A Study Of Boat Ownership In The Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Area, Paul S. T. Lee, Chen Yeshen

For more than a century Americans have migrated from the rural communities in which they were raised, but by 1970 this process had begun to change.

By 1976 the State stood alone among seven central and southern plains states in having non-metropolitan population losses (Miller, 1978).

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

In this study the crude petroleum market is linked to the market of refined petroleum products through a set of technological relationships. An econometric study is used to quantify the existing relevant variables. The price equations for each refined product are used to derive estimates of elasticities with respect to quantity supplied, price of domestic crude oil and price of imports.
