In recent years, climate change has caused an increase in the air temperature and consequently the temperature of the earth's surface. The temperature of the earth's surface has had various effects on urban life and has caused the formation of thermal islands in cities. Thermal islands are one of the important criteria in regional planning. The cit...

Introduction and Objective: Flood, like other hydrological phenomena, is an uncertain phenomenon that can occur at any time and place and is influenced by various climatic factors, physical characteristics of the basin, vegetation status and land use, and human intervention.

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a deadly disease with no satisfactory treatments. This necessitates the need to develop more efficient treatment modalities for patients with this cancer type. One intriguing modality is tumor-suppressor-restoration-therapy, involving reintroduction of wild-type tumor-suppressor-gene (TSG) into cancer cells, in whic...

Two alternative functional forms of the demand for money that focus on how an economy as a whole adjusts its cash balances have been discussed in the literature. One functional form is obtained by regarding the money supply as exogenous and the price level as endogenous and the other by regarding the money supply as endogenous and the price level a...

In this paper we demonstrate that the phenomenon of a negative shadow price can occur in the context of a small open economy, if the quantitative restriction on imports is in the form of a foreign voluntary export restraint (VER) rather than a domestic import quota. The reason for this asymmetrical result is that an immiserisng "terms of trade&Clos...
