In this study, we propose a general statistical modeling approach...
preferred water temperature, average depth, and depth range) were not allowed to co-occur during model selection (see Supplementary Fig.S3for a visualization of the correlation structure among quantitative predictors). Similarly, the predictorsPBSandTSwere not allowed to ...
As an El Nin˜o causes a higher global mean temperature (GMT), a negative SAM is also associated with a higher GMT on interannual time scales. Over the past several decades Antarctic ozone depletion and emissions of greenhouse gases have been forcing a positive trend of the SAM2,18, as ...
Among various factors, the slope length and steepness were found to be the main drivers of soil erosion in the sub-basin. Thus, the study calls for policy measures to lessen the impact of drought and soil erosion. Keywords: Drought vulnerability, Soil erosion, RUSLE, Vegetation Health Index...
Based upon monthly sea surface temperature data from American CODAS and the Climate Monitoring Bulletin issued by the National Climate Center, correlation analysis of sea surface temperature changes among the areas C (0°-10°S, 180°-90°W), W (0°-10°N, 180°-140°E), B (0°-10°...
We further explored how the variations in air temperature were related to the patterns of the surrounding greenspace at different scales. We found that: (1) large air temperature differences existed among residential neighborhoods, with hourly maximum differences in air temperature reaching 5.30 °C ...
site (ceramic and petrochemical industries). Fe and metallurgical emissions produce Zn whose concentration is higher than other materials88. Among the main industrial sources of Zn are electroplating, ore processing, smelting, and drainage from both active and inactive mining activities. The elements ...
This study documents the inter-decadal change of the lagged inter-annual relationship between the TC frequency (TCF) and the local sea surface temperature (SST) in the western North Pacific (WNP) during 1979–2014. An abrupt shift of the lagged relationship between them is observed to occur in...
The learning rate and inverse temperature parameters for each individual were transformed to sigmoidal and exponential scales, respectively. We used the Rsolnp package in R (https://cran.r-project.org/package=Rsolnp) to optimize the likelihood functions in the E-step. In the M-step, the ...
