    • Global Governance of Global Monetary Relations: Rationale and Feasibility 

      Frieden, Jeffry (Germany Kiel Institute for the World Economy, 2009)
      Is there a valid argument for international cooperation, and some form of international governance structure, in the international monetary realm? On the purely economic front, the argument is not strong. Yet a broader ...

    • Global Imbalances, National Rebalancing, and the Political Economy of Recovery 

      Frieden, Jeffry (Center on Foreign Relations, 2009)
      Global macroeconomic imbalances—massive borrowing by some countries and massive lending by others—drove the financial boom and bubble that eventually burst into the current crisis. These imbalances are now shrinking, ...

    • Global impact of fossil fuel combustion on atmospheric NOx 

      Horowitz, Larry W.; Jacob, Daniel James (Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)
      Fossil fuel combustion is the largest global source of NOx to the troposphere. This source is concentrated in polluted continental boundary layers, and the extent to which it impacts tropospheric chemistry on a global scale ...

    • Global Implications of Self-Oriented National Monetary Rules 

      Obstfeld, Maurice; Rogoff, Kenneth S. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2002)
      It is well-known that if international linkages are relatively small, the potential gains to international monetary policy coordination are typically quite limited. But when goods and financial markets are tightly linked, ...

    • Global inventory of nitrogen oxide emissions constrained by space-based observations of NO2 columns 

      Martin, Randall V.; Jacob, Daniel James; Chance, Kelly V.; Kurosu, Thomas; Palmer, Paul; Evans, Matthew (Wiley-Blackwell, 2003)
      We use tropospheric NO2 columns from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) satellite instrument to derive top-down constraints on emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx ≡ NO + NO2), and combine these with a priori ...

    • Global inventory of sulfur emissions with 1°×1° resolution 

      Spiro, Peter A.; Jacob, Daniel James; Logan, Jennifer A. (Wiley-Blackwell, 1992)
      A global inventory of gaseous sulfur emissions with 1°×1° resolution is described. Emissions from fuel combustion and industrial activities are estimated for countries where no detailed inventories are available by using ...

      Over 95% of all metazoan (animal) species comprise the “invertebrates,” but very few genomes from these organisms have been sequenced. We have, therefore, formed a “Global Invertebrate Genomics Alliance” (GIGA). Our intent ...

    • The global landscape of intron retentions in lung adenocarcinoma 

      Zhang, Qu; Li, Hua; Jin, Hong; Tan, Huibiao; Zhang, Jun; Sheng, Sitong (BioMed Central, 2014)
      Background: The transcriptome complexity in an organism can be achieved by alternative splicing of precursor messenger RNAs. It has been revealed that alternations in mRNA splicing play an important role in a number of ...

    • Global Lifetime of Elemental Mercury Against Oxidation by Atomic Bromine in the Free Troposphere 

      Holmes, Christopher; Jacob, Daniel J.; Yang, Xin (American Geophysical Union, 2006)
      We calculate the global mean atmospheric lifetime of elemental mercury (Hg0) against oxidation by atomic bromine (Br) in the troposphere by combining recent kinetic data for the Hg-Br system with modeled global concentrations ...

    • A Global Model for Forecasting Political Instability 

      Goldstone, Jack A.; Bates, Robert H.; Epstein, David L.; Gurr, Ted Robert; Lustik, Michael B.; Marshall, Monty G.; Ulfelder, Jay; Woodward, Mark (Wiley Blackwell (Blackwell Publishing), 2010)
      Examining onsets of political instability in countries worldwide from 1955 to 2003, we develop a model that distinguishes countries that experienced instability from those that remained stable with a two-year lead time and ...
