunal Polychaete Dispersal And Colonization In An Intertidal Sandflat, David H. Shull Jan 1997

Mechanisms Of Infaunal Polychaete Dispersal And Colonization In An Intertidal Sandflat, David H. Shull

Journal of Marine Research

Changes in benthic infaunal population densities following disturbance may be influenced by colonization mechanisms. Accordingly, this study experimentally examined the relative importance of four colonization mechanisms for seven numerically dominant polychaete species in an intertidal estuarine sandflat in Connecticut, USA. The colonization mechanism an organism used depended upon species characteristics including larval developmental mode and depth distribution within the sediment. A spionid polychaete with planktonic larval development, Polydora cornuta, colonized experimental disturbance treatments primarily by larval settlement. A surface-dwelling syllid polychaete with nonplanktonic development, Streptosyllis arenae, colonized mainly by bedload transport. Two syllid polychaetes developmentally and morphologically similar …


Analysis Of The Mean Annual Cycle Of The Dissolved Oxygen Anomaly In The World Ocean, Raymond G. Najjar, Ralph F. Keeling Jan 1997

Analysis Of The Mean Annual Cycle Of The Dissolved Oxygen Anomaly In The World Ocean, Raymond G. Najjar, Ralph F. Keeling

Journal of Marine Research

A global climatology of the dissolved oxygen anomaly (the excess over saturation) is created with monthly resolution in the upper 500 m of the ocean. The climatology is based on dissolved oxygen, temperature and salinity data archived at the National Oceanographic Data Center. Examination of this climatology reveals statistically significant annual cycles throughout the upper 500 m of the World Ocean, though seasonal variations are most coherent in the North Atlantic, where data density is greatest. Vertical trends in the phase and amplitude of the annual cycle are noted. The cycle in surface waters is characterized by a summer maximum …


Phytoplankton Patches At Fronts: A Model Of Formation And Response To Wind Events, Peter J. S. Franks, Leonard J. Walstad Jan 1997

Phytoplankton Patches At Fronts: A Model Of Formation And Response To Wind Events, Peter J. S. Franks, Leonard J. Walstad

Journal of Marine Research

A subsurface patch of chlorophyll is a feature common to many fronts. The dynamics underlying the patch formation are not well understood; however, there appears to be a strong link between the biological and physical dynamics. Here we test the hypothesis that patch formation is a result of wind-forced motions of the front. Frontal responses to transient wind events include acceleration of the surface layers, changes in mixed-layer depth, and excitation of nonlinear oscillations at the front. Such dynamics can affect nutrient fluxes across the pycnocline and the coupling between trophic levels. To test this hypothesis, we developed a two-dimensional …
