Statistical Analysis in Climate Research Hans von Storch Francis Zwiers

Climate is a complex system: it has many variables, and they are acting nonlinearly, in general. Therefore, no exact answers to questions should be expected, and many climatic processes are and will be poorly understood. That means that statistical analysis is undeniable in climate research. This single book provides climatologists}whether they work in modeling or in measuring, whether they are...

Statistical Analysis on IoT Research Trends: A Survey

Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel and emerging paradigm to connect real/physical and virtual/logical world together. So, it will be necessary to apply other related scientific concepts in order to achieve this goal. The main focus of this paper is to identify the research topics in IoT. For this purpose, a comprehensive study has been conducted on the vast range of research articles. IoT conc...

Iran's Future Climate Conditions and Hazard in Climate Research

Global temperatures have increased in the past 100 years by an average of 0.74°C (IPCC, 2013), with minimum temperatures increasing faster than maximum temperatures and winter temperatures increasing faster than summer temperatures (IPCC, 2013). Total annual rainfall tends to increase at the higher latitudes and near the equator, while rainfall in the sub-tropics is likely to decline and become...

Cleansing and preparation of data for statistical analysis: A step necessary in oral health sciences research

In many published articles, there is still no mention of quality control processes, which might be an indication of the insufficient importance the researchers attach to undertaking or reporting such processes. However, quality control of data is one of the most important steps in research projects. Lack of sufficient attention to quality control of data might have a detrimental effect on the r...
