The Value of Statistical Life: Pursuing the Deadliest Catch [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009 Observed tradeoffs between monetary returns and fatality risk identify estimates of the value of a statistical life (VSL), which inform public policy and quantify preferences for environmental quality, health and safety. To date, few investigations have estimated the VSL associated with tradeoffs between returns from natural resource extraction ...

How to Catch a Falsifier: Comparison of Statistical Detection Methods for Interviewer Falsification.
Public opinion quarterly, 2022 Deviant interviewer behavior is a potential hazard of interviewer-administered surveys, with interviewers fabricating entire interviews as the most severe form. Various statistical methods (e.g., cluster analysis) have been proposed to detect falsifiers. These methods often rely on falsification indicators aiming to measure differences between real and

Statistical Approach on Differential Emission Measure of Coronal Holes using the CATCH Catalog [PDF]
Solar Physics, 2021 AbstractCoronal holes are large-scale structures in the solar atmosphere that feature a reduced temperature and density in comparison to the surrounding quiet Sun and are usually associated with open magnetic fields. We perform a differential emission measure analysis on the 707 non-polar coronal holes in the Collection of Analysis Tools for Coronal ...

, 2022 A concern associated with existing Atlantic bluefin tuna age-based assessments using Virtual Population Analysis (VPA) is that the catch-at-age data inputs are obtained by the cohort-slicing method, which is approximate and might introduce appreciable bias into the results.

Nitrogen, 2021 Catch crops are an effective method for reducing nitrogen (N) leaching in agriculture, but the mineralization of incorporated catch crop residue N is difficult to predict and model. We conducted a five-month incubation experiment using fresh residue from

‘Reported’ versus ‘likely’ fisheries catches of four Mediterranean countries
Scientia Marina, 2014 The fisheries catch statistics that member countries report annually to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations were compared, for the years 1950 to 2010, with ‘reconstructed’, and more likely catch data from the Mediterranean coasts ...

Are narwhals critical for the meat supply in East Greenland?
Arctic ScienceIn East Greenland, the recommendations for the closure of the narwhal (Monodon monoceros) hunt coincide with a pressing demand to continue hunting for meat to supply local communities. By analysing catch statistics and estimating average meat yields, the
