But the word, despite what it implies about size, also denotes deflation, death, and twisting in the wind.
Accounting for this in our statistical analysis model allows us to decrease the sample size by a deflation factor of 0.84.
The Riksbank, which is trying to stave off deflation, also increased the size of its quantitative-easing programme.
Trails in sand, defined in this study as the grain size fraction 63 2000 μm, show higher deflation thresholds (the critical wind condition at which wind erosion starts) than the surrounding undisturbed soil.
It grew to three times that size a decade later and yet deflation persisted.
Kulinskaya and Olkin ([2014]) proposed approaching the problem of specification of a random effects model in meta-analysis in terms of a multiplicative model for the distribution of the effect size parameters that allows inflation or deflation.
With the largest amount of debt relative to the size of its economy among the rich countries, and a stubborn deflation problem to boot, Japan has an economic time-bomb ticking beneath it.
After Haruhiko Kuroda, Japan's new central bank governor, promised to double the size of the country's monetary base in a bold bid to banish deflation, anything Draghi had to offer would be seen as a damp squib.
The stock market rally is also aided by growing speculation that central banks including Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank will soon increase the size of their stimulus programs to help prevent their economies from falling into deflation again.
Specifically, StO2 can be measured at different anatomical sites (thenar, forearm, deltoid), using different near-infrared spectroscopy probe sizes (15 mm vs. 25 mm) and different types and levels of ischemic deflation thresholds or ischemic times.
