one of the most important hydrological time series task is to determine if there is any trend in the data and how to achieve stationarity when there is nonstationarity behavior in data. detecting trend and stationarity in hydrological time series may help us to understand the possible links between hydrological processes and global climate changes. in this study yearly, monthly and daily stream...

The Tibetan Plateau (TP) plays a crucial role in the climate change of China as well global change. It is therefore great practical significance to study vegetation and its dynamic changes for regional ecological protection. combination dry notable temperature disparities can lead intricate effects on region’s vegetation. However, there are few studies exploring complex diurnal variations growt...

OBJECTIVE We examined the association between climatologic parameters and daily admissions for non-fatal acute coronary syndromes (ACS) to emergency units of hospitals in the greater Athens area, from January 2001 to August 2002. METHODS Daily mean, maximum and minimum temperatures, relative humidity, wind speed, barometric pressure and a thermo-hydrological index (T.H.I.) were measured at th...

in this study, population dynamics of venerid bivalve paphia cor was investigated for a one-year period (2008-2009) in bushehr shoreline areas (50˚ 40´ e- 29˚ 14´n) to estimate the stock abundance, growth parameters and natural mortality. sampling was carried out bi-monthly by transects at random direction and zigzag pattern with duplicated quadrate (0.25 m2). the length frequency was used to e...

1. introduction one of the six great challenges recognized by the world climate researches program (wcrp) is the prediction and the characteristics of extreme events. the outcomes of various sources indicate that the extreme climate events have significantly increased over the last decades. trend analysis of extreme temperature indicators is of crucial importance in estimating the trend of glob...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is conflicting evidence for whether or not the incidence of stroke is influenced by the daily temperature. The association between daily temperature and incidence of stroke is largely unknown in Korea. This study attempted to evaluate whether the maximum or minimum daily temperature is associated with increased numbers of strokes and stroke subtypes among Seoul resi...

Multiple linear regression models (pest-weather models) were developed between monthly mean brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens light trap catches and monthly mean values of minimum temperature (Tmin), maximum temperature (Tmax), morning relative humidity (RH 1 ) and evening relative humidity (RH 2 ) observed at Maruteru, Andhra Pradesh during 2000-2007 kharif seasons. Comparison betwee...
