Modeling Aceria tosichella biotype distribution over geographic space and time

Over-Summering Ecology of the Wheat Curl Mite (<i>Aceria tosichella</i> Keifer)

Thermal Niches of Two Invasive Genotypes of the Wheat Curl Mite Aceria tosichella: Congruence between Physiological and Geographical Distribution Data.

The wheat curl mite (WCM), Aceria tosichella Keifer, is a major pest of cereals worldwide. It is also a complex of well-defined genetic lineages with divergent physiological traits, which has not been accounted for in applied contexts. The aims of the study were to model the thermal niches of the two most pestiferous WCM lineages, designated MT-1 and MT-8, and to assess the extent to which temp...

modeling loss data by phase-type distribution

بیمه گران همیشه بابت خسارات بیمه نامه های تحت پوشش خود نگران بوده و روش هایی را جستجو می کنند که بتوانند داده های خسارات گذشته را با هدف اتخاذ یک تصمیم بهینه مدل بندی نمایند. در این پژوهش توزیع های فیزتایپ در مدل بندی داده های خسارات معرفی شده که شامل استنباط آماری مربوطه و استفاده از الگوریتم em در برآورد پارامترهای توزیع است. در پایان امکان استفاده از این توزیع در مدل بندی داده های گروه بندی ...

Dense scale selection over space, time and space-time

Scale selection methods based on local extrema over scale of scale-normalized derivatives have been primarily developed to be applied sparsely — at image points where the magnitude of a scale-normalized differential expression additionally assumes local extrema over the domain where the data are defined. This paper presents a methodology for performing dense scale selection, so that hypotheses ...

Geographic characteristics of sable (Martes zibellina) distribution over time in Northeast China

Understanding historical context can help clarify the ecological and biogeographic characteristics of species population changes. The sable (Martes zibellina) population has decreased dramatically in Northeast China since the l950s, and understanding the changes in its distribution over time is necessary to support conservation efforts. To achieve this goal, we integrated ecological niche model...
