This paper explores practical applications of bivariate modelling via copulas two likely dependent random variables, i.e., the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) coupled with extreme rainfall on small island Madeira, Portugal. due to its size (∼740 km2), very pronounced mountain landscape, and location in Atlantic, experiences a wide range regimes, or microclimates, which hamper analyses rainfall...

Aim We assessed the effects of regional oceanographic shifts on macrofaunal biodiversity and biogeography cold-water coral reefs (CWCRs). CWCRs are often hotspots ecosystem services in frontline exposure to multiple human pressures climate change. Almost nothing is known about how large-scale atmospheric variability affects structure CWCRs’ communities over ecological timescales, this hinders t...

Water resource forecasting generally centres on understanding hydrological variability over coming months or years, so that water managers can prepare for extremes such as droughts floods (Chang & Guo, 2020; Hao et al., 2018). Some systems seek to project further into the future allow long-term planning of infrastructure and resilience climate change (Svensson 2015). These rely directly indirec...

Discrepancies between empirical data and economic theory in ultimatum bargaining have been a subject of interest for over 30 years. Previous experiments have observed individuals walking away from essentially positive profits in these games. My paper adds to the existing body of research and attempts to explain these observations by investigating non-monetary aspects of payoff functions. Since ...

Hydraulic fractures often turn or branch, interacting with preexisting discontinuities in the rock mass (e.g., natural defects). The criteria for fracture penetration deflection are typically based on situ stress, and angle strength of discontinuities. However, hydraulic experiments carbonate rocks (Naoi et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1093/gji/ggaa183), small scale analyses show that deflecte...

We have studied optical properties of interstellar dust around the Orion A molecular cloud to investigate size distribution and composition grains. is one most clouds in solar vicinity ($d \simeq 400\ \rm{pc}$). In this paper, we used near-infrared photometric data. The data were obtained by $BVRI$ bands imaging observations. consisting $JHK_{S}$ taken from 2MASS point source catalog. produced ...

We define a family of symmetric polynomials Gν,λ(z1,…,zn+1,q) indexed by pair dominant integral weights for root system type An. The polynomial Gν,0(z,q) is the specialized Macdonald Pν(z,q,0) and known to be graded character level one Demazure module associated affine Lie algebra slˆn+1. prove that G0,λ(z,q) two Under suitable conditions on (ν,λ) (which apply pairs (ν,0) (0,λ)) we Gν,λ(z,q) Sc...

This paper presents the extent to which combination of extra-atmospheric and hydroclimatic factors can be deciphered record their contribution evolution forecasting Danube discharge (Q) in lower basin. A methods such as wavelet filtering deep learning (DL) constitutes basic method for discriminating external (solar activity through Wolf numbers) that significantly contribute prediction discharg...

Abstract Most studies on wind variability have deepened into the stilling vs. reversal phenomena at global to regional scales, while long-term changes in local-scale winds such as sea-breezes (SB) represent a gap of knowledge climate research. The state-of-the-art suggests hypothetical reinforcement SB coastal stations. We first developed robust automated method for identification days. Then, b...
