Time series analysis using spectral techniques: oscillatory currents
Technical and software bulletin 1993
The use of time domain and frequency domain techniques in the analysis of geomorphological time series is discussed and the techniques of spectral analysis are introduced. An Excel worksheet is used to analyse wave-current data from Slapton Sands
The analysis of turbulence time series: statistical and correlation approaches using the MINITAB package
Technical and software bulletin 1993
The theoretical basis and use of statistical and correlation approaches for the analysis of turbulence time series are described. In particular, the analysis of data from high frequency current meter measurements using MINITAB is presented
Fractal analysis is now a growing field of research and an extensive literature concerned with the fractal nature of landscapes is developing. This paper summarizes fractal and related theories and reviews the last decade's research on the fractal
An analysis of the atmospheric water balance over the southern hemisphere
An analysis of the atmospheric water balance over the Southern Hemisphere is conducted for the time period June 1980 through May 1984 that includes the 1982-1983 El Niño event. Notable spatial and temporal variations are evident in the moisture flux
The AA. describe and analyze the distribution of sectoral employment over regions in Spain from 1985 to 1989, using a combination of shift-share analysis and location elasticities. New tendencies have appeared, which have been maintened

Slope evolution in upper Valdarno (Tuscany) : a method for morphometric analysis
Following a detailed description of the main parameters (geological, lithological, geomorphological and anthropogenic) which influence or cause slope instability, the first results of researches on landslides, including an analysis of a wide
computer analysis was carried out. In particular, several slope profiles along the Arno river valley floor, where steep surfaces occur, were analysed.

for monitoring air pollution and for the analysis of cause-effect-relationships in forest ecosystem research. Further research is needed for the simultaneous analysis of spatial and temporal pattern of environmental data.
Recent literature has argued that a policy of invariant tax abatement awards is more costly than necessary, and has suggested several ways of improving tax abatement policy by allowing officials discretion in granting abatements. Analysis suggests
tax abatements should be abandoned as a development policy. More generally, rent-seeking should be recognised as an important concept in the analysis and evaluation of development programmes.
