What shapes climate change perceptions in Africa? A random forest approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Climate change perceptions are fundamental for adaptation and environmental policy support. Although Africa is one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change, little research has focused on how climate change is perceived in the continent. Using random forest methodology, we analyse Afrobarometer data (N = 45,732), joint with climatic data, to ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.As many patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have chronic pain, understanding how to best assess and manage pain in IA is a priority. Comorbid depression is prevalent in adults with IA, affecting 15% to 39% of people. Although pain and depression are thought to be associated in IA, this concept is largely based on cross‐sectional data.

Climate modification directed by control theory [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 Climate modification measures to counteract global warming receive some more new attentions in these years. Most current researches only discuss the impact of these measures to climate, but how to design such a climate regulator is still unknown. This paper shows the control theory could give the systematic direction for climate modification.

A Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment Framework: A Spatial Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Climate change is affecting every known society, especially for small farmers in Low-Income Countries because they depend heavily on rain, seasonality patterns, and known temperature ranges. To build climate change resilient communities among rural farmers, the first step is to understand the impact of climate change on the population.

Certifying the ‘Climate’ in climate bonds
Capital Markets Law Journal, 2018 The market for climate bonds is expanding quickly, but the continued vitality of the market will depend in large part of the quality of the reviews and assurances provided by climate bond verifiers, who assure that the bond proceeds will be used to fund climate-related projects.

Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2018 How does climate-change mitigation affect the aggregate consumption risk borne by future generations? In other words, what is the ‘climate beta’? In this paper we argue using a combination of theory and integrated assessment modelling that the climate beta is positive and close to unity for maturities of up to about one hundred years.

Performance Triggered Adaptive Model Reduction for Soil Moisture Estimation in Precision Irrigation
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate soil moisture information is essential for precise irrigation to enhance water use efficiency. Estimating soil moisture based on limited soil moisture sensors is especially critical for obtaining comprehensive soil moisture information when dealing with large‐scale agricultural fields.

The Sedimentary Origin of Black and White Banded Cherts of the Buck Reef, Barberton, South Africa
Geosciences, 2019 The Buck Reef is a 250−400 m thick sequence of banded black and white (B&W) cherts deposited ca. 3416 Ma ago in a shallow basin. We provide field, petrological and geochemical constraints on the chert-forming process and the origin of the ...
