Sensitivity Analysis of Banks Efficiency to the Financial Variables
Discriminant analysis is a classification method that can predict the group membership of a newly sampled observation. In discriminant analysis, classification of new observed data has an uncertainty. In this paper, the confidence degree is introduced to determine the confidence of classification of new observed data. Then, a Monte Carlo-based sensitivity analysis is applied to an assessment of...
متن کاملSensitivity of Very Small Glaciers in the Swiss Alps to Future Climate Change
Very small glaciers (<0.5 km2) account for more than 80% of the total number of glaciers in midto low-latitude mountain ranges. Although their total area and volume is small compared to larger glaciers, they are a relevant component of the cryosphere, contributing to landscape formation, local hydrology, and sea-level rise. Worldwide glacier monitoring mostly focuses on medium-sized to large gl...
متن کاملComparing three different methods to model scenarios of future glacier change in the Swiss Alps
Ongoing atmospheric warming causes rapid shrinking of glaciers in the European Alps, with a high chance of their near-complete disappearance by the end of the 21st century. Here we present a comparison of three independent approaches to model the possible evolution of the glaciers in the Swiss Alps over the 21st century. The models have different levels of complexity, work at a regional scale a...
متن کاملGeomorphology of the Hérens valley (Swiss Alps)
This paper presents a geomorphological map of the Hérens valley in the Western Swiss Alps. With an area of 270 km and altitudes ranging from 470 to 4357 m a.s.l., this valley is one of the main secondary catchments of the Upper Rhône valley. The high differences in altitudes, combined with a varied geology, create an important geomorphic diversity. The main processes active in mountain areas, t...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of Different Convection Schemes and Center Domains for Numerical Simulation of Winter Precipitation Over Iran
This paper qualifies the effect of different convection schemes and center-domains on the simulation of winter precipitation over Iran using RegCM3 numerical climate model. It is compressible, finite difference with hydrostatic equilibrium in sigma coordinate with a semi-implicit algorithm for reduction of horizontal diffusion. Iran experienced two dry and wet periods during winters of 1997 and...
