  • Organizational Forms in Professional Cycling – Efficiency Issues of the UCI Pro Tour
    Organizational Forms in Professional Cycling – Efficiency Issues of the UCI Pro Tour Luca Rebeggiani§ * Davide Tondani DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 345 First Version: August 2006 This Version: July 2007 ISSN: 0949–9962 ABSTRACT: This paper gives a first economic approach to pro cycling and analyses the changes induced by the newly introduced UCI Pro Tour on the racing teams’ behaviour. We develop an oligopolistic model starting from the well known Cournot framework to analyse if the actual setting of the UCI Pro Tour leads to a partially unmeant behaviour of the racing teams. In particular, we show that the blamed regional concentration of their race participation depends on a lack of incentives stemming from the licence assignation procedure. Our theo- retical results are supported by empirical data concerning the performance of the racing teams in 2005 and 2006. As a recommendation for future improvements, we derive from the model the need for a relegation system for racing teams. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Der Aufsatz stellt die erste ökonomische Analyse des professionellen Radsports dar. Er analysiert insbesondere die Anreizwirkungen der neuen UCI Pro Tour auf Teams und Fahrer. Ausgehend von dem bekannten Cournot-Ansatz entwickeln wir ein einfaches Oligopol-Modell, um zu untersuchen, ob die der- zeitige Pro Tour-Organisation zu einem unerwünschten Verhalten der Teilnehmer führt. Wir zeigen, dass insbe- sondere das Problem der geographischen Konzentration der Rennteilnahmen der Teams von den mangelnden Anreizen abhängt, die vom jetzigen Lizenzvergabesystem ausgehen. Unsere theoretischen Ergebnisse werden durch empirische Daten aus der Pro Tour 2005 und 2006 gestützt. Als Empfehlung für zukünftige Entwicklun- gen leiten wir aus dem Modell die Notwendigkeit einer Öffnung der Pro Tour ab, mit Auf- und Abstiegsmög- lichkeiten für Rennteams.

Read Full License Page 1/27 Abstract Background The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is an Endangered Species Act-listed subspecies that requires forests with old-growth characteristics for nesting. With climate change, large, severe wildres are expected to be more common and an increasing threat to spotted owl persistence. Understanding re severity patterns related to nesting forest can be valuable for forest management that supports conservation and recovery, especially if nesting forest functions as re refugia (i.e., lower re severity than surrounding landscape). We examined the relationship between re severity and nesting forests in 472 large wildres (> 200 ha) that occurred rangewide during 1987–2017. We mapped re severities (unburned-low, moderate, high) within each re using relative difference normalized burn ratios and quantied differences in severity between pre-re nesting forest (edge and interior) and non-nesting forest. We also quantied these relationships within areas of three re regimes (low severity, very frequent; mixed severity, frequent; high severity, infrequent).

  • Public Safety, Interoperability and the Transition to Digital Television
    Order Code RL32622 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Public Safety, Interoperability and the Transition to Digital Television Updated April 18, 2005 Linda K. Moore Analyst in Telecommunications Policy Resources, Science, and Industry Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Public Safety, Interoperability and the Transition to Digital Television Summary Plans for the use of spectrum intended for wireless emergency communications and interoperability are enmeshed in the technical requirements and complex economic and policy issues that surround the planned transition to digital television (DTV) in the United States. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to allocate 24 MHZ of spectrum at 700 MHZ to public safety, without providing a hard deadline for the transfer. The channels designated for public safety are among those currently held by TV broadcasters. The 9/11 Commission Report recommended in 2004 that “Congress should support pending legislation which provides for the expedited and increased assignment of radio spectrum for public safety purposes.” This was a reference to the Homeland Emergency Response Operations Act, or HERO Act — introduced by Representative Jane Harman — which would have required the FCC to “take all actions necessary to complete assignments” for these channels so that operations could begin no later than January 1, 2007, in line with the deadline originally envisioned for the completion of the transition to DTV for all affected channels. After the appearance of the Report, several bills resembling the HERO Act were introduced. Steps to release the spectrum were included in both the key House (H.R.
