Argentina soybean yield model
A model based on multiple regression was developed to estimate soybean yields for the country of Argentina. A meteorological data set was obtained for the country by averaging data for stations within the soybean growing area. Predictor variables for the model were derived from monthly total precipitation and monthly average temperature. A trend variable was included for the years 1969 to 1978 since an increasing trend in yields due to technology was observed between these years
Argentina wheat yield model
Five models based on multiple regression were developed to estimate wheat yields for the five wheat growing provinces of Argentina. Meteorological data sets were obtained for each province by averaging data for stations within each province. Predictor variables for the models were derived from monthly total precipitation, average monthly mean temperature, and average monthly maximum temperature. Buenos Aires was the only province for which a trend variable was included because of increasing trend in yield due to technology from 1950 to 1963
Brazil soybean yield covariance model
A model based on multiple regression was developed to estimate soybean yields for the seven soybean-growing states of Brazil. The meteorological data of these seven states were pooled and the years 1975 to 1980 were used to model since there was no technological trend in the yields during these years. Predictor variables were derived from monthly total precipitation and monthly average temperature
Argentina corn yield model
A model based on multiple regression was developed to estimate corn yields for the country of Argentina. A meteorological data set was obtained for the country by averaging data for stations within the corn-growing area. Predictor variables for the model were derived from monthly total precipitation, average monthly mean temperature, and average monthly maximum temperature. A trend variable was included for the years 1965 to 1980 since an increasing trend in yields due to technology was observed between these years
Brazil wheat yield covariance model
A model based on multiple regression was developed to estimate wheat yields for the wheat growing states of Rio Grande do Sul, Parana, and Santa Catarina in Brazil. The meteorological data of these three states were pooled and the years 1972 to 1979 were used to develop the model since there was no technological trend in the yields during these years. Predictor variables were derived from monthly total precipitation, average monthly mean temperature, and average monthly maximum temperature
Gauge-Fixing and Residual Symmetries in Gauge/Gravity Theories with Extra Dimensions
We study compactified pure gauge/gravitational theories with gauge-fixing
terms and show that these theories possess quantum mechanical SUSY-like
symmetries between unphysical degrees of freedom. These residual symmetries are
global symmetries and generated by quantum mechanical N=2 supercharges. Also,
we establish new one-parameter family of gauge choices for higher-dimensional
gravity, and calculate as a check of its validity one graviton exchange
amplitude in the lowest tree-level approximation. We confirm that the result is
indeed -independent and the cancellation of the -dependence is
ensured by the residual symmetries. We also give a simple interpretation of the
vDVZ-discontinuity, which arises in the lowest tree-level approximation, from
the supersymmetric point of view.Comment: REVTeX4, 17 pages, 1 figur

Supersymmetry in gauge theories with extra dimensions
We show that a quantum-mechanical N=2 supersymmetry is hidden in 4d mass
spectrum of any gauge invariant theories with extra dimensions. The N=2
supercharges are explicitly constructed in terms of differential forms. The
analysis can be extended to extra dimensions with boundaries, and for a single
extra dimension we clarify a possible set of boundary conditions consistent
with 5d gauge invariance, although some of the boundary conditions break 4d
gauge symmetries.Comment: 18 page
