Predicting spring barley yield from variety-specific yield potential, disease resistance and straw length, and from environment-specific disease loads and weed pressure [PDF]
For low-input crop production, well-characterised varieties increase the possibilities of managing diseases and weeds. This analysis aims at developing a framework for analyzing grain yield using external varietal information about disease resistance ...

Genetic and Environmental Contributions to the Covariation Between Cardiometabolic Traits [PDF]
Background The variation and covariation for many cardiometabolic traits have been decomposed into genetic and environmental fractions, by using twin or single‐nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP ) models.

Predicting soil chemical properties such as soil organic carbon (SOC) and available phosphorus (Ava-P) content is critical in areas where different land uses exist. The distribution of SOC and Ava-P is influenced by both natural and anthropogenic factors.

A comparison of statistical and machine learning methods for creating national daily maps of ambient PM$_{2.5}$ concentration [PDF]
A typical problem in air pollution epidemiology is exposure assessment for individuals for which health data are available. Due to the sparsity of monitoring sites and the limited temporal frequency with which measurements of air pollutants ...

Bayesian logistic regression for presence-only data [PDF]
Presence-only data are referred to situations in which a censoring mechanism acts on a binary response which can be partially observed only with respect to one outcome, usually denoting the \textit{presence} of an attribute of interest. A typical example

Weak Environmental Controls of Tropical Forest Canopy Height in the Guiana Shield
Canopy height is a key variable in tropical forest functioning and for regional carbon inventories. We investigate the spatial structure of the canopy height of a tropical forest, its relationship with environmental physical covariates, and the ...

Full Open Population Capture-Recapture Models with Individual Covariates [PDF]
Traditional analyses of capture-recapture data are based on likelihood functions that explicitly integrate out all missing data. We use a complete data likelihood (CDL) to show how a wide range of capture-recapture models can be easily fitted using ...

SURVEILLANCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL DOSE RATE WITH THE COVARIANCE MATRIX
Abstract The objective of this study is the operational verification of an environmental dose rate monitoring network composed by several sensors. The verification of the study has been tested on the CIEMAT’s Radiological Network, establishing a records quality assurance of the detectors using the covariance matrix and the eigenvalues ...

ANALYSIS OF CHARACTER DIVERGENCE ALONG ENVIRONMENTAL GRADIENTS AND OTHER COVARIATES [PDF]
Character displacement is typically identified by comparing phenotypic differences in sympatry and allopatry. Recently, however, Goldberg and Lande (2006) pointed out that when phenotypic characters vary along an environmental gradient, the standard approach may fail to identify sympatric character divergence.
