Efficiency of Spatial Subsidies Under Information Constraints: A Case Study
ABSTRACT This study compares the efficiency of homogeneous versus spatially heterogeneous subsidies in developing agricultural plans compatible with bird sustainability. Using the plains of Lleida as a case study—where incentives for agricultural intensification threaten a bird community‐we employ a spatially explicit model that simulates crop yields ...

Top-kriging - geostatistics on stream networks [PDF]
We present Top-kriging, or topological kriging, as a method for estimating streamflow-related variables in ungauged catchments. It takes both the area and the nested nature of catchments into account.

In this study we show how, in natural forests, tree heights adapt across environmental gradients as a response to environmental and biotic factors. Awareness of such local adaptations can be encoded into predictive features and leveraged by shallow learning methods to enhance predictions of tree diameter and tree‐level aboveground biomass.

What are the available data on incidence & prevalence prognosis risk factors of severity of sickle cell disease in sub‐Saharan Africa? ABSTRACT Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is highly prevalent in sub‐Saharan Africa. Epidemiological data remain sparse, but regional screening and research initiatives are expanding.

A Guide to Bayesian Optimization in Bioprocess Engineering
ABSTRACT Bayesian optimization has become widely popular across various experimental sciences due to its favorable attributes: it can handle noisy data, perform well with relatively small data sets, and provide adaptive suggestions for sequential experimentation.

Bayesian hierarchical models for analysing the spatial distribution of bioclimatic indices [PDF]
A methodological approach for modelling the spatial distribution of bioclimatic indices is proposed in this paper. The value of the bioclimatic index is modelled with a hierarchical Bayesian model that incorporates both structured and unstructured random

Spatio-temporal variability of erosivity in Mato Grosso, Brazil
The impact of rainfall on surfaces lacking vegetal cover can dissociate soil particles, thereby initiating the erosion process. This is known as rainfall erosivity and is expressed by the R factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation.
