Validating habitat suitability assessments with post‐translocation animal movement data
Wildlife translocations are essential for restoring species to their native habitats, and species distribution models (SDMs) have proven useful for identifying suitable habitats to guide this process. Validating model predictions with data from individual's post‐translocation, however, is rare due to the frequent lack of monitoring data from ...

Bootstrap Methods for Inference in a SUR model with Autocorrelated Disturbances [PDF]
Although the Parks (1967) estimator for a SUR model with AR disturbances is efficient both asymptotically and in small samples, Kmenta and Gilbert (1970) and more recently Beck and Katz (1995) note that estimated standard errors tend to be biased ...

Bayesian Analysis of a Probit Panel Data Model with Unobserved Individual Heterogeneity and Autocorrelated Errors [PDF]
In this paper, we perform Bayesian analysis of a panel probit model with unobserved individual heterogeneity and serially correlated errors. We augment the data with latent variables and sample the unobserved heterogeneity component as one Gibbs block ...

UK Forecasts of Annual GDP: Their Accuracy and the Information Categories Underlying Their Revisions
ABSTRACT Policy makers are concerned with the accuracy of GDP forecasts and want to understand the reasons for the revision of forecasts. We study these issues by examining forecasts of annual UK GDP growth by a panel of agents, published monthly by HM Treasury. We focus on two main issues: the developing accuracy of the group‐mean forecast as horizons

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 ...

The Case of Fleeting Orders and Flickering Quotes
ABSTRACT The literature controversially discusses the ambiguous motives and driving forces behind quickly cancelled limit orders (fleeting orders), which are characteristic of high‐frequency markets. In particular, manipulative and dysfunctional characteristics are feared. We analyze top‐of‐book fleeting orders—so‐called flickering quotes—and show with

Characteristics of Intense Multi‐Day Wet Spells Over West Africa
The study reveals a significant increase in intense wet spells, particularly in KASS‐D, emphasising the value of dense rain‐gauge networks. Larger‐sized events have grown, while smaller ones declined, boosting 3‐day and 5‐day wet spells' contribution to annual rainfall, with the Guinea Coast showing the highest increase and the Sahel the lowest ...

Widespread Co‐Location of Less Frequent and More Intense Daily Precipitation Over Land
Abstract Under increasingly variable rainfall, trends toward more intense and less frequent daily‐scale precipitation have been identified using regional and global averages. However, it has not been explicitly demonstrated whether and where these trends are co‐located, which is important given their potential impacts on land surface processes.
