Translocation of livestock‐raiding lions under specific conditions can mitigate conflict

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Human‐wildlife conflict is a pervasive threat that imperils many carnivore species worldwide, and although translocation is often used as a conflict mitigation strategy, it is widely regarded as ineffective. Here, we demonstrate that careful selection of suitable release sites can improve outcomes, as 80% of stock‐raiding lion translocations in ...

Multivariate Statistical Process Control Charts: An Overview [PDF]

In this paper we discuss the basic procedures for the implementation of multivariate statistical process control via control charting. Furthermore, we review multivariate extensions for all kinds of univariate control charts, such as multivariate ...

Novel Discrete Chris–Jerry Distribution: Properties, Integer Autoregressive Process, and Applications

Journal of Probability and Statistics
A unique one-parameter discrete distribution, known as the Poisson Two-Sum Chris–Jerry distribution, is proposed in this study. The structural properties of the contemporary distribution, such as index of dispersion, moments, and probability-generating ...

Fusion Estimation from Multisensor Observations with Multiplicative Noises and Correlated Random Delays in Transmission

Mathematics, 2017
In this paper, the information fusion estimation problem is investigated for a class of multisensor linear systems affected by different kinds of stochastic uncertainties, using both the distributed and the centralized fusion methodologies. It is assumed

The Great Dividing Range as a driver of genetic divergence in a low‐dispersing dragonfly

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Population genomic analyses revealed low genetic differentiation and no discrete population structure across the Great Dividing Range, indicating widespread gene flow in Synthemis eustalacta. Genetic divergence was associated with environmental gradients, elevation and landscape resistance rather than geographic distance, supporting isolation by ...

The effect of Phase I sample size on the run length performance of control charts for autocorrelated data [PDF]

, 2008
Traditional control charts assume independence of observations obtained from the monitored process. However, if the observations are autocorrelated, these charts often do not perform as intended by the design requirements.

The robustness of multi-echelon service models under autocorrelated demands [PDF]

, 1993
A common assumption underlying the development of multi-echelon service models is that successive demands are independent. In this paper we study the robustness of two models, developed for a two-echelon serial inventory network, when the demand process ...

Accounting for skill in trend, variability, and autocorrelation facilitates better multi-model projections: Application to the AMOC and temperature time series.

PLoS ONE, 2019
We present a novel quasi-Bayesian method to weight multiple dynamical models by their skill at capturing both potentially non-linear trends and first-order autocorrelated variability of the underlying process, and to make weighted probabilistic ...

Speculation in the United Kingdom, 1785‒2019

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Speculation has long been thought to have significant economic effects, but it is difficult to measure, making it challenging to examine these effects empirically. In this paper we measure speculation in the United Kingdom since 1785 by using business and financial reporting in The Times newspaper.
