This manuscript aims to create large-scale calculations of agro-climatic factors from global climatic data with high granularity-climatic ERA5-Land dataset the Copernicus Climate Change Service in particular. First, we analyze existing approaches used for factor calculation and formulate a frame our calculations. Then describe design methods visualization certain factors. We then run two case s...

Metrics that synthesize the complex effects of climate change are essential tools for mapping future threats to biodiversity and predicting which species are likely to adapt in place to new climatic conditions, disperse and establish in areas with newly suitable climate, or face the prospect of extirpation. The most commonly used of such metrics is the velocity of climate change, which estimate...

Climatic niche shifts have been documented in a number of invasive species by comparing the native and adventive climatic ranges in which they occur. However, these shifts likely represent changes in the realized climatic niches of invasive species, and may not necessarily be driven by genetic changes in climatic affinities. Until now the role of rapid niche evolution in the spread of invasive ...

Climate is one of the main drivers of species distribution. However, as different environmental factors tend to co-vary, the effect of climate cannot be taken at face value, as it may be either inflated or obscured by other correlated factors. We used the favourability models of four species (Alytes dickhilleni, Vipera latasti, Aquila fasciata and Capra pyrenaica) inhabiting Spanish mountains a...

Theoretical and empirical research on technology acceptance, while acknowledging the importance of individual beliefs about the compatibility of a technology, has produced equivocal results. This study focuses on further theoretical and empirical development of this important belief in technology acceptance. Specifically, unlike prior research which has examined only one aspect of compatibility...

The introduction of a new product generation forces incumbents in network industries to rebuild their installed base to maintain an advantage over potential entrants. We study if backward compatibility can help moderate this process of rebuilding an installed base. Using a structural model of the US market for handheld game consoles, we show that backward compatibility lets incumbents transfer ...

Unlike stimulus-response compatibility, which has been explored for aging effects, the motor behavior issue of response-response (R-R) compatibility has not been addressed in the gerontological literature. R-R compatibility refers to the ease with which two responses can be prepared together either simultaneously or as choice alternatives. In the present study, young, middleaged, and elderly ad...

The present study was designed to examine the hypothesis that stimulus-response arrangements with high ideomotor compatibility lead to substantial compatibility effects even in simple response tasks. In Experiment 1, participants executed pre-instructed finger movements in response to compatible and incompatible finger movements. A pronounced reaction time advantage was found for compatible as ...

Despite the rapid development of knowledge it still remains fundamental that mistakes within the ABO and Rhesus systems are responsible for virtually all fatal mismatched transfusions. It therefore cannot be too highly stressed that the careful preliminary grouping of the bloods of all patients for transfusion is of prime importance, irrespective of whether there is a previous record of their b...

This writeup describes the models from two papers [1] and [2]. The model in [1] uses the throughput model of [2] for the congestion avoidance phase. There are three phases: connection establishment, Slow Start, Congestion avoidance. This is a model of the congestion control procedures implemented in the Reno version. Only results are provided in this paper. For a detailed derivation, see http:/...
