Urban and Power Plant NOx Emissions in Sub‐Saharan Africa Inferred From TROPOMI
Abstract Nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions are increasing rapidly in Sub‐Saharan Africa, affecting local air quality. Outside South Africa, most hotspots are relatively small, posing a challenge for traditional top‐down inversions. We tailor an existing top‐down wind rotation and Gaussian plume fit inversion to suit the relatively small NOx hotspots for ...

Multithread Approximation: An OpenMP Constructor
ABSTRACT This study introduces an OpenMP construct designed to simplify and unify the integration of approximate computing techniques into shared‐memory parallel programs. Approximate Computing leverages the inherent error tolerance of many applications to trade computational accuracy for gains in performance and energy efficiency.

Dynamic Debt With Intensity‐Based Models
ABSTRACT This article proposes a dynamic debt model where the face value of debt can change. In particular, our dynamic debt setting allows debt changes ruled by intensity processes that are linked to the firm value through the correlation between the stochastic processes. Analytical solutions are obtained, and we extend the proposed dynamic debt model

N2 fixation is linked to the ability to encroach in African savanna trees
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Encroachment is a globally ubiquitous phenomenon, characterised by increasing indigenous tree densities in savanna and grassland. Encroachment has been attributed to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations fertilising tree growth and shifting the competitive balance ...

Supply chain risk in grain trading: Inventories as real options for shipping grain
Abstract Integrating trading and logistics is an important challenge in commodity trading. Trading and logistics are strategic decisions and are integral to most commodities including grain shipping by rail, in addition to other modes (barges, ocean shipping). There are substantial risks, such as the ordering and placement of rail cars.

Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with

Pricing European and Barrier Options in the Fractional Black-Scholes Market [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to obtain the valuation formulas for European and barrier options if the underlying of the option contract is supposed to be driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than 0.5.
