the air temperature trend has been increasing during recent decades, especially in the regions such as iran which is located in dry and semi-dry world belt. in this research we used markov chain to obtain probabilities of heat waves with different continues in kerman province using 20 years daily maximum air temperature data during 1986-2005. we analyzed daily maximum air temperature data of 5 ...

the aim of this study is to introduce a parametric mixture model to analysis the competing-risks data with two types of failure. in mixture context, i t h type of failure is i th component. the baseline failure time for the first and second types of failure are modeled as proportional hazard models according to weibull and gompertz distributions, respectively. the covariates affect on both the ...

atmospheric circulation patterns are responsible for drought and flood occurrences around the globe specifically in moderate mid latitude climates. while some circulation patterns are responsible for wet spells and floods as well, the drought events can be attributed to some other circulation patterns. therefore, identification and distinction of dry/wet producing patterns and the geographical ...
