39. The inefficiency of toll collection as a means of taxation: evidence from the Garden State Parkway

Author

Abstract

In this paper, we calculate the cost of toll collection on New Jersey's Garden State Parkway by extending an existing model to include pollution and fuel costs. The results show that tolls are a very inefficient method of taxation versus fuel and income taxes. We also show that the pollution costs of toll collection are significant. Therefore, when no mass transit alternative exists, and there is no compelling need for congestion pricing, the cost of taxation and pollution can be greatly reduced by replacing tolls with either an income or fuel tax. Also, when tolls are used, the toll road operators should be required to purchase pollution tax credits; otherwise, they are not accounting for a major cost of the toll collection process and are likely to make sub-optimal policy decisions.

41. Measurement of rRNA variations in natural communities of microorganisms on the Southeastern US continental shelf

Author

Kramer, Jonathan G. and Singleton, Fred L.

Subjects
Ribosomal RNA -- Measurement, Microorganisms -- Research, Biological sciences
Abstract

Heterotrophic communities in natural seawater cultures varied with selected substrates, showing that Synechococcus populations were isolated from the water column by differential filtration. The total cellular rRNA content of the target populations were tested by probing RNA purified from these samples with an oligonucleotide complementing a universally conserved region in the eubacterial 16S rRNA. This showed that heterotrophic bacteria responded to the addition of glucose and trace nutrients after a 6-hour lag period.

42. Why strikes occur: evidence from the capital market.

Author

Subjects
Strikes -- Analysis, Labor economics -- Analysis, Collective bargaining -- Analysis, Stock-exchange -- Management
Abstract

The authors examine the relationship between intraindustry announcements of strikes against manufacturing firms and the reaction of stock markets to such announcements. The validity of the theory that strikes result from bargaining errors or differences between union leadership and the rank-and-file is analyzed.

43. Variations in rRNA content of marine Vibrio spp. during starvation-survival and recovery

Abstract

Two phylogenetically related strain of copioytrophic marine bacteria, Vibrio furnissii and V. alginolyticus, were studied to determine the differences in ribosome content during the period of nutrient deprivation and subsequent enrichment following starvation. The methodology involved nutrient depletion either by stationary-phase or nutritional shift-down treatments and the degree of retention of the original rRNA content was measure. Results showed that response to starvation were species dependent and was determined by the nutrient-depletion pattern.
