متن کاملUnsupervised regionalization of the United States into landscape pattern types
We present a pattern-based regionalization of the conterminous US – a partitioning of the country into a number of mutually exclusive and exhaustive regions that maximizes the intra-region stationarity of land cover patterns and inter-region disparity between those patterns. The result is a discretization of the land surface into a number of landscape pattern types (LPTs) – spatial units each c...
متن کاملRegionalization versus competition in complex cancer surgery.
The empirical association between high hospital procedure volume and lower mortality rates has led to recommendations for the regionalization of complex surgical procedures. While regionalization may improve outcomes, it also reduces market competition, which has been found to lower prices and improve health care quality. This study estimates the potential net benefits of regionalizing the Whip...

The resulting histograms are subjected to harmonic analysis. The spatial distributions of the reduction of variance and phase angles of the harmonic components suggest substantial variation in the diurnal distribution ...
