Our database comprises daily minimum and maximum temperatures observed over 10 years at 859 pairs of meteorological stations throughout France. Each pairing associates a low high station. The influence six predictors on the intensity, frequency, duration temperature inversions is measured by linear regressions. Five are drawn from 250 m-resolution DTM: elevation, depth valley where located, mag...

 Ab initio calculations were employed to investigate nitrogen inversion as a configuration change that can supply an infinitely useful switchable control mechanism for some <span style="letter-sp...

Abstract. This study introduces a new approach to problem of estimating parameter(s) of a given copula. More precisely, using the concept of the generalized linear models (GLM) accompanied with least square method, we introduce an estimation method, say GLM-method. A simulation study has been conducted to provide a omparison among the inversion of Kendal’s tau, the inversion of Spearman’s rho,...

The requirements that are placed on today’s grid are changing. Traditional power flows from power stations to the nearest big city are giving way to more complex patterns. Growing consumption and power trading mean that power must increasingly be transported over large distances. Growth in the use of renewable sources is placing a strain on the system because generation is often located in remo...

What is the nature and function of relief? Relief has been studied little in psychological science despite its familiarity and pervasiveness. Two studies revealed that relief can result from two distinct situations: the narrow avoidance of an aversive outcome (near-miss relief) and completion of an onerous or aversive event (task-completion relief). Study 1 found that recollections of near-miss...
