Abstract The identification of projected changes in temperature caused by global warming at a fine-scale spatial resolution is great importance for the high-altitude glacier and snow covered Upper Indus Basin. This study used novel multimodel ensemble mean bias-correction technique which uses empirical mode decomposition method to correct bias seven CMIP6 GCMs outputs with reference European Ce...

Air temperature (Ta) is a key input in a wide range of agroclimatic applications. Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Ts (Land Surface Temperature (LST)) products are widely used to estimate daily Ta. However, only daytime LST (Ts-day) or nighttime LST (Ts-night) data have been used to estimate Tmax/Tmin (daily maximum or minimum air temperature), respectively. The relationshi...

The multifractal relationship between reference evapotranspiration (ET0), computed by the Penmann-Monteith equation (PM), relative humidity (RH) and mean surface temperature (Tmean) was studied in middle zone of Guadalquivir River Valley (south Spain) a previous study. This work extends that study to average wind speed (U2) solar radiation (SR), focusing on more recent years. All agro-meteorolo...

[1] Pronounced changes in land use and surface properties like those that have occurred in the Sahel could lead to reduced land surface emissivity and thus might have an asymmetric impact on daytime and nighttime surface air temperature. This paper analyzes the sensitivity of simulated climate and energy balance to changes in soil emissivity over the Sahel using the recently developed Community...

The aim of this study was an analysis of the time required to swim to a victim and tow them back to shore, while perfoming the flutter-kick and the dolphin-kick using fins. It has been hypothesized that using fins while using the dolphin-kick when swimming leads to reduced rescue time. Sixteen lifeguards took part in the study. The main tasks performed by them, were to approach and tow (double ...

Previously, general random-search algorithms were considered [2], [6] for minimum distance (MD) decoding, which finds the codeword(s) c ∈ C with the minimum Hamming distance d(c, a) to the received vector a. Then the following results are used to reduce the complexity of MD decoding. Evseev has proved [5] that for any linear code C the decoding error probability of MD decoding is at most double...
