    If we use multiple regression models we would be able to get a more accurate result. 3.The three drivers I chose were 1.) available Ton miles 2.) Number of Departures 3.)Revenue Passengers Miles These three drivers had the best R square values and that is why I chose them. This method is a considerable upgrade from all of the other methods and gives us the best available outcome. This outcome takes multiple variables and combines them into one equation. The multiple regressions R square(.8615) is

    Stream temperature is one of the prominent factors that dictates biotic and abiotic processes in a stream. Stream temperature is affected by streamside land use, air temperature, wind speed, solar radiation, groundwater influx, depth and turbidity. With projected rising air temperatures and extremes of precipitation due to climate change, it is anticipated that stream temperatures will rise in the future. Understanding the response of stream temperature to different external variables can provide

    We compared linear model and generalised additive model (GAM) with a smoothing function of 0.6 using analysis of variance (with a Chi-square test). The results indicated that incorporating nonlinear effects improved the model considerably (P=0.0001), which was reflected in significantly lower AIC values of GAM (AIC=292. 9) compared to linear model (AIC=305.6). This suggests a non - linear response in S to temperature changes throughout the year, with

With poverty rates edging higher this is even more important in our modern day. The unemployment rate is one of the key indicators of the health of our economy. The standard of living for most people falls greatly once they have reached the poverty rate, which makes people live nervously, frantically, and gives greater incentive for them to commit
