Abstract Drought indices represent essential tools for monitoring and evaluating drought conditions and evolution. Univariate indices employ the Probability Integral Transform to map data onto the standard Gaussian domain. Extending such a Gaussian normalization procedure to multivariate settings requires the usage of the Kendall distribution function ...

Drought and Fruit and Vegetables Production in California
ABSTRACT California's increasingly frequent and intense droughts are a pressing problem for the state's agriculture and the US food supply. California supplies more than half of all fruit and vegetables produced in the United States. This paper quantifies the severity of the problem by estimating the impacts of the drought on California's fresh fruit ...

Demographic and Structural Variability Modulate Growth Dynamics in European Beech Primary Forests
Climate change is increasing drought and heat stress on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), causing widespread tree vitality losses and growth declines across Europe. Using a large tree ring network from montane primary beech forests, we found that trees of various ages and sizes respond differently to climate warming, leading to contrasting within ...

ABSTRACT This study investigates garnet–clinopyroxene double‐layered coronae in a metagabbronorite from the high‐grade metamorphic Gföhl Unit (Bohemian Massif). The coronae formed at the interfaces between relic magmatic orthopyroxene, still preserved in the cores of the coronae, and the plagioclase‐rich rock matrix.

Evaluation of Croatian Word Embeddings
Croatian is poorly resourced and highly inflected language from Slavic language family. Nowadays, research is focusing mostly on English. We created a new word analogy corpus based on the original English Word2vec word analogy corpus and added some of ...

We propose to search for the neutrino radiative decay by fitting a photon energy spectrum of the cosmic infrared background to a sum of the photon energy spectrum from the neutrino radiative decay and a continuum. By comparing the present cosmic infrared

Face tracking using a hyperbolic catadioptric omnidirectional system [PDF]
In the first part of this paper, we present a brief review on catadioptric omnidirectional systems. The special case of the hyperbolic omnidirectional system is analysed in depth.

Fast Simulation of Vehicles with Non-deformable Tracks
This paper presents a novel technique that allows for both computationally fast and sufficiently plausible simulation of vehicles with non-deformable tracks. The method is based on an effect we have called Contact Surface Motion.
