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.

NLP for Climate Policy: Creating a Knowledge Platform for Holistic and Effective Climate Action [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Climate change is a burning issue of our time, with the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13 of the United Nations demanding global climate action. Realizing the urgency, in 2015 in Paris, world leaders signed an agreement committing to taking voluntary action to reduce carbon emissions. However, the scale, magnitude, and climate action processes vary

Tipping elements and climate-economic shocks: Pathways toward integrated assessment
, 2016 The literature on the costs of climate change often draws a link between climatic 'tipping points' and large economic shocks, frequently called 'catastrophes'. The use of the phrase 'tipping points' in this context can be misleading.

European Review, 2013 By predicting a global change of the Earth's climate, scientists are delivering an uncomfortable message. The release of the fourth IPCC report in 2007 has led to a surge of scepticism and criticism of both the science and the scientists. All this has received a lot of press coverage. Here I discuss the roots of climate change scepticism and how it has

Regional analysis of crop and natural vegetation in West Africa based on NDVI metrics [PDF]
, 2014 In West Africa, rainfall variability dynamics are often considered as the major driver of vegetation production. Land use shifts have also to be taken into account when analyzing changes in vegetation production.

Anomalous jumping in a double-well potential [PDF]
, 1999 Noise induced jumping between meta-stable states in a potential depends on the structure of the noise. For an $\alpha$-stable noise, jumping triggered by single extreme events contributes to the transition probability.
