Living Through a Changing Climate: Stress, Trauma, and Gendered Resilience Among Women in Coastal and Northern Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is reshaping everyday life in Ghana through coastal erosion, flooding, erratic rainfall, water scarcity, extreme heat, and agricultural insecurity. This study examines how these changes produce stress, trauma, and gendered resilience among women in Salakope and Choggu Yapalsi, two climate‐vulnerable communities in coastal and ...

Computing a family of probabilistic numbers in terms of probabilistic Stirling numbers of the second kind

Applied Mathematics in Science and Engineering
In this paper, we introduce the probabilistic Bernoulli numbers, Cauchy numbers, and Euler numbers of order α associated with the random variable Y, utilizing the generating function approach.

On the 2-adic order of Stirling numbers of the second kind and their differences [PDF]

Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2009
Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, $d(k)$ and $\nu_2(k)$ denote the number of ones in the binary representation of $k$ and the highest power of two dividing $k$, respectively.

Insights for conservation from the Ecological Knowledge Games project

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental conservation research requires robust methods for collecting large‐scale behavioral data and engaging diverse stakeholders in decision‐making processes. We (Y.P., A.B.D., and N.B.) created EcoKnowGames (Ecological Knowledge Games), a transdisciplinary project that develops knowledge games for conservation science and data ...

Congruences for generalized Bell and Stirling numbers

Duke Mathematical Journal, 1955
The author considers the following generalization of the Bell and Stirling numbers. Let the \(s\) functions \(f_i(x)\) satisfy \[ f'_i(x)=1+\sum_{m=1}^\infty c_{mi}f_i^m(x), \qquad (i=1,2,\dots, s), \] where all \(c_{mi}\) are integers, and let \(F_0(x)=f_0(x)\), \(F_n(x)=F_{n-1}(f_n(x))\) \((n=1,2,\dots)\); then consider the integers \(\sigma(c,r,s)\)

q-analogs of the generalized Stirling and Bell numbers

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2008
Generalized Stirling numbers appear in a natural way as the coefficients of the normal ordering of a word in the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra of bosonic creation and annihilation operators. We introduce a new combinatorial model for the study of the q-analogs of the generalized Stirling numbers.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

New type degenerate Stirling numbers and Bell polynomials

Notes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics, 2022
In this paper, we introduce a new type degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind and their degenerate Bell polynomials, which is different from degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind studied so far. We investigate the explicit formula, recurrence relation and Dobinski-like formula of a new type degenerate Stirling numbers of the second ...
