These communities differ with respect to the strength of other potential limiting resources such as ligth (self-shading) or water. Thus, this negative response is best explained by changes in soil chemistry that resulted directly or indirectly from N additions. 展开 ...
(Capital productivity and labor productivity are frequently considered together as an indicator of a country’s overall standard of living.) Total factor productivity is the portion of growth in output not explained by growth in labor or capital. This type of productivity is sometimes called “...
Labour productivity is a common measure in such discussions, even though total (or multi) factor productivity (TFP or MFP) is the in-principle preferred measure. It is the bit of growth in output or output per capita that can’t be explained just by the addition of more inputs (labour...
Maximizing digital productivity, Wang explained, will require overcoming three critical challenges. First, the industry will need to figure out how to support the massive computing power needed to provide digital services. Second, it will need to provide guaranteed connectivity services for massive numbe...
Heterogeneity does not invalidate the synthesized findings but limits the extent to which they can be generalised. This is particularly the case with respect to firm-level private returns, where moderating factors explain only part of the heterogeneity that cannot be explained by sampling differences....
Productivity growth means getting more from our work and from our investments (see sidebar “Measuring productivity”). It is especially needed now as the world faces the many challenges of a new geo-economic era. Productivity growth is the best antidote to the asset price inflation of the past...
“We needed to create the best fitness device, but how often are you really at the gym?” Paek mused, “Most people spend the majority of their day at work. This device needs to be a great productivity device as well, and Cortana integrated with Windows can provide ...
In general, the prospects are dim because progress in raising average schooling levels has been slow even under the best historical scenarios. We also examine whether the apparent failure of education can be explained by low wage returns to schooling, and poor underlying conditions. We find that ...
We're at an inflection point. Hustle used to be seen as good in itself, but we're all slowly understanding that it isn't. That hard work isn't its own reward, and productivity isn't the point. Sometimes there are goals or projects that are worth working toward with everything you ...
For the analysis of Experiment 2, plant biomass was log-transformed to improve homoscedasticity and explained using a linear model with plant species, inocula species, and their interactions as fixed effects. Seedling height at planting by plant species was included as a covariate to remove the ...
