The DC-DC converters are widely used in photovoltaic generating systems as an interface between PV module and the load. These converters must be chosen to be able to match the maximum power point (MPP) of PV module when climatic conditions change with different resistive load values. So DC-DC converters must be used with MPPT controller in order to reduce losses in the global PV system. This ar...

Understanding how environmental variables influence the distribution and density of organisms over relatively long temporal scales is a central question in ecology given increased climatic variability (e.g., precipitation, ENSO events). The primary goal of our study was to evaluate long-term (15y time span) patterns of climate, as well as environmental parameters in two Neotropical streams in l...

Machine learning (ML) has been utilized to predict climatic parameters, and many successes have reported in the literature. In this paper, we scrutinize effectiveness of five widely used ML algorithms monthly prediction seasonal parameters using image data. Specifically, quantify predictive performance these applied various combinations features. We compare accuracy resulting trained models tha...

Understanding the climate and location aspects are usually the first step in energy applications e from buildings to renewable energy. With so many of the renewable energy sources being significantly dependent on weather, it is essential that the temporal and geospatial variability and distribution of climatic design parameters are investigated for effective planning and operation. ASHRAE-HOF i...
